Mrs. Minnie Morgan Shows.

On Thursday at the Kings
Daughters Hospital the spirit Of
Minnie Morgan, the pretty
young dauhgter of MI. and Mrs.
H. T. Morgan winged its flightfin-
to the better country. The young
wife and prospective mother was
brought here Wednesday from her
home in Sumrall by her young hus-
band, Mr.. ]. P. Shows, and died
after an obstetrical operation in
the effort to prolong her life.
Mrs. Shows was sixteen years of
age; was married last July and
was very happy in every relation
of life. The blow has fallen heav-
lily upon the husband who has just
reached his majority and upon the
devoted parents, brothers and sis
tiers.
The funeral services were held
at the Morgan home on East Cher
okee at one O'Clock yesterday, Pas
tor w. H. Morgan, of the Baptist
Church, officiating in the presence
of large company of sympathiz-
ing friends.
Beautiful springtime blossoms,
fair and fragrant as the young life
gone out, adorned the casket and
breathed of the further shore where
the sunshine abides and the flowers
of happiness bloom in perpetual
beauty along the River of Lie.

is rent by Immortality then shall
we see, not darkly, but face to face
and we shall understand.
Rosehill Cemetery received into
its quiet city the body of the be-
loved girl. s

den gloom
A shadow on those features fair
and thin;
And softly, from that hushed and
darkened room,
Two angels issued where but one
went in.

BrOOkhaven Boy Praised.

Mr.. w. H. Nalty, of Brookhaven,
Miss, made this Office a pleasant
call this, Friday morning. Mr..
Nalty paid a beautiful tribute to
Hammond, and said with her peo-
pie united for progress this town
had possibilities and a future not
vet dreamed of. He said it was a
hundred per cent better than ever
before and with continuation of
its present progressive ideas, was
bound to become city of promi-
nence and prosperity. Mr.. Nalty
has long contemplated making
some substantial investments in
Hammond, and has not abandoned
the idea. He has one of the finest
crsameries and ice plants in Mis-
sissippi, and is a man of broad in
tellect and great determination. -

Helen Keller, Feb. 2s.

Miss Helen Keller is a personali-
ty in whom everyone is interested,
Not only we Americans but in all
foreign lands where education and
enlightenment have prepared the
people to appreciate such a charac-
ter, something of her life and ac-
uuirements are known.
Having an unusually bright
mind, Miss Keller has been trained
to have quick perceptions thru the
sense of touch and under the con-
stant teaching of her friend and
companion, Mrs. Macy, has devel-
oped into a woman of rare achieve
ments.
While listening to Miss Keller's
lecture only a small idea of the
amount of skill and patience ex-
pended can be imagined. Every
sound she utters represents thought
and knowledge on the part OF her
teacher and effort and repetition
for the pupil.
By imitation which the pupil
follows thru the sense of touch the
idea of formation of words and
sounds are taught.
Not only of English but of
French and German Miss Keller
has acquired a fluent command.
II has been said by native
French and German that her
enunciation of those languages are
remarkably good.
AS the result of constant instruc-
ton and uninterrupted study the
world has in Miss Keller a source
of interest to scientists, an inspira-
ton to all students and a character
beloved and admired by all for her
courageous outlook and broad COM
prehension of the beauty of life.
Tickets for Miss Keller's lecture
will be so and rs.

On next Wednesday the 23rd,
Mr.. A. B. Mckay of the A. & M.
College of Starkville, will lecture
on Improved Marketing -Condi-
tons to the farmers and citizens
of Grange Hall neighborhood at 10
O'Clock A. M, and on the same
day at 2 O'Clock will lecture on the
same subject at Friendship School.
On Thursday the 24th, there
will be big rally of the patrons
of Heuck's Retreat School where a
genuine Home Grown dinner will
be served, and it is expected that
the patrons of Fair River School
will join in and be present at this
meeting. On that occasion DR.. j..
w. Beavers, of Meridian, and Mr..
A. B. Mckay, will address the
crowd on matters of particular in
terest to the citizens of our Coun-
ty, and as a cordial invitation has
been extended by Heuck's Retreat
School to the business men OF
Brookhaven it is likely that there
will be large attendance of repre-
sentative Brookhaven citizens at
this big rally day in that commu-
nifty.
Friday being Field Day for Lin
coin County Mr.. Mckay will also
deliver a lecture at the City Hall
at 1890 a. m. appropriate for that

Sunday School Contest.

Summit is enjoying contest in
attendance between the Baptist
and Methodist Sunday Schools.
Prof. r. L. Bedwell and Hon. Will
"a. ParsonSa are the superintendents.
People are going to Sunday School
and remaining to church.
At present the Methodists are
leading by nine points.
The Summit Sentinel says AT
ter Sunday School last Sunday at
the Methodist church, DR.. !. w.
Cooper, president of Whitworth
College, preached a powerful and
absorbingly interesting sermon to
a large and appreciative audience,
prefacing his remarks with a high
compliment to, and the deep ap-
probation felt for the services rem
dered by Rev. w. N. Thomas, the
local pastor, in assisting in con-
.ducting a protracted meeting at
Whitworth College last week, dur
Ing which quite a number lolneu
the church.
In Brookhaven reports are read
before the schools each Sunday
morning from other local schools
and interest and emulation are
thus inspired in the children. 1t
is the aim and hope of pastors and
workers to reach the children
brought under their supervision,
who cannot be reached on the out
side, and to inculcate the spirit
and principles of the Faith when
they have succeeded in getting
them to attend the Sunday Schools
for any reason.

Meeting Of Joint Committee from the
Climbers and Peripatctics.

Pursuant to the call of the Presi-
dent of the General Federation Of
Wonen's Clubs, the National
Chairman of Public Health, Civics
and Home Economics, together
with the Federal Children's Bu-
reau, the club women of Brookha-
ven, represented by joint COM
mittee, met Tuesday afternoon at
the City Hall, for the purpose OF
making plans relative to Brookha-
ven taking part in the nation wide
Baby Week, March 4th to 18th,
1916. The Committee decided to
devote one day, March llth, to
this work.
Ali the towns in the state; and
all the towns and cities in the
United States are getting busy in
this definite Baby Saving Cam
paign, taking the form of Baby
Week.
Why the need of the Baby Saw
ing Movement? The words, in
fant mortality" have ceased to be
mere technical terms. They mean
now to everybody that there are in
the United States three hundred
thousand babies, who die, (many
from preventable causes) every
year before they are a year old.
There is no man or woman in this
community without part to play
in this fight. For this baby saving
campaign provides a practical way
for us to help. Will you help?
What is Baby Week? During
the past year, many baby weeks
have been held in cities and towns
throughout the United States.
The success of those in New York,
Chicago, Detroit and other cities
has proved beyond doubt the value
of Baby Week as factor in the
baby saving movement. These
observances vary from a simple
community program to meetings
of days devoted to the considera-
ton of the subject of the baby,
and an elaborate campaign includ-
ing exhibits, health conferences,
lectures, ETC.
Therefore, said joint committee
of clubwomen asks the cooperation
of the church women in their soci-
eties and of all doctors and den
fists, of all women in the country
districts. and all organizations OF
men to aid in observing March 18th
as the day. Brookhaven will put
forth effort for the sake of the ba-
bies of Lincoln County.

BILsO ORDERS OUT TROOPS.
Refusal Of J. D. Baugh to Give Up
Office Brings Clash Case
in Courts.

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 17.-Gov.
|T. G. Bilbo, late today ordered the
Clarksdale company of the Missis-
sippi National Guard into active
service to protect L. A. Fisher, in
taking charge of the sheriff's Office
in Coahoma county. The COM
nany is in command of Capt. Wal
ter Birdsong and its operations are
under direction of Adj. Gen. Eric
Scales, who left Jackson tonight
for Clarksdale.
A few days ago Attorney Gener-
al Ross Collins, at the direction of
Gov. Bilbo, instituted mandamus
proceedings to GUST Sheriff ]. D.
Baugh, who the governor alleges
is short in his settlement with the
state for previous term. The
governor also issued a proclama-
ton ousting Baugh from Office and
appointing L. A. Fisher as sheriff.
Baugh has refused to give up the
Office and has asked the Supreme
Court for an injunction restraining
Fisher from superceding him until
the question of his eligibility can
be passed upon. The Supreme
Court has not yet announced its
decision.
In the meantime Fisher will at
tempt to perform the duties of the
office under the protection of the
National Guard on the governor S
orders.
At the August primaries Fisher
was a candidate against Baugh for
the Democratic nomination for
Sheriff, but was defeated by him
by decided majority, and in the
general election in November,
Baugh was elected without opposi7
ton.
