were piled in the pastors home, for
which he and his family are duly
thankful.

INCENDfARY FIRE
AT PINE VALLEY
Barn and Contents, 800 Bushels
Corn, Team of Mules and
Other Property Burned Sum
day Night For Jim Dickey-
Bloodhounds Put on Trail.

Mr. Jim Dickey, an honest, hard
working farmer living about a mile
north of Pine Valley, lost his barn
with contents of hay, harness, ETC., a
team of good work mules, crib con-
tanning 800 bushels Of corn and other
property, by fire some time during
last Sunday night.
Mr. Dickey believing the FIRE to be
of incendiary origin had the officers
send for blood hounds in hopes of
running the firebug down. The dogs
came Monday and were taken to the
scene of the burning, but owing to
the fact that many people had visited
the fire and walked all over the
ground, Mr.. Cant, owner of the
hounds thought it not worth while
to attempt to start the dogs.
This makes the third fire in the
Pine Valley vicinity within a few
weeks, all of them said to have been
of incendiary origin. What motive
prompts the firebug to burn the farm
ers' property, is a mystery and no one
knows the identity of the fellow do
ing the burning. The farmers are
all getting aroused in the neighbor-
hood, and every effort will be made
to capture the guilty party if possible.

WATER VALLEY BOY TELLS
OF FRENCH ENGINEERS

UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI,
March 14.-Capt. A. B. Boyd of Com
pany C, Sixth Engineers, recently
returned from France, addressed the
"Ole Miss" engineers Thursday nigat.
He told of the methods of construc-
ton used by the French engineers.
He stressed the fact that what the
French did they went at it to see how
well they could construct instead of
how much they could make out Of it.
Capt. Boyd graduated from the
engineering department Of the Uni
versity of Mississippi with the class
of 1910. For a whilc he was with
the city engineering department at
Clarksdale, Miss. From there he
went to California, where he was a
successful civil engineer, and at the
outbreak of the war was at Los
Angeles. He was commissioned a
first lieutenant at Fort Leavenworth
in 1917, sailed for France in the early
part Of 1918 and saw much service
in the front line trenches with the
Sixth Engineers. His home is Water
Valley, Mas.

The grand jury in circuit court at
Sumner, which adjourned last week
returned fifty-seven indictments
many of which were against promi-
nent merchants for retailing and sell
ing merchandise on Sunday. The
grand jury in its report stated that
owing to the business of the county
being transacted at both Sumner and
Charleston, it was impracticable tc
investigate the financial condition OF
the county, but recommended that 3
certified public accountant be en-
ployed to make such audit. We dis
agree with the distinguished gentle
man as to the necessity of this, re.
calling to mind that it has only beer
about two years since complete au
dit was made of the entire county
and that the county auditor is paid tc
render this service for both districts
and at any time a grand jury either
at Charleston or Sumner should de-
sire to make an investigation, il
would be an easy matter to have the
county auditor file such data or re
ports as might be necessary to make
. thorough examination.--Charlesto

AIRPLANE WITHOUT
PILOT LANDS WHERE
1T WAS DIRECTED

FORT WORTH, Tex, Mar. a.
Under automatic control, an aircraft
capable of carrying heavy load and
without any human being aboard to
guide it, has made trip of more
than a hundred miles and landed
within a very short distance of the
point it was sent to reach.
Invention of the automatic guide
which has been kept secret until now,
was mentioned by Newton ID. Baker,
Secretary of War, in speech here
today, while he and General Peyton
G. March, chief of staff of the army
were in Fort Worth to inspect Fort
Bowie. Secretary Baker referred tc
the invention to impress on his hear
ers the horrors of future wars if
there is to be no league of nations.
The invention was made in Ameri-
ca, according to Mr.. Baker. In the
test, as described by Mr.. Baker, an
airplane was first sent out under
control of a pilot without making a
landing, returning to its point of
origin after locating the distant OBJ
jectives. Then another airplane was
sent out under automatic control set
to land at the designaed point and ii
effeced the landing 50 close, said Mr.
Baker that had it been shell ii
would have been considered good
shot.
Secretary Baker did not explain
the exact nature of the invention,
but he made it clear that the War
Department considers it one of the
most wonderful pieces of destructive
mechanism ever contrived.

PROMINENT WATER VALLEY
MERCHANT SURROUNDED,
SOAKED AND SCARED

According to the local paper Mr..
Tom Addington a prominent Main
street gNcer had quite an experience
at Coffeeville during the recent
storm.
Following is an account of Mr..
Addington's adventure as published
in the current issue Of the Courier
''Mr. Tom Addington, one of
Water Valleys most prominent citi-
zens, spent Monday in Coffeeville en-
route home from Grenada Mr..
Addington left Grenada at IL o'clock
Sunday in his car for Water Valley.
and everything went smooth and easy
until he passed Bryant's Spur in
Turkey Creek bottom, where he came
in contact with a mud hole that prov
ed better man than his car. How
ever, after considerable delay he Sc
cured the services of negro and
team and rescued his car from the
mud hole. But alas, he found that
he had broken axle, and while try
ing to get the car in repair the rain
came, and thinking that perhaps it
was a passing shower, he got in the
car to wait, but the rain continued,
dark came on, and still the rain con-
tinued. At about midnight Mr.,
Addington found that the water had
risen and was up to the seat of his
car; so crawling upon top of the seat
with his feet hanging in the water he
spent the lonely hours of the Sab
bath night, with only the croaking of
frogs and the who-who of the owl
for company.
"When the shades of night had
passed and new day had dawned
he found that like Robinson Crusoe
of old, he was surrounded by water,
with no one in sight or hearing. How
ever, up in the day Mr.. Ben Moore,
who lives near by heard of his pre-
dicament and sent some negroes out
in a boat and landed him safely
again on dry land.'r
