political intrigue in typical American
life. In this photodrama the world

Marian Powers Mime. Kalich) is the
wife OF an ambitious assistant district
attorney. He is hopeful of promotion
by the political boss of his town. The
boss does not think well of Powers
and declares he intends selecting an
other man for the office sought bv
Powers.
Mrs. Powers, hoping to aid her hus-
band, decided to lay siege to the heart
of the boss and does so with the re-
suit that the political boss falls in love
with her and she with him. Their re-
lations, however, are entirely platonic.
Powers encourages the boss's at
tention to his wife and seeks in every
way to leave them together The boss
inadvertently learns that Powers is
willing to sacrifice his own wife for
his own political selfish ambition. The
boss, IN spite of his affection for Mrs.
Powers, does not sanction the promo
ton of Powers. Mrs. Powers realizes
the utter unworthiness of her husband
and leaves him.

NEW BOND ELECTION
ASKEDfOR RURAL HIGH
Four Districts Voting FavOrably Will
Proceed With the Plan For a High
School.

At meetings last Saturday evening
at which two members of each board
of the districts voting for the rural
high school were present, says the
Filler Journal, it was unanimously
voted to combine the four districts
which have an approximate valuation
of $1,700,000, and build the central
high school.
The next step will be to petition the
county commissioners to appoint a
board of five members who will have
the matter in charge and who will call
a bond election. This board will also
purchase the building site. The bond
election will probably be held at an
early date

Of GASOLINE YET
AUTO JUICE AND GLOVE CLEAN
ING FLUID STILL COSTS
22R CENTS.

The price of gasoline in Hatties.
burg still remains at 21h, % and 221b
cents per gallon, with but little pros
pect for drop in the near future.
The cost depends upon the point OF

Company is receiving half a cert more
per gallon for it at it's plant than any
Of the other oil companies or any of
the garages. On wagons of this COM
pany, gasoline may be purchased at
212 cents, but at the plant it is ex-
actly l cent higher. The Texas Oil
Company and the Gulf Refining Com
pany are asking 211a cents, both on
their wagons and at their plants. The
cents, and Dr. Rush's garage and the
Hattiesburg Sales & Auto Company
are getting half cent more for their
product,
Within the last month. the price of
gasoline has advanced three or four
cents.
According to the proprietors of a
local garage, the retail price of gaso-
line depends on the Standard Oil Com
pany, and whenever notice from the
company is received that an advance
in price is to take effect, this usually
occurs within two or three days.
There is nothing to indicate when
the price will decline again." he said,

1t is q problem of some moment,
and one, apparently, not as easy to
solve as it looks. Farr l. Scott, presi-
dent of the international Custom Cut
ters' Association of America told that
organization in Kansas City on Mon
day that it is law from which there
is no appeal. Chicagoans known for
their sartorial dignity found them
selves of divided mind yesterday.
For example, Austin H. Niblack,
whose wedding to Miss Helen Cudahy
was one of the more notable recent
society events, said:
1T all depends on where you're 60
ing and what you're going to do, but
surely one would need ten suits of

Parent Teachers Association, of
Lancaster. Mrs. Derby tells of her
discovery as follows:
"While performing work, a pris-

touch liquor again, whereupon l told
him this pledge was easier to
keep within prison walls than out

could get all the liquor he could pay
for. In response to my request, he
brought me two one-pint bottles of
whisky and a large box of NOR

Kenty, as he had remarked to me
previously that only proof counted.
He received me with indignation,

OK AND MULE PULL
WELL I'M HARNESS

| Shreveport, La, Feb. 1ti.-Jim Cole
man, a negro. living near Flournoy,
La, figured that it would be a whole
lot easier to persuade an OK to wear
harness that it would be to accustom
| a mule to yoke and so when one of
Coleman's two mules died recently
he made the best of his circumstances
and diligently trained a young steer
to wear bride and bit and team with
the remaining mule alongside a wag-
on tongue.
Coleman drove his odd-appearing
team into Shreveport Wednesday with
load of wood and the curiosity by
scores gathered around the wagon to
hear the negro boast of his achieve
ment. Detective Sullivan, who saw
Coleman and his team on the out
skirts of the city, asked the darkey
what prompted him to hitch mule
and a steer to wagon.
Use jes' gettin' by, boss" he an
swered, Use jes gettin' by
Coleman shook the reins and glanc-
ed down the road
Hands up, Brady" he yelled at
the OK. The animal lurched against
the harness and walked serenely down
the road with the mule in step at his
side.
