WHAT IS THERE IN A
HAND SHAKE?

What is the use of worrying
the farmer when he is busy and
out Of humor; he wants all his
time these days when the grass
is covering everything. Why
worry him then with politics?
You may depend upon it he will
look over the line of candidates
carefully and then study the poll
ltical situation weighing caref-
ully the merits of each candi-
date. On election day. he will
have his men picked out and all
the shakes OF the hand or all the
friendships in the world will not
change him, because the farmer
is a business man. He will vote
for progress and economy, which
means that he will pick out the
practical and long headed man
for each office and vote for HIM
The farmer knows with such men
in office, his taxes will be lessen
ed. Good roads and good schools
which means increased populat-
ion and increased land value will
follow. Are not these reasons
enough why you should vote for
L. S. Russell for county surveyor.
He is practical experienced and
competent engineer and Surveyor.
Talk it over with your friends.

MEMORIAL:

Private Irwin Robinson was
born in Neshoba county, Mississ-
ippi April 16 1898. Volunteered
in the service of the U. S. A. in
June 1917. Sailed oversee June
1918. Died from wounds receiv
ed in action October 10 1918.
This young man known by the
writer from earlies infancy by
the life has lead has proclaimed
himself a noble young man
though he was never united with
any church he believed in the
Father-hood of God and the bro !
therhood of man. This he dem
onstrated by the life he lived and
the cause for which he died so
freely and his saying that by
Gods help he was determined to
meet his mother in better
world.
This testimony, with the death
he died should be consolation
to all his relatives. "Greater
Hove hath no man than this, that
a man lay down his life for his
friends" and Irwin has done this.
He has sacrificed his young life
to the merciiess God of war that
Democracy, Liberty and Peace
might forever reign over a reuni-
ted world. He has done his part
in the struggle of the human soul
to do true noble deeds of service
deeds that lift the world from its
selfishness and grife to peace and
brotherhood. And his memory
should be honored as much as
those men whose names are on
every tongue and who are Landed
to the skys for bravery. Though
an humble private, Irwin has
done more than some of the high
est officers for he has given his
life to the cause; what more can
any one des
Neshoba county has lost one of
her noblest young men in giving
Irwin up but it is not for US to
question Gods way of doing
things and IRWIN has left us the
noble lesson of self sacrifice and
we should ever keep his memory
green in our hearts and thank
God that such young men are
permitted to remain on earth for
even this short while and set this
glorious example Tor us to follow
/ How sad it is 10 give him up
yet look {; what a blessing awaits
one who lays down his life that
others may have freedom.
The noblest death q man can
die is on the alter of sacrifice for
his fellow man.
The bitter thought that he died
umong strangers in a foreign
land is sweetened by the thought
that there is one; the great com
forter who can reach the death
bed of her children no matter
where they are destined to fall
and give them the sweet comfort
and peace that Can come from no
other source.
He has passed over into the
great beyond to bask in the light
OF Savior's love noble young
soldier of the cross.
The nutfled drum's sad roll
has beat,
The soldiers last tattoo;
No more on life's parade shall
meet.
That brave and fallen few
On fame eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory parade with solemn
sound,
The bivouac of the dead.

The one here has been splen-

and we have heard no adverse

with a reputation for inspiring
leadership, an apostle, of sun

ply of lille to the promotion of
the community spirit.
The Metropolitan concert com.
pany gave concert afternoon of

ROADS TO Be
BULLETTNED
Evening Caledonian-Recor
to Carry New Bulletins
of Weather Bureau

A weekly Typographical bulletin,
stating the exact conditions of the
New England highways for the auto
traveller, whether in his limousine or
on business truck, Is the last word
in aiding the automobilist, The
United States Weather Bureau is
making plans for this unique and up
to-date service and the Evening Cal
edonian Record will secure this SER
vice for its readers,
These bulletins which will be is
sued within a few weeks, will le
spread broadcast throughout the
New England states, and an autoist
will know how the weather affects
the different roads he wishes to take.
This service will also save several
hundred phone calls each week to the
Weather Bureau by autoists asking if
a storm is brewing over the White
Mountains or Adirondacks, or where
ever they were planning for a trip.
Sunday autoists, especially will ben
eft by this novel bulletin.
The COR ordination of the autoist
and the weather man is something
new in auto annals. Two hundred
weather observers in New England
will report weekly to the central hu-
reau in the Postofiice Building IN
Boston the conditions of the 70 's
near their observatory. They will al
so issue predictions Of road condi-
tons for future days.
To systematic New England for
the autoist has been a difficult pro-
ject, but that it will be successful is
already assured. A circular letter,
asking the opinion of hotel owners
and automobile men in all parts of
the New England states has brought
favorable answers. Of the seventy
five letters dispatched by the wealth
er bureau, practically every one has
brought reply in favor of the idea.
The agitation to bring the Weather
Bureau to the autoists aid was start
etd by the Automobile Legal Asso-
citation, seconded by the Hotel Mems
Association of New England. Auto
lists in the future will use their car
more often in the winter and spring
is the prediction.

SHORTAGE
IN AUTO
OUTPUT
Buick and Ford Companies
Make Vast Extensions to
Meet Big Demand

That there will be shortage Of
motor cars in this country for the
next year or so is the opinion of the
captains Of the motor industry.
This opinion is pretty general in
spite Of the fact that all operative
plants are planning on wonderfully
increased production, while several
plants under organization when
completed will be capable of turning
out at least quarter of million
motor cars during the next year.
Millions are being invested in new
plants and equipment, and the pres
ent investment is going to fall in sig
nifcance when the figures demanded
by the expansion already scheduled
become known.
The demand for motor cars was
never greater in the history of the
motor industry, and it will continue
for at least year-perhaps twice
that length Of time-and the manu-
facturers contend that the present
shortage will amount to 100000.
1t is hoped by rushing production
during the remainder of the year that
approximately one-half of this short
age will be secured, but in view O.
present labor conditions this is most
problematical. There is no question
but that the production is going to
fall short of the demand and the
industry is going to be forced to the
utmost.
Plans for increased production arc
pretty general.
The General Motors has made adj
dition to the Buick plant which will
permit of greatly increased produc-
ton.
Ford anticipates a wonderful in
crease both at his Detroit and the
River Rouge plant.
