Or. Young Resigns As
County Health officer,

DR.. }. w. Young resigned few days
ago as county health officer OF Grenada
county. a place he has filled with great
credit to himself and to the best inter-
ests of the county for about Gozen
years. Doctor Young felt that he was
compelled to take this step as a matter
of justice to himself. The law has
been so ampltied and enlarged as to
require great deal more at the hands
of the county health officer and DR..
Young was never known to shirk a
duty nor to fail to live fully up to any
obligation. Among the additional du-
ties required of the county health Off
Ger is the visiting of the schools of the
county, a matter that within itself
would require 30 days for even this
county, and when it is remembered
that the compensation allowed the
health officer in this county was only
$3.50. 90 per annum it will at once be
seen that that officer cannot afford to
furnish his own conveyance and even
visit the schools for the salary fixed
by the supervisors. 1t is to be regret
ted that the supervisors did not see fit
to raise the salary as the place means
much to the life and the physical de-
velopment of the children of the
county as well as to the health of the
general public.
Dr. Young retires with the welcome
plaudlt of the public, well done good
and faithful servant.

hOffd. CARPENTER and Mccormick.

The board of supervisors of the coun-
ty had delicate duty to perform in
naming the three members of the ad-
visory committee to act with them in
the matter of making the expenditures
for permanent road building, and in
meeting such duty, it was not to be
expected that everybody would be Just
exactly pleased. The three gentlemen
named are among the county's best and
most worthy citizens and there can not
be aught said against them. The three
appointees are: W. B. Hoffa, K. F..
Carpenter and w. H. Mccormick. Mr..
Hoffa has devoted more time to push
ing good roads than any other fifty
citizens together in the county and the
board could not have laid it's hands on
one more admirably adapted for the
place, and it is well understood that the
other two members will be Just as zeal
Gus and as faithful as MIR. Hoffa. Had
the writer been making the appoint
ments, he would have had one of the
members to come from the western
portion of the county, but now that the
appointments have been made, it is the
duty of every patriotic citizen to put
his shoulder to the wheel to help make
the important work to be done a sue
cess from every viewpoint. The places
carry no compensation and can appeal
only to the public spirit of the commit
tee. The committee is a good one.

Business of The Matter. Animals
to be Placed in Each Beat.

The Illinois Central train be airing the
five Hereford bulls to be donated to the
baby beef clubs of Grenada County o.
rived Tuesday. The bulls we. Chancery
from Omaha, Neb., and were wi on
passenger trains the whole way. They
are fine specimens. weighing from /, 100
to |, 800 pounds.
With the party, to make formal
tender of the animals, were J. c. Clair,
at the head of the industrial and i'm
migration department of the railroad ;
ID. B. Harper of Memphis, one of MIR
Clair's assistants; H. j. Schwietert,
travelling industrial and immigration
agent. and several of the farm demon
strators employed by the railroad in
this state.
Grenada County's Live Stock Asso-
citation had anticipated the coming of
these gentlemen and the bulls, and had
arranged for formal reception of the
railroad officials in order that due ex-
preston might be given by the county
| for the donation of the animals to be
left in their midst
Besides members of the live stock
stock association, perhaps 50 others as
sembled at the city hail. where Mr..
Clair was presented and talked at
length of the purposes of the railroad
and what he hoped to grow out of the
movement initiated by the railroad.
Mr.. Clair is very attractive speaker
and made fine impression upon all
present. Besides him, several Others
of his party made short talks, anc
then several of the local citizens were
called upon.
The meeting was very happily pre-
sided over by Hon. Cowies Horton who
by the way. showed the art Of ar ole
timer at this duty, ard was truly {

of the county. The point was empha
sized that it was business proposition
with the railroad making the donation:
of the bulls, and that the sooner thos
to whom the animals were committed
realized that il was business propo
sition the sooner will the county get OF
that road to better success and pros
perity which res IS so largely with VIVA
its own people do.

of the county, where ne will be cor

Carpenter, member of the board from
