NEW DIRECTORY
OF CITY is ISSUED
SHOWS SLIGHT DECREASE I'M
POPULATION OF COLUMBUS
SINCE 1914.

A new local city directory, COM
piled by r. L. Polk 4 Co., Of Mem
phis, has just been issued and shows
the population Of Columbus to be
1921. This is a loss Of l.469 since
the last directory was issued and
gave the city a population Of l2,-
1,l90.
The decrease in population was
by no means unexpected, as it was
generally known that many people
had left Columbus during the past
three years. The exodus begain in
the fall Of 1916, when many negroes
,emigrated northward. and during the
past year hundreds Of local young
men have left to join Uncle Sans
fighting forces. Then too, many
citizens have gone to Sheffield and
other industrial centers to engage in
war work, and the departure u 50
many people has naturally depleted
the city's population.
