The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1920-01-30

Figures submitted to Congress show, provided all demands
are met, that it will take 1865, 41O, OBJ .62 to run the govern
ment for the next fiscal year, beginning July l, whereas the ex-
pendtures for the year 1915 We're 81, O94, 1913, 1920.
The question is going to be asked: Are those keeping faith
with the people who were elected knowing that certain offices
paid only certain amounts and now, after the election and they
are in office, say they cannot live on what the law provides?
By all means the legislature should enact a law which would
provide for the payment of those who conduct primaries just as
those officers who hold regular elections. This would tend to
reduce the cost of candidates, a matter that keeps some of linn
tied means from seeking office. -
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1920-01-30

Dir. Pope, director of the health campaign that has been
put on in Grenada County, regrets very much that the bad
weather and the almost impossible conditions of the public
roads have made it impossible for him and his staff to get away
from the rail roads and starte 10 work as he hoped to have
done by this time. However, he is losing no time and is thor
oughly familiarizing himself with conditions and localities, and
as soon as the roads will permit, will be in every nook and cor
nr of the County. The Sentinel bespeaks for DR.. Pope and
we'll wishes, but the active aid and cooperation of the entire cit
iZenship of the County. We feel sure that this will be had.
We appreciate tina. there are some who are disposed to quib-
bic about what the doctors say" and about every advance IN
science. This has always been the case. People laughed at
Columbus when he insisted that the world was round and that
by sailing west he would arrive at a point east.
Looking back only a few years in our own Immediate history,
we can see how ludicrous and almost ridiculous we appeared
watch the trains and every highway and by path that came into
Grenada. Later, the doctors said that the fever was transmit
ted or carried by mosquitoes and not by people I'LL with the few
err, and time has shown that the doctors were right.
The great aim of medical science now Is to prevent disease
rather than cure the patient after his is afflicted. Sickness is
a costly thing. It costs the people OF the United States every
wear more than all governmental machinery. Statistics show
that 10 per cent of the population of the country are afflicted
with tuberculosis. In Grenada County we have about $4,000
people, SO we evidently have about 1900 people suffering from
STAGE Well. if the health crusade will save even ten of these
tuberculosis subjects, why that would be worth every dollar
we n spending, yea more. But in addition to that, every other
communicable disease will be given attention. The children
of the County will be carefully examined and parents advised
q 9 70 those things necessary to make them stout and vigorous
men and women. Are there any parents in Grenada County
that do not crave these things for their children? We hope not.
The health crusade is a big thing for Grenada County. We
already have a high place on the map but this will give us a still
HIGHER one. Nobody is compelled to do what DR.. Pope or the
Pod Cross nurses suggest. Their nilsson is to ascertain health
and sanitary conditions and advise all OF us. The responsibility
10 then upon the citizenship of the County.
Read a statement from DR.. Pope which appears on the hrst
page of this issue. ---

LEXINGTON ADVERTISER ALSO OBSERVES.

1.-THE Grenada Sentinel suggests its about time to cap
ture and confne the Drive starters, and the suggestion
will meet with uniform approval in newspaper circles.
People and organizations in all sections of the United
States seem determined to grab as much free publicity =
from the newspaper publisher as possible, but in proper
ton to the amount of matter sent out they are meeting
with but little success. If these people could be choked up
and congress deprived of the Leave to print privileges
we believe the paper shortage would quickly become a
thing of the past"
There have been millions of tons, we do not think the state
ment extravaganza, of paper wasted during the past three years
by the multiplied organizations started to "save" the world, Sin
|struct' the people, Garry the message" help the good work"
and almost innumerable other things. These organizations
have been allowed to use paper at willard a very great many
are still at the same appendix" task. If they would cease
or were stopped, paper would unquestionably drop in price.
These things for free space come to us every day and with
patriotic regularity, they go into the waste basket. 1t lis not an
infrequent thing even now to get requests for publication from
the representative of some department or bereau of the gov
eminent asking for space and stating that there are no funds
to pay for space" yet the very fellow that sends out the article
is well paid.
If every fellow who is now trying to instruct somebody
else how to do some particular thing, would get off his job and
go out and give an ocular demonstration in instruction, why, a
great step would be taken forward towards simplifying our
problems.
We have had enough, of shooting sky-rockets at rainbows.
The average newspaper has done more than it's part of "free"
work and some of them, like the willing horse, have been rid
den until they have the "thumps."

THE CONCENTRATION OF THE COLLEGES.

The proposition presented to tn. legislature by EX-Gov. Shell
don of Washington County to move the State University and the
other higher educational institutions of the State to one CEN
trail point and put them under one directing head, is the most
forward looking move that has been presented for years in re-
is a matter that we discussed in a report which we had the hon
or to prepare and present as Secretary of the Board of Trustees
of the higher educational institutions at one time. Of course
the initial move would be costly but in Is years the taxpayers
would be ahead on the proposition, and better still, these great
institutions would be doing far better work and would be freer
from the tampering hand Of the scheming politician. And
while discussing our colleges, we want to say that we hope the
legislature will enact the miIage tax law.

SELF HELPING

The Indian at the party, served with viands from q side
board, remarked:
tToo MANY people helpinp Indian. Indian will help him
self"
And he proceeded to do so.
A great many Americans would find it easy to ~sympathize
with the red mans point OF view. AS We look back, it is
activities has been 'too many people helping Indian" and not
enough people helping Indian to help himself.
The average man and the average boy object to being fused
over. The experience of War Camp Community Service drove
that fact hard upon the consciousness of the community work
es whose business 1t was to minister to the comfort and recre-
atlonal needs OF the enlisted men. 1t was found that, given
the tools, the opportunity and a touch of leadership, the uni
formed men would 60 a long way in working out a satisfactory
recreation programme. It was not that they did not need
guidance. They did, and appreciated it. But they did not
need and did not appreciate q condition in which there were
so many people helping Indian" that Indian had no chance
to help himself.
Social relations, having in the past been SO largely dictated
by whlm, tradition or prejudice, are seldom logical unless
consciously and intelligently readjusted. Then, too, there is
always the parodoxical situation that the more people there are
10 know IN any one place, the harder 1t IS to know any of them.
One of the present day social phenomena is the extent to
which the words Community Service" have got into the cur
rent vocabulary. 1t would be going too far to characterize
adays, though, it could properly be said to stand for a new
attitude. Community Service, peace-time outgrOwth of War
Camp Community Service, reaches the individual by organic
ing the community, by making community life a conscious
activity.
1t is impossible to establish community life BY decree. lust as
1t is impossible to establish friendship by cOmpulsion. There
are those who imagine that people can be gathered together,
commanded to be sociable and left to their fate. Desirable
munity life where there is no community service. Unless com
nunity life is a growth, it is without roots, and exists as a
superimpOsed structure. All of that throws us back to the
starting point. 1t is the business Of organized Community
Service to see to it that there are not 50 many people helpipe
indian that Indian has no chance to help himself. Organized
Community Service can supply the stimulus, the opportunity
and initial direction, but the community must stand by reason
of its own strength.

THAT REORGANIZATION BILL.

A bill has passed the United States Senate which appropri
ates $4,000, 900 to be used in instructing all residents of the
United States of 16 years and over up to Fl, and all residents
of more than 6 months who are aliens from the ages of 16 to
40 in English. The purpose of the bill, it is stated, is to "Ameri
canize" our citizenship and to require those born in foreign
countries to become familiar with our language, and especially
to know something of the government under which they seek
shelter. The money is to be used in these states where the fed.
eral appropriation is duplicated.
Senator Pat Harrison was right in taking the position that the
bill goes a long way round to do what ought to be done some
other way. Pretty costly. What should be done is to prevent
foreigners coming here who cannot meet these requirmentS and
those who are here and who are raising so much deviltry should
either be hanged or deported.
