His place in the organiza ton is secure and

embracing the counties OF Iaio-
busha and Grenada:

Yielding to the solicitations OF a
number of my friends, and person
al desire for an endorsement of my
efforts to serve you during the term
four years ago, it being the usage of
the Democratic Party to so honor a
worthy servant, | am confidently ask
ing that you give me your hearty
support in the August primary, to
the end that l may be triumphantly
nominated as your representative IN
the next Senate.
/ promise, if elected, to use my
best endeavOrs to serve you, to give
you my whole time as becomes a
public servant, as / did before. l
think the Journals will bear me out
in the claim that / answered to my
name at roll call oftener, and cast
more votes than any other member OF
the Senate during my incumbency.

they were unintentional.

RSON-DAVISHICHWAYME MEET
President Thomas Called Meeting Get Ready for Govern
ment Cooperation-Other Places Still Scrambing to
Get On Line-Crenada Complacent

The Jefferson Davis Highway AS
sociation met Tuesday in Grenada
pursuant to a call of President j. T.
Thomas. Representatives were ON
hand from the Counties of Marshall,
Lafayette, Yalobusha, Grenada,
Montgomery and Holmes.
A number of reports were made as
to the progress of the work in the
several counties to be traversed by
the highway as mapped out. In
every county there has BEEN most
satisfactory work, if one is to judge
by the enthusiastic and earnest re-
ports. Undoubtedly the road spirit
is obsessing everybody in these coun-
ties and nothing is going to be left
undone to meet all the government
requirements.
These men say that their counties
have put their hands to the plow to
build the Jefferson Davis Highway as
a monument which their children can
point to with pride and as a memorial
to the dedication of the lives and the
efforts of this generation to the well
fare of the next.
The meeting indicated that it was
not unmindful of the desire Of others
to deal the cards under the table and
if possible yet divert the road from
its first mapped out lines.
Felicitation was expressed over the
fact that the federal government was
going to use funds for the purpose of
making a truck road from Memphis
straight down the line to Grenada and
thence southwark to New Orleans.
Grenada has from the very inciliSacy
of the jefferson Davis Highway dis
cussion felt that the line must touch
here regardless of where it leads from
here, and there has been just vein
of amusement felt at this place over
the seeming scramble of other points
to get on the line.

a GOOD TIME TO BUILD ROADS.

On another page a Kentucky friend
suggests that this is a good time for
this country to go at the work of
road building in good earnest. The
suggestion is thoroughly sound one.
The war showed us as never before
the need of good roads, even while it
checked the building of them. The
work is such as to appeal to many
thousands of the sturdy young men
who are even now pouring home from
Europe in a steady stream. Being
under the direction of the states and
the national government, the work
can be speeded up or slowed down so
as to absorb surplus labor or to re-
lease labor needed elsewhere, as the
case may be- Above all, it is work
that will return big dividends on it's
cost from the very time it is begun.
1t is the thing to do, if not just on the
plan our correspondent outlines, on
the plans already worked out for the
cooperation of nation, state and COM
munity.
Illinois voted a $60,OO0,OOO bond
issue for roads at the last election.
Pennsylvania adopted a constitution
al amendment that opens the way for
a $5O.OOO,OOO road expenditure. 1t
is a good time for other states and
for counties in other states to follow
the example set. =,

Mr.. J. w. BROWN ANNOUNCES
FOR STATE SENATOR.

Mr. j, w. Brown of Coffeeville,
authorizes The Sentinel to place his
name before the people of this sem
atorial district, composed of this and
Yalobusha counties. Mr.. Brown has
lived in an adjoining county to this
one for years, indeed nearly his
whole life time, and has led the life
of the quiet, unostentiOus, upright,
law-abiding citizen. He has met the
duties of citizenship according to the
best lights before him, and has shirk-
ed no duty that he regarded as i'm
perative. His sleeveless arm bears
testimony to his service in the cause
of the Confederacy, hence it may be
assumed that a man of his mature
years and of his long experience will
at least be conservative and painstak-
ing in all he does.
Mr.. Brown was member of the
State Senate from 1911 to 1916,
which service should stand him well
in hand should he again be chosen.
In view of the fact that custom re-
quires the two counties to alternate
in furnishing the senator, this is Yal-
obusha county's time. hence she will
furnish all the candidates.

CEMETERY ASSOCIATION

Ces that work began March 3rd some
days earlier than usual, and will con-
tinue seven month if the funds hold
ouf We had generous help last year
from the Masons else we would have
been embarrassed by lack of means.
We ask members to pay their dues
at the beginning of the year If they
cannot please pay one half and bal
ance as early as they can.
We have engaged Virgil Egg1eston
who rendered faithful service last
year and gave satisfaction to the
Executive Committee and most of all
the members. He is there to serve
the members and will gladly do their
bidding observing certain rules which
the Executive Committee has deemed
wise and necessary and which we Will
post at the cemetery well house.
The rules are these.
New Lots must be put in order be-
fore received in the Association.
Lots must be spaded and sodded,
when desired before spring work be-
-iA.
Sexton cannot cut trees or remove
stumps on private lots.
The plan of procedure OF work Is
as follows:
Beginning with the S. E. corner
the lots are worked in rotation going
and coming.
If lady desires the service OF the
sexton while she is at the cemetery
he leaves this general work and serves
her. He cannot leave her to work
for another but can take orders II so
desired
Labor is scarce and We must cut
out some things that consume time
We suggest that friends plant flowers
mostly on the graves and have lots
sodded. Have fewer borders and
plant in them roses. chrysanthemums
and sweetalysum. The sweet ally
s,,nos die down and the others can be
cultivated with the hoe. Hand work
consumes time.
Any grievence or misunderstand-
ing. if reported TO president or
member of the committee, Will re-
ceive our best consideration.
We ask the help of Grenada for 1t

Cur only reward is appreciation and
the privilege of serving.
Again we urge each lot owner 10

DIR. SCRUCCS is PRACTICINC
IN MEMPHIS

The Sentinel heard one of Gre
nada's leading physicians say few
days ago that he had called on Pr.
S. D. Scruggs, who is now practicing
in Memphis, and that he found him
nicely situated and that the Doctor
expressed himself as we'll pleased
with the growing number of his pat
ronS.
DR.. Scruggs has rad the training
and the experience, both as general
practitioner and as specialist. to
give him an equipment far beyond
the average city physician, and his
success, especially when he was in the
general practice, was exceptional IN
deed. When he decided to take up
special work, he spent about two
years in New York thoroughly ac-
quainting himself with all affec-
tions of the eye, ear and throat, and
the treatment of these organs. He
has always loved his work, and was
never seemingly better pleased than
when talking medicines and the
things essential for good health. The
Sentinel feels sure that DR.. Scruggs
will get his share of this special prac-
tice in Memphis, and commends him
to the consideration of the good peo-
pie of the Bluff City.
