REGRET SEEING SABBATH LEAVE
DOMESTIC COURT

Some regrets have been expressed
to The Day Book over the proposed
switching of Judge SABBATH from the
court of domestic relations to the
speeders' court, as announced in
Chief Justice Olson's assignments,
made public today. The switch is to
take place Monday. Judge Hopkins
is to take the domestic relations
court.
The feeling in favor of SABBATH is
in no way a slight on Hopkins, who is
considered a very just Judge. Here
is the argument that has brought
about the regrets. SABBATH speaks
seven languages and the domestic re-
lations court naturally caters to all
nationalities. 1t is argued that a per-
son is able to get better action when
their story can be told direct to
Judge instead of through an inter-
prefer.

Company was recently instituted in
the circuit court here. J. o. Fraser
sues the company for $4,000 damages
for its failure to give phone connec-

fire department was not informed
where the fire was and water pressure
not put on by the water works, where
by the fire department was delayed

his house and furnishings were total

MEMORIAL EXERCISES DRAW CROWD GENE
Terry, WHERE RESTING
PLACES OF 27 SLEEPING Observation-Disclosures DELIVERED
BY GEORGE

Flowers are banked high on the graves
of 27 sovereigns, departed members of
Leaf River Camp No. 2S, Wo0dmen Of
the World, today, following memorial
day exercises conducted yesterday af-
ternoon in the City Cemetery. And
the graves of those Woodmen buried
in the Hickory Grove cemetery, also,
are covered with flowers, the Hatties-
burg lodgemen having visited that
place following the ceremonies here.
In spite of the warm afternoon, a
good-sized crowd attended the exer-
cises at the City Cemetery. AT
o'clock the procession headed by the
Woodmen's Band and the degree team
of Leaf River Camp, marched to the
cemetery, where the memorial address
was delivered by George w. Currie.
r. S. Hall had been scheduled to de-
liver this address, but was called out
of town. After the address, flowers
were placed on the q graves, and the
sovereigns then left for Hickory
Grove:
Mr. Currie's address discussed the
relations and obligations existing be-
tween the living sovereign and the
camp; between the living soyereigns
and the beneficiaries or dependents
of the deceased member, and then be-
tween the living sovereigns and the
departed brothers.
The numerical strength; financial
growth and fraternal beneficence OF
Woodcraft were stressed. 1t was
pointed out that the Woodmen today,
although only years old, have almost
a million active members; that they
have a billion dollars Of insurance in
force; that they have paid not less
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1915-06-07

than forty million do;ars in benefits
and in insurance; and that they have
reserve fund of $25,0O0,OOO, which
guarantees fulfllment of every obliga-
tion toward beneficiaries.
Our duties as Woodmen toward
the families of deceased members are
great" he said. "Woodcraft is like a
forest in which it is inevitable that
the winds and storms will shake and
fell the trees. 1t therefore behooves
us to prepare for the time when the
stress of life will remove us from it's
activities, and will leave our families
without support, unless we have made
provision for them"
Duties toward deceased brothers
were prominently stressed. "The Or
der of Woodmen,' he said, 'has erect
ed over 10000 monuments to the mem
DRY of our dead. We have also set
apart the 9th day of every succeeding
June as Decoration Day. We erect
these monuments as a perpetual me-
mortal of our esteem for the deceased,
but we also gather annually to place
beautiful flowers on their mounds as
an ever recurrent testimony of our
regard for them while among us, and
as the incense of our hearts in perpet-
uating their memory. Twenty-seven
Woodmen lie buried here, and we
have come to spend this hour among
them. We have already placed monu-
ments over their graves, but that
ceremony was finished once and for
ever. We come now, and we will
come on the 9Th of every June to
spread these beautiful flowers, not as
one act of love and devotion, but as
a constant and ever recurring tribute
to their memory"
