BRINGS CRIMSON FLUSH 70 OUR CHEEK.

Our old friend ]. ]. Chambers is
back in the newspaper business. We
CLEAN this from copy OF the Tisho-
mingo County News received, which
proves to be a reorg3nized successor
to the Paragraph of Iuka, Miss.
Mr.. Chambers is one of the owners
and can be depended upon to deliv-
er his part of the goods. Once fell
low gets under the spell of newspa-
pe?dom its hard to pull out and stay
out. Chambers has HE'D back to the
charm of paper, pen and ink and as
he is an old war horse will probably
die with the harness on. Heres our
good wishes to his venture. Greene
County Herald.
Thank you Brother Faulk for your
kind wishes, shall do my best to-
ward delivering the goods. ] often
think Of the many pleasant days |
spent in the Herald office and those
associated with it. The Greene Coun-
ty Herald is one of the best weeklies
published in Southeast Mississippi.
The editor James Faulk is a gen
tle.lan in every sense of the word
and has my best wishes through flu
ture life. -Tishomingo Co. News.

is deserved. Yet if divided press
could achieve so much what might
not be done by press acting in uni
ty?
1t is essen tial that the editor be a
practical business man, but it is just
as essentia! that he be an ideaIist. A
combination of these two makes the
successful and influential newspaper
The editor must stand for worthy
things in common sense way. This
is peculiarly true of the country edi-
tor. 1t is his opportunity to be a
leader for the right, power for
truth and for public good Today il
can be said, as never before, that the
nress of the nation, and especially
that part of it known as the country
press, must lead 1t and if need arises
must save it.

One Kind Of Man.

Courtesy to women, cd and young
should be a part of every body s home
training. Without it he is likely to
be boorish and selfish; and a rude
overbearing brother and son is in
danger of developing into an exact
ing, discourteous husband. He is
likely to belong to the class of bows
who come into the house and say to
their sisters:
Here, Mary, you We got the chair
l always like to sit in, and Katie has
the paper [ want Lei me have them.
He receives the chair and paper
without a work of thanks, and then
says:
There's a button off my overcoat
aud L want one of you girls to put il
on before morning, Mary, run and
get my slippers.
His hat, gloves and overcoat have
been thrown down in different parts
~
OF the room for his mother or sisters
to pick up and put a way. His moth
er comes into the room and he saws.
Mother isn't supper most ready?
| am half starved!'
1t will be ready in few minutes
his mother replies.
well | wish you'd hurry up."
AT the table he is served first and
always has the best of everything, a
course well calculated to foster his
selhshness and autocratic tendencies.
In his own home he is sort of de-
spot. He feels that his personal com
fort should be the chief and aim of
his wife's life. A delayed dinner
brings on an acute attack of unfor-
giveable offense, and missing but
ton that disagreeable mental disord-
er called sulks.
He is likely to be one of the men
who keep their seats while ladies
stand in the horse cars. argueinp
while he does so that women have
just as much right to stand as men,. :"
Obtrusive discourtesy of this kind
nearly always has its origin in the
early home lite OF the man who mani
tests it.

When Women Should Marry.

Probably the best time for the
average woman to marry would be
any age between twenty-fou and
thirty-fve. 1t is not said that no
woman should marry earlier or later
than either of these ages; but youth
and health and vigor are ordinarily
at their highest perfection between
these two periods. Early marriages
ere seldom desirable for girls and
that for many reasons. The brain is
immature, The reason is feeble and
the character is Uniformed. The con :
sideration which should prompt a
girl to marry at seventeen would IN
many cases have little weight with
her at twenty-four. At seventeen
she is child, at twenty-four wo-
man.
Where girl has intelligent par
ents, the seven years between seven
teen and twenty-four are the period
when mind and body are most ar,en-
able to wise discipline and best repay
the thought and toll devoted to their
development. Before sevent teen few
girls have learned to understand
what life is, what duty is. They can
not value what is best either in the
fathers wisdom or in the mothers
tenderness. When married at the
childish period they are like young
recruits taken fresh from the farm
and TIE workshop and hurried off to
d long campaign without amy period
of preliminary drill and training or
like a schoolboy removed from school
to curacy without being sent to the
university or to a theological hall.
Who can help grievlng over a child
wife, especially if she have children
and husband who is an experienced
and possibly eXActing boy man. The
ardor of his love soon cOols the Wis.
lonary bliss of her poetic, lu..., n...
ton vanishes like the summer mist:
there is nothing left but disappoint-
ment and wonder that what promis-
ed to be 50 beautiful and long day
should be clouded almost before sun
rise.

C0MMENDS OUR FORESIGHT.
r. +. RHINEHART

Aberdeen Examiner.
The Greene County Herald, one OF
the clearest headed of the Vardaman
sheets in the State, was never de-
luded by the Bilbo craze that turned
the heads of many. 1t says:
"Sihce the Dulaney trial. the Hat
tiesburg News says of the Dulaney-
Bllbo bribery scandal, that it was a
dirty mess and proceeds to wash its
hands of it. The Herald ioresaw
that this was so when Bilbo first
launched on his campaign, and we
declined to take any stock in it, not
deeming it essential to Vardaman s
interests to fellowship with a man
whom we believe to be corrupt as we
did Blbo. We said so at the time
and have had no reason since to re-
greet our decision. In fact subsequent
history has but confirmed that we
read tue situation correctly at the
start. "

EDITORIAL

In glancing over our exchanges
from up in that part of the state we
notice that our excellent friend 6.
Joe Owen, of New Albany, is Offering
as Represen tative from Union Coun
ty He is the present Senator from
the district composed OF Union and
Tippah County, but owing to the
rule of rotation observed up there,
he stands aside this time, choosing
10 offer for a berth IN the Lower
House of our Legislature. Joe Owen
is man of strict integrity. yea a
man of admirable character, ever te-
nacious for what he considers right.
and one of the few men in public life
in our state who is not ashamed to
consult his Maker before arriving at
conclusions, We expect to res.d of
his domination this Summer and
hasten to congratulate Solons Owen
In advance. He is a cousin of our
Nat Owen.

Negro Needs Informed Negro Teachers


Brookhaven Leader.
The hope of Southern agriculture
les in greater skill-more technical
knowledge-on the part of the tilers
OF the soil. This is true in its appl-
cation to both white and black. Ne
gro teachers should teach negroes.
1t is said that after a Farmers In
Stltute held at Covington, Ca, for
negroes by negro, 40 tenant farm
ers, cultivated 40 acres and raised
~ bales of cotton, while the other 40
grown under the usual conditions.
produced II bales, The negro has
been steadily doing poorer farming;
impoverishing land and wasting fer
tility. There is hope even to this
black side of the situation. Let the
informed negro go out to teach his
race. They will listen to him where
they would not to white man.

No fair minded man in the state be-

why he would want q pass,
The fact is Hon. 7. NJ. Henry and

the entire matter. The attempt to
injure Gov. Vardaman' S character
will rebound to his good and to his
assaiants utter route.
Gov. Vardaman could do a number
of illegal and dirty things and then
have record far above the large
majority of his slanderers. These

Does Not Believe In Socialism.

Enterprise Times.
We do not believe in it, simply be.
cause we think 1t defeats it's own
purpose. Often we hear some expo
nent of this propaganda expatiate on
the evils OF the day both social and
political, all of which they assert
would vanish like morning mist be-
fore the sun, under a socialistic regi-
me. No one will deny that there
are many conditions that could be
bettered, but would socialism do 1t?
How? If the government controlled
everything surely there would have
to be men to run the government
and in their hands would be absolute
power. What assurance would there
be that the government" would dc
these things?

Prohibition Is Not Failing.

Coast Beacon.
All the talk of prohibition failing
to prohibit is rot, for while it is true
that in many places the Illicit sale OF
intoxicating liquors is carried on de
tiantly to greater o. less extent, the
numerous raids, indictments ana con-
victions reported from all parts of
the state lately go to prove that the
people are elccting officers not in
sympathy with the vlolators and
that it is being made more and more
difficult each day for these law break
ers to exist. In many counties they
have been driven out almost entire
Iy, while in others The heavy fines
ard long terms of Imprisonment are
having good results.

Mize Outlook.
Well, we don't hear much good
roads talk these days; do we? It's
about like this, since they are our
roads and our teams they are killing
and our wagons they are tearing up
no one is going to come to US and
try to force US to build good roads;
but it might be a great deal better
for US in the long run if someone
would. The future never before ap-
peared so bright for Smith, County
farmers and It's just up to us to
make it more SO. Road building was
considered an essential and material
Improvement nearly thirty centuries
ago, and yet it does not seem to have
made its impressions on us yet. Eel
lows, it's money in your pockets to
build good roads.

Mississippi has progressive press,
but like every other set, among ii
can be found some who retard the
general movement of the fraternity
upward and onward by their peculiar
holdba..k movements. We live in an
age when the men who move in the
front ranks of society have found
that it noways dilutes thai given off
by themselves which is the real
spark of originality-to give proper
credence, where direct appropriation
is made of what other men have al
ready or are presently contributing
to the sum of human knowledge. Its
the bounden duty,-in fact one of the
highest functions of a vigorously edi-
ted newspaper to comment upon
passing events, as much so as the
historian to philosophize upon the
great human dramas which it is his
Office to bring to the mind of his
readers. One of the alacks which
impresses this writer, as we go over
our exchanges from week to week, is
the disposition on the part of quite
bunch of the brethren of the quill
to seldom if ever directly give credit
for good idea advanced. If some
who neglect this important courtesy
were to start suddenly to trying it
we assume they would turn black in
the face with huge choke. That is
not true of lots of the editorial boys,
however, and we are glad of it.
Brethren one and all, lets be more
fraternal in this as in other respects,
though the heat waves of partisan
politics may toss and roll as doth the
tlreless pillows of the great open
seas.
