The W0nal'S Home Mission Society

The Woman's Missionary Council of
the M. E. church, South, was held at
st. Johns church. St. Louis, Mo-, April
19, 1911.
This body was composed of officers Of
officers of the council and women man
ayers of the Board of Missions, which
numbered in all nineteen. the co1re-
spending secretaries of the Home and
Foreign Conference Societies of the M.
E. church, South, of whom there are
II. Twenty deaconesses were conse-
Grated, z city missionaries and Is for
eign missionaries were set apart for
shrvice during the session.
The four vice vice-president' of the
WomanIs Missionary Council are as fol-
lows: First vice-p~esident, Mrs. J. E.
Leith of st. Louis, who has charge Of
the childrens' work; second vice-presi-

MrsSJ. w. Perry. Alabama street, st.

Mrs. Leith and Mrs. Trawick were
elected to succeed Mrs. John r. Mel
son, and Mrs. H. N. McTyeire, who re-
signed.
The Woman's Home Mission Society
is succeeding we'll with the different
phases of work it has undertaken. A
great work is being done at Vashti In
dustrial Shool, Thomasville. Ga. Ap-
plications for scholarships are numer-
week. Besides the industrial training,
the girls are given religious instruc-
tions.
The Ann Browder Home at Dallas,
Texas, is also doing well. Last year
fifty-one girls leaving that school have
made fine record.
At the Executive Committees meet
ing, held at Nashville in January. it
was decided that there wonld be no
change along the line of parsonage do
nations, but auxiliaries will be allowed
to make donations just as in the past.
All Methodist will be interested in
the meeting of the Hospital Committee
in Memphis. The idea of this proposed
hospital originated in the w H. M. So
ciety of the North Mississippi Confer
ence nearly nine years ago. The money
has been in the conference treasury for
a number of years and was paid over
to Mr.. John R. Pepper last month. The
amount was $120.61.

have been but one question before
them-that of ability-hence an open
ballot.
Voter says nobody knew, or pretend
ed to know anything of the corruption
and bribery bllt the shameless Bilbo.
And a jury, one-half of whom were
Vardaman men, said that his charge
against Dulany was not true.
As to the bribery and corruption said
to have been practiced in the secret
caucus, no one knows better than those
present and those who participated.
But according to the old saving, where
there is big smoke there is certain to
be fire.
In regard to the Dulany trial, it re-
minds me of decision rendered by the
president of boys debating society.
The rule of the society was to invite
the oldest man present to act as presi-
dent. The oldest man present had
never been in a meeting of that kind
before and knew nothing of parliament
tary rules. One of the debaters ad-
dressed the president, introduced the
subjects of debates and made quite an
exciting talk and closed by stating that
his opponent would discuss the other
side of the question and perhaps would
endeavor to change him to his side OF
the subject. When his opponent rose
and addressed the president, the presi-
dent said: Y had as we'll set down;
the case is already decided. The Delany
trial was a, foregone conclusion, and l
do not suppose any person expected
conviction, as it was entirely a one
sided, farcical trial.

Mr.. J. w. Walker returned

had gone to dispose Of a drove of
So fine beef cattle. They ranged
from two and half to four years
old, and were in the very best con-
dition, running from 1000 to Is
hundred pounds per head. A lot
of As averaged II hundred pounds
each and sold at the very top
notch of the market. They brought
from a quarter to half a cent more
than the usual run in the market.
Many sellers and buyers exam
ined this lot of cattle and could
hardly believe they were Missis

vertisement for our section and

A Birmingham Age Herald's s
representative has been down in
Pickens county, Ala, visiting the
splendid black land farms of one
of Aberdeen's popular sons-in- law,
DR.. T. H. G. Cook, and he was
charmed with all he saw, particu
larly his alfalfa fields, which after
being grazed freely last season by
mules, cattle, hogs and turkeys,
yielded an actual net profit on
sales of $23.5 per acre. The doc
tor finds that turkeys want no
other attention if they are given
access to a patch of alfalfa. They
lay and hatch among the plants
and then fatten for the market on
the foliage. DR.. Cook cannot sup
ply the demand created for his al
falfa fed turkeys. Here in Mon
roe county we realize that the al
falfa field is the greatest of hog
pastures, but the turkey feature
is a new idea that our folks will
certainly accept. Aberdeen Ex

The widest statement yet made
by Gov. Vardaman in his cam
paign was at Ellisville last week.
He said he had Williams beat for
the senate four years agQ} but a
twist of the wrist changed the re-
suit. Now upon what does the
governor base this assertion? If
there was ever in Mississippi a
piece of political machinery COM
pletely dominated by one man, it
was that campaign. 1t was run
by Vardaman, for Vardaman and
in the interest of Vardaman. It
has never been denied that in sew
eral counties Vardaman received
votes by telephone, and that in
one county the returns were so
completely twisted for him they
never sent to Secretary of State
Power for final verifcatiOn. The
Herald's advice to Gov. Varda
man would be to let that cam
paign alone, for if the truth is
ever known about it, and true re-
turns from all the counties shown,
