THE WAR SITUATION
EUROPE INVOLVED

1t now looks like a worldwide war is
upon us and that soon every nation of the
earth will be engaged in the gigantic strug-
gle against Germany and the dual empire
Austria and Hungary.
1t is pity it's true, and there is now no
factor at hand that will stop the bloody car
mage and the destruction of so much valua-
bic property and business, yet there is an
end to all things, and it will come in time.
But why worry, when there really seems
to be one thing that there is NO END TO
and that is the wonderful values we are con-
tinually placing on sale in our house, and
which you will never be able to take advan-
tage of unless you will read our ADS or
visit our store in search of these good
things
Now in another week, say about Monday,
June 7th, we are going to announce another
one of those splendid Monday Morning
Sales, where we really put out our best eff
forts to give the trade some talking values.
Those who were wide-awake for Bargains
and attended our last Monday Morning Sale
were so surprised that they left the house
praising our offerings, and soon the word
was passed around, and 10, the populace
turned our way.
Now just word, kind friends. Don't
you think the ads in your local paper are
worth scanning?
How do you expect your home merchant
to do business unless he advertises2 How
can the local papers exist without the help
of the advertising space sold?
How do you expect to know when your
home merchant has anything good to offer
unless you keep in touch with him?
How do you find what the department
store in distant city has to offer unless
you read it in their ads. It's funny, but
there is many an order going out of Brook
haven every week for items that could be
bought at home for the same or less money,
and YOU SEE WHAT YOU ARE GET
h TING BEFORE YOU PAY OUT YOUR
CASH. IF 1T ISN'T RIGHT YOU
SEND 1T BACK FOR CREDIT IN A
MOMENT.

Mrs. StaffIer'S Recital.

Mrs A. Staffier, jr.. pleased
every patron of her studio by pre-
senting her large music class on
Monday evening in a recital in the
Public School Auditorium, her
work having been done in connec-
tion with that institution
Something like 400 little fingers
made music for the interested au-
dience who very much appreciated
the difficulties IN the way of very
young piano players and the effort
incumbent upon a teacher who con-
scientlously serves her patrons.
The progress of these young per-
formers will be duly noted through
future commencements, by the
gratified contingent OF friends and
partons who attended on Thursday
evening their first annual recital.
The lovely appearance of the lit
tie girls, their childish grace snd
ambition to do we'll their parts in
spite of their timidity before a
public audience made the program
of thirty-six numbers a shifting
scene of charming personalities and
varied achievement of those whose
names represented many of our
music loving families.

EXPECTED TO USE AU-
TOS' ON RURAL ROUTE
Inspection of Roads By Government
Man Will Determine Result
rs Mile Routes.

Postmaster W. P. Cassidy has
about completed his part of the
work for the postal department
preparatory to the combining of
rural routes out of Brookhaven by
he use of autos for the carriers.
which, if established about July
lst. as contemplated, will make
each combined route about rs miles
in length. the mail man in the car
being expected to cover this dis
tance each day.
The only obstacle that will pre-
vent this new kind of service being
ordered by the government in this
section will be the condition of the
roads. government inspector be-
ing due in few days to pass on
this part of the matter. The gov
ernment, in this part of the postal
service works on the plan that if
the roads are not passable on the
routes to be covered no mail is to
be delivered by the carrier to the
patrons en- such a route until they
are put in such shape that he can
travel them, which will insure in
this county, anyway, a more strict
supervision over the road contract
by both patrons of the routes
en masse and the Board of Supervi-
sors.
The auto mail carrier is now en-
plnyed by Uncle. Sam. and in most
sections of the Northern States.
where the roads are kept in better
condition than In the South, the
carriers use them all the year
round.
The new proposed arrangement
here is only preliminary step
which if satisfactory will be followed
by putting in cars on the routes out
of Bogue Chitto, ten miles south Of
here. which now has five routes and
at Wesson. ten miles north, which
has seven.
