STATE CHARITY HOSPITAL At HOUSTON

During the last session Of the state legislature effort
was made to secure State Charity Hospital for North
Mississippi and both the OUTGOING andincOming governors
have recommended the present legislature that ap
preparation be made for this purpose.
South Mississippi already has five Of these institutions
and is reported that they accommodate the large
number of charity patients sent them it almost
certainty that appropriation will be made by the
sent legislature to build hospital of this kind in North
Mississippi
Should an institution Of this kind be built for this part
of the state should be located where it would
date the people all the time Houston is Without Doubt
the Ideal Place For This Hospital be Built We located al
most exactly in the central part of North Mississippi and
have railroad coming to from every direction This
Central Location u Make ths institution More Accumulation to
Greater Number People Than Would Be Should be Built in Any
Of the Towns Of the Main Line The size Of the town
should not make any difference in placing this institution
but LOCATION should
Besides the advantage to location, we have nice
little hospital already in estance here and feel
that an enormous of money could be saved the
by simply adding charity departments to the nsttu
ton we already have. LET US PULL FOR THIS INSTI-
TUITION SHOULD 1T BE BUILT.

PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIA-
TION.

Friday afternoon, Jan. l4th, was
the calender date for the regular
meeting of the Parent-Teacher As
sOciatiOn and so, despite the incle-
ment weather, a gOOdly number Of
members met on schedule time
thus bespeaking the deep and ear
nest heart-interest which was re-
spOnsible for this organization in
its beginning.
AS the President was absent the
duties of the chair were ably dis
charged by our Vice-President, Miss
Fairy Goza, while Miss Zilda Glad.
ney filled the place Of our Secreta-
ry, who was also absent The only
unfinished business brought for
ward was the matter of fire escapes
for our school building and it seems
that further progress in this matter
hings upon the requirement Of ale
quate funds Mrs L B Reid brought
a catalogue and explained, to the
members present, wherein the cy-
lindrifOrm escape is the safer. In
an informal way this subject was
pretty thoroughly discussed by
Mesdames Drysdale Moses, J A Ey-
ans, B Smith, Duean Shell, Walter
Jack, and Misses Susan Riley, Fairy
Goza and Alice Cambell.
After due consideration it was
decided that it was advisable to
defer the planned program till the
Feb. meeting, as the subject, School
Discipline and Punishment. is one
of first importance to all, parents
teachers and pupils. II is to be hop
ed the weather gods will cOnspire to
give us favorable weather then
when we eOnjure ye parents to
come out and lets thoroughly thresh
this subject. OF course each moth
er Of us knows that discipline and
punishment is we'll enough for the
other mothers children but the
teachers seem to be unable to
make that fine distinction that
would leave out any mothers child
if it chanced to fall under the
school law. Eh? But come out
next meeting. parents and give Us
your ideas upon the matter.
There was one feature of Fridays
meeting that ideally fitted the
weather conditions and that was
the refreshment hour. With the
opening Of the door to the DOmes.
tic Science room one felt the out
ward waited radiation Of comfort
and good cheer within; and the eve
ming hostess. Miss Hesbia Reed. and
her classmate assistant, smillingly
emphasized this welcome as they
served to their delighted guests. the

crackers. We heard many compl-
mentary expressions as to the
