MOTHER MILL on Pine cree

A MOTHER MILL on Pine creek.
~ Following the meeting Of the
stockholders of the Northern
Light Mining & Milling conn
pany at the Samuels hotel Monday
evening, Ben G. Harmon, manager of
the company, made the definite an
nouncement that the company had
decided TO proceed at once with the
construction Of a mill of $50 tons ca
!. pacity and that it would be oomplet-
ed and in operation in the early fall
This announcement was not unexpect-
ed, for it has been evident since the
large ore body was struck on the 400
level and its subsequent exploration
that the Northern Light had reached
stage in Its development that JUS
tilted the construction of a mill. The
ore shoot has been proved by drifting
to have a length of 230 feet. From
this level winze has been sunk in
ore 100 feet or more, and also from
this level raise has been made so
feet, thus proving the ore for a depth
of 150 feet above and below the level.
1tssaverage width is 6h feet The ore
is both lead and zinc, but there are
no difficulties in the way Of success
fully separating them, such as are en-
countered in connection with some OF
the lead zinc ores on Pine creek. The
mill will be modern in every particu-
I lar, possessing every facility for a
close recovery of both metals.
Other Ore Resources.
The Big ore body on the 400-foot
level is not the only ore resource of
the Northern Light. Two other veins
have been extensively explored on
both the 200 and 400 levels, resulting
In disclosing much ore. but not as
large bodies as the one described
There is every indication that these
ore reserves will be largely increased
with further development, and 1t is
altogether likely that the 150-ton mill
will before long be found to be made
quate to meet the requirements of the
mine.

The Binion-Cocflran Wedding.

On Thursday evening, November 18th,
the Presbyterian church of Macon WAS
the scene of a most beautiful wedding,
when Miss Ritz Binion, youngest daugh-
ter of Mr., and Mrs. A. d. Binion, be-
came the wife of Mr.. Vadah Cochran
of Holly SpIings, Miss.
The churc was tastefully and beau
tifully decorated with green vines and
pink chrysanthemums. Pink tarleton,
too, was effectively used, and with nu-
merous irradescent lights peeping out
from its filmy folds it reminded one of
the bright morning stars as they peep
through the pink clouds of dawn. Pink
and green cardles were everywhere in
evidence and when lighted gave that
softness of tore. to the illum nations,
which nothing else can supply.
Just prior to the entrance of the bri-
dal party, Miss Mary Lou Greene, be-
comingly attired in pink lustre silk,
that harmonized most appropriately
with the decorations, was escorted to
her place by Mr.. Hugh Mayon, and sang
in her sweetest voice, Because" and
Il Love YOU" The accompaniment
was all that it should have been since
Macon's wonderful boy musician,
Creighton Allen, had charge of the or
gan, and played with that intense beau.
ty and feeling as he alone can.
At the first sound of Mendelssohn' 8
Wedding March, Or. Jones stepped for
ward to his place in the chance, and
the ushers, Messrs. Jas. Tucker and
Hugh M -yon, wearing conventional
evening stumes, marched to their re
spe, tive l4ces on either side of the al
tar. Tt ~ were followed by Master
James E, ward Bass, clad in spotess
white, ar bearing the ring on huge
pink chry IN hemun. He marched gal
lanty fo' yard and found his place ith
such dign y as become one of hi ge.
Immedia y following him was Miss
Eth .dra ipessard, lifelong playmate
and trienl of tie bride, who acted as
maid Of honor, and Mrs. Julian Boggess.

The campaign for War Y. NJ. c. A.
funds found the good people of Noxubee
again able and willing to do their duty.
Asked for 50. 600 the county paid in
cash during the week $1,000 While
he maximum -$4 000-was not reached.
study of the assessments and dons-
tons of other counties of the state
shows that Noxubee did her part glori-
ously.
Due to the short time allowed for the
campaign and the inability of the COM
mittee to get speakers, until the last
moment, many people were not made
to realize the Importance of the War
Y. NJ. c. A work and its bearing upon
the outcome of the World War. If sll
of the people of the county had given
generously. as some did, the county
would h We raised $5, 600. Then, too.
with the exception of one or two COM
munities, the colored people of the
county were not solicited. The reason
for this was that plans were being
made to have campaign among the
colored people for the benefit of the
Red Cross. An account of this campaign
is given elsewhere in this issue.
We wish that we had the space to
publish the names of those who con-
tributod to the cause, for we feel that
such a list is an honor roll that the
county should be proud of. The COM
mittees who canvassed for funds report
that most of the people approached
gave cheerfully and as literally as
their means would permit; that Noxu-
bee county has very, very few slackers
and that many who did not contribute
did not understand the work of the War
Y. NJ. C A. However, it is understood
that the funds raised in the present
campaign will not carry tn work
through tho war, and that all VIII az ain
be given this opportunity to show their
love for country and the Willingness to
do their part in the course of few
more months.
We give below the last reports given
out by the committees, though it is un-
derstood that some contributions have
been made since this report. These

Rice Propaganda To Nation
alize Southern Food.

Reports from various sections
of the Rice Belt indicate sub
stantial response to the plan Of
rice growers and millers to create
a fund of $50, ZOO to $4,000 a
year, for three or more years, to
nationally advertise rice as a
standard food. It is. likely the
rice leaders will meet in Beau
montearly in January to perfect
the organization of a separate
association whose sole purpose
will be to put rice on the daily
tables Of the American public.
The New Orleans Times Plea
yunei in discussing the Gulf Coast
oyster industry, pointing out the
cheapness of oysters and It's
values as q food, takes occasion
also to commend this other Gulf
Coast product and said Another
Louisiana and Texas product,
rice, can claim the same advan-
tage of remaining practically
unchanged in price when nearly
every other food product has gone
skyward. =
It is this fact that is solarge-
" responsible for the present
movement to nationally popula-
rize rice and it IS generally agreed
that the time is opportuns for

Why not interest your boys

leisure each day. If this time is

in which he is interested, it will

No occupation, probably, has
more possibilities for the develop

When We stop to consider that
the poultry business is second to

another good reason for interest

money besides.
