Manager Oliphant states that he
believes the time has come to put just
as much honesty and integrity behind
the show business as the public ex-
pect from other lines of mercantile
business. consequently the policy OF
the house will be to deliver the
moneys worth OF clean goods at all
times. Nothing will be offered to the
publ cthat has not had his personal

COLLEGE GIRLS INTIMATE
VIEW OF MAC DOWELI

What a college girls thinks of Mac
Dowelps music painting Is hinted in
the following paragraph from the Vas
sar Miscellany:
MacDowell's pictures give us his ex-
periences-perhaps the sun on the
hills a bobolink's song, a simmer
ing pool in the moonlight-almost as
vlvldly as he felt them when he
turned them into melodies. Some OF
them are quite complicated in musi-
cal form, and yet the most complex
ones are as unblurred and brilliantly
colored as the simplest. The wild
Rose" played too often by unskilled
hands, has not lost the freshness and
naive simplicity of those pink petaled
blossoms that smile into the hot Au-
gust sunshine. In another of the
Woodland Sketches" there is a huge
water lily floating in lonely state up
on placid blue-gray pool. THE
Brook" is short piece that bubbles
over in ecstasy. Swift and unreason-
ing 1t ripples out a graceful melody,
meeting once stony spot over which
il pours in a blurred rush
The patterns of the Sea Pieces" are
little less simple. Here we have the
ocean in some of its moods. thou
mighty monster" dark blue and glo-
rious. the northern ocean cold and
gray. and again a golden ocean with
"a fairy sail and fairy boat" In
"A. d. 1920" the huge full chords and
sturdy rolling rhythm of the music
picture to US in an instant "the sway
ing galleon that towards a land of
promise lunges hugely on"

This Cowboy Thinks
The Dalles is Easy

Pm disappointed in that horse, ="
said Sam Thompson. director of live
stock. after he had watched a big
gray feebly attempt to unseat a rider
in one OF the tryOuts. His owner told
me he was the worst horse they had
at n bucking contest in The Dalles."
HE could have been that and not
heen much" put in Bill Mahaffey. one
of the paid buckarooes. "They don't
know what a good horse or good
rider is down in that country. Two
years ago I blew into that town on
the rods and. .eafter wandering around
n little, ] came across three of four
men sitting on a fence trying to coax
each other into ridin' little cayuse

at the nag and then I asked them
how much they would give me to ride

song OF the Spur.

o. it g no and hey for the wind
swept way.
And the breath of the open trail,
Ere the East Is stirred with a ripple
of rose
Or the yellow stars grow pale.
And its hey and no for the beating
sun
And the slash of the slanting rain
For the singing grass and the singing
speed,
And the sweep of the stretching
plain!
o, it's no and hey when the believing
steers
Storm down in a frenzied rank,
To the head of the herd. while my
hungry teeth
Bite blood from the heaving flank!
And it's hey and no when the Dusk
has set
Pale lamps in her turrets high,
Homeward again where far light
calls,
Under a tingling sky!

Roy Hunter used to bear arms In
the U. S. army. General Grant" they
call him, maybe because he never
surrenders. He will tackle any OF
them, anytime and anyplace. Sunday
he mounted Long Tom and never left
the saddle until the tenth jump,
something of feat in itself. Also he
got aboard Henry Vogt, one of the
bucking bulls, and staid with the big
Jersey twenty jumps before he hit the

Wild Horse Race No
Cut and Dried Affair

or all the stirring sights of the
Roundup the wild horse race is guar
anteed to be a thriller which it will be
hard to beat
For an. exhibition of pure, undilut-
ed witness. the horse fresh from the
range who has never had a saddle up
on his back, il about the nearest
thing to primeval lawlessness that can
be seen in these days of more or less
sedate ways.
While each event of the Roundup
is thrilling in itself, this race Is fit
ting climax to the days business and
sends one home with an exhilerating
thrill. One man who saw the show
last year for the first time declared:
"It kept me on my feet, with my hair
standing straight up"
A bunch of horses are taken onto
the track and the riders with an as
saddle over the animals back. 1t is
fight between horse and man. As
soon as the saddle Is on. the rider is
astride and the infuriated animal
makes a lurch to get rid of his un-
welcome burden There is no twist
or turn or jump that is left undone by
the horse, and then in his last en-
deavor he runs away. This Is just
what 1t is-a wild runaway race.
Sometimes the rider is thrown and
sometimes he sticks to the plunging
animals back as he dashes around
the track. Whatever happens, 1t is
no tame affair And the spectator is
held spellbound.

LIBRARY PLANS
we're DISCUSSED
INcoRPoRAToRs> AND COMMIT.
TEE MET WEDNEsDAY-cAN-
VAss FOR MEMBERS.

A charter for the Hattiesburg LII.
brary Association having been granted
by Governor Brewer, the incorporators
named and the committee appointed
at mass meeting several weeks ago,
met at the Commercial Club rooms at
A o'clock Wednesday afternoon.
1t was decided to fix the member
ship fee at So, to be paid only once,
and that the library shall be a free
public library, provided corporate, in
dividual and club patronage can be
secured to support the organization on
such basis.
T. c. Hannah presided at the meet
ing and the plans proposed were free
ly discussed by Messrs. H. A. Camp,
Ben M. Foster Claude Bennett and
Misses Addie Greedy and Myrtle Bass.
A committee composed Of Ben M.
Foster, Miss Greedy and Miss Bass,
was appointed to confer with the sew
eral ladies' clubs in the city and with
the city commissioners, for the pur-
pose of learning what each will do to-
wards the permanent support of the
library.
1t was generally agreed that when
the association is formed, it shall be
under the direction and control of a
board of governors, selected by those
who have qualified as life members,
by the payment of the IS membership
fee, though the privileges of the IL
brary are to be free to all who com
ply with the rules and regulations
which may be prescribed by the gov
errors.
When the library has been opened
to the public the students in all the
white public schools will be privileged
to make free use of it. This fact, 1t
is thought will furnish a legal basis
for municipal support, as a supplement
to that expected from the civic bodies
and public-spirited individuals.
Another meeting will be held on the
call of Chairman Hannah when the
Sustenance committee has made its
canvass and is ready to report.
