Answer to "Scrl' b.r" in Regard 10 Pre-
t%ecting the Buzznrd.

We noticed in the last Issue of thu
BEACON a plea for the buzzards fror
II who signs himself "~Scrihbler."
Now We do not question the good
motives or Intentions Of Mr., Scrlhblc'
hut think his argument weak. Ger
tainly, tho Lord knew what He wp
doing when He made the br2zard
So, also, when He made all manne'
Of poisonous reptiles and when "
created the cattle tick and the Dol
wccvil and all the endless variety o.
insect enemies Of all the useful farm
crops, When He created all manner
of microbes that cause untold misery
sickness and death, He knew what
He was doing. and We believe thai
He was onto His Job when he created
man and rave him dominion owe the
fish OF the sea, over the fowl of the
air, etc, and commanded him to re
DlellSu lut PnTln TO SuOuUe II
He knew what He was doing so he
gave man intelligence expecting that
man would then know something
and do something to overcome these
enemies, diseases and difficulties al
along the line OF human progress.
We cannot control hog cholera as
long as the county is full of the
filthy, disease spreading buzzards
They are causing the farmers o
Noxubee and ad joining counties tC
spend thousands OF dollars annual!
for Northern meat that should bo
produced at home. The Northern
farmers are raising a surplus Of buz
yards. Which do you prefer Mr.
Scribbler? Let us burn or bury al
carcasses, put a bounty on buzzards
and raise more hogs. ,

ADVISES BLONDES
TO AVOID LIGHTS
MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO HEAT
THAN BRUNErTEs SAYS
HEALTH OFFICER.

WASHINGTON, June 29.-Blondes
are more susceptible to the heat than
brunettes. and should shy at bright
lights. because they are rich in
chemical ether waves" according to
DR.. w. c. Rucker, of the public health
service.
The government expert gives some
hot weather hints, in connection with
his warning to blondes, the principal
one being that folk should quit thinks
ing about the heat Another hint
is to keep STILL" and watch what
you drink"
Zone should avoid meats" he said,
ain hot weather, should eat cooked
vegetables and avoid green fruits, be-
cause they upset the digestion and in
ytte intestinal attacks.
Another thing-dont eat or drink
anything with whose family history
you are not acquainted. Patronize
only those restaurants of known
cleanliness. Opportunities for the
food are increased enormously during
the warm weather. Avoid the fly
as you would an adder. 1t is con-
ceived ininquity. bred in filth, and
leads a life of crime.
Battle as often as You want, but
avoid extremes of heat and cold in
the water.
If you are q blonde avoid the
bright lights, because they are rich
in chemical ether waves In persons
that have considerable pigment in
their kin-brunettes-the short,
rapid, actinic waves are transformed
into long and slow heat waves These
ectlnic waves have deleterious eff
feet on the nervous system OF those
whose skin cannot reduce their po-
tency. Plondes should avoid sun
light as much as possible. and when
they do go out they should wear
colored glasses; hats with orange
lining, and their clothes outside should
be white TO reflect the heat rays. Their
underwear should be colored. prefer
ably orange or blue. This Is to pro-
teet the sh in"
