BELLEVIEW

Belleview, jan 21.-Joe Cook,
president of the Mississippi Normal
College says: That the average
farmers wife, every day of her life.
lifts about 1000 pounds of water in
performing her ordinary household
duties, and until conditions, such as
these are changed, the rural school
has little chance to improve condi-
tons. This drudgery, President
Cook says, is responsible for so many
farmers wives (and some other
n ems wives that I know of losing
their figures, the freshness of their
faces anu the color and sparkle of
their eyes and then some.
Now, who says all this? Joseph
Cook, an expert and an authority on
economic questions, second to none
in the United States. Joe Cook knows
what he is talking about-and If
title women to more consideration
and chance at the ballot, I'll take
back seat. However, I'll tell you
more about it in my next. And here's
one that don't intend to lift one ton
OF water per day for any two-legged
biped-unless / can have a say-so in
the affairs that cause this condition.
