County Normal Notes

'On Wednesday AFTERNOON of last
week Mr.. Ball visited the normal room
and gave a very interesting talk about
the life in the country. The farmers
are so busy on their farms that they do
not take the time to teach their children
how to train their souls. Mr. Ball says
the majority of the farmers are in too
great hurry to become prosperous.
They would haye better crop of boys
and girls if they would take the time to
train them.
CON- j. H. Milford visited the normal
room for few minutes Tuesday fore
noon.
The manual training students are
making charts to use in their schools
for their chart classes.
The students have been making book
marks and booklets in the drawing
class.
The class has been studying bene-
fetal insects in agriculture. Among
those that are beneficial are the lady
bug or lady beetle, silk worm, honey
bees, humble bees and dragon flies or
darning needles. Toads and birds are
also found to be beneficial.
The editors for the week are Esther
Walker and Willard Howe. Lila Howe
is attending to the ventilation and
Velma LaCount is the housekeeper.
Rhoda Cliff spent Sunday with Hattie
Hamlin at the latter's home, this past
week.
The class has been reviewing the
work in psychology, An examination
was given Thursday and Friday during
the period for this class.

SCHOOL NOTES.

O'Clock dinner.
The Board of Education has purchas-
ed several new slate boards, These

The pupils of the various grades

work during the past few weeks Book
lets, pillow covers, baskets, sewing, etc
have been completed for Christmas.
The attendance in the high school
has been exceptionally regular for the
past week or two and hardness has
been materially reduced.
The Eighth Grade had an exhibit OF
drawing, sewing, and basketing, Thurs
day.

One Of the most effective ways for
local merchants to oppose enroach-
ments of the mail order houses is to
advertise literally in the local paper.
Too many merchants sleep on their
oars while the catalogue house comes
in and takes a large portion OF their
trade. They demur at undertaking
anything like thorough system OF
advertising, contending that the drift
to the mail order houses is bound to
come; and yet make free complaint
over the inroad of the mail order
houses into their particular trade. The
fact of the matter is, the trade belongs
rightfully to them and would come to
them if they were progressive enough
in inviting it with good live advertis-
ing.-Michigan Tradesman.
Work might be more to our liking il
we didn't have to do it.

MR.. HEARD SAYS WORK ON
RAILROAD WILL BEGIN SOON
President Of Memphis, Columbus
and Pensacola Line Gives Out
Encouraging News.

Mr.. G.. T. Heard of Brooksville
president of the Memphis, Co
lumbus and Pensacola railroad,
was in the city Friday, and when
interrogated regarding the pros
poets for the road stated that
they were very bright. and ne
hoped to begin work some time
in the near future.
Mr.. Heard was sick for several
months but has completely recov-
cred his health, and is now ac-
lively engaged in promoting the
scheme. He stated that he had
succeeded in interesting foreign
capital in the undertaking, and
saw no good reason why it should
not be successfully consummated.
The proposed line runs from
Memphis to Pensacola, and ira
verses an unusually fertile Sec
tion of the country, much oi
which is now entirely without
railroad facilities. This is es.
pecially true of the territory be.
tween Columbus and Pickensville
and it is the intention OF Mr.
Heard to build this section OF tn'

SUPPLIES FOR ONLY THREE
MONTHS CAN Be PURCHASED
State Official has Unearthed Law
Which Vitally Affects Pub
lie Purchases.

Jackson, Miss. Aug. 2O.-It is
against the law of Mississippi for
boards of supervisors, boards of
school trustees of the common
schools. and all boards of mayor
and aldermen, to purchase sup
plies for more than three months
at time.
A state official found the law in
chapter 12S. page 122. of the
laws of 1912.
Evidently this Law has been
overlooked by many boards, for
it is said that many schools and
boards of aldermen throughout
the State have bought a winters
supply of coal. and of course
winter months are more than
three in number.
The law, il is believed. viii
work a hardship on many insti.
tutions, for by purchasing Goa
and other supplies in large guam
titles, sufficient for nine months
or a year, naturally lower prices
can be secured.

MERIDIAN NEWSPAPER MAN
STABBED BY MAYOR PARKER
City Executive Takes Umbrage
at Article Which Appeared

Meridian. Miss, Aug. o.
beverly b. Pierce, news editor
of the Meridian Star. who was
wounded in an encounter with
Mayor Parker at the city hall
yesterday was reported at the
noon hour to be resting easily.
While in serious condition, the
attending physicians believe he
will recover.
Investigation of the affair re-
vealed the fact that Mr.. Pierce,
on his way to lunch, stopped in
the police station. where Mayor
Parker and the other gentlemen
we're grouped about talking. and
on his arrival, it is alleged that
the mayor took Mr.. Pierce to
task for a news article appearing
in the Wednesday issue of the
Star, the paragraph in question
bringing on the stabbing affray
being as follows:
80 far as can be learned, the
bonds voted to care for the float

not been offered for sale in any
other bond center. although they
could be sold to other bond buy
