Now why can't every body in
this town use their brains as

your thoughts upon performing
your labors just little better

each day strive to move upward
on the ladder of efficiency.
When you do this you will find

you are climbing. Through
your efforts and his you will soon
reach the top, s.nd when the
proper opportunity arrives you
will become somebody ele's boss.
You will then be fairly launch

ful exercise of the brain and a
liberal use Of your hands will
lead you on TO success in life.
Brains without hands seldom
accomplish much, and hands
without the use of the brains
will most assuredly never star

In starting this movement Is making

aside a week in the public schools fos

No doubt but the influence exertenI
during this week on the young people
of the state of Mississippi will be far
reaching and the week will prove one
of the most instructive spent In thsS
school during the entire year. This
MOVEMENT is mile-post in the adj
yancement Of true education.
Study Products In Schools.
To study the products Of the state
for a week in the schools means that
the boys and girls will become familiar
with those products and thereby be-
come more interested in what tAa
state Is producing.
Professor Holden says that true edu-
cation is preparing for the duties OF
life. The studying OF the products OF
the state In the country schools for an
entire week means that the boys and
girls will be more familiar with the
crops that they are producing and will
produce on the farms In the future.
A specially prepared booklet will be
used in the schools during this week.
and let us hope that every teacher OF
the state will make use Of every op-E
portunity to interest the boys ancs
girls In the products Of the state. AuJ

have begun to raise at home their food
products instead Of sending their

AS time goes on they will not only
