Caulfield Superintendent
Of Mississippi Division.

On Dec. 8, the appointment of Mr.. A.
D. Caulheld as superintendent of the
Mississippi division of the |. c. rail
road was announced from New Orleans.
Mr.. Caul6eld succeeded Mr.. j. M. Egan
who was granted leave of absence.
Mr. Caultield is personally known to
many people in this community and
there could hardly have been an ap-
pointment made that would have been
more pleasing to Grenadians or that
would have been more popular with the
general public. Mr.. Caultield has been
connected with the rail road company
in one way or the other for years anc
everywhere and on all occasions he ha:
been the kind and the obliging man anC
the accommodating official. 1t has al
ways seemed to be genuine pleasure
for him to give information about raj
road matters or to transact any bust
ness ever out of the regular line OF HI
official work. Such men as Caulfiel
are invaluable to the railroad company
1t is needless to state that he will NEE
his larger duties in highly satisfac
tory manner. The Sentinel congratu
lates him.

David A. Williams Asks TO be Sheriff.

The Sentinel has been requested to
place the name of Mr.. David A. Will
liams before the people of Grenada
county as candidate for the office of
sheriff of Grenada. He has fill
ed both the assessors and the sheriff's
office and if there was ever any charge
of unfathfulness against him The Sem
tinel never heard of it and especially
was it said of him as assessor that he
made one of the best the county ever
had. The passing years have made him
more mature man and have undoubt-
edly added to his equipment to meet the
issues of life. When he was a mere
boy, altho coming of a parentage so
circumstanced that his opportunities
were necessarily much circumscribed,
neighbors ard friends seemed to think
that he was destined to accomplish
things beyond his associates and he has
not failed to meet these expectations.
Coming thus as he has from almost alb
solute obscurity and not having beer
favored with much scholastic training he
achieved much and showed the elements
of the true man. of the builder in life.
He is clever and kind by nature ant
if he is elected sheriff, The Sentine
feels warranted in saying that the af
fairs of the office will be correctly
handled.

Last Sunday Rev. J. W. Lee filled
his regular appointments at the Cen
tral Baptist church. His semi-monthy
visits to Grenada are always looked for
ward to with pleasure not only by the
members of his flock but by the people
of the entire town. There are few men
that were ever more highly esteemed
and that hold warmer place IN the
hearts of Grenada people than Rev. ).
w. Lee. For about twenty years ne
was resident here. the people had
every opportunity to measure HIM IRON
every angle and whenever the plumb
line was applied he was never found
wanting. Aside from his stalwarl
character, he is student not only OF
things theological but of matters that
give him the vision of no ordinary man
He is a good man and one that has
wrought well for the state.

Oregon Said to Tire Of

Portland, Ore Oregon Is tring Of
its primary election law. To wipe 1t

MORRISON EXPRESSES
HIS APPRECIATION.
But Thinks There Are Others That
Should Go TO Legislature.

Editor Sentinel note with much
appreciation the petition of some OF my
friends asking me to again offer my
name as candidate to represent Grena-
da County in the next Legislature.
feel profoundly grateful to the peo-
ple of Grenada county for the honors
already conferred upon me but feel
that it would be an abuse of their
friendship and kindness to further offer
for an office, that became candidate
for the last time at the request OF
friends, who wanted me to return.
There are several young men. Mr..
Editor, who are not only fully compe-
tent to serve the people in this capacity
but who will become candidates for the
position and | am sure will fill the same
as we'll as |.
Furthermore, | am opposed to long
tenure of office; think one, who has
served three times in the Legislature
should stand aside for others who are
worthy and well qualified. In Grenada
county there will be no lack of material
offering for the Legislature and | am
quite confident that the people will have
opportunity of sending good man to
represent us.
The State by bonding its floating debt
at the last session of the Legislature
has removed the ever recurring deficit
L. l. in CpgcOn

Legislature will find money in the
Treasury and no outstanding indebted
ness not provided for. While | would
have stopped this petition, if l could,

say that the friends whose names ap-
pear on this petition, some of them
have from my earliest efforts been an
ever present prop to me i'll all my en-
deavors and but for those of my friends,
who have bound themselves to me by
their thoughtful kindness and good Will

but would offer for the place and in fu
ture, as in the past, do my full duty a

necessity for such and new man shoul'
be sent 20 represent our county.
thank those who have signed thi
petition and the many friends who hav
spoken directly to me about again OF
fering as a candidate for the Legislator
for their confluence in me, so ofte
shown, and | assure them that | wi

best men we have, if possible, to be

Our people are quite often too lax
looking to the selection of the mel
who are by law, given the power to pt

Fine Lemons Grown
In Northern Georgia
By Woman Farmer

The frequently repeated assertion
that lemons can not successfully be
raised north OF Macon was given a
severe blow Friday by three excep-
donally fine specimens OF the citrus
fruit sent to The Georgian from the
farm Of Mrs. Lula T. Lyon. who per
sonally supervises the cultivation OF
1,200 acres OF farm land about seven
miles from Gainesville in North
Georgia.
If better lemons are raised in the
tropical and semi tropical regions
they seldom find their way to market.
The lemons sent to Atlanta by Mrs.
Lyon are especially large and OF SUI
perior quality. They rival big or
anges in size and might be mistaken
for the other fruit were it not for the
difference in shape and the slightly
lighter complexion.
They have thin rinds and are heavy
with juice. They will be kept in The
Georgian Office for several days as an
ocular demonstration of the fact that
North Georgia can produce even bet
ter lemons than the counties farther
south.

A Reminder.

1t seems to be an American custom
that when a man marrles, after hav-
ing spent considerable sums of money
on his future bride for flowers, thea =
ter gifts, etc, including a large
amount for the floral display at the
wedding, he then Immediately stops
everything OF the kind. There are
many theories to account for this phe-
nomenon, but we are all well ac-
quainted with the fact of its exist
ence. 1t is not due 10 selfishness, for
getfulness nor lack of funds but
seems to be merely the custom.
Now, Valentine Day is just the
right day to reawaken with a gift of
flowers that sentiment which perhaps
is lost. A few roses, bunch of vio-
let's. will recall all the pleasures of
counting days, when Cupid was king.
Then again, for mother. or dear old
aunt or sister, affection is born anew
by some such token as pot Of prim-
roses

Plenty of Flowers.

There will be no scarcity OF flowers
for Valentine Day gifts. OF course
there are times when flowers of some
particular variety are more limited
in quantity than at other seasons, but
there are plenty of others to take
their place. All the old favorite flow =
ers appropriate at this time of year
are to be had, and many other rare
and exquisite flowers not so common
~ used At every flower shop, those
in charge will show you some par
ticular variety of flower Of which they
have made a specially, or some beau
tiful plant in a handsome basket
or jar, perhaps not to be had at other
shops. Thus it runs, and so much the
better, each and everyone has stock
of rich, fragrant flowers, offering am
pie opportunity for suitable selection.

Hand Car Joy Riders
Are Held for Theft

County Policemen Walters and But
Ter put an abrupt end to a rather
unique joy ride Thursday night when
they arrested George Wallace and J.
L. Elder, of Cross Keys in DeKalb
County. and lodged them in jail here
on charge of stealing a hand car
from the Southern Railway.
The prisoners were headed for A..
lanta when the policemen stopped
them, soon after they entered Fulton
County. Chief Mathieson intended
turning the men over to the Dekalb
County authorities until he learned
that there was q charge of horse
stealing against Wallace in Fulton.
Both are held on charges OF larceny.

An Appropriate Story.

A florist tells us this pathetic little
story: A lady came into his shop and
her glance fell upon some beautiful
pink roses of a certain variety by
name the Atlanta Belle, running
rose of white. with a faint tlnge of
pink. Her eyes filed with tears, and
after composing herself she told the
florist that when her husband was
counting her, she lived in a cottage
in Georgia covered with these very
same kind of roses. The flowers
brought to her recouections OF the
time when her husband was living.
Such are one of the missions of flow
ers, to recall the tender emotions. the
finer feelings OF the heart, which,
alas, are too often smothered and re-
strained under the stern needs of
modern life.
