Missionary Societies Active.

Missionary Societies Active.
On last Saturday, especially, and
several other days during the week,
the Woman's Missionary Societies
of the association held number of
meetings at the churches and homes
of the various sections. The one
which the writer attended was a
parlor meeting of the Rehoboth So
ciety at the pretty and hospitable
country hon of Mr.. and Mrs. Gus
Wash. Having been invited to par
take of the midday meal, as we'll as
attend the meeting of the society,
we reached our friends home in
ample time, aaand sswere delighted at
the kind reception Of our host and
hostess, and to see their four very
pretty and interesting children,
Ruth, William, Alline and Gladys,
all under seven.
After a delightful dinner, there
was but a short period of time be-
fore the buggies began to arrive,
bearing within large numbers OF In
terested friends to attend the mis-
sion Society. Among the first to ar
rive were Rev. and Mrs. E.. I.
Snuggs and Mrs. j. T. littlejohn,
the first two, having become well
known in our county as missionaries
of Canton, China, and being asso-
ciated in that city with our mission
aries Mr.. and Mrs. Lake. These
friends have visited number Of
places in our county and we believe
have helped the work materially by
the information they have brought,
and the real spirit of missions which
they manifest. These house to house
gatherings among the women of our
country churches are very produc-
tive of good, and it has a splendid
social as we'll as religious feature.
On this occasion a large number Of
the Rehoboth society were present,
as we'll IS number of gentlemen,
and the meeting was led by Miss
Mabelle Strom, who has succeed ed
Miss Carrie Burk halter so long the
noble and efficient leader of the
Rehoboth society. Mr.. and Mrs.
Snuggs made very effective talks,a
at the close of the meeting delight.
full refreshments were served.
The opening of the mite boxes and
monthly payment of dues, raised
the required amount, and this noble
band has already begun the agita'
ton of new organ for Rehoboth
church, which doubtless will soon
be installed. F. A. NJ.

READY MARKET FOR
MISSISSIPPI PEANUTS

S. E. Delk, representing the Ameri-
can Peanut Corporation of Suffolk,
Va, is in the city buying Spanish
Peanuts for his concern. These are
to be used as seed peanuts and will
be shipped from this city and other
portions of the state to Virginia. Last
year there were a number of farmers
in this section who devoted consid-
cradle acreage to peanuts and those
who wished to sell have found a
ready market, which accounts for
their scarcity at the present time.
During the coming year it is safe to
say that the acreage will be doubled,
as it is found that the peanut plant
when used as a forage makes an ex-
cellent cattle food, especially when
baling the vines and nuts and occas-
ionally mixing with other forage
crops. Mr.. Delk has secured a very
good supply from this place and is in
Prentiss today, where there remains
a considerable quantity for sale.

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 15.-The bills
pending in both houses providing for
Presidential primary are meeting
with many expressions of approval,
and it is more than probable that Mis-
sissippi's delegation in the next
Democratic national convention will
be chosen nthis manner, with spe-
cific instructions as to the party's ia
vorite in the forthcoming fight.
About the only difference of opinion
among legislators on the Presidential
primary bill is whether 1t should be
made optional or arbitrary, some Of
them favoring the former method be-
cause other political parties may en-
courage negro republicans to again
become addicted to the voting habit,
even in a party primary. The repub-
lican state executive committee has
already fixed the date for the state
convention of that party to nominate
delegates to the Chicago convention.
Chairman c. L. Lomax, of the Demo
cratic state executive committee, will
not call a meeting of that body until
after the fate of the Presidential pri-
mary bill is determined.
In anticipation of the passage Of
his measure few candidates for dele
gates to the national convention at
Baltimore are already looming up tim
idly on the political horizon to take a
look at the lay Of the land. While
none of them have pulled off the early
bird stunt by announcing, they are
ready on a moments notice to take
the voters into their confidence and
divulge their political ambitions as
soon as the fate of the measure is de-
termined. ,

]. F. N. Huddleston was appointed
temporary secretary.
The meeting was brief. It's chief
object was to discuss the several pen
sion measures pending before the leg
islature, especially the bill which pro-
posed to cut the pensions of those
veterans who own certain amount of
property, and who do not come under
the INDECENT clause. One of the argu-
ments used against the bill was that
in time of war and danger there was
no discrimination or property qualiti-
cations, but that all brave men who
enlisted In the cause of the Confeder-
acy served with equal valor, and for
that reason 1t was pointed out that
there should be no property distinc'
lions in making the warrants.
Resolutions which were adopted
were sent to Representative G. e. VIII.
son and Senator w. A. Ellis with the
request that they favor and advocate
the passage of any bill which will
equalize the pensions.
Similar resolutions have been Of
fered to the members of the Pension
committees of both houses.
