Jackson, Miss, Jan. 5.-Simultan-

address the Mississippi legislature
comes the announcement that a con-
current resolution will be offered at
this session seeking to amend the
state constitution by inserting the
initiative, referendum and recall fea-

The measure, when presented, will
probably repose in the committee

shown whether the legislature is will.

never heard of it before, or, if they

Boys and Girls Learn
Useful Lore IN School

The last meeting of the Forrest

voted to perfecting the plans of the
work which Miss Powell had begun.
AS a result OF this, many boys and
girls throughout the county have join
ed hands in an effort to excel their
competitors. their fathers, in the
growing of farm crops. The boys are
earnestly trying to grow corn and
other grain crops according to the
scientific methods suggested by the
Department of Agriculture. The girls
are engaged in poultry raising and to-
mato growing. Both boys and girls
are instructed by the government
agents. The County Commissioned
of Agriculture kindly offers his help,
County Director of Improvement
work is engaged in the work, and one
hundred children are organized to
further agricultural education in For

1t goes as fact that every teacher
and other school officer is. by his pu-
sition of responsibility, heartily in
sympathy with bettering home condl.
tions in Mississippi. In the teachers
meeting held few days ago in Hat
tiesburg several matters were
brought up for consideration, all bear
ing directly on the educational well
fare of this county. One was the fact
that before long the examination
subject matter requisite for a first
grade certificate would be raised.
This will vitally affect the scholar
ship of the teachers themselves and

solutely certain that the prohibition
lists intend to wage a war of aggres-
sion. They not only intend to put
quietus on any legislation that may
be proposed by the liquor interests
but are determined to secure the pas
sage of a law making liquor selling a
felony, and to adopt other drastic
steps to put the blind tigers out of
business.
Some of the prohibition leaders,
among them being Rev G. w. Eichel-
berger, field secretary of the Anti
Saloon league, assert that the saloon
lists have a plan to submit the ques-
ton of statewide prohibition to a
vote of the people, and will appeal to
the lawmakers on the theory that
such questions should be decided by
the people, and not by the legislature.
They will oppose the passage of such
bill, if presented, but so far as can
be ascertained at this juncture the
liquor interests have not framed such
a measure for consideration by the
Legislature.

has it's bearing in the school room.
Another important matter was that
of consolidation. 1t simply means
that an effort is being made to unite
all the small schools in order to use
to better advantage the means the
state has provided for bringing the
school in vital touch with home condi-
tions. 1t means that the one teacher,
overcrowded school must take it's
place in history and leave room for
the well graded, modern method, and
comfortably furnished school to serve
the present generation. It means
that from two to five well trained
teachers will be in charge of every
school, a school in which the health
morals and minds of children will be
better taken care of, than ever be-
fore. The matter of providing prizes
for the contestants in club work was
considered. The government offers
cash prizes The state through the
Board of Supervisors, provide prizes
and private offers come in by the
numbers. Let us cheer once for the
encouragement Forrest county gets
from the public in behalf of her
school improvement work; cheer
twice for that from business houses
and corporations, cheer three times
for that from educators and school
officers, cheer six times for that from
parents and school patrons, and doz
en- times for that from the children

day in the senate, and softened the
affront to some extent by offering a
resolution that $50 copies of the mes
