IN MOVING FAMILY

Walt Bay City, Miss, March 60
Messrs. Ripley Ferguson and Walter
Nixon had rather bad experience
last Saturday, when they to Oak
Grove to move Mr.. McDory and family
to this place. Returning, in an attempt
to cross a bridge over swollen creek
near Manned, the wagon in some man.
ncr struck a plank fastened to near
by tree. This jerked the horse down
into the water. 1t was so dark that the
boy could not see, and Ripley Fergu-
son jumped into the water in an cf-
fort to keep the horses head M and
prevent its drowning, while his com
panion cut the harness. Despite his
efforts the horse drowned and he
came near losing his own life.
The two boys walked four miles
home. Friends sympathize with Mr..
Ferguson over the loss of the valuable
animal right at crop time.

SEVERE CRITICISM
AROUSES COLUMBUS

Columbus, Miss, March 30.-Arous-
ed to action by the severe indictment
of Dr. Willis Valley, chief sanitary
inspector of the Mississippi Board of
Health who in an address recently de-
Iiyered here. declared Columbus to be
one of the filthiest cities in the state,
members Of the Ladies' Civic League,
under whose direction a campaign for
cleanliness is to be prosecuted during
the week of April 10, have decided to
rct0rh'e their efforts and will endeav-
or 10 place The city in such spck-
and-span condition that Or. Valley
can find no cause for com plant when
he makes his next visit, which will be
con after the campaign which has
nean concluded.
Il seems to be generally conceded
here that the present mode of sanitary
adequate. Under the provisions of the
city charter the enforcement Of the
sanitary laws and ordinances is under
the direction of Board of Health con-
sisting of lawyer, a merchant and
two physicians. The two physicians
receive 500 per annum each for their
services, while the remaining mem
bers draw no salaries Under this sys
tenn adequate sanitary inspection is
impossible, and Mr. Valley urged the
appointment of single inspector, who !
would be paid fair salary and be re- |
quired to devote his entire time 10 the |
work.
