TAG YOUR SHOVEL" DAY

Wednesday was 'tag your shovel
day, and was observed in Tupelo to
the fullest extent. All the schools OF
the city were dismissed for the day
and the pupils reported at their res
pective school buildings, both white
and colored, at the usual hour in the
morning and were supplied with tags
and then they scattered to all parts
of town on their mission of tagging
all the coal shovels to be found. The
tags read "Save a shovelful of coal
for Uncle Sam today"
No doubt these simple tags will be
the means of saving tons of coal all
over the country that otherwise would
have been burned. 1t is a fact that
most people could do with some less
fire, and when the shovel is reached
for to ~replenish the CRATE the tag will
make it's appeal and the desire to put
on more coal will be resisted for a
while, and thus the saving will be eff
fected. The children enjoyed the
outing, and real good will come OF
their efforts.

Farmers Home Journal rises to
speak a good word for the hen and
her part in winning the war. "In all
this talk about food production the
humble hen should not be forgotten,

of eggs and meat and can reproduce
herself more quickly than ny other
sort of live stock, and in doing it can
use no more varieties of waste food

MARY STUART CHAPTER

Mary Stuart Chapter, D. A. r.,
had a most interesting meeting Fri
day afternoon when the regent, Mrs.
E. D. Hood was hostess. The many
guests felt repaid for having braved
the ice and snow when they were
greeted with the delightful cheer Of
this magnificent home.
The freshness and beauty of the
ferns and pot plants reminded one of
the spring days, which have seemed SO
far distant.
A most pleasing picture was the
mother of this home as she sat knit
ing a sweater for the Red Cross.
The meeting opened with a prayer
led by Mrs. Yates followed by the
business session., Mrs. E. D. Hood
presiding.
The committee of jellies and pre-
serves, of which Mrs. Nell T. Berk-
lev is chairman, had a most beautiful
array of about 60 glasses and jars
donated by Tupelo ladies for the
sick soldiers at Camp Shelby canton
ment in Mississippi.
The report from the Treasurer was
indeed gratifying, all pledges for 1917
being paid and a small balance on
hand.
Mesdames Perkins, Anderson and
High were appointed to select the
subject for best Historical Essay,
which is to capture the annual d. A.
r. metal.
1t is with pleasure that we recall
the services rendered by the clubs in
the Treasure and Trinket fund.
Mrs. J.. r. Jones read a highly in
teresting extract from the N. S. D..
A. R. magazine, giving a full account
of the work done to help win the
war for Democracy. Two special
features of this work are the adop-
ton of many French orphans and the
restoration of the French village of
Fillolay on the Aisne.
Mrs. V. c.. Kincannon read a letter
stating just what each member could
do in this wen chosen work. !
Mrs. C. w. Troy read a letter re-
lative to the N. S. D. A. R. establish ,
ing a fund known as the N.S.D.A.R.
Liberty Loan Fund to be used to pur-
chase a 100000 bond.
The following ladies were unani-
mously endorsed for reelection: Mrs. Z,
Edmond Favor Noel, state regent;
Mrs. John M. Morgan, state vice-re-
gent.
Mrs. S. D. Wilson was elected del
egate to attend the State Conference
in Jackson February 2O-22.
Tea and sandwiches were served
during the social hour, the hostess
being assisted by her charming sister,
Mrs. Kate Armstrong.
Monthly meeting will be held at
Red Cross headquarters. A fine of
25 cents will be collected for failure
to attend. Secretary.

CHLROPRACTIC

Many people are skeptical of any
and everything they do not under
stand. Without the expenditure Of a
moments thought they positively pro-
claim every new idea a fake for the
sole a that to them it is unin-
telligible. 1t is not to be wondered,
therefore, that such a radical depart
ure from physiological dogma as
Chiropractic is should be Immediate
ly stigmatized as a fraud by bigotted
practitioners and unenlightened lalty.
Some a v "What possible assistance
can be given a diseased kidney, liv-
er, stomach, or uterus by Chiropractic
adjustments? The whole thing seems
to be absurd" Pulling the trigger of
a gun is remarkably easy, and with
out a knowledge of the latent force
within the cartridge, it's effect upon
any living thing within the. line OF
fire might well appear incredible. But
to those who can reason from cause
to effect, the consequences are as
clearly defined as can we'll be. So
it is with Chiropractic adjustment; it
Immediately releases the latent force
which is an inherent part of all liv-
ing matter, stirring dormant matter
to life and action. And it's value in
the restoration of conditions wherein
normal functioning of the various or
gans may be resumed is testified to
by thousands of chronic invalids who
have regained normal health through
its agency.

CONCERING

When a plumber makes a mistake,
he charges time for it.
When a lawyer makes a mistake
it is just what he wanted, for he has
a chance to try it all over again.
When a carpenter makes a mistake
it is just what he expected, because
the chances are ten to one he never
learned his business.
When an electrician makes a mis-
take he blames it on induction" be-
cause nobody knows what that is.
When a doctor makes a mistake,
he buries it.
When a judge makes a mistake, it
becomes the law of the land.
When a preacher makes a mistake,
nobody knows the difference.
But a chiropractor, he is different.
He has to be careful. He cannot turn
his mistakes into a profession, as
other people. 3The public is watch
ing you. You've got to make
good."-The Magnet.-Adv.
