With every hours bulletins from

quotes the startling events of the last
few days in Europe: When they are
saying peace and safety then destruc-

Here is another.
For then shah be great trfbulation,
such as was not since the beginning of
the world to this time, no, nor ever
shall be. And except those days
should be shortened, there should no
flesh be saved: but for the elects sake
those days shall be shortened"

SHOULD NOT BE LAST.

We have appreciated most fully the conditions which have con-
fronted our people, conditions which of necessity have made our
friends and subscribers somewhat backward in meeting all obliga-
tions. We have not been urgent because we have believed and still
believe that our subscribers will not forget the small amount they
are due The Sentinel. The birds have been singing pay the banks
everywhere. and we believe that a trained ear can hear the same
birds sing. you should pay for your county paper. The county
newspaper is an important factor in the life of the county. If 1t is
the right sort of a newspaper it is the friend of every honest man, OF
every moral movement, of every legitimate enterprise and of all
that pertains to the best welfare OF the county. This The Sentinel
has tried to be. whether OF not it has succeeded, let its readers say.
But the very fact that its efforts have been N that direction, en-
titles it to the fair consideration of the public; certainly it has the
right to claim that which belongs to it. What is due for subscrip-
tions is ours and we feel sure that all recognize that we have been
lenient and that debts due this office should receive very prompt at
tention. 1t is not right that the newspaper should be last on the
debt paying program.
Quite a number have called within the past TWO weeks and taxi
en- careo of their accounts, let those who are still behind do likewise
and we assure them in advance that we shall be glad to see them
and that it affords us pleasure to write receipts at any time. "

How to Have a fIyless Home.

Nip the whole matter in the bud by
keeping the premises SO clean that flies
can't breed. 1t matters little how clean
YOU keep things-a few flies will insist
OF being born in spite of %you-and then
there are your neighbors. They usual
ly raise more flies than they need.
Starve the fly and save the state.
Screen all; doors and windows. That
doesn't mean screen half the doors and
windows. II, means all, ALL. Neither
does it mean using old, worn out, torn
or ill-ftting. extension screens 1t
means screens that will keep the flies
out. No, it is not expensive. Mosqui-
to netting can be tackled over the out
side of q frame at a cost of from ten to
twenty cents per window, and will last
q season. Use good wire screens at
the doors. Have them fit close. Use
sixteen-mesh screens. Ordinary wire
screens have only twelve meshes to the
inch. They will keep out flies. but if
you have sixteen-mesh screens you will
be protected against mosquitoes and
malaria as well against flies and filth.
Swat what few flies dodge in at the
doors. 1t doesn't take long, and fly
swatters are cheap. If you are one of
the. tired kind and don't like to swat get
some. sticky paper. Insect powder is
effective in a closed room, but it is ex-
p~ensive!and covers everything with dust.
If good screens have been used. insect
powder will rarely be necessary, as or
binary swatters are cheaper, quicker
and make no dust.
. Are you q careless housekeeper? Be
sure the fiies will find you out. Lice
are accidents, fleas are q nuisance. bed
bugs are a Disgrace. but flies are a
hcussholder's own fault. II you want
to keep your own self-respect and that
of your friends and neighbors. don let
anyone. find your house full of flies.
FDon't'buy fruit, meat, etc., where flies
are tolerated. If flies beat you to it,
let them have it.. Don't miss an OPP
portunity to tell your grocer or your
butcher that you don't like his flies.

Z. I. Winston advised the writer when here a few days ago that
he expected to be a candidate for the state senate from Pontotoc
county next year. Mr.. Winston spent several months in Grenada
during the past summer a manager of the congressional campaign
of Hon. s. A. Morrison and he made many friends who will always
be interested in him, Winston is a straight forward, honest, fair
dealing fellow and a man Of unusual force and aggressiveness. We
could have but one objection to him and that is his blind loyalty
to certain factions in recent state campaigns, but he is such a bully
fellow otherwise that we shall forget that fidelity upon the grounds
we'll, w suppose we had best say, he knew no better. Here's hop
ing for his election. If he wins, Pontotoc county may rest assured
that she will have a man at Jackson who will live up to his promises
and who will serve her to the best of his ability.

OF majority of the witnesses that
Baltimore was entitled to preference
over either of these cities. Washing
ton was objected to because no large
commercial interests center in that city,
although some of the witnesses said it
would be of advantage to establish q
bank there to be in close touch with

OF Baltimore rather than Philadelphia
were based on the supposed advisabifity

that Baltimore, by reason of its ,oca-

affiliations. would serve better than
Philadelphia the states of Maryland,
Virginia and West Virginia and other
territory north of the section which
may be attached to Atlanta.
Mr.. McAdoo eXpounded his views at
length today. He departed from the usual
routine of questions and answers to sup.
port the law and explain it's purposes.
Some of the witnesses said that they were
in favor of one central hank. but the Sec
rotary defended the plan of having reg
lonal banks as against this idea.
Four days originally was allotted to the
New York hearings, but today's hearing
exhausted the list of witnesses. Secre-
taries McAdoo and Houston will devote
the time intervening before the Boston
hearing to a study of the mass of testi-
n.ony obtained here.
