Compliments Macon Singer.

At the convention of the State Fed
Grafton of Music Clubs of Mississippi,
held recently in Jackson, the singing of
Mrs. McMillin of Macon was highly
praised, as was thot of her sister, Mrs,
Grove of Hattiesburg, whose musical
compositions have created much favor
able comment in and out of the state
The following reference was made to
them in the proceedings:
Mrs. Grove was one of those taking
part on the program on Mississippi
night, when she played several of ter
own compositions, one of which won
the prize in the original composition
contest. This number was ut Shows" !"
and it was rendered by her sister, Mrs
Joe McMillin, of Macon and Hatties-
burg.
The Jackson News, in commenting
on Mississippi Night of the Federation
says in part: "Miss Anna Georges

a poet soul, we're beautifully inter-
pICLSu anu given roy mloo NlISIllld hlI-
chel and Mrs. Bonnie P'Pool's num-
bers, one of which is among the prize
compositions, were sung by her sister.
Mrs. Joe McMillin, of Macon, the ex'
quisite sympathy of the singer in her
work impressing the audience as deeply
as did the beauty of her voice"
As an encore, Mrs. McMilin gave

and adopted by the State Federation
of Music Clubs as its official song.
While in Jackson, Mrs. Grove and
Mrs. McMillin were the guests of Mrs.

The Boy ScOuts and the Liberty Loan

Had the D n and women of America
received the training in patriotic re-
spect and service which is being given
now to the boys and girls of our land,
our great nation would be awake,
would have been awake to the larger
and more wholesome duties of citizen
ship long before the tocsin of war
shocked it into martial activity for the
security of national life. Had we been
properly trained and had these patriotic
duties been duly emphasized to US we
would have known long before our
county went to war, just how and why
we should stand at attention when the
orchestra strikesup "The Star Spangled
Banner" just how and WHY we should
uncover our heads as a salute to the
"Stars and Stripes"
1t has been necessary to arouse in
our people the national sense which
seems since past wars to have been
neglected. but the boys and girls who
are growing up in this new atmosphere
created by the horrors and necessities
of war will make citizens with whom it
will be perfectly natural to walk their
way with martial tread. to salute the
national colors or the national air. We
are proud of the patriotic training and
opportunities of the boys and girls of
our country and of their fine response.
Upon my request, Prof. McMillin has
been kind enough, and cannot pay too
great a compliment to his patriotism,
to secure for me report of the work
done by the Boy Scouts of the county
during the Third Liberty Loan cam.
paign. The boys did not, could not,
begin work until the campaign was
almost over, but their work for this
brief time was little short of marvel
GUS. The field had been already thor
oughly covered by the sales committees
of the Liberty Loan organization, yet
by irresistible efforts the Boy Scouts
carried On their campaign, meeting
with fine response.
The following is their report:
Brooksville Troop
81 subscriptions. .............$ 4,700
Macon Troop
81 subscriptions .............. $500
In the name OF the Liberty Loan or
ganization | desire to thank the Boy
Scouts of the county for their splendid
and patriotic services. The whole
county, if it should speak. would hearth
ly endorse any words of appreciation
that might utter in recognition of the
fine work of these young Americans.
They cannot 60 to the trenches yet,
they are too young, but they can fight
their country's battles while yet at
home, are fighting them, and the enemy
shall feel their blows.
To the Boy Scouts. Of Noxobet
County I extend the thanks of the
Liberty Loan organization. Your work
is noble, your future great, your op-
portunity to serve our country is larger
than We at present may measure.
Most humbly,
E. NASH BROYLES,
County Chairman of the
Liberty Loan Organization.

Death Of w. F. Riddle

A telegram from the Old Soldiers
Home at Beauvoir, announcing the
death of Mr.. w. F. Riddle, better
known as Doc, was received Monday
by Mr.. Bob Farrar, whose wife is a
niece of the deceased. The telegram
simply stated that he had died and
would be buried that day at the Home.
Mr.. Riddle went to the Home last De-
cember and before going had spent
several months at the home of Mr..
Farrar west Of Macon, and while
there had severe attack of illness
and it was thought at the time he
would die. He was 78 years Of age,
and was a member of Company B, 35th
Mississippi Regiment. Doc" has
been resident of the county all his
life and since the war has been farm
ing west of Macon. renting land from
the late Judge Ames and after his
death from Mr.. Fisher Ames. After
the death of his wife few years ago
he had lived with his son, Willis Riddle
and other relatives. He was of
jovial, good natured disposition. and
was held in high regard by all who
knew him.

NOxubee County Farm Notes
Organization


County Demonstration work is most
effective when conducted in an organ
lied manner That is there are prob
ably 1,SO0 farmers in the county, and
for one man to reach them by indi-
yidual visits is physical impossibility
and at the same time difficult to ac-
complish any real gain. However, this
can be done with a proper organization
which we hope to develop soon as prac-
ticable.
Cow Peas vs.. Soy Beans
Some farmers are considering dis
carding cow peas and using soy beans.
This has a great many advantages.
Soy beans grown up right, make a
larger tonnage. and have a higher
feeding value. However, they need
incubation on most soils no doubt. In
oculated beans should have knots or
nodules on the roots.
If they do no not have these nodules
in abundance they are no more valua-
BILE as a soil restorative than nom
legume. That is, they would be obliged
to get all this nitrogen from the soil
and none from the air.
Growth Indications
1t may be noticed that on some high
soils the beans do not make large
growth the first year planted. A close
examination will show that there is an
occasional nodule. This incubation
will spread the second year and result
in the increased growth.
Method of Inoculation
The dirt glue method of inoculation
is simplest and best. By this method
beans to seed ten acres may be in
oculated in as many mirutes at no cost.
The same method may be used for
any other legume and requiring inocu
aton.
lnoculdfion Demonstration Saturday
An incubation demonstration will be
conducted at the County Agents office
at the Court House Saturday, May IS,
2 p. m. Although this is rather late
we invite your attendance.
To the Club Memb7rs
With the Home Demonstration Agent
we are planning a weeks camp and
school for the club boys and girls, You
will want to be present. This will be
held at the County High School prob
ably the first week in July.

RED CROSS NOTES
Mrs. Connie Owens Knitted for the Sol
disrs in 1861 and is Knitting for Our
Soldiers Today


The following was received at Red
Cross Headquarters for Mississippi
yesterday, and though it is part OF
the Publicity Work for the Macon
Chapter it will do quite as much good
in the Kinds County Chapter as in old
NoXubee. and is therefore borrowed
for these columns, says the Jackson
News:
The boy who gives his life as a sacri-
flee for you and me thousands of miles
across the sea is the hero of the war,
and to him the heart of every real
man and woman goes out in loving ap-
probation and admiration. But there
are heroes of this war who should not
be overlooked.
True heroines are the Red Cross
nursus who brave mined sea and a
war-wrecked land to minister to the
suffering heroes there; and the sisters,
wives and mothers of the boys who
have gone forth to give their blood for
Freedoms cause; and the dear old wo-
men VINO have brayed the Civil war
with its privations, danger and sacri-
fees and the cruel Reconstruction days
that followed-women who have been
robbed by time of their bodily vigor
and activity, but whose hearts have
not been robbed of that loyalty and
love and devotion that make them
heroines of two great wars.
Among the dearest of these old ladies'
is our own Mrs Connie Owen, whose fa-
ding eyesight and seventy-seyen years
have not prevented her from becoming
one of the most useful members of the
Macon Chapter of the American Red
Cross. Just as fast as she can get the,
wool she knits SOCKS for our boys
''over there" Day in and day out her
skillfui fingers ply the knitting
needles. The same kind patient
hands that are toiing to bless our boys
today worked in the sixties for the
boys that wore the gray, loyal then to
what they thought was right, loyal to-
day for what they know is Gods own
cause.
Besides teaching others how to knit,
Mrs. Owen has made two pairs of nit
tens, four wash rags and fifty pairs of
socks. Figuring the minimum time
necessary for knitting regulation
sock, Mrs. Owen since last August has
given at least sixty days of twelve
hours day for her country; or org
fifth of her HE ior tins period
Just think of it, two whole months
of straight time! Who can excel this
record? What lesson to strong,
able-bodied man! What an inspiration
to us all!
Remember Mrs. Owen when you de-
eide to make your contribution to the
coming War Fund for the Red Cross,
and give until your heart says stop.

Dearest God-Mother:
Just short letter while have few
minutes off. Wish | had couple OF
hours then I'd write you long, long
letter.
This is certainly beautiful country
over here. Old castles with ivy GOV.
cred walls, and little white stone
houses and green grass everywhere
Just like spring back home,
These old castles are what interests
me. They are very dignified and pic,
turesque looking places.
Lots of them in ruins, but still in
teresting and enchanting, though they
are only mass of fallen stone, over.
grown with ivy. When you look at
these you realize that you are really in
Europe.
And when you enter one of these
old places you begin to have day dreams.
You see the gallant knights of Old
come galloping in full armor and chal-
lenge you to a duel with lance and
sword.
But all these day dreams and other
things can not keep you from thinking
Of the states ana homc. And day
over here will convince you that the
Good Old U. S. A. is the best old
country in the world. Just to land
anywhere in it would seem like home

pool and they told me some wonderful
stories about tn. war and its horrors.
I'd like to get to handle a few

easy and the best grub I've ever
struck yet in the navy. "Believe me"
