FARM WORK DELAYED.
Much Rain and High Waters Retard
Farming. Public Roads In
Bad Condition.

The rains of last week caused farm
work to be set back at least two weeks,
The Yalobusha river has been unusu-
ally high and most of the land ada
cent to its banks has been overfowed.
The fact is, there has been more rain
since the first of January than for
years. The earth should undoubtedly
be thoroughly saturated with water.
The winter rains, together with the in
tense cold weather of the North, would
seem to justify those living in the Mis-
sissippi delta in watching the evees
closely lest there be an overflow of the
delta country.
Farm work in this section is very
much retarded. The people have been
ready for perhaps month, but there
has just been no weather in which tc
work. There have been two or three
days this week of spring weather,
which, if prolonged, will allow the
plows to start OH almost every farm
during the coming week.
The public roads are said to be very
bad. The continuous rains have made
it impossible to work them, but it is
hoped that they will be given immedi
ate attention as soon as they are suffi
ciently dry. 1t will take more than the
usual force to cover the road territory

PRFSSGROVf'S OPENING
One Of The Greatest Ever Seen In
Grenada. Fashions Choicest
Things. Many Attend.

r. Pressgrove's announcement of his
millinery opening on Wednesday and
Thurday of this week brought to the
parlors of his annex all the ladies who
want to be the first in fashion and who
know already some of the new styles
and attractive headgear predestined by
Dame Fashion for the season. Never
had more Of the beautiful, ornate and
loveliness of style been garnered for
this trade than was seen on display.
For every one who came there was
'just what l want" and the some.
thing Il was always just crazy about
anything like that" Indeed, Mr.. Press
grove and his valuable aids in this de-
partment have the rare gift of fitting
their purchases to suit the tastes of
their customers to such degree that
the most fastidious could not be better
suited in the great millinery stores of
the cities where the worlds richest
milliner is laid conquest on the lap of
Fashion. While there were large hats
and larger hats, the tendency in style
IS somewhat smaller than last year.
The rough straws, in severe sailor, yet
more acute derby shape. seem to be
the latest speciality for street hats
For dress hat, the taste fixes its
shape and how it shall be trimmed.
] Then there were the ready to -weaf
garments, the new ribbons, and many
other things that man but gazes at.
the women buy them and wear them.
The store was crowded with admiring
throngs, both days. and one of the
pleasing features that so delighted the
management was the number of ladies
from other towns who came especially
to make their purchases. There were
a few fathers and husbands to look in
during the two days and they seemed
to be equally as pleased, but of course
were not so demonstrative, as the la
dies. This means that they were sat
isfied with the prices and the sales will
be easy. PressgTove states that never
before did his n,iIIinery department
take so many orders for hats at ar
opening period.
Besides his annex, his store on ths
corner was well arranged and those Ia
dies that could not find all they wanted
at the Annex, were SOON at the mar
store, where accommodating clerks
we're ready to show all the arts am
substantials in the trade line.

Miss Gays Store Opening Day.

This unusually attractive place was
really on "dress parade" on the days
named for "Opening Days" by Miss
Matte Gay. which were Wednesday
and Thursday. Miss Gay and Mrs.
Dora Rollins are both adopts at saying
the right thing in the most pleasing
way and their art in this line seemed to
be auadrupled at this time. They were
pleased at their display of lovely hats
and novelties, which comprised all the
newest and latest that fashion had i'm
posed on it's devotees, and hence en-
tered most enthusiastically into showing
and explaining the varied styles, and
every lady present was emphatic in
complimenting the beauty in arrange
ment ard the gorgeous display.
The Sentinel has no hesitancy in say
ing that ladies' can not find a better Sc
lection of fashions or more handsome
creations'in the millinery line than in
Grenada attsome of the millinery stores
of the city.

1t is not believed he had anything

Or. Brown Celebrates 5OfA Birthday.

A few of the friends of one of tiren-
ada's most popular famiies-Dr. and
Mrs. T. j. Brown enjoyed the hospi.
tality for few hours of their elegant
home on the corner of Margin and COL
lege streets, last Friday, March Is, the
occasion being the celebration of the
fiftieth birthday of the head of this
household. A most elegant dinner was
served by Mrs. Brown, who. by the
way, is one of Grenada's choicest char
acters. She seemed to take an unusual
delight in doing SO gracefully the hon
ors of this event. She always joins
most heartily in everything that she
thinks will please her devoted husband.
The day was bright and joyous to
both. Youth with its fancy, its optim-
ism, its charms and its rainbows,
seemed to dance most beautifully on
the brows of both husband and wife.
Their lives have been luminous with
devotion one to the other that is wor-
thy OF emulatlOn.
For one to have reached even the fif-
tieth milepost means much experience,
great observation, some sadness and
gloom as well as much joy. The Sem
tinel is pleased to note that the day
found DR.. Brown so well, so hale and
so hearty. 1t wishes for him nothing
but that which is best for him in the
future. May he garner up the past as
lesson as we'll as legacy, so that his
we'll trained and cultured mind will en-
able him to claim natures richest re-
wards and life's fullest measure of USE
fulness IN the days that are to come.
Without any attempt to flatter, the
Sentinel can truthfully say that DR..
Brown is a man Of extraordinary capa-
bilities. He has wrought well thus far.
He has been potential for those things
that pertain to the highest virtues.
Yet the future demands more of him,
and he will be equal to it. Time does
not tarry by the wayside to await the
pleasures of men, but it is on, on and
on. Yet its shadows are golden when
the lives of good and useful men and
women are watched and measured from
the windows of its ever-speeding char
lot. The Sentinel feels sure that DR..
Browns many friends wish that the
problems that are before him may
leave no more imprint upon his physi-
cal being than those that are behind
and that he may ever be able to see
through the mist and the fog to the
blue sky beyond.

Rsp,b Attack Of Death

FORWARD MOVEMENT
Organization Begun In Grenada To
Push This Great Religious Cru.
Sdde In This City.

Sentinel readers are no doubt famil-
lar with the great religious movement
that is stirring the hearts of the peo-
pie at so many places throughout the
United States, known as the Mems
Forward Religious Movement. Only
last week was the city of Memphis
stormed by some devoted men and it is
said that it has been long while since
that city was so much awakened along
religious lines. Several from Grenada
were in attendance, among them being
Mr.. Jack Wilson, who never fails to
embrace an opportunity to still further
equip himself for faithful and efficient
work in church affairs.
A meeting was held at the First Bap
tist church in this city Sunday f-fter-
noon and plans were set on foot Cha o.
gin work on this great movement. An
other meeting was called at the Pres
byterian church Monday morning,
which was attended by all the residen,
pastors of the city and few lay
men, to agree upon plans and put some
committees to work. in addition Il
the pastors, two laymen were namec
from each church as a steering or ex
ecutive committee. The following arr
the committees:
Episcopal church Rev. l. Trout, Jno
S. King and Roy Doak.
Methodist church-Rev. J. A. Hall
C. C. Penn and A. T. McElwl ath.
First Baptist church. w. R
Cooper, w. J. Jennings and j. L
Barnard.
Presbyterian church-Rev. j. C. Car
others, DR.. B. S. Dudley and A. M
Carothers.
In addition to the aheve list. tn
names of j. c. Wilson and Dr.. w. H
Whitaker were added. The first meet
ing will be held next Sunday afternoo
in the basement of the Methods
church at 3 O clock. A most earnes
invitation II extended every man in tn
town to be present. 1t is a man
movement and there will be none bl
men present. Nobody can be hurt b
y going. Somebody may be inju. ed b

Sheriff West Disappointed.

During the early part of the week
Sheriff West arrested Dave johnson,
alias Big Jim, at Lefore, thinking that
ne was a negro wanted in Claiborne
county for the murder of negro wo-
man. Sheriff Bagnell, of that county,
came up Tuesday, but as soon as he
saw the prisoner he told Mr.. West that
ne was not the man wanted; so the ne
gro was liberated and went away re-
)oicing. On Monday Mr.. West sent two
deputies to Greenwood to arrest Ber
Hemphill, wanted here for numbering
his wife about four years ago, but il
the Hemphill negro had heen there HI
had sought other quarters.
