Newspaper Invaluable To A Community.

Anory Times Press.
There are differences of opinion as
to the mission of newspaper but the
late Prof. A. H. Elicit of Blue Noun
tain gave the best definition of a
real newspaper when he said 1t was a
publication that was ears, eyes, and
nose for the public. There is nothing
equal 10 publicity as an agent in
keeping public affairs clean and heal
thy; and the newspaper is the only
real 10th century means of turning
the blessed sunlight of publicity on
the doings OF men in official positions.
There is nothing that a man does in
an official capacity but should be
given the most searching publicity,
and the habit of looking for Interior
motives in newspaper publicity is
coming to be very popular fault in
officials from the highest to the
lowest.

EDITORIAL

If the Herald by any mishap were
to go dead, and we want to say
right here that it hash t any such IN
teutions by long SHOT, that some of
the very people who give us the
least encouragement and support
would go harping round the town
exclaiming I'VE must have a news
paper, the town can't get along
without one" and such like utteran-
ses. Then if some newspaper man
were too be shallow-headed enough
to be misled (there are not many of
them that would be so took in) by
such chanting, he would likely find
out to his sorrow later on that its
not every one that saith NEWS
PAPER" that's willing to shell out
the coin and help make its living a
possibility.

Some park seats scattered round
over the courtyard under the shade
of those majestic oaks would add
materially to the comfort of the
court-comers and Leakesville trading
folks as well as to the popularity of
the supervisors that thoughtfully
and CONSIDERABLY provided them and
who knows but what they have some
thing like that in mind now that the
court house has been or is being en-
larged to adequate capacity. Any
way one supervisor said in the edi-
tors hearing that he favored put
ting up fence round the square
that was really fence aud a credit
TO the county and the town and put
ting down concrete walks to and
from the gate entrances. We are
living In a progressive age and it
need not be thought that Greene
county on account of her long time
ISOLATION proposes to stay behind
the procession for she is waking up
along many lines and showing that
spirit of the times has pervaded her.

The disturbment which the euro
pean war has wrought to CONNER
cial conditions the world over has
probably worked good to this section
and Greene county in particular as it
has afforded US chance to so, ter
catch up in going through the pro-
cess of REIMBURSEMENT which has been
our portion since the September
storm of 1906 hurried out the timber
and farming has had to be turned to.
Changing the industry almost in to-
to OF section is a serious matter
and one that requires time and much
economy to bring round. With the
A q M road connecting up in few
DAYS to the coast surely our county
can come once more Into it's own as
that will open up the markets of the
country to US with two or three
main lines accessible to ship over
and for passenger traffic to journey
in and out of our bounds. Let us
hope we are entering on to better
day in real truth and work to that
end.

Just as the railroads have begun to
make money. after several hard years,
they are threatened with a great
strike Four national railroad unions
threaten to tie up every steam road
in the country. The number of en-
ployees involved may total 100000.
They seem to have it in their power
to stop all freight and passenger traf-
nc on 25O,60O miles Of track
We have never had a strike of such
scope and magnitude. It would par
aIyze all American industry and com
merce and stop our export trade. A
nation of 100.000.000 people would
stand still, while its biggest industry
fought out question of wages and
hours. A deadlock would be incon-
ceivably estructive.--Bangor (Me)

Laws OF Past Inadequate for Present.
Farm & Ranch, Dallas Texas.

Farm & Ranch, Dallas Texas.
Our government is far more COM
plex and comprehensive than it was
when first established. Our popula
ton has increased enormously; great
organizations have been made in bus
mess, great wealth has been accumu-
lated and industrial conditions have
undergone radical changes. 1t
would be foolish to leave laws as
they were before this growth. AS
soon as economic. social and moral
conditions require new laws or a
change of old laws we should not
hesitate to enact them.
The reactionaries and the old-time
party men need have no fears for
progressive citizenship. The intelli-
gent people of to-day know what
they want and what they need.
They need no guardians among the
bosses. Those who live after us
can take care of themselves. Let us
have what society needs and what
honest, self-sustainlng business re-
quires for present development.

the type of humanity unappreciatiye
Of newspaper, and we are alludlng
how to this to show that we have
been aware of ii all along and that
we pursue that even tenor of our
way undisturbed by the croaklng of
such chaps. A newspaper has got to

but 4 it fail to go forth and then
they see it and pretend a better ap-

and human nature, but thank God

All State Property Should Be Insured.

Mize Record.
Many legislators have said that at
the next session of the Legislature
they will make efforts to have the
law making body provide for the car
rying of fire and tornado insurance
on all property of the state. They
estimate that the sum that will have
to be spent by the state in repairs to
property damaged during the cv-
clone last week would pay the pre-
MUM on policies for all state institu-
tions for several years. The state
carries no insurance of any kind on
any of its properties

Bay Springs News.

According to a News item from
Slldell, La. in the New Orleans Daily
States, T. j. Hand, who is a whole
sale liquor dealer, will retire from
the liquor business next month.
This action is taken on account of
the heavy decrease IN the shipment
of liquors into Mississippi. This
article also states that since our
uew law has gone into effect several
shipments have been confiscated.
We are not usually glad to hear OF a
man going out of business, but all
ways rejoice when man or firm en-
gagged in such adamnlng business is
forced to quit.

Some promoter sends us a prospec-
tus OF scheme to finance canning
factory for Mobile. The Herald fa-
vors the establishment of canning
factories all over this section but at
Leakesville in particular, SO we can I
see our way clear to help that fellow
out boosting game that would
draw money from out OF our county
for an enterprise to be located else
where that should be situated within
its boundaries. Let Mobile have a
canning factory, yea its to her re-
proach that she already has not sew
eral, but let Mobile capital build
them. Leakesville needs all she can
muster to get such an institution
established here, aud we have been
boosting to that end and will contin-
ne till we see some tangible results.
We have heard some favorable re-
marks along that line but so far they
have all come from people who are
like ourselves only able to be well
wishers. Its the capitalists and the
skilled canning factory people we
need to hear from.

ANCIENT AND MODERN ATHLETICS.

BY A. w. Milden. Professor OF Greek.
Games played large part in the
life OF the ancient Greeks. We see it
in the worldwide celebrity of the
olympic festival, which attracted
worshippers and participants from
every part of Hellenic world, and
helped to keep alive national unity
which was ever in danger of being
lost through their passionate attach
ment TO local freedom and indepen-
dence, the strength and at the same
time the weakness of the Greek
character. The competitions were
musical and literary as we'll as ath-
letic. This very training of body
and mind did not stop even in mid
die life and was one of the character
istics that distinguished the Greek
and tostered in him contempt for
the barbarism. The masterpieces of
Greek sculpture owe their inspira-
ton to Greek athletics.
While the history of the Olympic
games continues unbroken for a
period of twelve hundred years. and
has recently been revived. it is only
fair to say that the competitions
were not always conducted on the
highest plane, for in the course of
time specialization entered with the
object of winning as many prizes as
possible, and likewise the element of
professionalism, In which victory
was bought and sold. But in the
best days they played the game"
for the honor of the Olympic crown
of Wild olive, and it was open to the
poorest citizen of Greek birth and
eagerly coveted by the wealthiest.
The modern evil of betting had no
part in the ancient competitions.
The spirit of America is akin to
the democratic spirit of Greece.
Those in charge of the training Of
the youth of tie State can do much,
If they will, to emphasize true
craftsmanship, as it existed in the
best days of the past, and the love of
honor for honor's sake.
