The New Pastor at Methodist Church

The Methodist people never had a
pastor that so quickly found favor with
his congregation as Rev. j. A. Hall.
He was dearly beloved at Winona, re-
CARELESS of UNCONVENTIONAL lines. His
d~iscourses are beautiful, poetic and ap
peal to the most aesthetic taste. There
is a directness and fire about them
that ELECTS the interest of the most care
less and Indifferent. One cannot listen
to Mr.. Hall without being prompted to
take an inventory Of his life and deeds
and to PROFOUND to himself the query,
What is my latitude and longitude
spirituality" There is an uplift and
ms piration about his sermons that
quickens the noblest aims and purposes.

GRENADA BANK DIRECTORS MEET.
Are Entertained at Home of J. I. Thomas and Later
in Directors Room.
The Most Largely Attended Social Function Ever Given in Grenada.

its demands and elegance more simple,
yet charming in its display, than IN
this hospitable home on this long
aforementioned occasion. While the
hostess had the invaluable aid n sug-
gestions of good neighbors and obllg-
ing friends, yet her fortuitous Judg-.
ment and happy disposition displayed
itself in every feature of the evening S
well executed entertainment.
Saxby's orchestra from Memphis was
conveniently stationed where the
sounds from four different instruments
soothed the mind and waited the
thoughts to Elysian fields of hope and
joy.
From the home, by invitation, a
large number of the guests repaired TO
the directors o over the bank,
where, at 10 O'Clock, began the rendl-
ton of "A Clever Encounter, by Mrs.
J.. C. Armstrong of Water Valley and
Miss Carolyn Whitson of the Grenada
public school faculty. This fairly en-
tranced an audience that filled n
room for fifty minutes, at the con-
clusion of which it was announced that
those who delighted in the ~terpsicho-
rear art were hidden to felicitate
themselves tor the hours to come.
There could scarcely be a more ideal
place for such an event. Beautifully
polished floors, rich decorations and
lovely flowers, all helped to charm the
mind and render it captive for the
evening. A gorgeous collection of
roses, upon which was written,
''Twenty-first Annual Meeting of Di-
rectors," adorned an easel in the room.
Those who did not care for an ION with
the dance" retired. The light fantas.
tic toe was tripped until about 3 O.
clock a. m. Saxby's orchestra fur
nished the music for the dance also.
Space forbids mention in detail of
the visitors. They were here from
many places. They were fulsome in
their praises of the evenings enter
tainment. Those who had not before
seen the Grenada Bank building and
apartments, pronounced it one of the
most perfect pieces of architecture
they had eve seen. .
The branch banks, each, had several
representatives. Present from Varda-
man, three; from Calhoun City, seven;
from Charleston, eight; McCool, nine;

are PLEASED WITH RALLY
Suffrage Meeting on Monday Night
Well Attended

Mrs. Mary Wright Sewell gave an
extremely interesting and instructive
lecture at the Opera house, Monday
night, on the subject 1.-THE American
Peerage. " Ia her address she brought
ont a good many points not usually
touched upon. She first lead the audi
ence back to old colonial days, showing
that men themselves did not always en-
Joy the right of franchise, and how
step by step the restrictions of prop
come. The first public schools were
opened only for boys, and girls were
not admitted for years, until widows
with daughter only, feeling the injus-
tice o. taxation without representation,
demanded education for them. The
same arguments were used then, that
are brought up now against equal suf-
frage. The women have slowly and
persistently worked their way into high
schools and colleges, until at the pres
ent time all occupations open to men
accept women. Those who have come
to America from foreign lands, came
in pursuit of larger liberties, but now
they will have to return to the father
land if they wish greater liberty, for
many European countries now enjoy
equal suffrage.
We now have six states giving wom-
en- the right to vote: Wyoming, Utah,
Idaho, California, Washington and Col
orado, and Wisconsin with its unrival-
ed resources would do well to follow
their example.
The national peerage can never be
maintained under present conditions, as
the equal suffrage states have so much
more influence through thrir double
vote Furthermore there car be no
family peersge, for in cases where the
families are all. daughters there can be
only one vote, while in family of boys
there would be several. So we can
never have the true American peerage
until all have the equal right of suf-
frage. E. N.

Because | have made record of 100

words for me, others. not yet acquaint-

asking: "Why does this man need to
travel to these smaller towns? Why
don't he stay in La Crosse If he is as
good as reported?'
THERE is A REASON: Six years ago
closed an office in Marshfield, Wiscou-
sin, where was doing a splendid bust
ness, because | was obliged to be away
from it weeks at time in promoting
the coupon ballot, of which | am the
orr ginator, before state legislatures.

expense of a mail train here and the
fact that all first-class mail must be
looked through on its arrivals as moth
ing, but no attempt must be made to
permit the people fifteen minutes to
have their letters handed to them,
when the local postmaster and his help
ers are perfectly willing to do so.

that he is strictly honest in all his deal
ings, is a man of good moral habits,
and is a gentleman who will not stoop
to do a mean trick to living soul.

county and party in past years. Here's
hoping you succeed and we speak for
the whole town in this.
