visited. The new clubs are, the Tie
Plant Club, the OXberry Club. and the
GAINESVILLE Home Demonstration Club.
At the fie Plant four members were
enrolled. Miss Wilma Campbell was
elected president. Two of the promi-
nent business men of Tie Plant are in
terested in the work and the girls are
indeed fortunate in having such friends.
AT OXberiy there was a girls can
ming club of six members organized.
The people of the community will meet
with the girls mex time.
The Elliott Canning Club was visited.
Here a scoring demonstration was giv-
en-. In this demonstration the girls
learned exactly what is expected of a
can of tomatoes bearing a -Four H.
Brand label. A commercial can was
opened and graded, using as a score
the following points: Appearance, tex
ture, flavor, uniformity, pack and con-
tainer. The girls learned the stand
ards for good canned products and will
bring their products up to requirements
before any cans are placed on the mar
ket. After this and other business was
dtttllNtO W SOtue new games anu CluD
songs were learned.
On Thursday the work went to Clarks-
vile, out on the Misterton road. Here
the canning club of the community held
its second meeting. The scoring dem
onstration was also given here as well
as instructions for keeping the Record

came together for the purpose of or
ganizing a club for the study of Home

bers of this club. Their first work will
be on the Home Garden, preparatory
to their canning work. The ladies
will make the soup mixture, Dixie
Relish, etc, besides the canning OF
fruit, beans and other vegetables. They
will begin working next time on a very
inexpensive homemade ~fireless cooker.
This is a broad field and there are SC
many problems to be solved, that ear.
nest and consecutive work should be OF
benefit to the home maker.
The recipes for Dixie Relish made a,

Clifton a Candidate
For a Florida Office.

The Sentinel is in possession of infor-
nation which it cannot question that
Prof. W. l.. Clifton, formerly at the
head of Grenada College, is a candidate
Tor the office of county superintendent
OF public education in Polk county,
Florida, and is persuaded that only a
keen sense of public duty could have
induced this good nan to enter a politi-
cal contest. Certainly he believed that
there was a needed work that he was
peculiarly fitted for to perform, other
wise The Sentinel feels sure that the
sirens song of official honors could not
have lured him into the turbulent sea
OF politics, that is if political campaigns
in Florida are even fifth cousins to
those in Mississippi. Clifton is a man
who goes where duty calls. He has
the mind of a statesman and a pb;loso-
pher, he has the precision and self
3orgetfulness of a patriot and the devo-
Bon to duty of a soldier. He is a very
.locholarly man yet an exceedingly prac-
stical one; he knows the why's and the
wherefores of life and has the happy
faculty Of utilizing forces and oppor-
tunities
Prof. Clifton has had many flattering
offers to return to Mississippi but he
has become SO enamOred with Florida
and the citizenship of that state that
he has decided to make that his per-
manent home. H. is a most valuable
asset to any state and if the good peo-
pie of Polk county know MIN as we'll as
he is known in Grenada county and in
North Mississippi, they will not hest
tate about making him the head OF
their county schools. Polk county hat
a rare opportunity presented to it.

That even the ice man is not the cool
est person in town these hot days was
plainly shown Wednesday morning on
Water street when the ice cart which
was under the skillful management Of
the owner himself came to grief by
parting in the middle. The kingpin or
bolt which holds the body of the cart
onto the front axle. broke just as the
cart was crossing the car track, the
horses and front wheels still continu-
ing to pursue their way. but not so with
the rest Of the cart, which came to such
an abrupt and unceremonious stop that
the driver had hard work to keep his
spinal column from shooting up through
hit hat The cart was we'll loaded with
ice and made a loud bang when it struck
the hard road, also holding up the
freight car and passenger car which
were coming along at this time. 1t Is
rumored that Two excellent pictures Of
the catastrophe were secured by John
n.y. on the spot. who had his camera In
the store nearby and produced it much
to the discomfort Of the driver of the leo
cart. A new bolt was then put into
place and the cart once moro resumed
it's journey up the street none the worse
for it's undignifed breakdown.

release featuring Douglas Fairbanks as
an eccentric outlaw who calls himself
"Passin' Thru" Believing himself to
be of illegitimate parentage. he devotes
his life to helping other children who
have been born that way.
For instance, he holds up the grocer
in his store and robs him of enough
foodstuffs to supply a little lad of that
kind who lives alone on the outskirts of
town. Again, he shoots up saloon to
get the contents of the till for an out
cast girl. Beyond that his depredations
take queer form. He has lately held
up the Pacific Express on its way
across the desert for the sole purpose
of robbing the conductor of his ticket
punch. And with this punch he moves
through the thrilling story, punching
the scarfs or coat-tails of all the bad
men he meets.

she died when he was very young.
leaving him some cryptic letters and
miniature of herself as a girl just bud

from Auburn Wednesday afternoon on
the 2.30 train. Interment was in the

of the relatives of the deceased. Tho
following sad account Of the young

Frank Campbell, 25, of South street,
Auburn, died at the c. NJ. G. hospital
yesterday afternoon from injuries he
received earlier in the day while work.
ing in a ditch which was being built
factory in Auburn
A crew Of men were digging a sewer,
preparatory to the construction Of a
new plant for the Cushman-Hollis Co.,
and had penetrated the earth for a
depth Of about 10 feet. Campbell was
one Of the men who was working in the
ditch when suddenly he spoke to
fellow workman. M. T. Harkins, and
when the latter turned around, he
could see nothing Of Campbell. who had
been buried by q cave-in. His fellow
workmen lost no time in starting the
rescue work and in a few minutes the
great mass Of dirt was removed.
AS soon as it was known that a man
had been buried by a cavern. the hunt
for a physician began and within a
few moments, DR.. Darrell was on the
Thn int toll
the hole and removed to the c. M. g.
hospital. 1t was thought that he would
live as he seemed to revive when TAX
en- from the hole. At the hospital his
condition was found to be serious and
although every effort was made to re-
vive the wounded man, he died about
1.30, not from wounds or broken bones
but by reason of the great pressure
brought to bear on the internal organs.
A large crowd gathered at the scene
of the accident and no one, not even
those who were in the vicinity when it
happened were able to tell just how the
fatality occurred. Mr. Harkins stated
that when he turned around he kicked
about a foot Of dirt away from where
the man was supposed to be and that
he saw Campbell. Some stated that he
was buried about eight feet deep but
the men working with him declared
that there was but little earth over
him.
The work Of rescue was carried on
by Michael Harkins. Glover Beale, Par
ker Hayes and Sam Probopid and the
way they dug the dirt away showed
that they were making their best at
tempt to free their fellow workman.
The length Of time which he was bur-
led is not definitely known. Each man
interviewed told a different story, rang
ing the time from 6s seconds to 20 min
utes.
Mr.. Campbell is survived by a ia
Their, E. F. Campbell Of Hallowell; a
mother, Mrs. M. A. Hyler Of Auburn: a
brother, Walter Campbell Of Virginia;
two sisters, Mrs Margie Clark and Mrs
Winnie Robinson Of South street, Au-
