MissOuLd Reading
Practical Books;
Sociology Leading
Librarians Report Shows
Increase in Serious
Studying.

That the general public is becoming
interested in the useful arts in a
greater degree than ever before is in
dicated in the report of City Librarian
Grace NJ. Stoddard. which shows that
there has been an increasing demand
for the books on this subject. The re-
port covers the month of September
and shows that 100 books on the sub
ject were in circulation during the
month.
Sociology takes the lead in the cir
culation outside of adult and juvenile
fiction, while books on philology and
philosophy are the least appealing to
the public.

The Wagon That
Caused Two
Weeks Delay :

Did you ever hear the story of farmer who bought
wagon from mail order house,
1t was only short time until this wagon needed re-
pairs. No local store of course, carried them. The
farmer had to order the parts needed from the mail
der house in distant city
He was without the use of the wagon for about two
weeks waiting for the repairs to come. After they
finally arrived, he found them to be for different
Notwithstanding another two weeks delay.
Just another instance of the advantage of trading at
home.
Had that wagon been purchased from local mer-
chant telephone call would have brought the neces-
sary parts the next day.
Not only has the home town dealer the best goods
that be obtained but he offers you "home service
as we'll.
Here's valuable lesson for our farmer friends to
learn
Missoula frms-it matters not what the line may be
carry full and complete stocks. Their prices are as
good as can be obtained elsewhere. Repairs ex-
changes can be made on short notice and valuable
time saved The Missoula merchant is ready and will
ing to adjust personally all complaints.
Is it far more to your advantage to have the per-
sona service that goes with your dealings from Mis-
soula merchant, than the long delayed mail order
service?

A Hound for Punishment.

Sam was outweighed by his antag-

the wild man and counter attacking
him fore and aft; also, he was hound

Well, back to the little man with the

haymaker on Sans jaw and was about
to follow it up with a left hook to the

The Charge Is Without
Foundation

The Okolona Messenger makes
an editorial attempt to reply to a
paragraph that appeared in the
Herald tive weeks ago touching
the resolutions of a few citizens
of Chickasaw county condemning
Congressman Sisson and brand
ing the speech he delivered at
Okolona as "disloyal" to the
government. etc.
He makes the fiat charge that
the Herald perverted the facts
and calls us disloyal because we
said it was to be regretted that
so many able men are making
their races for Office on the ques-
ton of war or anti war. There
is rot a scintilIa of disloyalty in
the sentence from the Herald
and sensible naan who is in
clined to be fair knows there is
not. There are questions that il
were far better for the well-be-
ing of all concerned that they be
not d scussed publicly and if the
editor of the Messenger is not
able to recognize this fact he
should consult some thinking
man and find it out.
The editor Of the Herald is just
as loyal to his government as the
editor of the 0koiona Messenger,
or anyone else. You may search
our files for the past three years
and you will find not one unpa-
triotic sentence in it; not a false,
nor "wiIf1 misstatement of
fact, except, perhaps, in the
narrow judgement of the editor
of the Messenger. We are some
times mistaken, as are all hui
man beings, and sometimes mis-
informed, as in the case in point
when we said that d young law
yer of Okolona was DESTROYS of
running for congress, if it be
truetfat said young lawyer re-
sides at Houston instead of at
Okolona. At any rate we were
not far wrong since he resides
in Chickasaw county, the county
in which 0koIona is situated.
And a matter of a few miles in
this instance makes little, if any,
difference.
The Messenger said. IF there
IS young lawyer, old lawyer,
middled aged lawyer or any 9TH
er kind OF a iswyer or other per-
son ii or right scar Okolona who
