Mrs. j. w. SanderSOn reports
that she has found an effective
way of destroying reaches, and
for the benefit of the house
wives who are having trouble
from the same source, she
wishes to give them the benefit
of her remedy, which is to simp-
ly place sliced cucumbers in the
places frequented by the bugs.
This, she declares, will put an
end to the bug nuisance.
Miss Drucile Crawley, of King,
was here Tuesday and filed her
application with the board of
trustees for the position of teach
err of the 4th, 9Th and 9th grades.
Miss Crawley is a graduate of
the Industrial Institute & Col
lege, at Columbus, and has had
three years experienced in teach
ing. We feel that our board
would indeed be fortunate to Sc
cure the services of this splendid
young lady.
J. G. Foulks, one of our most
valued citizens, has purchased
a magnificent home on the Y. &
M. V. railroad, about sixty miles
above New Orleans. He left a
few weeks ago to take charge of
his new home, and will be fol-
lowed a few months later by
his family. We regret very much
to see this estimable family
leave our town, as their removal
will be a distinct loss to the
business, religious and social life
of Brandon.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Burns, of
Denver, COL, arrived this week
for a visit to Mr.. and Mrs. H. c..
Washburn and other Brandon
friends. Mr.. Burns is a native
of Vicksburg, and prior to his
going to Denver eight years ago
he frequently visited Brandon,
and made many friends who are
delighted to welcome he and his
attractive wife to our town, and
we are glad to know that they
are seriously considering the
proposition of making Brandon
their permanent home.
L. S. May, who has been given
a trip to New York, Washington
and other points of interest, by
the American Tobacco Co.,
whose interests he represents IN
this territory, will leave tomor-
row night, and will be absent
for ten days or two weeks. Mr..
May will visit the factory where
the famous Tuxedo, the best
smoking tobacco in the world, is
made. And, by the way, if you
are smoker, and want genuine
pipe joy, fill up your pipe with
Tuxedo and go to it.
Thirteen farm Gamers were
brought into Brandon this
week, seven for this town and
six for parties at Goshen Springs.
These machines were ordered
through Miss Ruby Palmer,
president of the local Canning
Club. This is a good omen, and
we are glad to know that our
people are turning their atten-
ton to the Importance of saving
everything on the place by can
ming everything in sight. The
Brandon Tomato Club is doing
splendid work, and the members
feel very much encouraged over
the outlook. The members
were delightfully."- entertained
Thursday afternoon by Miss
Ruth Roberts. The next meet
ing which will occur next Thurs
