The Progressive Mississippian,
Of the 7th inst, under the cap
tion Of Passed by the National
Board Of Censors, goes after
the Board without gloves. IL
says:
Eve don't know who the Nat
ionai Board Of Censors 10 or
whether there really exists such
q body except ss a writing on the
moving picture screen. But ss-
suming that there Is . board 10
set It's stamp Of approval. or dis
approval on moving pic ture plays
we are minded to hsrshly erii-
else both their moral and aesthe-
tic taste when they passed the
play, The Primrose PATH"
shown this week at q local play
house. The story CT the play Is
without mOrsl-vspid and inAne.
While psndering to the ultra
modern desire for insipid nasti-
ness, and presenting its lewd
scenes with q vividness rarely
Witnessed, it not only lacks the
moral lesson usually poked At
you through the yellowest OF
screaming meiodrama, but actu-
ally mAgnifes, as 3 sacrifice Of
conjugal love the basest sin given
to woman to commit the selling
Of her virtue for money
I'VE are not Delivers in q null
itute Of prohibitive Laws, and
you viii not often hear The Mis-
sissippian exclAiming. There
ought TO be q law against this and
against that" But acknovledg-
ing. a. We do, the tremendous
influence, for good or evil, OF
the modern development of NOV
ing pictures; realizing that this
form of amusement has supplant-
Cd the threatre for grown ups
and become an almost daily am
usement for the children; and
seeing clearly the educational
value possible, tor young and old
through this medium; we pro-
pose, as q moral right Of the CON-
munity to protect itself from
contamination, that II the socall-
ed national board Il to exercise
no better censorship than it has
done in the instance quoted. We
should have . local board OF CEN
sors, either legalized or under
the auspices Of a civic league,
enforcing its censorship by the

SIIu Legislation

Mississippi, while a great state,
has suffered to a great extent
from silly legislation for the past
several years. We did hope that
this Legislature would be an ex-
cepnon to the rule, and would
enact laws that would better con-
ditions generally, rather than a
few Office holders But, alas, il
seems that it is following in the
same old rut.
Here Is a sample Of the intel
hgence that is 70 be spread on
the statute books Of our great
State, quoted from a dispatch
from Jackson. dated 18th inst:
cat its afternoon session the
senate passed bill introduced
by Mr.. Boddie, providing for a
fee Of Is cents to each circuit
clerk in the county for recording
certificates Of carriers upon de-
liveries Of intcxicsnts. The fee
is TO be paid by the consignee Of
such goods, and for every ship
ment entered the clerk i 70 re-
ceive Is cents" ."
Now gentlemen. il this is q
sample Of what the dear people
are 10 receive At your hands, the
best thing to do would be to ad-
journ the Legislature at once, go
home, harness up old Pete and go
to ploughing.

To make money is compare
lively easy. To save it is more
difficult. To make it grow is a
problem.
And not all Of US are sole to
solve the problem.
But if ever there was a time
when we faced the opportunities
for making money grow, that
time is now.
Everybody knows that the
prosperity Of the nation depends
primarily upon the farmer and
his crops. II he plants in large
screages, and nature Is good to
him, his yield Is bountiful and be
becomes the harbinger of an era
Of prosperity.
When the farmer Is plentfully
supplied with funds he wants
new machinery and more mach
inery, and the making Of these
gives employment to millions of
people.
These people in turn have
money to spend and the merch-
ant begins TO increase the volume
of his business and gather in
greater profits.
And a. it il with these, so it Is
all down the line and extending
into every industry and every
home.
This year the farmers of this
country marketed the greatest
crop in history, the total value of
the lesdIng crops reaching the
astounding figure Of over s., $50,
100000. This exceeds last years
yield by over s415, 900, 900.
The making of money by the
people of this community the
coming year will depend greatly
upon the farmers Of our COM
munity. If they increase their
acreage the wealth of the CON-
munity will be enchanaed in pro-
portion, and through the logical
routine of barter and trade it
finds It's way into every artery of
town, farm and countryside.
The year to come will witness
tremendous demand for farm
products. This demand will
come from every section of the
globe and the buyer pays in
gold.
For this reason we urge upon
every farmer the advisability.
even the vital Importance, of
culdvaing every possible foot
of ground. even to the doubling
of your acreage If such a thing
be within the bounds of pos. j.
bility.
The opportunity for making
money Is before you-the great
estyou have ever seen, possibly
greater than you will ever see
again.
You are our mainstay, our
backbone. the one man upon
whom We all depend, to whom
We all turn as the child turns u
its mother.
Your success viii be our sue
cess, your prosperity our pros
perity, your advancement on,
advancement.
You are the man Of the hour
and the opportunity is before
you.

PARIS, Aug. 20.-The British Of
ficers' "swagger stick is seen again
In the delicate jewelled hands Of
French society women In tho Bois de
Boulosne. 1t is the third time in re-
cent years that the fashion of "canes
for women" has been tried. They ap-
pearcd at Trouville In 1898 In the
hands Of a well-known Partisan au-
thoress. A spesmodic attempt to in
troduce IL was made soon after the
British troops began disembarking in
French ports, but 1t got no farther
than the boulevards. The boulevards
finally tired Of It, then the fashion
able "faubourgs" took II up.
1t is carried only in the Bois de
Boulogne and IL goes with the in
evitable short skirt, with CATERS pref
erably to high boots. and with
Jacket having four pockets and re-
sembling. even TO the brass buttons,
the regulation khaki vareuse of the
British officer. A -1aunty velvet
toque resembling tho army fatigue
cap completes the martial air of the
costume. The fashion has not been

the same time that London tried
"muffs for men" and while Vienna
