Our School.

There is no such thing as edu-
cation without study and effort on
the part of the one who is being
educated. Power, position, repu-
tation, and honor are all within
the grasp of the diligent student.
Yet we are so used to schools and
education that we forget how much
they mean to us. Last year there
were thirty four students who were
neither tardy nor absent during
the, school year. However, each
year there are others who fail in
their grades because they are kept
out of school so much that they
become discouraged and lose out.
Let each of us do our best to min
imize failure, and give the children
what they deserve from us.
Those students who graduated
in 1913, and their occupations are
as follows:
Polly Cora Ard, graduated from
Business College, Bristol, Va,
clerk; Warren Brown, Central
Lumber Co.. Vencen Bonfglio, one
year at University of Chattanooga,
student John Hopkins; Myron Buie,

centers, in numbering and mining
districts, in construction camps,
in new manufacturing villages, in
shipyards, at army posts and along
the Canal Zone.
Opportunity, such as our Lord
presented in vain to the rich young
ruler, has been seriously accepted
by men who have found through
the Association a way to minister
to multitudes of men in their time
of peculiar need. Chicago's ST.
300, 900 Mems Hotel now towering
to its completion is but one of a
long list of undertakings carried
through by Mr.. Cyrus Mccormick
and group of other unselfsh bus
mess and professional men who
have made the Chicago Association
a source of strength to struggling
youth. The eleven Association
centers now being provided for the
employees of the Colorado Fuel
and Iron Company is but one more
kindly expression of long line of
investments which Mr.. John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., has made to give
men "a fair chance to develop
and maintain their manhood.

great number one-half are youths
under twenty. Nearly two hun
dred thousand work with their
hands; one in every seven is in an
educational class studying at night
after working all day. Over sew
enty per cent are training in the
gymnasium to keep themselves
physically fit. One in every four
is engaged in Bible study.
To the habit-handicapped man
the Association has gone with its
message of complete deliverance
and freedom. The young man
who "made a mistake, who
drifted in his boyhood into the
wrong crowd and with the wrong
crowd went the wrong way, is set
right and given more than advice

and up to place of moral safety

TYPEWRITER MAN is HELD.
Judge Guynes Reduces Bond But Be-
Ileves Grand Jury Should Pass
on the Case.

Another legal stitch was taken
Thursday in a case that has at.
tracted more than the usual
amount of interest on account OF
the varied aspects it has assumed
and developed within the past two
weeks when it was first docketed,
being that of H. c. Bare, alias l..
A. James, of Birmingham, Ala,
charged on two counts with grand
larceny the alleged crime being
that of attempting to purloin two
typewriters, the properties of At
torney ]. w. Cassidy and the
Brookhaven Bank & Trust Co.
The case up Thursday was a
habeas corpus hearing before Cir
cult Judge Jasper F. Guynes in an
effort to have Bare (or James, re-
leased from custody under a bond
of 5000 to await the action of the
grand jury imposed by Justice r.
S. Butler the day after he was ap-
pretended. After this decision by
the Justice, Bare meanwhile being
an occupant of the county Jail on
account of is inability to make the
bond, he, through his attorney
brought suit for $4,000 damages
against a Brookhaven business
man, alleging that the defendant
had used actionable language
against him on the day of the JUS
tees trial, the declaration stating
that he called Bare Tor James, "a
highwayman, cut throat, despera-
do and robber," and asking for
$40, 900 as compensatory damages
and $40, 900 as punitive damages.
Only few witnesses were used
at the corpus hearing, among them
being w. D. Davis, of the Brook
haven Bank & Trust Co., Attorneys
]. A. Maui and ]. H. Sumrall,
and H. F. Middleton, prominent
farmer, who talked with Bare just
before he took the train with the
typewriters' at Montgomery sta
tion, 6 miles north of here, and
whose testimony in the main was
anything but favorable to the de-
fendant.
The only relief offered Bare by
the trial before the Circuit Judge
was a reduction of $4,000 90 on his
bond, which was sufficient to ena-
BILE him to get sureties for the re-
naming 5000 to insure his appear
ance before the grand jury next
fall.

The Ladies of the Altar Society
held one of the most delightful
meetings, on Monday afternoon,
at the home of Mrs. Thos. Evans.
Mrs. Evans was assisted by her

GETTING READY FOR CONVENTION.
Trade Board Winding Up Arrange
ments for Big Highway Gather
ing Here March IL.

The Brookhaven Board of Trade
are completing arrangements for
the holding of a big Jeff Davis
Highway Convention here on
March IL, the route south of Jack
son, Miss, for this state long ma
tional highway being the only
route that will be considered by
this convention, many assurances
already having come in that it will
be largely attended, probably not as
large as the 5, 900 or more people
who went to the Grenada gather
ing on March 2, for a similar pur-
pose, especially north of the state
capital, but there is every reason
to believe that the proposed gath
ering here will be representative
one of business people, members of
the various boards of supervisors
of the counties interested, and
members of boards of trade and
city leagues that will determine
on result that will be satisfactory
to the majority of the people of
south Mississippi in reference to
the highway.

year more meetings have been held
in shop and factory, in engine and
round-house; more Bible classes
have been conducted in high
schools and between decks on ships
and in mines and camps; evangel-
istic campaigns have been conduct
ed in more colleges and universi-
ties; more religious services have
been led by physical and educa-
tional directors; more religious
assemblies have been convened in
Association halls, and have been
attended with larger results, than
in any year in the history of the
movement.
To the genuine Christian the
call of need is the call to serve.
Increasing opportunities demand
increasing equipment and a sac
rifcial giving of time and
strength. Men are called upon by
God not to contribute to the Asso-
citation, but through 1t to contrib
ute. to help young men at that time
of life and in that stress of circum-
stances when help counts for most
to qualify them. for right living
and for heroic and unselfish serv-

The Leader learns with inexpres-

conceived in the minds of citizens
of Brookhaven the idea of a Y. M.

organization. God-speed them to

stration and open the minds of the
people for its cordial reception.

PIKE COUNTY TO ORGANIZE
TO BUILD GOOD ROADS

Magnolia will hold a mass meet
ing on March 20 for the purpose of
the citizens getting together and
discussing the question of the
county securing the Jefferson Dav-
is Highway running from Mem
phis to Beauvoir, the Old Soldiers
Home. Every citizen of the coun-
ty is interested in this movement
and it is to be hoped that a large
and representative crowd will
meet, says the Gazette. 1t is un-
derstood that this road will leave
the |. c. R. R. at Hazlehurst, and
it is believed with the proper
effort, that Pike County can pur-
suade the commission to extend the
road to Magnolia before branch
ing off from the railroad. Should the
effort prove successful and the
highway should be run through
this section, it will be of great
benefit to the county and the pres
ence of every citizen is urgently
requested at the meeting.
Let Lincoln follow suit and show
its intelligence and foresight by
usingSevery influence and making
every demand possible from every
citizen of the County for the High
way. The government has appro-,
priated millions for this purpose,
but in order to be available the
State should have a State Highway
Commission to see that the money
is properly applied.
The Legislature having failed I'd,
create the Commission, it remains
for the people to negative the 9c-
tion taken. The Governor is ian
ardent Good Roads advocate.
