Late picnics are better than late
watermelons, though we are fond of
both.
Some of the farmers in this sec
tion haven't picked out bale Of cot
ton yet, owing to the fact that it just
hasn't opened, while others are about
done gathering their cotton crops.
Pea crops are very sorry through
this section, owing to the fact that
many were gathered green.
Our new school house at White
Oak is dandy and our school will
start Monday, October %. But there
is one thing that we need badly that
we haven't got and that is good roads

RALLIED AN ARMY CORPS

When the broke out Colonel Petain was put in command of a brigade in the first army corps, though kept rank of colonel That brigade distinguished itself during the long retreat from Char leroi to the Marne by the savage ferocy with which repeatedly turned and beat back the enemy.
 Just before the battle of Marne he promoted general of division and sent to rally the rem nants of the third corps, badly disorganiZed during the by General Saurets inefficient handling He met the third corps the Marne took charge at once and sitting his horse beside the bridge pistol in hand, made every march calmly past him and look up at him as the embodiment of authority.
 These the words with which he was cited in the army order of September 21, 19l4
 "Petain. general commanding the sixth division infantry has by his example his tenacity his calm under fire, his incessant foresight, his continual n- tervention at the right moment obtained from his division during fourteen days of consecutive fighting a magnificent effort, resisting repeated attacks night day and the fourteenth day in spite of his losses repelng a final very violent attack.

The Show and the Newsnaper

A curious controversy has come to end in New York. The New York Times criticised severely certain plays given by the shuberts Thereupon the Shuberts refused to admit their theaters dramatic critic of the Times The publishers sued the Shuberts and after winning in the lower courts were told by the higher that they had remedy. There the matter stood. week ago the Shuberts voluntarily came critic could his theatrical and criticisms
 The Shuberts cannot be blind to the value of advertising The New York Times is one of the great newspapers of the country For time there suggestion of advertising the daily discussion of the right wrong of the Shuberts attitude That however died out after awhile and there has been practically nothing in the Times about the Shuberts for long time Some wiser than the Shuberts said to political reporters Praise me if you can; damn if you must but for heavens sake don't let me alone"
 This seems to be the opinion that the Shuberts have been late in arriving An adverse theatrical criticism does not ruin a good play it awakens dis cusson among theater- goers to whether the play going to The Times been gaining steadily throughout the amusing controversy which was only episode to the paper however serious it may have been to the Shuberts. Now the critic can free his mind More people will read about the Shuberts than before. The wonder is that intelligent men as the theater managers should have been long in reach ing a common sense conclusion

LOSES HOME, SUES
 FOR HER ENROLMENT
Rosa Bates, Housekeeper, Claims TiI!- man Ozas Promised Her Home
 and Mrs. Ozias Changed Plan

Rosa Bates, housekeeper for Tillman OZias for fourteen years, wants $1260 with interest for her services to him in that capacity during the years 1902 1903 in Florida. She figures her ser vice at the rate of one dollar a day
 Mrs. Bates took the witness stand in Judge Lyman's court yesterday and after overcoming her timidity in the unnatural surroundings, told the court her relations with OZias. She said she had been informally adopted by Ozias, who had asked her whether she wanted wages or home for the rest of her life. She replied "A home is what a woman needs,' but when she was put out of the home she said she felt her wages were due Her own marriage in 1905 had not interrupted the home in fact she said Mir. OZias stated he would , be glad to have son and Mir Bates l had been connected with MT Ozias and they had all lived together
 Then Mr OZias had married. The wife came home.
 What occurred after sine came?' asked Judge Doan of his witness. "Oh. everythinc," she answered.
 Until the coming of Mrs. Ozias sine had been treated kindly. An appeal tc MT. Ozias for further kindness pro- vokeG the response that his wife was mistress. She left the home when she Was ill, when she had to be helped or 4the cer by the e ndlctor and a gronr of high school girls She no longeI had the home so she sought the alter native-wages.
 Joseph F, Morrison for the defens, asked the witness if she had signeC
 receipt which cancelled Mr. Ozias indebtedness to her.
 , She admitted that she had after bor rowing Judge Deans spectacles an, then asked if she might explain I I did not have my glasses with m
 and when ] asked what 1 was signin : l was told, Sign it, it will secure yo | rest fer your life
