PEOPLE Of
MISSISSIPPI
Enorse the Administration of
the P, csident. Vardeman
Beaten by 10000
HARRISON is ELECTED

Practically complete returns from
SO of the 80 counties of the State
give Congressman B. P. Harrison a
majority of more than 10000 votes
over Senator Jas. X. Vardaman ana
former Governor Z. f. Noel, his op-
ponents in the Senatorial primary
held throughout Mississippi yester-
day. These so counties polled an
aggregate of $4,000 votes. Should
the proportion keep up in the re-
naming counties, which scattering
returns indicate will be the case,
Harrison will win by a majority OF
from $1,000 to 10000, making 4
second primary unnecessary. Sena-
tor Vardiman left last night for
Washington, but before leaving
made the following statement
"The reports SO far, my friends,
have been very unfavorable, but we
are not yet defeated. Sit steady in
the boat and hope for the best. My
defeat, if | am defeated, is only
temporary, and if the people of Mis-
sissippi have made a mistake we will
abide by it with complete composure
as they will undoubtedly correct
their mistake. AS ] said before, ii
defeated, the defeat will be only
temporary. want to thank my
friends for their loyal support"
w. Calvin Wells, secretary Of the
Harrison. campaign, gave out the fol-
lowing statement:
"Unquestionably Mr.. Harrison has
been nominated in the first primary.
Mississippi is vindicated in the eyes
of the world and her loyalty can NO
longer be questioned"
In the sixth congressional district
it was evident second primary
would be necessary to determine the
winner in the race for the seat va
Gated by Congressman Harrison.
Fourteen of the seventeen counties
in the district show: Bilbo 3,945;
Bowers 1885, Johnson 1894.
Indications were that incumbents
would be nominated in the other
congressional districts Congress-
man Vanable apparently was an easy
winner in the fifth district, although
he is at present with the Congress
sional Naval Committee in Europe
and has been unable to deliver any
campai/I speeches.
In Jackson, Nardamans home
city, complete returns showed Har-
rison 964, Vardaman 1872 and Noel
80. In Vardiman ward the vote
was Harrison 121; Vardaman 2S.'
Kinds county, carried last time by
Vardaman, showed with a few small
precincts missing: Harrison 1853;
Vardaman sos; Noel 152. A letter
from President Wilson stating he
could not but regard Vardaman's
election as a condemnation of my
administration by the people of Mis-
sissippi," was regarded as having
been strong factor in cutting down
the Vardaman vote. Both Harrison
and Noel in their campaigns stress
ed patriotism and loyalty.
Vardaman throughout the cam
paign denied all charges of disloyal
conduct or action. He said he "of
ten disagreed with the President"
but was never disloyal

CHILDREN STUDY
IN THE OPEN AIR

The open air school has been tried

plan. God evidently intended that
man should work and play and sleep
In the open air. Danger from wild
animals and from hostile neighbors
drove primitive man to seek shelter
in caves and fortresses and In time
he lost his desire for the free blow

With indoor life came disease. in

diseases?
The first open air school In the
United States was opened In Provi.

day more than one thousand such
schools in this country. Wherever

in health but also have been quicker

years entirely replace the present

which would save money for the
tax payer as we'll as greatly benefit
the pupils and their teachers.

These words Sam Houston carried

restrictions in this country on
the use Of meat and at the same

Reducing Fire Danger.

The fire hazard should be considered
in the location and construction OF all
new farm buildings. Many groups o.
farm buildings are SO located and con-
structed that any fire which might
break out In one building would be
almost sure to destroy the whole
crou When a new building Is to be
erected 1t Is worth while ut least to
consider placing It where 1t will Dc
reasonably safe from fire starting 10
any other building and where 1t vii
not be q menace to other buildings.
Concrete construction is being usec
on many farms, and 1t Is especially
desirable for smokehouses, incubator
rooms, and any other small buildings
which are exceptionally subject to los
by fire. The first cost of a well'con
structed concrete building general!
will be greater than that Of a WOO
building Of the same size, but the con
crete will last practically forever, an
will seldom need paint or repairs.
A fire in such a building can 90 nu
slight damage to the building itsel
and there Is very little likelihood q
its spreading to any Of the adjoin'a
buildings.
