Verbum Sat Sapienti

The members of the Civic
League desire to call attention to
the ordinance Of the city which
prohibits the piling of trash on
the streets in front of residences
and elsewhere.
An effort has been made to
induce everyone to buy garbage
cans in which all trash that
S hould be removed from the
premises could be placed. Many
disregard this ordinance and the
frequent requests made to keep
the trash off the streets go un-
needed. The city wagons will
not stop to take it up unless it is
placed in a garbage can.
The members of the League
again call attention to this vio-
lation of the ordinance and we
desire to impress upon all the
Importance of hereafter observ-
ing it. Civic League.

Tupelo Inspected

4 DR.. Willis Valley. chief health
inspector of the state, arrived in
gTupelo at five o'clock Tuesday
.Fnorning and Immediately began
fan inspection of the city.
DR.. Valley took an automobile
sand was driven over the city
and also visited the hotels, res
staurants, meat markets and gro
cry stores. Before leaving he
expressed to DIR. Gurney, our
county health officer, his conclu-
lions of Tupelo from a health
tandpoint. He found the resi-
dence portion of the city and our
streets in excellent condition.
He stated that he found fewer
flies in Tupelo than any town he
had visited. He reported that
s.he meat markets and hotels
were not up to the standard.
The grocery stores he found in
fairly good condition, chickens
being kept in some of them.
Just what grading Tupelo will
receive at his hands we are un-
able to say. The ladies who
have had charge of the work de-
serve much credit for their un-
firing efforts to make Tupelo the
cleanest city in the state. Their
part was well done. If Tupelo
fails to receive the coveted hon.
or it will not be their fault. The
responsibility will rest upon the
shoulders of those who failed to
cooperate with them. The work
done has brought beneficial re-
suits. The statement of DR..
VALLEY that he found fewer flies

Some Fine Samples

F. F. Filgo, manager for B. L.
Clark, brought in Wednesday
from the Chickasaw dairy farm
samples of the grain, clover and
alfalfa now on the place. The
S ample of black rust proof oats
measured 5 1-2 feet tall with the
promise of an average yield of
fifty bushels on the ten acre
patch. A magnificent sample of
winter wheat measured 4 feet
with a promised yield of thirty
on a ten acre patch. The sample
of Burt oats planted this spring
will doubtless yield 40 bushels to
the acre, on the forty acre plat.
twenty-five acres in rust proof
oats will yield 40 bushels to the
acre. There is eight acres in all
falfa, several in red clover and
several in crimson clover, all of
which promise fine yields.
Mr.. Clark is demonstrating on
this farm what can be done in
the way of raising grain and
grasses. The crop this year
promises fine returns from the
investment.

in itself repays us for the work
done in cleaning the city. The
fly is our greatest menace to
health. He is a disseminator of
numerous loathsome diseases,
and we can we'll congratulate
ourselves at the beginning of the
summer upon the fact that the
town is practically rid of them.
DIR. Valley will complete the
inspection of the state about
June l, and the result of his in

very soon thereafter.

Manual Training in the School

The board of trustees of the
Tupelo High School have set on
foot a movement to introduce
some very necessary inovations
in the curriculum of our public
school. 1t is a recognized fact
that our boys and girls leave our
high schools untitled for any
special occupation or duty in life.
The trend of sentiment against
an education which only appeals
to the head and not also to the
hand grows daily and our local
board caught the spirit of the
times and will endeavor to change
the curriculum of our high school
to a broader sphere.
In order to carry out this pur-
pose the city authorities have
been requested to order an eIec-
tion. which has been done. notice
of same appearing elsewhere, at
which the people of the city may
express their feelings in regard
to tlssse changes contemplated.
It viii require a one mill addition
al tax levy to provide the funds
to ecure the teachers and the
necessary equipment.
The Introduction of three new
studies is set forth in the follow
ing comprehensive review of the
work contemplated in each de-
partment.

serv Inches, to plan the daily

They will be instructed in
household economics to secure the
best results with the least ex-
penditure of energy, material,
time and money.

health and happiness of the
family"
