Every day Is fresh beginning,

You who are weary OF sorrow and

And the past things are gone and over
The tasks are done and the tears
are shed;
Yesterdays SORROWS let yesterday
cover.
Yesterdays wound which smarted
and bled,
Are healed with the healing which
night has shed.
Yesterday is part Of forever,
Bound up In heath which God
holds tight,
With the glad days and sad days and
bad days which never

or their blight,

master Thornton OF Philadelphia to
insure prompt delivery.
Miss Wilson lives In Jenkintown, q
fashionable suburb just over the city
line. but 1t is in the jurisdiction OF
the Philadelphia postmaster. Mr..
Thornton was aghast at the request
for at that time every sub-stetion. the
general postofiice and rented buildings
were crowded to the roof with the
sudden rush of packages during the
first holiday season OF the parcel post.
But he rose to the occasion (probably
she made him), sent out for the par
cels In special motors, and all were
delivered on Christmas.
There is nothing OF the militant re-
former about her. She Is just q Jolly
girl: she plays auction, Is an expert ut
the tango, and loves horseback riding,
but these are all subsidiary to her
earnest purpose in. life. Her plans for
the coming season are elaborate and
have been worked out with great care.
or course everyone Is going to help.
Boy Scouts will wrap her packages
for her. Taxicab companies are going
to help deliver them. and Uncle Sam
is going to help out 10 the extent o.
his ability. even IL he should happen
to exact postage. Even the war will
not be allowed to interfere with get
ting toys or to upset any Of her
plans"

consisted of one ring with pearls and diamond setting valued at $500, another diamond ring, his wedding present to his wife, valued at S35O, another ring valued at $50 and $15 in money. Thought the theft occurred Sunday night, but did not know of it upon the boat trip from Newport and had no such con- versation as given by one of the states witnesses. On cross examination, witness after tes- tifying that he tried to locate Arthur German, a suspected white boy through letters, but not telegrams, admitted that he testified to the grand jury that he had sent telegrams.
 The defense having closed, the state called Jim Hunter in re- buttal. Was on county farm at time of trouble and said Ed gar Robinson was on farm at time of shooting. Ira Best brought him down on a white horse.

Weldon and Tupelo. The pro- posed system calls for the re- mainder of the highways outside of this main thoroughfare to be '8 feet wide in macadam con- struction upon a P foot dump, with permanent re-enforced con- crete bridges.
 The total cost of construction was estimated at $675,0 ,000, which with our assessed real valuation of $3,800,000, a 3 per cent bet torment tax would produce $112,000 yearly and retire the bonds in 719 years.
 One-third of the taxes of this county are paid by the railroads and the tax per acre on land whose assessed valuation is $4, which is the average for this county, would be 12 cents; on a $1O valuation, the tax would be 30 cents an acre, and if the bonds were made for a longer term of years, the tax would be less.
 We are now paying $20,000 a year in road tax and getting mo- thing for it, because it goes out in dribbles over 500 miles of road and the results are nothing. A bond issue for a system of roads is the solution of the road problem for Jackson county.
 These were the thoughts ad- vanced by MT. Carter, who was strongly applauded at the con- clusion of his address.
 G. A. Hillhouse, Judge c. B. Coe and ex-Senator John H. Keel made splendid short talks ex- pressing their approval of the road system proposed and ex- |plaining how it was to be voted on in the March primary ballot.

Robinson was not a convict or on the farm at the time of the shooting.
 Lee Quinn, another of the defendants, testified that the negro "Slim" after he had been shot, asked witness to help him out and to say the shoot ing was accidental. Corroborat- ed the testimony of Dr. Thoma- son, explaining his story of the shooting in this way as being at the negro Sims suggestion. Witness said he had no inten- tion of shooting Slim and that when the negro struck him in the forehead, his revolver fell from scabbard and was acciden- tally discharged. On cross ex- animation, witness said he worked for Jewel Best in cold drink stand and had pied guilty to two indictments for selling li- quor. Aside from becoming con- fused on relative positions when the shooting occurred, witness testimony of the incident was along the same lines as that of preceding witness. Witness ad- mitted he had been convicted of shooting a man in Crawford county and produced a pardon issued by Gov. Hays.
 Ex-Senator John H. Keel holds a contract to work the prison CTS, was here Tuesday, May 27 and was met at home landing by his wife and told that her jewels were gone. The cook Mag told witness how suspicious Slim was acting and negro was taken to the corral. Keel then went to the corral and the negro Slim confessed and said he had already served a three years term in the penitentiary. The negro was handcuffed and wit ness led the way with a lantern toward the big elm tree on the river; heard the scuff1e, some one say "he's loose," then an- other five got him" and a pis- tol fired. His lantern went out when he ran into a sapling, and the negro said to him Don't let them shoot me any more MT. Keer' to which Keel replied that he didn't want anyone to shoot and demanded to know who had shot. It was then found, said witness, that the shot had been accidental. Me- gro was taken back and then to place where he said Mag had left the jewels and Mag was also taken there, but they could never find jewels, which

commitment and date issued of June 3, and also identified Ed gar Robinson, the states wit ness, who was brought forth from the witness room as being negro sent to farm on that date
 Jewel s. Best was the first of the defendants to testify. He was present night Slim was shot. Keel told the guards that Slim had told him where the jewelry was hidden and asked witness, Lee Quinn and Arthur Walls to go with him. This they did, Keel carrying a lan- tern, Slim was on left of wit ness and all were going toward Elm tree, the hiding place. Slim was handcuffed and struck Lee Quinn a side lick over forhead. Slim tried to run and witness grabbed him, both fell along with Quinn, shot was fired and witness said Boys, you've shot me-" The negro also said he was shot and when Quinn found his revolver by light of the lan- tern, which had to be relighted, one chamber had been discharg- ed. All then returned to house, dressed the negro's arm used an antiseptic and bandages and Keel phoned for Dr. Thomson. Mag had told Keel that Slim had put jewelry in another place and both negroes were taken to this place and each accused the other of doing the stealing. Witness and Keel went to Ingle- side day before the shooting and didn't know of the jewelry being stolen until they landed at Ingleside, when Mrs. Keel met them and told them about the theft, so could not have had conversation alleged by man who carried them down.
 On cross examination, wit ness stated that he went down at this particular time on pleas ure trip, but carried revolver because he was and still is su- perintendent of the county farm, had already served sen tences in four cases for selling liquor illegally. Witness said he had hold of Sims arm night he was taken, but became mixed On his testimony as to how long he held the negro's arm in the mix-up. Witness denied that Keel had ever said "shoot the negro if he tries to run," but said Keel had instructed them never to shoot anyone on the farm if the convicts did get |away. Witness said Edgar
