An appeal to the people to clean up
and remove rubbish, trash and waste
from their premises as precaution
against fire is made by Gov. Dunno In
proclamation naming Oct. . as state
fire prevention day.
zone Of the vital problems which
calls upon our people for solution"
says the proclamation. "is the situa.
tion with regard to the waste Of en-.
ergy and resources Of the country by
fire. Our forests are being preserved,
our water power and waterways de-
veloped and utilized and the hidden
forces of nature conserved and made
subservient to the we'll being Of man.
It therefore seems to me to be emil
nently At and proper that we should
also direct our attention to the un.
necessary waste of our property as.
sets and to the appalling loss Of life
by fire."
In his recommendation for observ.
ance Of the day the governor says:
Let all heating apparatus. electric
wiring and chimneys be carefully
gone over and placed In proper con.
dition for winter use.
Let all public and private institu.
tions, hotels, asylums, factories and
theaters be carefully looked over on
that day and. when necessary, any
changes made that will further pro.
tect the safety Of the occupants.
LET local authorities give attention
to the matter OF better building reg
ulations. fire protection and preven.
tion, as we'll as added apparatus for
fire fighting.
Let fire drills be held on that day
In institutions. factories and on the
preceding day in public, parochial and
private schools, and earnestly rec
ommend that teachers instruct their
pupils. through short talks and prop
er programs. on the dangers Of fire
and the simple means Of fire preven'
tiOn."

quently. Mrs. Gait spent a month this
summer at Cornish as a guest of the
Presidents eldest daughter.
1t was through the intimacy of his
daughter and cousin with Mrs. Gait
that the President had an opportunity
to meet and know her. One of the
most interesting facts about the en-
gagement, indeed, as told by friends,
is that the Presidents daughters chose
Mrs. Gait for their admiration and
friendship before their father did.
Mrs. Gait is the widow of a well
known business man of Washington,
who died eight years ago, leaving a
jewelry business that still bears his
name. She has lived in Washington
since her marriage, in 1896. She is
about SO years old and was Miss Edith
Boiling, born in Wytheville, Va, where
her girlhood was spent and where her
father, William Boiling, was a promi-
nent lawyer.

market SCARS BUT
| LITTLE COTTON SOLD
LOCAL BUYERS PAY ~ CENTS FOR
THE ORDINARY GRADE OF
THE PRODUCT.

With the market up several points,
spot cotton of the usual grade sold in
tHattiesburg today for ~ cents, and
buyers, merchants, farmers, and 9TH
ers were accordingly elated.
In local cotton circles the opinion
was the market would remain firm, es.
pecially in view Of the undisputed
shortness Of the crop, weather condi-
tions that are making picking difficult
and damaging the opening crop and a
government report that is decidedly
bullish.
1t is recalled that some days ago a
local buyer predicted twelve-cent cot
ton for october when the market was
less than ten cents. 1t is claimed that
the demand for cotton Is steadily in
creasing and there are some in this
city who are optimistic enough to be-
lieve that cotton will climb to fourteen
or possibly fifteen cents during the
fall. Buyers decline to pass an opin-
ion on this.
1t was stated that offerings of spot
cotton in Hattiesburg were slow and
that the farmers are in no hurry to
turn loose even at IL cents. 1t is also
contended that this fall the farmers
are nearer than ever to independence
and that great amount of the staple
raised was produced without calling
on merchants for backing.
1t is certain that the increased price
of cotton has helped business in Hat
tiesburg and local merchants are very
optimistic over the outlook, declaring
there is every reason to expect a
steadily increasing business until time
for the annual Christmas rush.
1t is noticeable that in spite of a
good demand and price for corn that
grain is not being offered in large
quantities this fall and the farmers are
seemingly holding this crop for their
own consumption.
