coLLUD GEM'MAN VOLUNTEERS
TO SHOW HER HATTiEs
BURG's BRIGHT LIGHTS.

Mary Richie, 81, tried to break her
Gulfport (Miss.) training into a Hat
tiesburg fox trot repertoire last night.
and now she is sorry.
She saw the Grunewald's "cave of
the high Winds" and the dusky dane
ing couples of the Jumble-Eye, and
the blaze of the many candle-pOwer
in the Red Onion Cafe, and when the
crowning dawn was tipping the top of
the Carter building with the rise of
yesterday, her limp form, overturned
and overdined and overdanced, was
taken from the arms of an escort,
placed on the front porch of a Mo-
bile street building, and a colored doc
tor called. He had her removed to
the interior of the building, where a
temporary hospital was established,
and they went to work to repair Mary.
Mary is the cook in a prominent
Gulfport home. The Arcadian still
ness of the coast city gnawed upon
Mary's high spirit. She had heard of
Hattiesburg and it's East Jerusalem
quarters and its Mobile street and its
Baptist Bottoms, and the sound was
nice. She boarded Gulf and Ship
Island passenger train, and when she
alighted, there were many negro Beau
Brummels there to extend the hand of
hospitality.
One man, whose name the police
have not learned, was particularly i'm
pressed with Mary's looks. He also
liked the looks of Mary's pocketbook.
1t looked to be healthy pocketbook.

SECURE, SAYS PORTER
HATTIEsBuRe's EDUCATIONAL IN
sT.TuTIoNs TO KEEP IN
rHE FOREFRONT.

The largest crowd of the week heard
DR.. Porter last night at the First Bap-
tist Church in his humorous lecture,
"a Better Times A-coming." DR.. Por-
ter is an optimist, and with many
facts and figures, and with much hui
NOR, proved that this is the best age
of the worlds history. In business,
in society, in politics, in education. in
religion, he showed by contrast with
other days that "the good old times
are figment of the imagination, and
that in spite of the horrors of the
European conflict, not only for Amer
lea, but for the world, better day
is just ahead.
DR.. Porter spoke cheering word to
the business men of Hattiesburg, as he
pointed out the resources of South
Mississippi, and showed the folly of
pessimistic spirit. He poured out
much good-natured ridicule on the
crouch, the wilmer, the man or wom-
an who always sees the dark side OF
things. The future of Hattiesburg,
he declared, is secure for many rea-
sons, chief among them being the edu-
cational interests, which are being
so zealously fostered. He paid high
tribute to the president and trustees
of the Woman's College, calling atten-
tion to it's phenomenal growth, and
showing what such an institution in
evitably must mean to every good In
terest of the community.
The program for today, the last
day of the Bible Institute, was as
usual-Prof. Thames on the Book OF
Job, the Rev. G. S. Dobbins in a final
lecture on "The Character of Jesus
as Preacher" DR.. Porter in an in
spirational address at IL o'clock, and
DR.. Christian and the Rev. J. p. vii
liams in the afternoon.
At the concluding session yesterday
it was determined to arrange for the
institute next year, with DR.. Christian
as dean and the Rev. T. ]. Moore as
business manager. They were giver
full authority to provide for program
place of meeting, etc. Many hearty
expressions of appreciation were made
of the work of the institute and the
hospitality of the people of Hatties
burg in the entertainment Of visitors
The closing hour of the weeks worl
will be at 1880 tonight, in the audi
torium of the First Church, in great
revival service. DR.. Porter, who Is
widely known for his evangelistic pow
ers, will preach.
