CLEVELAND. oct 23.--Ships and an

audience here.
Lord Northcliffe is not worried about the
success Of the second Liberty Loan. He as

can realizes that unless each Liberty Loan
was promptly oversubscribed the United
States would suffer defeat and the nation
be fettered with huge indemnities Neither
Is he worried about the ability Of the United
States to supply all the men and munitions
the Allies need
But he is worried about the ability OF the
allied nations to get the essentials ot mod
ern warfare-food, coal, munitions and mer

Where are our shps?" Lord Northcline
pleaded war material and food, millions
Of tons Of IT, are lying idle in the harbors

ers urge the mercantile marine 10 speed VI

Build ships, all kinds. so long ms they

the burden Of Lord NorthClhe's appeals
10 the nations citizens.
Put every man you can spare into the

Boy Scouts Hike In Spite of Rain

The Boy Scout movement is flourish
ing in Macon as never before and the
boys have gone into the work with
such earnestness that a successful
year is expected. The members who
passed their examination last year
have already received their member
ship cards and badges, and are now a
part of great American organization
that has about two hundred thousand
boys in It and is destined to become
one Of the greatest educative move
ments in the history Of the country.
Their membership cards bear their
notices, "Be Prepared" and "Do a
Good Turn Daily" and are signed by
Woodrow Wilson. W. H. Taft and
Theodore Roosevelt.
The Boy Scouts took their first real
hike last Saturday. In spite Of the
rain they walked to Brooksville, and
on account Of having to change their
route after they got started they had
to walk about fifteen miles. Scout
master Barkley accompanied the
eighteen boys and reports that he has
never seen a finer set of youngsters
and that they all stuck in spite of the
rain and distance. The organization is
planning many things of interest, and
many hikes will be taken during the
spring and summer.

The Ndzarene
One Of Macon's Best Productions Of
Home Talent

In honor of Mr.. w. M. Jones, a
faithful member of the Baptist
choir, a sacred cantata was given
Sunday evening at the Baptist
church, under the direction of one
of MacOn's most talented musi.
clans, Mrs. L'Estelle Barclay.
The program was a story in
song of the life of Christ: It
opened with the world in dark
ness, emphasized by the church
being darkened. The creation Of
day was made more impressive by
a gradual lighting of the auditor.
um. Brilliant lights shone from
everywhere; the soft cluster above,
the groups around the wall and
even the footlights on the pulpit,
!ll combined to make a real repre-.
ientation of the creation of day
md throughout the house there
vas a sacred silence as Mr.. Jones,
in whose honor it was given, sang
in his rich deep bass voice the
prophecy of the birth of Christ.
Before each number the pastor
read from the bible the pas
sages put into song. One of
the most effectiye numbers was
"He Shall Feed His Flocks,'
sung by little Carrie Hibbler
Jones.
The program was interspersed
with many sweet and beautiful
solos, duets, trios, etc, rendered
by Macon's vocal talent.
The evening closed with the
resurrection and triumph of
Christ.
Mrs. Barclay is particularly
gifted in this kind of work AMI
she deserves much credit for,the
great success of the evening.

Report Of Grand Jury.

TO Hon. r b. Carroll Judge of the 10Th District
We, your grand jury. duly charget
at the present term Of this court ir
and for the County of Noxubee. hav'
ing been in session for four days ant
having examined 81 witnesses and re
turned into open court IL true bills.
We find crime on the decrease in oul
county. All the books Of the county
officers are in good shape 90 far rs we
are able to tell from our limited time
to investigate.
We regret having kept the court
waiting for us but have been looking
into some matters Of vital importance,
which necessarily made our work slow.
We thank your honor for your patience
in the matter and for your brief but
plain charge as to our duty. We also
desire to thank the county and district
attorneys for their able service and
advice to us during our deliberations,
they standing at all times for law en-
forcemeut but advising us under all
circumstances not to indict unless we
feel sure that the bill can be sustained,
and We haye been very careful not to
ind tih except in those cases in
which we feel that the law and evil
dence is plain, and this has caused us
to have to travel slow.
Again thanking your honor for your
kindness and trusting that when you
get home you will find yoor family
well. We ask to be discharged.
Respectfully,

Letter From Big Bud
Macon. Miles,, Feb. 81, 1917.

Macon. Miles,, Feb. Il, 1917.
Mr.. Editor
My grandson, Pierre Robert. won:a
medal for defamation last year given
by the Dialectic Society of the A. &
M. This year the W. c. T. u,
presided over by Mrs. Hughes, offered
six medalsi for the best delivered
speech on prohibition; two for the
Juniors; two for the Sophomores and
two for the Freshmen, divided into
squads of eight. Although Pierce was
the youngest Of his squad. he won the
medal given to them and in about two
weeks the eight successful young men
will have to compete for gold medal
given by the same society and am
hoping that although all the boys are
older and larger than Pierce that he
will win this also as he has quite a
talent In this line.
The boys are having q great deal of
fun with Prof. Gaines right now since
the announcement Of his marriage.
They call him Romeo and have: all
sorts Of fun with him, but he takes it
good naturedly. He loves the boys
and is quite popular with them. He
told me that on last Sunday night he
was teaching class on missions, and
where he should have said that all
ought to unite for social enjoyment
he said all ought to marry for social
enjoyment. He told me that from the
noise made that you would have
thought they were having football
game in the lecture room and one of
them had made q touchdown. He
showed me a composition one Of the
boys wrote, which was about two
pages long; and down at the bottom
the boy had written ''hearty congratu-
lations." / told Gaines I did not
know what sort Of composition that
boy had writtensbut after seeing this,
I knew he had given him ITO on this
paper.
Last Saturday evening the Juniors
played the Sophomores football
game; ! do not like football 30 well
but after this was over we went over
to the other ground where the Univer-
sity and A. & M. had a basket ball
game and liked this game very much
indeed; it makes the players both
active and quick and is fine exercise.
A. & N. has a splendid body Of boys
and one that any state can he proud OF
and Mr.. Smith is making good and the
college was never doing better.
Big Bud.
