Tuesday pleaded guilty to burglary

refused to state whether the burglary
was committed during the day or
right, which was necessary for the

the degree. The case was according

Rl0LE TRIO AT HIGH
SCHOOL SATURDAY NIGHT

The Oriole Trio of the Lyceum
Course will give an entertainment at
the high school auditorium Saturday
evening, December 16. This company
comes well recommended, as the fol-
lowing clipping from an Absarokee,
Montana, exchange will testify:
The second number of the Lyceum
Course, the Orioles, has come and
gone. The entertainment was so sur
prisingly good, so far ahead of the
usual numbers of the kind, that it is
hard to tell how refreshing, how en-
joyable and how inspiring this trio of
young ladies with their varied talents
proved to be.
OF course, each one of the three
had her partisans in the audience
Some preferred the sweet songs of
the vocalist, some admired most the
birdlike notes of the whistler, and
many decided that the reader was the
best But the fact remains, which
ever they chose, they picked a win
ner.
1t is hard to imagine how any three
people could be expected to give a
more satisfying entertainment to a
mixed audience. The promoters of
the Lyceum Course are handing them
selves bouquets for securing so popu-
lar a number. and well they may. The
remainder of the numbers will have
to go some to keep up the pace set
by the Orioles.

every boy and girl should have.
Three clubs have been organized
in Winnemucca. and the boys and
girls seem to be very much interest
ed. Every club member will be given
the opportunity to do something. The
girls club in home economics is
starting their work now under the
leadership of four teachers. Special
attention is given to the members of
the Animal Husbandry club by offer
ing a series of illustrated talks on
livestock. In the early spring vari-
Gus demonstrations of interest will
be given to the members of the Gar
dening club. In the fall there will
be a general roundup" of all the
clubs and events of special interest
held AS the work is competitive all
the way through, prizes will be given
to all winners in the clubs.

BUSINESS STATEMENT.

Due to the increased cost of paper and all other supplies
that are a part and parcel of the printing trade, a great many
weekly newspapers have, besides raising their advertising
rates, increased their subscription price to $3.50 per year;
while the daily papers have cut off all exchanges, correspond
ents and other free papers besides raising their advertising
rates.
There is every probability that there will be a still further
advance and it is the universal opinion of the leading authori-1
ties that there will not be a decrease, at least in the cost Of
white newspaper.
To meet the raise in price we have decided to give our
subscribers until January l, 1917, in which to pay up their back
subscriptions and to pay at least one year in advance. In other
words. on and after January l, 1917, all subscribers who are
not paid in advance will be taken from our subscription list.
We hope we will not lose a single subscriber by this move,
at least we believe the number will be small, for we believe you
can appreciate the fact that the only possible way to run a
newspaper on a business basis is for every subscriber to nav his
subscription n advance. You would not think of asking the
Memphis Commercial Appeal, the New Orleans Times-Picay-
une, or any other paper run on a business basis, to send YOU
their paper ION credit would you? The fact of the business
is, we intend by sheer merit to gain more subscribers than we
lose.
We will not guarantee that the subscription price of The
Sentinel will not be raised after January l, 1917, for at that
time circumstances may force us to raise our subscription price,
but we will guarantee to send you The Sentinel for as many
years a 5 you pay in advance. We believe that sooner or later
we will be forced to raise our subscription price. but in the
meantime and until January l, 1917, the above will be in full
force and effect. THE GRENADA SENTINEL,
By Elicit LAWRENCE,
Business Manager.

MERCHANTS AND FARMERS F%oRTIFYlNc.

The merchants and farmers, at least a very large number
OF them, in the territory adjacent to Memphis had a three days
convention there this week, going over conditions and trying
to fortify for the future. Some very able, practical and timely
discussions have been had. 1t may appear to the onlooker that
there is much spurious talk at such gatherings, and there is, yet
if we eliminate the spurious in all things there will be very little
often times left by which we can locate the real, the substantial
Most things come by growth, by evolution, so to speak, and it
takes a comparison of ideas, the rubbing of brain against brain
in order that the true spark may be made. Undoubtedly good
will come of the meeting and Memphis is to be commended for
inaugurating it. 1t would be an extraordinary circumstance if
some new ideas were not gotten there and carried back to the
various communities represented. From almost time immemor-|
ial, important movements have had their inspiration in convoca-
tons called because of unusual embarrassments or circum-
stances that confronted the people. With the price of every
thing going up, up, up, and the work of the boil weevil at our
doors, a situation confronts the cotton belt that it never had to
face before and nobody except one fitted for the bug house or
a padded cell would argue that we can do as we have been do,
ing about farming and spending money and not be in the hands
of the bankrupt court.
