nearly twice the accumulated
wealth Of Texas which has even
larger population. Wisconsin
has two thirds as many people
and an equal amount Of wealth;
California had almost twice as
much as Texas. This is due TO
the fact that these three states
have spent three times as much
per child as Texas has spent for
education.
These figures ought to be stow
ed away in our minds ana
thought over every now and then.
Mississippi's children are her
greatest resource. They are en-
titled to development. This year
let all the voters see to it that
candidates express themselves on
education; and then elect those
forward looking men to power
who realize the Importance OF ed
ucation and will see to it that
our schools are made better by
larger appropriations for their
support or by taxation. The men
we need in Office are the ones who
will give children an equal show
with good roads and cattle. Just
suppose we had spent as much
money on schools as we have on
roads and tick eradication, where
would we be? Certainly not. so
near foot in the education class
as Rankin stands now. We need
better roads! We need better
cattle! But most of all we need
better trained teachers and bet
ter schools. We can never get
these with out the expenditure OF
money along with community in
terest. Let Rankin wake up!

LADIES'! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR.
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know |.

The use of Sage and Sulphur
for restoring faded, gray hair. to
it's natural color dates back to
grandmother's time. She used it
to keep her hair beautifully dark,
glossy and attractive. Whenever
her hair took on that dull, faded
or streaked appearance, this sim
pie mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy
and out of date. Nowadays, by
asking at any drug store for a
bottle of 'Wyeth's Sage and sui
phur Compound" you will get
this famous old preparation, i'm
proved by the addition of other
ingredients, which can be Deepen
ded upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown drug
gist says it darkens the hair SO
naturally and evenly that nobody
can tell it has been applied. You
simply dampen sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one
strand at time. By morning
the gray hair disappears, and af-
teranother application or two, it
becomes beautifully dark and
glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound is a delightful toilet
requisite for those who desire a
more youthful appearance. 1t is
not intended for the cure mitiga-
ton or prevention of disease.

should embark Tor somewhere. !
On the way to the ocean liner, we
possed under the World famous
Brooklyon Bridge. and from the
water front recognized many Of
New York City's wonderful build
ings.
At 4:3O in the afternoon we
boarded the White Star Liner,
Cedric" an Englih ship which
was to take us across. We mail
ed our cards which were to an
nounce our safe arrival oversee,
and we were off-for we knew not
where.
When we waved farewell to the
Statue Of Liberty in New York
Harbor, we knew not when we
should, IL ever, see it again.
The ship on which we went
over was one of the swiftest Of
the White Star Liners, having on
more than one occasion steamed
out from port unconvoyed, and
had literally outrun the subma-
rines, and made the trip safely.
If you have never seen an ocean
steamer, you may get some idea
of it's size from this. When you
walked around the deck to the
point where you started, the dis
lance travelled was a little over a
quarter Of a mile. There were
seven sleeping decks. Besides the
$500 soldiers and 800 Of the Crew,
the ship carried, we were told,
$500 bales Of cotton. $4,000, 900. 90
worth Of copper, and immense
quantities of fresh meat and sup
plies for the men oversee.
Of course it did not add to our
comfort when we learned that
ours was a Marked" ship, and
that a special reward was offered
to the submarine crew which
should get our ship.
We were in the center of a fleet
of twelve troop ships, and battle
ship led the way. Of course we
felt more secure on account Of
our position.
We travled north off the Coast
of the u. S. and soon encountered
the Labrador Current, and sea-
sickness, influenza, and pneu-
monia combined began to take
toll from our men.
Off the Coast Of Newfoundland
we turned east. We encountered
storm which dashed waves up
on the deck forty feet above, but
the good old ship ploughed on.
The English cooking and food
made. US dissatisfied with the
crew in general, and cooks in
particular. Oatmeal without milk
or sugar, sugarless coffee, sau-
sages stuffed with Substitutes"
bean soup without beans, no
bread whatever for dinner, that
miserable mutton cooked English
style,all aided to diminish the
joys Of the way.
We had travelled FIVE days and
nothing unsual happened. On the
sixth day we received wireless
that large submarine had been
slghted,rand was directly on our
route, Now you can imagine how

Mickey Coming,

Mickey is coming to the Opera
House on Monday, May 9Th, for an
engagement of days to delight the
fans and show them the best comedy
since TITLES Punctured Romances. y
There is nothing upon the screen OF
the speaking stage today comparable
with it. This delightful tomboy hero
inc of Mack Sennett's masterpiece will
haunt your memory when all the
otEer features of the season have
passed and are forgotten. It has
thrills, romance, heart interest and
youthful charm chucked into it in
wholesale quantities and one would be
a crouch indeed who did not feel the
impulse of its appeal.
