PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS
RENDERED RECEPTION

At the instigation of the wives of
the members of the Board OF Trus-
tees of the Grenada Public School,
there was rendered to the teachers
of the public school and of the Gre
NADIA College a reception, to which
were invited all patrons and friends
of the two institutions. The prime
moveresses in the affair were Mes
DANES J. p. Broadstreet. R. W. Sharp,
J. \. Roane, J. S. King and o. F.
Lawrence. and they deserve the COM
~merdation and congratulations of all
ratrons of the school.
At the door the guests were met
by Dr.. and Mrs. Broadstreet, then
ushercd on to the punch bowl, about
which were clustered, like dew-drops
about the rose, Grenada's most re-
cent brides, Mesdames H. H. Heath,
|. o. Pearson, Jr., B. j. Anderson
and Fred Hurst. Then the guests
were conducted to the near end of
the receiving line, where they were
met by Mrs. Sharpe, and by her
introduced to the ladies and gentle
men in the receiving line. Repre-
senting the Grenada Public School
were Mr.. A. B. Campbell, Mr.. A. c..
Hargis, Misses Baker, Lee, Tucker,
Lawley. Moody, Thomas. Cook, Rob-
inson, McClesky, Horn and Broad
street. The contigent from the Gre
NADIA College were as follows: Mrs.
Countiss, Misses Stone, Duncan, Lam
ey, Cubbins, Jones, Boykin, Garden,
Tilett, Williams and Turner. The
glittering array of beauty which con-
stituted the receiving line was enough
to abash some of our timid bachelors.
Once engulfed in this delectable vor-
tex, however, the reluctance with
which he relinquished his place to
the crowding brother behind, was ap-
parent even to the casual observer.
At times. it seemed that the prerog-
atives of the traffic cop would have 70
be exercised to prevent a complete
tie-up of travel between the terminii
of the line. 1t is rumored that sew
eral of the more progressive broth
ers disguised themselves by changing
socks. and by this ruse passed along
the line several times.

An APPEAL FOR
CONFEDERATE VETERANS

To the Friends of the Confederate
Veterans:
There are now 225 inmates of the
Jefferson Davis Confederate Home
at Beauvoir, and there are about
seventy-five or a hundred needy Vet
cram and their wives on the waiting
lis. that ought to be enjoying the
privileges of this splendid Institu-
lion. but can cot be admitted because
every room is occupied.
Conditions in some sccticns OF u
tate, at the present, arc discour-
iging on accoun. of short crops and
'oll vcsTii. and these conditions will
maxi it much harder upon the needy
Confederate soldiers that should be
spending their last days in this beau
tiful and historic home by the sea.
l believe that there is enough pa
triotism and good will in the hearts
Of the more favored and fortunate
Mississippians to assist in any move
ment that will make it possible for
these dear old souls to have a home
at Beauvoir. Therefore. l am max
ing this appeal in the name Of the
lost cause" and in the name of HUI
manly, to the people of Mississippi
t. make small contributions for the
purpose of erecting two more addi-
tional dormitories at Beauvoir. l
want the women of each county in
Mississippi to contribute at least 325
from the county, to be used in the
construction and equipment of the
iolmitory for the widows of the Con-
iecercte Veterans. and 4 like sum of
80. o. more from the men of each
county, TO be used in erecting the
'o~nitory for the men at Beauvoir.
Ills .mall sun III $50 from each
county will give us four thousand
ard ftt% dollars, which is enough to
buiid the two dormitories and thus
make it possible TO send fifty or
scvelty-iive more of these old Vet
Grams and their wives to this home.
Tho Home will be in operation for
twenty or twenty-five years more,
and this additional space will make
il possible to take care of these un-
~forturates for this length of time.
Now, there are thousands in Mis-
sissippi who ought to welcome this
opportunity of doing this much good
Cor a cause that is sacred to every
Southern heart. These unfortunate
Veterans and their wives and wild
ows. ar best, have only a few years
70 live, and certainly the young men
and young of Mississippi, who
are blest with good health and
means, should readily respond to this
cause.
Send your contribution as soon as
you read this appeal so the Board of
Trustees can let the contract and
hive the buildings erected and ready
for occupancy before the wintry days
add TO the suffering and ant of these
unfortunate heroes. /
There are hundreds in every county
in the state. both men and women,
that could contribute from So to $25
each. Is your love for the cause
sufficient 10 make this small sacri-
fee that will mean so much in the
sum total for these helpless old Vet
Grams?
Send your contribution directly to |
me as President OF the Board of Dr. |
rcctors. and | will mail you a receipt
