SUMMER TERM TUPELO PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.

The summer term of the Tupelo
public schools will open Monday,
June II, 1918, at the high school
building. All pupils desiring to make
up back work and those desiring to
do advanced work will have to re-
port to the Superintendent's Office
Monday at a. M, for the purpose
of registering and securing cards of
admission to the summer school. The
rate of tuition has not yet been
fixed, but will be the same as last
year unless notified otherwise Mon
day. Miss Fannie Ware will have
charge of the first six grades. The
teacher has not been secured for the
7th and 9Th grades of the high school.
We hope to have some one by Mon
day. The Superintendent will have
to pass on the eligibility of all pupils
before entering the summer school.
1t is sometimes necessary for pupils
to do some work in the summer as it
so frequently happens that sickness
and some unforeseen things come up
during the regular session. Our sum-
mer vacations are too long.

NOTICE TO ALL RED CROSS
WORKERS.

On orders received from Washing
ton. YOU are instructed to complete
and turn into Chapter Headquarters
all garments in your possession as
near June 18th as possible.
It will then be about July 1st be-
fore any new material will be issued.
Under the old plan each Chapter was
irving to- supply itself with the nee
essarv warns and cloth and in this
wav forced up the price on such ma
+erial as they could find. The gov
ernment now proposes to buy all ma
+erial for the Red Cross, and distfl-
b,+a same through the New Orleans
Supply Depot at cost to the govern
mont. and in this way save any un-
due profits.
It is necessary for each Auxiliary
To notify Mrs. G. M. Crook, Tupelo,
Miss. Chairman of Woman's work
for Lee County, of what material
thew will require and order will pe
nlaced for same through New Or
leans. -.
This enforced suspension of actlvl-
ties from June 18th to July lst does
not mean that enough material has
been supplied by the Red Cross, pu1
that it will take this long for the
sooverrment to systemitize the buy
ing and distribution of material. In
the lore run it will mean the saving
of much time among the loyal work
.ers all over the country.

THE CHAUTAUQUA
CLOSES TONIGHT

Tupelo has been turning out IN
full force at the Chautauqua, when
began Monday afternoon.
The extreme heat did not deter the
crowd from attending the afternoon
or evening services but the people
were there in throngs.
The program, Judging from the re-
marks overheard, is the best that the
Redpath people has ever presented
here. The personnel is Sbove the av-
erage of former Chautauquas and the
entertainments correspondingly bet
ter.
While it is impossible to go into
details the musical features were eX-
ceptionally good and a high order OF
talent was exhibited in the rendition
of the various selections. The lee
tures were all by men of recognized
ability and the subjects discussed
were appropriate with the times.
The prince of entertainers, Ralph
Bingham. returns to Tupelo after
twenty years. Those who remember
him then, recall him as one OF the
bovs who was as full of fun and
- rth as a water mellon is Of meat.
10 wears that have intervened have
y creased his rotundity and few
yrav hairs are mingled with his raven
locks. His power of fun making has
boon accentuated and his audience
is wholly at his mercy.
Mr.. Bingham is thoroughly patrl-
otto and believes that every one
sbould do his bit in whatever line MS
talent may lie in aiding our boys IN
the environments and "over there"
While not on the platform his time
is spent visiting the camps and max
ING fun for the boys.
Mr.. Bingham endeavors to I'M
press upon the young people that fun
making could be o. Ei} plane ana
that nothing low or vulgar should
ever be considered fun. His audience
was a most appreciative one.
Thursday afternoon rat notlc pa
geant, play by the local children, un-
the direction of Miss Gayle, was stag
ed with great success. The tots en-
tered into the spirit of the day and
their audience was most appreciatlve.
The program closes today

With corn above so cts. hogs eat
their heads off very quickly. The
hog that takes two or three months
to get on full feed never brings you

When you are ready to put your

and watch your shoats round out.
into fat hogs in nine motnhs hogs
going well over 200 pounds and as
high as 240 pounds. Figure the av-
erage feeding and you will see why
the 3. A. Thomas medicine is good
