Mr.. and Mrs. L. G. Jones of Brax-
ton. Mas, In the City.
Mr.. Jones ID Q Graduate Of Iowa City
Ills Wife Was Grace M.
Allen Of Burlington.

Mr. and Mrs. L. q. Jones, Of Brax-
ton, Miss, are visiting in the city en-
joying a brief vacation, and inciden-
tally winning friends for their school
in the Southland. Both are really
northern people. Mr. Jones is an Iowa
man and graduate of the Iowa State
University. Mrs Jones is Burling-
ton girl, formerly Mrs Grace M. Allen.
She at one timeconducted successful
school in this city.
In 1909, Mr.. Jones went to the South
land and at or rather near Braxton, he
organized school. The beginning was
in the open air, under the trees, but he
had the right IDEAS and he persevered,
and by and by he won friends and now
he is winning success. Last year, Prof.
L G. Weld, formerly of the Burling-
ton high school, later Of the Iowa State
University and the head of the Great
Pullman school, that is to be organized
and opened in the near future. paid the
Piny Woods Country Life School at
Braxton a visit and spoke very highly,
of the work that is being done there
and the work that is being planned
there for the future. In the three short
years Professor Jones has accomplish
ed wonders. One of the first to come
to his assistance was colored man
who had been slave, and who had in
later years worked at Keokuk as a. bar
Der and had done well there. He gave
the school forty acres of land and $50
in cash. An old colored woman, who
had naught else to give brought two
geese. From all sides offerings and
aid came and last year the white peo-
pie of Braxton gave handsome build.
ing to be used as girls domitory.
Captain Asa Turner, of Iowa, q son of
the famous Congregational pioneer, is
one of the firm friends of the institu-
ton and the professor and his wife,
are winning friends everywhere and
promise in few years to have an
institution that will be credit to Brax-
ton and Mississippi and source Of
untold benefit to the colored and the
white people Of that region. Burling-
tonians will find the professor and his
wife very interesting people and those
who are able to do 20 will no doubt be
delighted to further the plans of these
and devoted workers.
