Inc little brooks go singing along
their shining way;
The rivers speak in deeper tones:
like beat of muffled drum.
The ocean surges thunder, and toss
their mighty spray,
But the mountains stand immova-
ble-immovable and dumb.
The trees have whispered secrets for
those who, listening, pass;
There's language of the flowers for
all who patient seek;
Myriads of tiny voices sound in tba
waving grass,
But the mountains stand in silence
they may not, cannot speak.
All nature seeks expression in tones
that rise and swell,
So sings the joyous human, 50
growls the angry brute,
The wedding chimes at noontide, the
evening passing bell,
But n mountains stand and listen
their peaks and valleys mute.
Only to those who love them the
mountains message send
those who have left their shelter.

The waste and folly of leaving cot
ton out in the weather have also been
illustrated in ten thousand cases this
season. Just for example, take the
case of a farmer whose experience
we have just heard of. He left five
bales of cotton out in the weather
last fall, and when he went to sell it
recently, 400 pounds had to be picked
off as rotten cotton and sold for ten
cents a pound. In other words, he

should at once look into the question
of better warehousing facilities. The

The Mississippi Welfare League, even in its infancy-and it
IS now scarcely six months old--has already rendered a great service
to the people of Mississippi and is destined to render far greater ser
nee.
1t aims to accomplish for Mississippi what every good man and
every good woman Graves, more happiness and contentment, morepTo-
3uctiveness and greatly improved educational facilities so that the
future man and woman of the State may be equipped for the trying
problems of the age.
Many Counties of the State will have eight AMI instead OF four
months school term the next session, and n small amount OF credlt
for this accomplishment is due the Welfare League and ITS jealous
and efficient secretary. -,
The League stands for better relations between the whites and
the blacks, a condition highly desirable for the future, business ana
general economic welfare of our State. 1t has stopped the circulation
Of harmful literature among the negroes and substituted good itera
ture. All the work of the League along this line has a tendency 10
4eep the good negroes here where Nature intended that they stay.
It is the friend o fevery worthy enterprise of our State and
realizes that n satisfactory and stable growth of our agricultural
and manufacturing enterprises can be anticipated unless there are
satisfied labor conditions. Our growth along all lines must go hand
;n-hand with a proper realization of our duties as citizens and must be
in accord with the teachings of Him who forgot Himself and suffer

the loyal citizens of our State, who will join hands in the movement

ical principle and a very present help

Of all human agency and in some way
unable to fulfill himself except through
the striving of men for goodness-that
idea is typical OF an attitude to the
world which can defy logic without
sinking into mysticism. and can insist
on the application Of abstract prin-
cipies in human life without making
