Editor Sentinel:
Through the columns of your paper ]
wish to thank each trustee and patron
of Lamon school for the hearty CO.
operation they have given me while
teaching their school.
This is one of the essentials of good
school. They have provided US with
more than enough wood and always en-
dorsing each movement which l deemed
for the good of the school, which makes
the teachers work pleasant.
wish, also, to thank each pupil for
their efforts and ask them to try al
ways to do their best.
enrolled only thirty-nine pupils, but
made general average of thirty pupils
for the entire time, seven pupils not
missing day, and fifteen who came
forty days without missing. What
school can beat this record?
Thanking all again for their cooper

GOV. GLENN ON THE
SALOON INTERESTS.
Makes Very Able and Elo-
quent Argument Against
Evils of Whiskey.

Ex-Governor R. B. Glenn of North
Carolina made AN address in the inter-
est Of temperance and exposing the
viciousness and evils of the saloon at
the Presbyterian church last Sunday
morning. The writer was not in town
and hence did not have an opportunity
to hear the Governor. He WAS greeted
by packed house and evidently charm
ed his hearers. He presented the evils
of the liquor traffic in new light and
offered most conclusive and convincing
argument against the saloon and all of
its attendant evils. There can be no
doubt that the forces fighting the sale
of whisky are rapidly advancing and
that the day of the saloon throughout
the land is doomed. The recent law
enacted by Congress, tho largely a
farce, was triumph of the snti-whisky
forces. The business man, the insur-
ance man, the railroad official, the pro-
fessional man and every other calling
and class have no place for the whisky
drinker. This was very aptly illus
trated by Gov. Glenn. Mr.. Glenn is
touring the country and there is nc
question that his addresses are dealing
crushing blows to the saloon interests.
The people have buckled on their armol
to put whisky out of business and they
have never yet failed to accomplish
anything they have set their minds anc
hearts to do. Truth and right are OF
the side of the anti-whsky forces ant
they are powerful weapons.

Tribute to the Memory Of Mrs. Elder.

Mrs. A. D. Elder of Coldwater died
in the Baptist Memorial Hospital at
Memphis last Saturday and her remains
were inferred in the cemetery at her
home the following day.
In the death of this noble, good wom-
an, the writer's family loses very
dear friend. She was rich in Christian
graces, bounteous in mother love and
radiant in her duties and virtues as a
wife. The sunshine of heaven and the
love of a beneficent Providence unde-
niably witnessed her acceptance into
the realm of the redeemed, where the
perfumes of Paradise and the nectar OF
Israel pervade. She wrought well and
left rich legacy to the world in sis
splendid children. While her devoted
husband is utterly cast down, he shoule
mediate upon the courts of glory ane
there, through the eyes of faith. h
can see his departed wife with one o.
heavens most beautiful crowns upo'
her brow beckoning him and those be
hind to follow her. The .refrain from
the Mercy Seat answers, "Alls we'll.
1t is hard to be reconciled to wha
seems a cruel blow but sometime W
will understand. God is love an
makes no mistakes. The sincerest an
tenderest sympathy is rendered tn
grief-stricken ones.
Mrs. Elder was a sister of Mrs. H
F. Byers of Grenada.

White Way Down Depot Street.

At the last meeting Of the Civic
League the subject was broached Of
adding this wonderful attraction to our
city. The ladies' are very enthusiastic
over the idea of sparkling, well light
ed approach to our beautiful town. If
properly encouraged they will under
take to accomplish it.
DR.. Young reported that hs had, as
requested by the League, made an ad-
dress to the colored people on the SUBJ
ject of tuberculosis which was well
attended and gratefully received. A
rising vote of thanks was given the
Doctor, who made courtly response.
When questioned by the president as to
condition of meat markets DR.. Young
reported them in sanitary condition.

Then why not encourage those wh'
wish to beautify the town and improve

afford to oil the streets we should hav'

Nothing could have been more sue
cessful, from both social and spectacu-
lar standpoints. than the half holiday
which the President, who is very
hard worker, gave himself when he
visited Fort Myer to witness the best
exhibition of horsemanship that has
ever been offered at that famous post.
If there were more such half holidays
there would be less epidemic nervous
break down among our workers. And
II men and women perpetually in har-

their desks once week they woult
doubtless obtain great relief.
