A CLOSELY euAgDED CLOCK.
Il 10 the Most Accurate Timekeeper
Man Has Devised.


Man Has Devised.
In the Case School OF Ap, He'd Science
In Cleveland there IS u clock that holds
the worlds record for accurate time
keeping over u period Of several
months II showed variation Of only
eight-thousandths Of second a day.
which In years time would be less
than three seconds.
Ship chronometers. which are the
most accurate time measuring instru-
ments in general use. cannot keep true
time within less than three to FIVE see
onds q month Marine observations
are absolutely dependent on accurate
timepieces, but ships officers have to
be satisfied IL they can adjust their
chronometers so that they will either
gain or lose certain amount each day.
Then they add or subtract and get alb
solutely correct time. In plotting rec
ords Of a ships timepiece Its desirable.
ity Is judged by a line that ascenas or
descends with absolute regularity. II
the line rises and falls the instrument
is worthless.
The Case clock stands on a stone pier
independent of the building that ex-
tends sixteen feet to natural shale
foundation. Ii Is In small room sur
rounded by two other rooms. all built
with brick walls. Gas stoves heat the
outer rooms. and electric contact ther-
mometers regulate the temperature.
The gas stove fame automatically rises
or falls with the variation In the out.
side air temperature. Thus on warm
days In August tho iiame In the gas
stove Is very low. while in below zero
January II burns at its brightest, In
the clock room itself the temperature
is adjusted by an ordinary sixteen can
die power incanJescent lamp that Is
dashed on and or by another electric
contact thermometer The school strict
" enfor,es the rule that there must
never be more than two people ir this
inner room at one time. 5,rs.
The clock. which stands i've feet
high. has three separate dials that reg
lister the hours. minutes aud seconds
It Is inclosed in an alright glass jar
inside OF which are delicate instru
ments for measuring temperature. at
mospheric pressure, and moisture "A
small amount OF chloride OF lime. which
is an efficient desiccating material. l.
kept always In the jar to absorb ths
moisture. ~.
BY the aid Of a set OF dry batteries
the clock automatically winds itsell
every seven minutes. The movement
is adjusted slow or fast by pumping
air In or out Of the glass container
Observations are made from the oIt
side through double glass Window

over the dials. W
Not only can this wonderful piece o
clock mechanism be adjusted to show
less than a three second annual varia
ton, but 1t Is also possible to max,
electric connections with other simila
clocks elsewhere. With this as mas
ter clock the others can be made {,
keep the same accurate time.--Youth'

When tramping through country
that has many streams II is usually
better to get upon the nearest ridge
and follow that than to try to make
your way along the course OF some
stream. The ridge will give you bet.

the stream may have to be crossed a

THE BETTER THE STORE THE BET
TER THE ADVERTISING PAYS. Your
own observations in the store-world will
confirm this truth.
PUBLICITY is bad only for bad pro-
position. 1t is just as surely good for good
one.
What Is a "good store"2 One that really
SERVES THE PUBLIC, protecting its pa
irons as to VALUES, not merely as to
PRICES.
There are many stores in this city an
swering to that definition completely. In
every city there are always some stores that
do not. N#
An important phase Of GOOD STORES
SERVICE TO IT'S PATRONS is its news
paper advertising. This should be complete,
frank, informing. 1t should tell the store
news as fully as good newspaper tells the
news of the day.
Perhaps the best possible NEW POLICY
for the GOOD stores of this city to adopt
would be that of DOUBLING THE Al)-
VERTISING SPACE THAT THEY USE
thus giving them "elbow ROOM; giving
them bigger opportunities for telling their
patrons, in detail, about every selling event,
about every bargain offering, about every
dollars worth of new stocks. OF course,
even HALF ENOUGH ADVERTISING
..,asspayse the really good store;. but ADE-
QUATE ADVERTISING would pay much
better,

men from different sections of the
county was held Wednesday afternoon
at 2 o'clock at the mayors Office to
take some action in regard to the labor
conditions in the county. Similar
meetings have taken place in Colum.
bus. Aberdeen and other towns north
of here in the prairie belt and several
agents have been arrested and fined
The best crops they have ever raised
are now being gathered in Arkansas
and the delta, and the best prices they
have ever received are being paid for
cotton. AS this section has suffered
from a short crop for several years it
is easy for labor agents to persuade
laborers to leave this section. A law
passed by the last legislature requires
a labor agent to pay a license of $500,
and any one violating this statute will
be prosecuted if found In the county.

Lee County's Fair

MIR. Frank Kincannon, editor of the
Tupelo Journal; was in town last Sat.
urday looking after his farming inter
ests. He says that Lee county ha6
the most successful Fair this fall she
has ever had = the cattle, hog, poultry
and every other farm exhibit, was
superior to anything they had ever
had. He attributes the increase and
quality of the exhibits to the fact that
Lee county has a live, hustling, agri-
cultural commissioner who has created
a high degree of interest for better
farming. Lee, is probably too, the
leading county in the state in improved
roads, A large acreage of their rich
bottom lands have been dredged and
tile drained. One farmer spent in one
year $40, 900 draining his lands. His
neighbors told him he was crazy, but
he got it back in increased profits from
the land in two years.
Mr.. Kincannon says that the crops
in his county this year are no better, If
as good as ours, but the rains they had
in July made the precipitation we had
here seem like April showers.
