Now that the political storm il
over. let country and city folks get
busy and see what will happen next.
1t seems to me that the next i'm
poftant thing to go after is the Ag-
ricultural High School which will
mean much to the boys and girls in
aiding them for usefulness and citi-
zenship. AS far as my own are con-
cerned they have gone out to fight
their own battles without such helps.
Nevertheless. / am interested in the
boys and girls of our country. l
know they are the ones that will
keep the camp fires burning"
when / am gone. The location of
the Agricultural High School is the
first important question to settle.
All individual interests should be
set aside The public highways
leading to and from, should be care
fully considered. l would suggest
the Kirkpatrick Cross roads as a
suitable place. This is on the
main road leading from Aberdeen
to Amory, and on the old Cotton
Gin road that our forefathers trav-
eled away back in antebellum days.
Yon say that's too far from town.
OF course. it is few minutes walk
from Amory and Becker. 1t would
be a place where they could breathe
pure fresh air and would take them
away from the evil influences that
would surround them in a city or
town. have just interviewed Mr..
and Mrs. kirkpatrick. They in
formed me that they have land for
sale at this place, No trouble to
get oyerhowing we'll on this prop
erty. Let everybody get busy and
locate the school somewhere in old
Monroe.
Respectfully.

being among the most enterpising
spirits of our town and was identi-
fed with the things that elevate So
cially. morally and relieiously. He
was a member of the Methodist
Episcopal church and was consist
ent and devout in promoting all the
work of the church.
As a friend. he was loyal and
true to the ties that bind in friend
ship; as father and husband he
was the peer of any in that field Of
obligation and affection. The COM

his children have sustained a great
loss in the death OF this good citi-
zen. but upon the wife and children
the loss falls heaviest. For these
