One thousand and fifteen children

>The contract for the Second South
Forked Deer River drainage project
was awarded few days ago to Stern
berg Bros, of st. Louis. This con-
tract calls for the expenditure of $117,-
900 in the construction of bitches and
canals in Haywood Crockett, Dyer and
Lauderdale counties. There will be ten
miles of canals and four miles of
bitches, involving the moving of 1,700r
900 cubic yards of earth. The work
will start as soon as the bonds are APP
proved. 1t is estimated that 10000
acres of land in the four counties af-
fected will be drained by the system.

this year will doubtless measure up
to the high standard of efficiency for
which this school is noted.

had planned several days previous.
After plunging a fve-inch dagger,
made from an old file, into Patterson's
heart, he deliberately walked into the
Office of the guard and turned over
the weapon to the officials. He refused
to discuss the killing, merely stating
that he was mad at Patterson and that
the killing was justified. 0verton is
