METHoDIsTs HAVE A BIG JOB

With five years of careful labor
before them, working out the huge
plans for the Missionary Centennial
which calls for the expenditure Of
more than 100000, Methodist
preachers have job that will require
not only patience but careful train
ing. AS business proposition there
has been brought to the United States
and located at Columbus, Ohio, a
huge missionary exposition. On the
immense site there has been con-
structed in mineature the life OF
every nationality and the industry
of every cline.
To Columbus, Ohio, between June
20 and July IA, will go hundreds Of
thousands of people, and it is expect
ed that practically every Methodist
preacher in Louisiana will make the
trip and there study the missionary
needs of the world at first hand.
There ne will see China as the Chi
nese live in their native heath and
in native attire; there will be Africa
lust like it is in the jungles, and the
iungles will be there; there will be
the tenement section of the great
CITY with it's crowded streets and
even with its attendant filth and
utter misery; and there will be the
mill town, the mountain town and
the log cabin of the piney woods. In
this way a preacher in a week will
be able to know more of the mission
ary needs Of the world than he could
learn from books in ten years.

COLORED MAN DROWNED.

Monday Marshal Philip Smith of
Vaudeville took charge Of colored
man who seemed demented and lock-
ed him up for safe keeping. After
wards the man seemed to have re-
covered and it was determined to
send him to his home in Barnes,
Miss. Just as the train pulled in, he
threw off his coat and ran. He was
not recaptured, but Wednesday his
body was found floating in Bayou
Castaign. Previously the man had
drawn $3.50 from the bank and col
1ected $40 due him by the Poitevent
& Favre Lumber Co., This money
was not found on his body. It was
also learned that he had $3.50 in the
savings deposit of Gulfport bank
and that he owned furnished home
in Barnes, Miss, for which he was
receiving rent. His name was q. j.
Mitchell. His body was sent home
to his sister.
Coroner Bulloch says the coroner's
Jury found that he came to his death
by drowning. There were no marks
of violence or anything to show that
he had been dealt foully with. The
papers in his trunk showed him to
be an ordained minister.

cussion it was carried.
This session of the board having
been continuation of the meeting

had secured the adoption of three
day fair to prevent the ladies having
too much work, as they have had in
former four-day fairs, and this OBJ
jectionable feature having been over
come by the decision to have two
groups of ladies, Mr.. Haller, at the
latter session, withdrew his motion

interest of every member present,

of the fair and the masses of people
of the parish at large, to have four
day fair ending Sunday, October 10.
A report and recommendation by
Dr. Maybe, chairman of ways and
means committee, was received and
adopted, to the effect that the same

CAPTAIN GIDDINGS RECUPERAT-
ING IN COVINGTON.

Captain Beverly Giddings, a grad
uate of Oxford and one OF the dis
tinguished airmen of England, regis
tered at the Southern Hotel last Fri
day. He is here in search OF health
and recuperation from the effects Of
very severe wounds received in the
performance of his duty as COM
mander of an English aviation corps.
Captain Giddings is man of high
attainments, and though but Il years
of age has been decorated four times
for bravery He is a native of Bev-
erly, Yorkshire. The seriousness Of
his wounds made a change of eli
mate and scene advisable and ply
sicians recommended Louisiana as
place whose climate would be bene-
fetal. When he reached Louisiana,
he was advised to come to Covington.
He will remain here till July. He
was called to New Orleans by his
government to inspect airplanes to be
shipped to England via Buffalo, after
which he will be the guest of DR.. Toll
son during his stay here.
Captain Giddings does not like to
Idik Ol uiIuSCll, Dul Inv -
record he has made as master OF the
air gives interest to his general con-
versation. He appreciates the Won
derful bravery Of Hawker in attempt
ing to give the transatlantic record
to England, but thinks some single
man should have undertaken the JOB.
In speaking Of the difficulties of avia-
ton, Captain Giddings stated that
even the bravest flyers have times
when their nerves go back on them
and make it unsafe for a flight.
Among the flyers this condition is
known as wind-up; so when flyer
is "wind-up" there is nothing doing
in dangerous feats or chasing the
Hun. Getting on top or just under
meath the tail of the Hun flying ma
chine, the points where he is yulner-
able, takes a coll head and undis
turbed nerves Otherwise the Hun
is apt to do to you what you are try
ing to do torhim.
Captain Giddings has younger
brother who has gained even greater
distinction than the Captain. This
boy has also received serious wounds.

Says Rice Is Established
On Best Basis of All
Grown Products.
READY MARKET FOR
IRRIGATED LAND
Clearing is the Biggest Prob
lem in Getting Land
Ready.

Mr.. Jas. J. Lewis was present at
the Rice Growers meeting at the
courthouse last Saturday and gave
very interesting talk on rice growing.
He said that rice was on the most
substantial basis that it had been in
history. That if we had lands and
irrigating facilities completed they
could be sold Immediately, but that it
was too late to put in the machinery
for mill this season and that there
was not enough land that could be
planted this season that would sup
port mill. That rice gorwing was
one of the simplest forms of agricul-
ture and that there was more active
competition in the purchase of rough
rich than in any other product. That
mill to handle $4,000 barrels would
cost about 100000. He did not,
however, believe it was necessary to
put up mill in order to handle rice
successfully. That agents would come
here and buy rice and pay the same
price that they would at the point
of delivery.
Mr.. Lewis said that as rice did not
deteriorate through storage, he
thought warehouses could be built
to take care of what was grown here
until it was advantageous to sell.
That rice was std " samples p oceC
on the table and that oids were
placed in hat AMI then tabulated.
That every man IL the district who
had rice for sale vas notified tf :ue
amount of rice to De soil
Mr.. Lewis inquired as t. the cn,t
Of clearing lands per acre and was
TOLD that it was about S2a per acre.
He said that he would buy ten thou
sand acres of land at $40 per acre,
if it was ready to plant. In answer
to a question, Mr.. Lewis said that
this land did not necessarily have to
be in one piece. Reasonably large
tracts would do, even if differently
situated.
This was an off hand bid of Mr..
Lewis for land. The probability is
that he would pay much more for
such land 1t is certain that high
er price could be obtained.
The matter is still under investi-
cation and there is little doubt that
the rice industry will be large one
in St. Tammany parish before long.
The biggest problem is the clearing
of the land, and there are several
modes of doing this now under con-
sideration. Irrigation will then be
easily accomplished and the lands
will have a ready sale and good
value.

THE CHORAL SOCIETy.

Mr.. Karl Kohnke and Miss Loretta
Schwartz are organizing a choral
club. This should be very popular
movement. as there are quite a num-
Der of Covingtonians who have musi-
cal training and who should be able
to make such a society success.
These clubs have been organized IN
other towns and many of them are
now doing fine work. Covington
should be able to match most of them
in talent and both Mr.. Kohnke and
Miss Schwartz should make capa BILE
instructors. 1t is to be hoped that
the undertaking will receive the sup
port due and that Covington will
soon be able to give musical reeitals
that will please the public and add
to our fund of entertainment.

INJURED WHILE WALKING THE
STREET.

Rosalie Washington, daughter Of
Eli Washington, colored, was injur-
ed by the falling of a cross arm on a
telegraph pole on Columbia street,
Thursday morning. Rosa is 3 years
of age. She suffered a depressed
fracture of the right parietal bone of
the head and a confusion of the
shoulder. The force of the blow also
Jared her teeth loose, SO that in her
nervous state she pulled one of them
out and might have pulled all had
she not been told to let them re-
main as they would tighten up again.
She was sent to New Orleans by DR.
Bulloch, where she was placed in the
hospital. She is dangerously hurt.

CHILD DIES FROM EATING PILLS.

DR.. Bulloch reports the death Of
little Sadie Erwin, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs Emile Erwin, of Ramsay,
Friday. The child was l year, 8
months, l day of age, and death fol-
lowed convulsions due to the eating
of some pills prescribed for mala-
rial patient and which contained
strychnine.
This incident shows how import
ant it is that all medicine bottle and
packages should be kept out of reach
of little children. Medicines that a
grown person may take with benefit
may prove fatal to a child. This
warning, if needed, may often pre-
vent death
