EAT QUEER THINGS IN PINCH

vest, Shoelaces and Stedge
 Gear.
 There is naturally much talk in war time of rations and food supply, and the possibility or probability of starving out one or other of the bel ngerents. But it is amazing what peo- pie will eat at pinch.
 A recent arctic explorer seriously advised the wearing of skin clothing in preference to woolen, simply and solely because, if the worst came to the worst, ones outfit could be stewed for meal, or at any rate given to the dogs!
 We'll, when a man finds enjoyment and sort of inward satisfaction in a stew made of his vest, his shoelaces, and his sledge gear, he must be pret- ty "peckish," and when he gets back to civilization he will make a model Husband, never likely to turn up his nose at cold mutton on washing days.

WILL SHIP A CAR
OF HOGS FEB. IS
Farmers Invited to Cooperate
In Filling a Car for St.
Louis Market.
TAGS FURNISHED FREE
AT THE EAGLE OFFICE.

February 10 is the day set for
shipping car load Of hogs from
Oxford to St. Louis market.
Every one who has big or little
porker, or number of them, is
invited to bring them to Oxford
on that date. A car will be provid-
ed, your hogs will be tagged,
listed and shipped and each ship
per will receive his proratta part
Of the proceeds.
But, if you have hogs that you
are going to ship in this car,
don't wait until the date to ship
them before making it known.
Write to MFR. o. B. Boone, OK
ford. Miss, stating the number
Of hogs you will ship in this car.
and do it right away, so that he
will know just how many to make
arrangements to ship. This is
very important.
A few days ago the farm de-
monstrator at ,Yszoo City made
a similar announcement as this.
and on the day he was to ship
one car, he had hogs enough to
load two cars, which he did, the
farmers receiving a good price
for them.
This is cooperation. It takes
cooperation 10 accomplish any
thing worth while, and The
Eagle is ready to cooperate
with the people in any move
ment for the benefit of the gener-
al public. We will furnish the
tags for tagging your hogs free.
Call and get them.
While there are no one man
who has enough hogs to load a
car alone, there are many car
loads of hogs, around ever the
county which could be marketed
TO good advantage by all the
farmers going together and max
ing up car shipments. Mr..
Boone will not charge anything
for his services and the only ex-
psnse will be the freight, which
can be paid from the proceeds of
the sale OF the hogs.

Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. bditor'
Perhaps many of the readers
ofyour valuable paper would
like a word as to the procedure,
thus far, of the Legislature. We
are Just now organized and start
ed to work.
There have been about 100
bills introduced and some three
or four passed the lower house,
one Of which was known as the
.'Bsd Check Bill" Most of the bills
so far are appropriation bills.
There is, however, one prohi-
ton bill that is very important,
AMI should command the atten-
ton Of the people of this State.
Il asks Congress to give US a
national prohibition law. One
bill was proposed. making it law
ful for cities of 5000 or more in
hsbitants to manufacture and
sell vinous or malt liquors. 1t is
needless to say it died in the
COMMITTEES Room.
Will write again when the in
auguratiOn is over.
Respectfully yours,

OXFORD BUSINESS
MEN HOLD MEETING
Adopt Plan of Merchants Trade
Journal to Pass Pros
perity Around"
A WEEK OF BARGAINS
AND GOOD BUSINESS.

Monday night about 20 of the
leading business men of Oxford
met in the Business Mems Club
room, which is in the third story
of the opera house building, and
owned by the U F. A. and
adopted the plan of the Merchants
Trade Journal in conducting a
"Psy-Up" week in Oxford, the
same tobe held from February Il
to 20, inclusive.
The meeting was called to ord
er by c. E. Sisk, president of the
Business Mems League, and
after explaining the plan it was
decided to be the thing needed
here, and was unanimously
adopted by the League.
A committee composed of c.
E. Sisk, Heron Rowland, b. B.
Russell, H. P. Davis and G. W.
Price, was appointed with full
power to purchase all supplies in
way of advertising, and wait on
the merchants and business men
of the town and collect sufficient
funds to defray the expenses of
the necessary advertising, bill
posting, etc.
This committee got busy early
Tuesday morning and everything
necessary is being arranged for
a week of business and bar
gains.
The cooperation of every
merchant and business man in
Oxford is invited. 1t is abso-
lutely necessary that the entire
business population cooperate
to make this occasion a success.
The expense divided among the
many business houses and pro-
fessional men of the town will be
but little, and each one can pay
his part without being injured
financially.
Every merchant, every doctor,
every lawyer and men of every
other calling, either owes some
one or some one owes him. The
idea is for everybody to pay up
during that week, which will put
thousands OF dollars in circula-
ton, thereby benefitting each and
every one-merchants, farmers,
doctors, lawyers, and the entire
county.
The movement to educate the
people to pay up is along the
same line as the cleanup"
movement, and is working ad-
mireably everywhere it has been
tried.
A page in both the Oxford pa.
pers will be used in advertising
the pay-up week, besides thou
sands of posters and other adver-
tising matter will be distributed
throughout the county.
And to make this a week of
genuine business, the merchants
have agreed to offer special bar
gains in different lines of merch-
andise as an inducement to
the people of the town and coun-
try to buy goods during the pay
up week. This alone will attract
thousands of people to the city
and will be the means of putting
thousands of dollars in circulate

Gov. Bilbo's first official act,
Immediately after Chief Justice
Sidney NJ. Smith of the Supreme
/ Court had administered the oath.
was to sign the commission of
/ Col. W. A. Montgomery as state
prison trustee, an act which
Gov. Brewer had refused to per-
form.
/ The inaugural ceremony took
place before q joint session of
the House and Senate. The oath
of office, administered by Justice
smith, was preceded by a prayer
delivered bv Rev. II. NJ. King,
pastor Of the Second Baptist
church. A few minutes later,
after signing the Montgomery
commission, Gov. Bilbo delivered
his address from the stand OF the
I speaker of the House. He was
introduced by Mayors. J. Taylor,
of Jackson, his closet personal
and political friend.
REVIEWS MANY REFORMS.
. Gov. Bilbo's inaugural address
was lengthy document. 1t re-
views many reforms which the
new governor hopes to bring
about, and its central idea is the
calling of a constitutional con-
vention. The governor made il
plain that in his opinion the de-
sired reforms cannot be seeomp-
lished under the present consi-
tuition. Which was adopted
nearly 20 years ago.
I 1t had been planned to have
the ceremony take place on the
front steps of the Capital build
ing, and a shivering crowd was
assembled to witness the program
but fifteen minutes before noon,
sleet began to fall. The parade
reached the capitol and the event
took the nature of an important
concert. After some discussion,
it was decided that the oath
should be administered and the
address delivered in the House of
Representatives. When this an
nouncement was made, there was
a rush of spectators for the in
terror of the capital.
COLD INTERFERs.
The inaugural parade was
greatly curtailed by the cold and
inclement weather. 1t was too
dark for the moving picture
operators TO get good pictures OF
the governor and the event OF
the day, though several OF them
were here endeavoring to do 30.
The parade was formed at the
cornor of Mill and Capital streets
at 10:30 a. m. and moved through
the business steets to the cspl-
tol.
The new governor rode in an
automobile, with his wife and
little son, and with his father and
mother, Mr.. and Mrs. j. o. Biloo.
Members of the governors
| staff followed in other automo-
biles, arrayed in their brilliant
