Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, Dec. 19.-Wheat: The mar

the greater part of the session, but
weakening after moo with an appar-
covered very freely on yesterdays ad-
vance. Today's reaction was quite in
order after the sharp rally of yester-
day and some further recession Is not
unlikely. However, we look for a
rather steady market.
COrn-The market showed an easier
tone for the December delivery shorts
having covered freely in that month on
the rally of yesterday. We are in
Clfned to look for a narrow market.
Uats-The market showed an easier
tone and fluctuations were again with

Successful Church Workers,

The ladies Of the Presbyterian
church of Dilworth enjoyed a very
liberal patronage at the bazaar and
supper given in the old school build
ing Tuesday night. About $S5 was
handed over to the treasurer Of the
aid society for church purposes. A
c~ommendable feature of the enterprise
was the tasteful decoration of the
interior of the building which made
it very attractive to prospective buy
ers and afforded the ladies in charge
of the booths to make displays of
the choice and varied stock of fancy
work there was offered for. sale and
for which there was a great demand.

WHAT Is CLASSIFICATION
OF BUFFALO MEAT

Kansas City. Mo-, Dec. 19.-The
once mighty buffalo now is neith-
er game nor domestic beef. Just
what he is will be determined by
the government authorities in
Washington as the result of a re-
quest for such a decision made by
a livestock agent here today.
The case under consideration is
the shipment of seven buffalo from
the ranch of c. M. (Buffalo) Jones
near Las Vegas, N. M, to a local
packing house for slaughter. Gov
eminent authorities at the pack
ing house said the buffalo could
not be inspected by them as they
were not domestic beef animals.
The animals cannot be slaughtered
without the governments inspec-
ton stamp.

Nearest Way to a Mans Heart.

Some writer has said "the nearest
way to a mans heart is down his
throat" Whether this be true or not,
it is nevertheless fact that the dis
play of cakes and other things from
McCaslin's store and bakery in the la
dies department at the fair was enough
not only to tempt the appetites of all
who saw it, but was certainly calcula;
ted to soften and soothe the heart. The
display covered a space Of 80 square
feet and was most tastefully arranged.
There were thirty different kinds OF
cakes on exhibition, besides other deli
cious things in the culinary line, all OF
which was under the care of the popu-
lar sister of the proprietor, Miss Will
lie. The corner occupied by this dis
play added much to the attractiveness
and the beauty of the woman's build
ing.

Mrs. Patterson Dies in jackson.

Grenada was shocked to learn on
Wednesday morning that Mrs. V. R.
Patterson, the wife of the cashier of
the Grenaea Bank, had died the night
before in Jackson, where she had been
carried more than a week before to a
sanitorium. 1t was thought the day
before that she was much better. She
had been seriously i'll for several weeks
and had the very best care and atten-
tion from the first; yet she grew grad
ually worse until day or two before
her death, when she seemed so much
better that Mr.. Patterson left her to
come home and was here when the end
came. Shh was truly good woman
and devoted wife and mother. She
was prepared for the summons, and
may the richness of her life be as a
beacon light to her loved ones who are
left behind. To the bereft husband
and the three-year old little boy, the
sincerest sympathy of the community
is extended. Her remains reached

in the auditorium of the public school.
They will present the following Thanks
giving program:
Reading-subject, Teaching children
to be thankful. Questions to be dis
cussed: What can the mother do to
teach the children the real significance
of Thanksgiving? How is the danger
of children looking forward to Thanks
giving merely as day of feasting and
selfish enjoyment, to be guarded
against? How can special features OF
Thanksgiving day be emphasized in the
home? What plan do you follow for
giving some person outside your home
reason for thankfulness on this day! Is
celebrating Thanksgiving in the home
sufficient What are the benefits OF
attending Thanksgiving services in the
church or public Thanksgiving! AS
Thanksgiving is really national reli-
pious festival, how are the children s
religious thoughts to be directed to-
ward giving thanks as a people!

Difference In StatmentS.

Sentinel readers will recall that un-
der the caption, IA Correction" there
appeared in these columns last week an
item referring to certain article that
had previously appeared regarding an
alleged piece of detective work at Eli
oft. The Sentinel's informant about
the detective" work was Mrs. w. H.
Rolling, who seems to have taken Of
fense that Mr.. Claud Heath had asked
to have his name disassociated from the
item that first appeared. She asserts
most positively that Mr.. Heath was
there. This much is given in justice to
her. This paper has no interest in the
world in the matter and shall have
nothing further to say about it. If
there is issue of veracity between cer-
tain citizens of Elliott, they will have
to settle that between themselves.

CITY VS.. COUNTRY.
misunderstanding Between the Two
Disappearing and Are Being
Drawn Closer Together.

To the officers and members of the
Farmers Union:
Unrest is back of every intellectual
or political crusade or tendency in this
country today.
One need not be republican, dem
ocrat, socialist, bull moose or a nem-
Der of any other party to realize that
fact.
Look about you and with very few
exceptions you will see few people who
are satisfied with existing con litions.
One party may diagnose the trouble in
its own particular way, and prescribe
its own particular remedy. Another
party may take All exactly opposite
course.
But the man in the city or the coun-
try, if he reads and thinks and observes
even little, realizes that slowly, but
irresistibly, there is approaching re-
adjustment in America and in this re-
adjustment the main battle cry will be
more equal distribution of the bur-
dens and the rewards, of the penalties
and the premiums.
The great majority of Americans are
discontented with the status as it now
is, and the new spirit that is breathing
over the face of the waters of thought
and sentiment is the genuine and not
the fake, brotherhood of man or at
least condition nearer approXinating
it than we have seen vet in this nation-
In that day of change, of evolution,
that is coming, it is to the interest of
both town and country to stand IS one.
In the final analysis we are all Ameri-
cans.
1t is true that few prey up:n town
and country alike. 1t is against the
interest of this few to Encourage a
thorough understanding between town
and country.
We must remember, in considering
this fact, that the city man CT today
was the country man of yesterday; that
the country man of today is likely to
be the city man of tomorroy: that
both are of the same blood, with the
same ties and the identical ultimate in
terest.
| am glad, as every thinking man
should be glad, that the era of ,nisun-
derstanding between city and country
is disappearing. Progress in shat di-
rection means that in the arduJus and
delicate solution of the problems that
beset our common nation, town and
country will be arrayed together and
battling inteligently for human lights.

BOdtright.CIark.
Union City, Georgia.

A wedding of interest to many in this
county took place in Van Buren,. Ark,
Oct. 20, when Percy E. Boatright of
that place and Miss Mamie Clark of
Youngs, Miss, were married.
Miss Clark has been visiting her un-
Gle, Rev. J. o. Hill, of Carlisle, Ark.
since the first of September. A week
before the marriage she was called to
the bedside of the groom's sister. Miss
Jessie Boatright. While in Fort Smith.
where Miss Boatright had gone to the
hospital for an operation, the young
people decided to get married.
At the request of the sick girl, the
marriage ceremony was performed in
her room at st. Edwards Infirmary,
Rev. Joseph Cornell officiating. The
sick girl, another of the groom's sis
ters and the doctor were all the wit
nesses.
This surprise marriage is the climax
of pretty romance beginning before
either of the contracting parties had
reached their majority.
Miss Clark was reared at Youngs, in
the eastern part of this county, and
and was very popular both in this and
adjoining counties. The groom is q
prominent business man of Van Buren,
and young man of fine christian char
acter. Their many friends wish for
them happy journey through life.
