EDITORIAL

The FAIR SEASON is at hand. OF
course the BIG events for this sec
ton are the great fairs at Meridian
and Mobile which partake of BIZ
state scope. And they are go ng 20
draw their usual if not larger
share OF attendance this season.
And rightly so. Properly conducted
fairs should prove progressive in
popularity and serve a great purpose
wisely directed in developing the
agricultural stock raising and in
dustrial conditions generally of the
section which they represent. Our
neighbor counties of Perry and
George are pulling off county fairs as
has been their won't for some two or
three years. Greene county has not
vet gotten up to that point but we
believe is progressing towards it as
there has been wonderful impetus
and awakening of interest along such
lines of development within her
bounds within the past few wears.

Importance OF Saving What's Raised.

Bay Springs News.
We as a class of farmers and cit,-
zens could not be considered waste.
full in living, yet many of us could be
more economical with the products
we raise. Our lands have generally
yielded well, but labor has been ex-
pensive. To save labor the manner
of harvesting and storing farm pro-
ducts has often been wasteful of fer
tility.
1t is true that labor, whether it be
the man gets own time or hired help,
must always be problem, The
margin of profit will always be con-
trolled very largely by the cost of
production, yet when the crops are
produced we owe it to ourselves and
those who live after US to save the
crops we have raised. 1t is far bet
ter to reduce the profits by diigent
work in harvesting and storing or
marketing than let the results of la
Dor go to waste.

The County Problem Of Making Ends
Meet.
Koscinsko Herald.

koscinsko Herald.
The year is just little better
than half gone and the cry comes
from all over the state that the coun-
ties have not the funds which to pay
current expenses. This condition
exists in Attaia County. The queS-
tion naturally arises, why is this IN
view of the high rate of taxation?
Our answer to this question is. the
demands OF the people for public i'm
provements; the low assessed value
of the property, loose business
Methods by the counties in some
instances, and we might go on spec
flying causes until we had written "a
column. People make demands on
the public treasury as If there was
noslimlt to the supply of funds, and
when tax paying time come howl
because taxes are SO high. Taxes
cannot be reduced unless the dem
ands are reduced. We cannot enjoy
the Injuries of good roads, good
bridges, good schools, etc., the re-
suits of progress and civilization
without paying for them. The
faster we advance the more money we
haye to have, and how to raise that
money is a problem the Boards OF
supervisors will have to solve, and
the only revenue getter they have is
the tax levy.

Advocates Keeping Up Family Re-
unions.

YaZOo Sentinel.
To SOME people ties of alnship
means little. Ihev see no reason
why second cousins should be any
thing to each other. A reunion of
such distant relatives would seem 10
them as illogical as for all the pee
pie whose names begin with the same
letter to form an association.
Yet there are still a great mar v
people who do feel the strength Ct
these ties of clanshlp. Not as mary
as formerly. as families are scattered
nowadays all over the country.
Still one sees in the newspapers
constant reports of family gather
ings. large and small. People trav-
ell many miles to attend them.
The phrase that Blood is thicker
than water" is not wholly meaning
less. The fact that families have a
common ancestor ought to mean
some community of feeling and con-
geniality of sentiment. The family
reunions are at least apt to gather
together both rich and poor. the
prominent and the obscure. People
seem at these occasions to forget the
artificial lines created by money and
society. and to meet on the basis OF a
more natural and friendly senti-
ment.

UNIVERSITY LETTER.
The Importance Of Co. Operating With
The Sanitary Officers.

BY Christopher Longest. Asst Prof OF Latin.
Oxford, MISS. Sept. 80, 1916. -
One has but to turn the public
prints to observe, so far as publ
cations go, the important place as
sumed by sanitation. But on the
9th er hand. the prohibitory notices
set prominently before our eyes in
post offices, street cars and other
public places, bear silent testimony
to the fact that we, the lavmen, are
habitually doing things in violation
of what sanitary officers regard as
precautions of prime Importance
Though we may be aware that there
are styles, even in the practice of
medicine, and that certain meth,ds
OF the treatment of disease are dis
carded as styles in ladies dresses
and others adopted in their places
which seen, to arise from an oppo-
sing view of medical science; still we
continue to send for the physician
in times of sickness, ard thus bear
testimony TO his superior knowledge.
AS to the demands made by santa
tion officers. moment IN reflection
will show that, in the main. they
are based upon reasonable principles
To illustrate: there are reasons
enough based upon common decency,
to cause people TO refrain from spit
ting on the floor of bindings, and OF
common carriers, such as raj way
trains and the restriction us TO spit
ting is emphasized by demands for
cleanliness. There are reasons e.
noneh based ON desire tor physical
comfort TO cause us to fall in with
the sanitation officials in the fight
against our very common enemy, the
house fly. The same NAV be said
and with emphasis, of the mosquito
Ii we grant the extreme contention
of thos who claim that yellow fever
be transmitted by other means than
the mosquito, there still remains rea-
sons enough why we should with en-
husiasm join in the campaign against
this enemy of sleep, if not of health.
1t is true that sanitation officers of
the state and federal governments of
have some difficulty in enlisting the
support of the public. To vew of the
fact that these servants of the state
are amongst the foremost in working
for the common good, we should en-
deavor to give them encouragement,
at least that of co operation.

DUELS BECOME INFREQUENT IN
 FRENCH CITIES
War May End Gallic Custon of Seeking Redress on
 "Field of Honor"

Paris, July 1.-The duel is one of the ancient institutions of France that
 has fallen into neglect during the war
 The last sensational encounter on the
 field of honor"-a bloodless one
 took place after the election of the
 Chamber of Deputies in 1914, not long
 before hostilities broke out. It was between Joseph Caillaux, former min
 ister of finance and his unsuccessful opponent Louis d'Aillieres. Caillaux fired into the air and d'Aillieres fired
 into the ground.
 Since that meeting M. d'Aillieres has
 been grievously wounded on another field of honor.'' Acting as inter-
 mediary officer between the firing line and the command in the rear, he was
 hit by a fragment of shell that
 claimed him, probably for life. It is attributed to the fact that so many Frenchmen, like M. d'Aillieres
 have shed their blood on the battle field that the duel has been abandon
 ed and there is well-defined senti- ment that it has come to an end for | good and all.
 Some credit the sacred union" of parties and classes with this reform
 while there are certain proofs that it is due to popular deprecation of per-
 sonal conflicts between Frenchmen while "the Germans are still at Noy-
 on." The "sacred union" has not pre-
 vented disputes and provocations.
 Two men contesting for a favorable
 place from which to witness a review
 of troops on the Esplanade des In-
 valiGes came to blows and one of them
 tossed his card to the other.
 "If you are so eager to fight" cried a bystander, "why don't you do as
 those boys did" pointing to some arm
 less and legless soldiers lined up be- fore the troops to be decorated. Two young men in a popular cafe exchanged sarcasms, followed by in- suits, blows and an exchange of cards. "To Verdun with them!" cried the spectators. "Put them out!"
 The manager threw both of them into the street where the idlers jeered them until in common defense they | made up their quarrel and walked
 off together.
 There are two hypothese regar ding | the 6uel after the war. In sons cases the Cisputants have both been con- batants in the great war and will find l it ridiculous to make a show of collr- age against each. other after having
 already shown it together many times against common enemy.
 If they are not both combatants, | they will, one or both of them have
 been heroes of the "rear'' to whom
 Iubl:c opinion will say No! No fight
 ing" If you were so thirsty for blood | and so particular about honor. you
 would have gotten your satisfaction
 out of the Germans"
