OBITUARY

On Thursday April 9th. 1915
the death angel knocked at
tbedoor of Bro. Albert
Killen and called him
to his reward. He was born
July Goth, 1890 and professed
faith in Christ in 1907 and was
baptised into the fellowship of
Pine Grove church by Bro. Lee
Story where he remained until
death. Funeral services were
held in Pine Grove church, Rev.
G.. w. Breland conducti ng the
services. The deceased is sur
vived by two brothers, three sis
tiers preceding him to the grave
and his parents.
Albert in being taken from
his loved ones, the Creator is
only following out well mapped
ont plan of taking him home to
heaven where he will again be
united with those whom he
loved and left behind.

CURE YOUR MALARIA

Persons who carry malaria
germs in their blood from month
to month and from season to
season, in anyinstances, show
no symptoms of the disease.
However, their are those who
show evidence Of physical de-
pletion, while others are made
sick. The person who harbors
the malaria parasite in his blood
is termed a ''malaria carrier"
These individuals are potent fac
tors in the disease. 1t shows
plainly that the most important
thing in eradicating malaria
from a community, county, or
state is to cure all the people
who have the disease. 1t is fire.
+quently not the fault of the ply
sician that the person is not cured
On the contrary it is often the
case that when people are told
to take qainine certain length
of time they quit just as soon
as the chills and fever disappear
thinking they are we'll, although
it is found later that the disease
re-appears. There is no reason
why every person should not be
cured of malaria. Quinine is a
specific if taken in sufficient
quantities and for the right
length of time. 1t is usually
necessary to take it several weeks
before a cure is effected. Re-
member that in order to era IL
cate this disease, the people
should be cured, and you should
follow the direc tions of your
physician in order to protect
Yourself and your community.

SUCCESSFUL CREAMERIIsS
ON INCREASE IN MISSISSIPPI

Where the creameries and
dairymen of Mississippi made
one pound OF butter last year
they are now making two. Miss
issippi dairy leadership was we'll
illustrated in the recent butter
scoring competition at Birming
ham when this state exhibited
six of the samples Of butter
judged agaist an average of two
from ten other states. These
statements have been just given
out by L, A. Higgins, dairy ex.
tension worker of the Mississippi
A. & M. College. Eleven cream
cries are now in active operation
in the state according to Mr..
Higgins and two more will start
work within the next two weeks
while two years ago there we're
only two one at the A. & Nj.
College and the other at Brook
haven. Many of these started
with comparatively small out
puts and have more than doubled
their producing power in the
past year. This is true with the
creamery at Aberdeen which has
now monthly output of $4,000
to 10000 pounds of butter.

MR.HUGHES AND THE

"Whatever Mr.. Hughes may
say, whatever Mr.. Hughes may do
he is the German candidate for
President Of the United States.
he may not welcome this profess
sional German support but with.
out it he could not have been
nominated and without 1T he
cannot be elected. 1t may be
unfortunate for him that he
should be placed in snch a po-
sition but that is the fault OF
circumstances over which he
has no control If Mr.. Hughes
should be elected President his
success would inevitably be re-
garded throughout the world as
tremendous victory for Ger
many in the United States. Il
would be notice to all civil
zation that the German vote

! the German government, holds
the/balance of power in Ameri-
can politics it would proclaim to
the nations that no president Of
the United States could here
after hope for reelection unless
his foreign policy was satisfac
tory to Berlin and the Kaiser.
1t would make Potsdam
the political capital of the
United States and in its moral
effect upon Germany it would
be more potent TIL an a great vic
tory of the German armies in the
field. That is the situation that
the American people face.

windows are little difficult to get
at handy, and do not get washed as
often as those downstairs.

about putting on lighter garments.

the equal in writing ability and con-

the price. They do not have as much
gold or silver trimming, but other
wise fill the bill perfectly. Take a
