Miss Margaret Hansen
home from her school work.

Henry Sahn had the misfor-
tune to break his right arm
last evening while teaching a
new driver to manage a car.
They were returning from
Council Bluffs and were just
rounding sharp curve onto a
bridge when car coming from
the opposite direction doomed
up in front of them. The new
driver was not used to manag-
ing a car in such tight places
and turned too far to the
side into the bridge railing.
Mr.. Sahn thinking the car was
going into the ravine below,
jumped and in doing so broke
his arm and was otherwise
skinned and bruised up. The
man who was in the car could
not jump and was uninjured
as the car did not go off the
bridge.

Bilious Attacks

When you have a bilious at
tack your liver fails to perform
its functions. You become
constipated. The food you eat
ferments in your stomach in
stead of digesting. This in
flames the stomach and causes
nausea, omiting and a terrible
headache. Take Chamberlain's
Tablets. They will tone up
your liver, clean out your sto-
mach and you will soon be as
we'll as ever. They only cost a
quarter. Obtainable every
where. i29

The Missouri Valley Times
gives bit of good advice to
county fair managers when it
suggests the need of improving
the general appearance of the
grounds between now and fair
time; that buildings should be
repaired and painted; the lawns
cleaned and moved, trees
trimmed, flower beds made and
planted; and believes that if all
these things and more were at
tended to early in the season
instead of waiting, as not a
few associations do, until the
last possible day before STAR
ing the cleanup, that it would
help amazingly in the general
scheme of things.-The Bill

A M u S E M E N r S
"Fi-Fi of the Toy Shop"

Promptly at SIS o'clock tonight, the
curtain will rise on one of the most
beautiful amateur production ever
staged in Hattiesburg.
A wealth of pretty costumes, and
many beautiful scenes in coy shop
and the gardens of fairyland go to
make up this clever musical. The
final rehearsal was held at the Audi
forum last evening and went off with
the right amount of pep" 1t is inter
esting to watch the animals and jump
ing jacks do their different stunts
and what they lack artistically is
made up by vigor. The little blocks
in a clever pantomine drill are equally
attractive. Fun and frolic prevail
through the three acts until all are
gathered for the finale in one grand
ensemble. This is one of the most
beautiful parts of the production in
which Bonnie awakens and finds that
her dream has been one big night OF
revelry.

At the Lomo today is THE Bargain, .
another Paramount picture, produced
by Thomas H. Ince. THE Bargain
is a great Western story-western
characters, western scenery-laid in
the Grand Canyon of Arizona-and
typical western situations. William
S. Hart, the famous Broadway favor
lite, plays the leading role, which
abounds in situations demanding dar-
ing and courageous acting. In the
first scene, the country is alarmed by
advice that Jim Stokes, the "Two-Gun
Man" is in the neighborhood headed
for the border, and warning is given
to place a double guard around the
stage on its trip through the canyon.
This warning is needed, for Jim is plan
ming to hold up the stage and obtain
a package of gold on it consigned to
the express company. The stage is
seen traversing a winding roadway
through the marvellous scenery of the
Grand Canyon, and at an opportune
bend In the route Jim cleverly holds

Address of President.
The address of President Hart fol
lowed the response of Mr.. King. Mr.
Hart began by referring to events that
had transpired since the bankers OF
Mississippi last held a meeting. In
Guided in these references were the
operation of the banking law. the Eu
ropean war, establishment of federal
reserve banks, formation of cotton
pool to help the Southern farmers, il
necessary; and efforts of the secre
tary of the treasury of the United
States. to form some plan to help the
South. He said that while none of the
plans to help the farmer were taken
advantage of it showed the people Of
the earth that farmers of the South
land were not going to be left In the
lurch.. but assisted, if assistance was
necessary, that such moral influence
and support brought about reactions
that sent cotton upward after it had
hit the toboggan, and has resulted in
Southern farmers having more conf
dence in their own countrymen.
Mr.. Hart first discussed the 1914
banking law, which has been in opera
| ton about year. He stated very
frankly that ave have gotten along
with the law much better than we ex
pected we would" saying that the
banks of Mississippi were in better
shape today than they ever were. He
said, and still insisted that it is mot

than we all expected it would" Mr.

CROP PROSPECTS ARE
GOOD, FARMERS SAY

Farmers of this section talked to in
the last few days declare that crop
prospects at this time are exceedingly
bright. They say that planting is well
advanced, in many instances corn is
several inches high and the cotton is
up to a good stand
Sweet potatoes are now being set
out and the farmers state that large
quantities Of these tubers will be rails
ed this year.
Those who raise Irish Potatoes in
this county declare that the potato
plants are doing excellent and barring
attacks from potato bugs and other
enemies should make a splendid yield,
new potatoes coming on the market
some time in June.
The farmers assert that the cotton
acreage in this county has been ma
terially reduced and say that the indi
cations are an exceptionally large corn
crop will be reaped this fall. At least
the corn is planted and UP to date is
doing well, though of course subject to
the dangers from drouth and other en-
emies.
It is claimed this county will also
raise more stock this year than has
ever before been the case, and that
farmers who heretofore were content
with a few scrub COWS and minimum
number of hogs are now improving
their cattle and specializing on hogs

worked hardships on banks in other
states where it had been tried was be-
cause the law had gone into effect
Immediately after it's passage, giving
the banks scant opportunity to pre-
pare for drastic changes. In Missis-
sippi it was different, and he thought
the legislature acted wisely in giving
the banks more than a years time in
which to prepare to come under the
guarantee of deposit clause. He ex-
pressed the belief that where here
tofore some banks feared examination,
now they welcomed it, and that fully
95 per cent of the financial institu-
tons of the state approved of bank
examinations.
Taking up the federal reserve act,
he said he was sure it had been of no
benefit, or injury either, to the coun-
try banks, with which he was familiar
I'VE who operate country banks"
said Mr.. Hart, would never know,
from actual experience, or in the
course of business, that there was
such a thing as the federal reserve
system He though it perhaps was
a great benefit to the larger institu-
lions of the country and docs some
good" as he expressed it. Speaking
from the standpoint of country
banker, however, he had no opportun-
ity of discussing the federal reserve
act from experience.
Taking up the European war he said
in part:
Since we last met together there
has been great upheaval abroad, and
in the great financial centers, but we
have withstood the shocks well over
here in America. At the beginning of
the war the south had prepared to
make great crop. The farmers of
the south produced a good crop of
cotton. but it was predicted that the
war would ruin them, that there would
be no market for the staple. but
things worked out better than anyone
predicted Secretary of the Treasury
McAdoo invited representatives of the
south to Washington for a conference
on the situation, and while practically
nothing came of it, the moral infiu-
ence was felt and it was of great ben
eft later on. At any rate, while the
outcome of the conference was doubt
full, it showed he and others of the
government were interested in lend
ing aid to the southern farmers, and
it had its effect"
Mr.. Hart spoke of the proposed
$135, 100000 cotton POOL formed by J.
Festus Wade, of ST. Louis, saying that
while the money was not borrowed to
any extent to speak of it served a good
purpose, as it served notice to the
world that the south was not to sacri-
fee her cotton
In closing his address Mr.. Hart re-
ferred to the present day opportuni- |
ties of the young business men, say
ing:
1.-The young BUSINESS men of today |
have as great, if not greater oppor-
than ever before. There is a |
place of influence and usefulness for
every capable, honest, energetic and |
sober young man IN the state. The |
outlook was never brighter for young |
men than right now"
