A Storm Out of Season

This section was visited the
soast week by a tropical storm
which did great damage to all
crops. A steady wind blew from
the southeast for more than 48
hours and the rainfall during
tnat period amounted to more
than eight inches.
A storm of this character at
this season of the year cannot be
recalled by the oldest inhab-
itants. The damage cannot now
be estimated. The surrounding
streams were higher than ever
known before and all lowlands
were submerged. The water in
Town Creek was highest ever
known. The new fill which had
been completed on east end OF the
levee was carried away by the
weight of the water that broke
through in swift current. Many
fields of oats were entirely de-
stroyed. Alfalfa fields that had
been cut were ruined, while corn
was badly damaged in all the
bottoms. Just how much the
cotton crop has been damaged
cannot be told, but as cotton has
a wonderful recuperative power
the damage can be repaired by
favorable seasons.
Notwithstanding the disastrous
weather. our people are hopeful
that>a fair crop may yet be made
and the bright side will soon be
turned toward US.

"Pollyanna"

The Baptist ladies are reputed
for offering to Tupelo the very
best of entertainment and their
reputation was not injured by
their last offering of ''Pollyanna"
at the Baptist church Tuesday
evening.
Miss Jennie Newsom, the read
er. of Louisville. Miss, is a slip
of a girl herself and fit into the
glad story like a sunbeam in a
bed of daffodils or a smile on the
lips of childhood. The little
glad girl" which is the favorite
story of so many. walked out
from the leaves of the book, as
it were, and literally told her
own story, introducing her
friends. Aunt Polly, Nancy, y
Uncle Tom, y Mr.. Pendleton'
and, of course. Jimmie Bean, =
all of whom, in turn, lived and
talked through the speaker.
Miss Newsom's style is SO
simple, so unaffected as to dis
tinguisb her as an artist, and
"Pollyanna" will ever be asso-
ciated in the minds of Tupelc
book lovers with this charming
young artist who PLAYED the
glad game" Tuesday evening.

pelo was delighted Wednesday
evening when Miss Virginia

in program that delighted all.
Miss Mitchell's numbers in
cluded both the classical songs
and several old songs that are
loved wherever music is known.
The friends of MISS Mitchell
who had never heard her sing
were astonished at the remarka-
bic range of voice she displayed.
Although really a mezzo-soprano,
she did not hesitate to essay
other parts. invariably acquitting
herself with distinction.
On the program were two
songs, "The Last Rose Of Sum.
mer" and Annie Laurie" prime
ia tes with every audience,
which were sung exquisitely with
great tenderness of expression
of expression and perfect enun-,
citation.

in favorite operate selections
which charmed her audience.
She sang each number quite ef-
fectively, her fresh young voice
and diction appealing strongly to
her listeners.

charming in a number Of read
lngs which displayed the rare
qualities and intellectual attain
ments she possesses. Of petite.

Fisher Immediately captivatedI
the large crowd with her first
selection. From grave to gay
she carried her audience with

while the representations and
character sketches displayed the
wide range of her talents.

Mrs. Alice DeCell Anderson, is.
one of Tupelo's most accomplish
ed pianists, and rendered each
selection faultlessly.
Prof. M. H. Vickers, the vio-
Iinist, furnished admirable sup

ground was banked with natural
flowers.

first, pale pink chiffon over
silk with trimmings Of real lace

WEAK KIDNEYS

Kidney Diseases Cause Many Aches
and Ills Of Darlington People

As one weak link weakens q
chain, so may weak kidneys weaken
the whole body and hasten the final
breaking-down.
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and
generally when. their activity is les
sened, the whole body suffers.
Aches and pains and languOr and
urinary ills frequently come, and
there is an ever increasing tendency
towards dropsv, gravel or fatal
Bright's disease. When the kid
neys fail there is no real help for
the sufferer except kidney help.

on the kidneys.
