In regard to the moving of cotton

YOUTH DROWNED IN RIVER.
Goes Beyond Depth and Finds Watery
Grave.

On Saturday afternoon, four young
fellows, from fifteen to eighteen years
of age, were given permission by their
parents to go to the Yalobusha river
near the farm of Mr.. w. r. Baker
8 miles west of Grenada for a fish.
Only two of the boys could swim
and it is stated that the other two
were specially enjoined not to 90 in
the water. But as is too often the
case, the allurements of the water was
too much for the boys, so they all
laid aside their clothing and tried for
a plunge. The boys names were ST.
las and Morris Buchanan, Lawrence
Burt and Isaiah Harris. But short
while after they went into the water,
Lawrence Burt, II years Of age, went
beyond his depth and his comrades,
though they tried, were unable to res
cue him. The boys all lived in the
vicinity of Rosebloom They notified
their parents Immediately, and the
body of the unfortunate lad was
recovered in a few hours. His burial
was had the next day. The grief
stricken parents have the sympathy
of the public.

The best of US make mistakes and
the least we can do or ought to do is
to confess them and get right and
stay right but the Junior Senator
does not confess any but "glories in
his infamy," declaring he would not
change his record by so much as the
"dottlng of an OF the crossing Of
t." Il reckon Jeems put that in TO
show how sassy he still is) Some Of
his benighted followers believe he is
the biggest man in the world today
and that such men as Woodrow Will
son, John Sharp Williams, ct al, are
mere plgmies compared to him. Yes
they DO and the less able they are to
read and write the more loyal they
are to Jeems. He says in his mes
sage that he wants to be tried by his
record as it is written" I ruess
ne was joking when he said that
for his record would almost as surely
rum MN as the old man said when
called upon in a Methodist love feast
TO tell what the Lord had done for
MN raised his poor old rheumatic
Dody from his seat and said. 81 don't
know what to say Elder, for if the
LORD had anything to do with it he

with Jeems' record. If he is going
20 be tried by his record he is Just
about ruinated to start with.

wnat the Lord said about the Jews
once: MY people are peculiar peo-
rle," but | hope not. Some time ago
Senator Charlie Culberson of Texas
being III bad health and unable to
make strenuous campaign was op-
posed by former governor of the
state whose chief platform plank was
cusslng Wilson. Culberson was
known as loyal Wilson man. Re-
suit: Cuiberson reelected by $4,000
majority La Toilette backed a man
for Senator in Wisconsin running on
La Folletee platform and he wasn't
in it. Senator Robinson of Arkansas
asked by Wilson to stand for re-
election to the Senate was opposed by
stephen Brudige for twelve years in
Congress from that state. Robinson
carried the state by 10000. Tell me
that loyalty to the administration
don't pay-huh?
Pat Harrison has been as loyal to
Wilson and the administration as
Joshua of old was to his God. Harri-
son has no doubt differed with the
president some time but he recognized
that the president was the chosen
ruler of the people Of the United
States and saw no good in backing
and stalling refusing to pull. | have
no doubt that the president in his
own way will make known to his
friends and enemies too before the
August primary who he regards as
his friend and when he does listen for
the hit dog to howl. Strange none
of Vardaman's friends are expecting
Wilson to endorse him.
But let's quit. | am hot.

AJAX DEFIES THE LIGHTNING.

Perhaps none of your readers en-
Joyed more than this writer your last
number of The Sentinel and the most
enjoyable feature was the letter of
the gentleman of the jewish G erman
name and the editors answer therto.
Joseph Newburger defending Senator
Vardaman! The Senator might well
repeat the prayer of the fellow who
! finding himself somewhat similarly sit
uated prayed 80 Lord. save me from
my awkward friends," and added as
an after thought, 81 can take care of
my active enemies myself"
If Mr.. Newburger had lived at the
time of the betrayal and crucifxion
of the Savior no doubt but what he
could have put up just as able de-
fense for Judas IscariOt as he does for
Vardaman and had he been his lawyer
would have demanded his acquittal
at the hands of the jury and failing
in this would have expected to be and
perhaps would have been invited
to pronounce the eulogy at his
grave after the conscience of the vile
scoundrel had forced him to commit
suicide.
But why continue? The editor has
taken such good care of the jewish
German gentleman that it will be a
long time before he requires further
attention.
If the "Vardaman Central Cam
paign Committee Jackson, Miss, The
Issue Print" will print and circulate
the Newburger letter and the Senti-
nePs answer to the same l will under
take to furnish letter of recommen-
dation and commentator from Sen
ator Robert La Toilette for "cordially
and sincerely your friend James K

ior Senator no doubt stands high in
the estimation of the discredited sem
ior senator from Wisconsin. Both

very expressive French word camOu-

the old "chestnutty" stuff he has

pulous liar, vile slanderer, subsidized

of the old darky who, toiling and

WOMEN'S COMMITTEE OF

Since my former letter our Gre
NADIA County Women's Committee has
not been idle and County Chairman
Mrs. S. A. Morrison has made several
trips into the Rural Districts.
The work has been organized at
Oxberry with full corps Chairmen.
She held a meeting at Tatum and
organized. That community had a
most enthusiastic meeting, she ex-
planning thoroughly wom:n's work in
the war. Several men were present
and joined in the meeting with much
interest. Mrs. Phelan, Chairman
Child Welfare and the trained nurse,
Mrs. DantZler were fortunate enough
to meet the children and measure and
weigh them. The good work will be
kept up by the Local Chairman, Mrs.
Wiley Bailey. Mrs. Dantzler made a
short address on food for babies.
They were accompanied by our Home
Economics Demonstration Agent, who
contributed very much to the success
of the meeting.
The following Wednesday, 10th
inst, the same ladies accompanied
Miss Cowsert to HOlcomb, where a
representative crowd of ladies and
babies met them at the Methodist
church A most successful meeting
was had, where the latest bulletin
was read and the necessary informa-
ton was given to the various Chair
men of the Council of Defense and
the babies measured and weighed.
The branch organization at Holcomb
seems very much interested and are
ready for all forms of war work.
On Wednesday the 26th, meeting
of the Elliott Council was held.
Our County Chairman of Childs
Welfare met the babies AMI with DR..
Bays assistance quite pleasant
measuring and weighing party was
held.
On Friday following, Graysport
Council held meeting. The Pres
ident, Mrs. M. l. Willis, made an in
teresting talk and read some data
from Washington. Mrs. Anderson,
Local Chairman of Child Welfare
having received the cards and instruc-
ton, is rapidly registering the babies
and children under six years. Our
County Chairman at a visit the day
before impressed on her the necessity
of registering all the little ones in
the District. Our County Council is
quite heartened by the success of
these meetings and the Chairman i'm
plores every Local Council to hold
bi-wt'ekly meetings, community gath
erings and discuss mutual problems:
but above all things to rush the Child |
Welfare work.
The Publicity Committee Of each of
these is urgentlv renueSted To send
in reports of these meetings. We
would not have other Counties to be
thought more patriotic for certainly
there are no more patriotic women
than ours.

Editor Grenada Sentinel:-
Permit me to say through your
columns that | voted and worked to
elect Senator Vardaman. l am
against his reelection because we need
in both houses of Congress only 100
per cent loyal Americans.
Mr.. Vardaman said in his last
campaign for the Senate that he was
the servant of the people but we did
not know that he meant the German
people.
He said that he never betrayed a
trust but We did not know that he
meant the Shipping Trust.
Senator Vardaman and his Issue
would like to confuse the voters by
explanations that do not explain, but
the people Of Mississippi have their
eyes wide open and are true and loyal
and vast majority of them know
that every vote cast for the Senator
will be a direct slap in the face of
every Mississippi boy in France as
well as a thrust at the heart Of the
mothers, daughters and children over
here.
feel that if l voted for Senator
Vardaman again, would not buy a
War Stamp or Liberty Bond neither
would l contribute to any organi-
zatlon whose purpose was the winning
of the war. can not see how a man
who is honest with himself and is
consistent can contribute to winning
a war that believes, as Senator Var
daman said he did, is a-war brought
on by the rich who trade between
New York and London" and that
predatory wealth" forced President
Wilson to fight that they might get
richer
Senator Vardaman foorsook his
party and shamed his friends and
supporters until, now few of his
former friends and supporters are
with him. They are for our country
and state first in preference to any
man.
Very truly.

DR.. Weitzman has decided not to give
regular lectures or stated talks on

do not need this. and ignorant moth
