The Supervisors wound up Thurs
day on their work at the special SEES

required by the State Tax Board
They did not finish, however, with
the Realty roll and will complete the
work upon it at their regular session

By request of pastor l. D. Eaven

Weber Wilson, county attorney of
Laurel, will deliver an address at
the Leakesville Baptist church Sun
day morning at IL o'clock on some
religious subject. Wilson and Eav-

DR.. p. W. Tompkins showed US
vial of several Iarge-sized ticks
which he secured from off of some
oxen which the Vinegar Bend Lbr.
Co. brought in last week from Wash
ington County, Ala.,-a non tick
free county--into the Mills settle
ment on Upper East Side. OF
course they put them under quaran-
tine quick as they found it, out till
they could be freed of ticks by the
vat route and legal proceedings are
gong to be brought against the com
pany for violating the tick law.
This has proved very quiet week
in the county capital. It's true the
supervisors we're in session in a way
but twas in a quiet way. they were
in the Chancery clerk Office where
the adding machine etc. is accessible
and are doing no other business but
working on the assessment rolls and
consequently drawing no folks and
we guess the people as whole must
be busy about final ticks of harvest
ing and hence not stirring about
much. while the weather is yet good
and favorable for such work in the
open.
In attempting Tuesday afternoon
to pull over temporary track laid

ing officers and enlisted men on &C
tive duty to wear uniform after that
date.

Club, therefore, II will likely be held

officers and men are on active duty"
and since they have been on active
duty twenty-four hours a day since

WOMEN ORGANIZE
TO AID EDUCATION
IN THE DISTRICT

Plans were completed today by a
new organization OF prominent wom-
en- Of the National Capital, including
two whose husbands are members of
President Wilson's Cabinet, to play
the role Of doctor" and cure the
school system OF the District Of any
Enments that may afflict 1t.
The new organization Is known as
the National Conference for Elemen-
tary Education, and includes among
tts membership Mrs. Thomas Watt
Gregory, wife Of the Attorney Gen.
era1, and Mrs. Josephus Daniels. wife
Of the Secretary OF the Navy. Other
prominent members are Mrs. George
Thacher Guernsey and Mrs. George c.
Squires. Mrs. Champ Clark, Mrs.
George Barnett, Mrs. Stephen B. Elk
ins, and Mrs. John Hays Hammond.
To shsw New Methods.
The plan OF the organization is to
establish demonstration schools in
which Industrial, vocational. and lit
erary training will be given. 1t is
planned, through model schools, to
contrast the inefficiency OF present
methods with one which actually
meets the needs of today.
THE school system here Is ad-
vanced over that OF many districts"
said Mrs. William Butler Bonham,
general secretary, today, but there
Is considerable lost motion here, as
elsewhere.
I'VE do not plan a radical IN
stantaneous change, but will try, &,
by conferences between ourselves, the
superintendents. and the Board of
Education to eradicate some of the
prevalent evils. A closer cooperation
Of teachers, parents, and studenty
should be effected for the best re-
suits.
Plans Vocational Teaching.
ut Is a recognized fact that when
q student completes school, he is not
fitted for any particular work. He Is
unable to apply what has been learn
ed We, as a nation, are entering upon
q new era. industrial and commercial,
and our organization aims TO aid in
the conservation Of human material
and in preparedness in its highest and
broadcast conception"
Among the subjects to be discussed
are rudiments OF law and medicine,
the art Of letter writing, care of the
body. and fundamental principles OF
elementary subjects, and how to
broaden the teaching OF these sub
5ects.
Although considerable attention
will be devoted to the school system
here, the schools of the coGntry will
not be neglected, but auxiliaries will
be formed to carry out the plan in
different sections.

"PAPE'S DIAPEPSiN" MAKES SICK.
SOUR, Classy SToMAcHS

Do some foods you eat hit back
taste good. but work badly; ferment in
to acids and cause a sick, sour, gassy
stomach? Now, Mr.. or Mrs. Dyspeptic
jot this down: Pape's Diapepsin helps
neutralize the excessive acids in the
stomach so your food won't sour and
upset you. There never was anything
so safely quick, SO certainly effective
No difference how badly your stomach
is upset you usually get happy relief in
five minutes, but what pleases you most
is that it helps to regulate your stomach
so you can eat your favorite foods with
out fear.
Most remedies give you relief some
times-they are slow, but not sure.
"Pape's Diapepsin" Is positive in neu-
tralizing the acidity, SO the misery
won't come back very quickly.
You feel different as soon as "Pape's
Diapepsin" comes in contact with the

your head clears and you feel fine.
Go now, make the best investment
you ever made, by getting a large fifty
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin from any

how needless 1t Is to suffer from indi-
gestion, dyspepsia or any stomach dis
order due to acid fermentation.
