The first real element of preparedness,
says Congressman Hobson, is to be
sober The Colonel demands conscrip-
ton, somebody else wants military train
ing in the schools, others want the big
gest navy in creation and standing
army of two or three million men.
Almost every patriot has tad and is
riding it furiously. The danger is in over
doing the preparedness business and
putting rational defense plans in disre-
pute with the people. The first element
of preparedness, as Mr.. Hobson suggests,
is to be sober. Another is to be sensible.

A large decrease in the consumption of
liquor is reported by the U. S. Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue in his annual
report. The decrease is more than nine
millions of gallons. This the Commits
sioner attributes to the spread of the
prohibition sentiment and the "expan-
SION of dry territory. The prohibition.
lists are quick to seize on this fact as an
achievement of their anti-liquor cam
paign. 1t is significant, too, that the
same report shows marked deci ease in
the consumption of tobacco, and this
moves the anti-prohibitionists to use the
argument that the wave of economy
which followed the European war ae
counts for the lowered expenditures for
these commodities and that the prohi-
bitionists have nothing much to do whit.

the supervisors of the various Missis
sippi counties show interest in the
matter by putting the road in as good
condition as possible, the Mississippi
route will be selected.
He told the supervisors that the
committee had conferred with the
owners of gravel along the Easta-
butchie road and that if the county
would put its work crew out there the
gravel would be furnished at no cost
to the county. In the name of the
committee he asked that the work be
started at once.
President Pace hesitated to start
the work because the term of office
of the present board will expire on
January LIST and this board has no way
of knowing whether the incoming
board Will finish the work.
Mr.. Conn suggested that the board
go on record as being willing to build
the road up to any specifications that
may be adopted for the whole route.
President Pace said that the present
board will not be in office when the
road was built and that 1t could not
commit its successors. Mr.. Robins, on
behalf of the Commercial Club COM
mittee, also said he thought it would
be better for the board to begin work

Mr.. Rea urged the board not to de-

that the pathfinders undoubtedly will
be impressed with the fact that work
is in progress if they find the crew at

through.
Supervisor J. L. Davis also agreed
with this view, and that seemed to be
the prevailing sentiment of the board
when the committee left it,

definite action on the matter this aft

the wind at that time was blowing a
gale of 100 miles an hour, but they
are of the opinion that the seamen. OF
the vessel and the passenger reached
port in safety.
The crew of the Dauntless at the
time of the gale were near Clusky, a
small village in the neighborhood of
Bayou Lamaire. Not knowing where
they were they deserted the vessel
and clung to the tops of trees, with
water reaching as high as their necks,
spending several hours in that way.
Albert Hoffman, who was crippled,
was placed in the highest position.
The members of the crew later made
their way to the Dauntless, which
floated near them. The following
morning they rescued a French trap
per, who had been out in canoe after
game. The man had lost his entire
family, it later developed. The boat
men the next morning rescued five
families near Clusky, all of whom
were almost in starved condition.

ited a scene of desolation met their
eyes. A school house, church and a
number of buildings had been wreck
ed by the hurricane.
In speaking of the loss of life at
Bayou Lamaire and in that vicinity,
members of the party stated that at
Brazier they knew of sixteen who
were caught under falling houses.
Antonio Palmer and Archie Thomp-
son, two Biloxians on the fishing
smack Comet, plying in the Louisiana
were in Mussel Bayou when
the hurricane struck them. The men
were forced to sail for Dunbar, La.
They left Dunbar Thursday morning
and walked to Biloxi, distance of
miles, reaching here yester-
day. The men had nothing to eat for
two days and until they reached BIZ
