Este hecho demuestra que Sc cometeron mn'

vocado grandes discuSiones.
Ahora bien, ;estas discusiones han versado
sobre Ia legitimidad de las credenciales. o sobre
In filiaci6n poliica de los ciudadanos poseedores
de dichas credenciales? Esta es Ia question.
Pues bien: los prcsuntos senores d~iputadHs

TAX RATE FIXED
AT IS z MILLS
BY ALDERMEN

The Board of Aldermen held an
interesting meeting Tuesday night,
the tax rate for the year being the
live question before the body.
The board had the problem of
meeting the necessary expenses of
the city and providing an increased
revenue for the public schools of the
city without increasing the tax levy.
The problem was finally solved, after
much discussion, figuring, etc., and
the board finally decided to let the
tax levy stay as it was last year,
1914 mills, but divided it up as fol-
lows:
5 mills for bond and interest acct.
5 mills for General Fund.
mill for Gen1 Improvem't Fund.
71a mills for School Fund.
The school fund was increased by
taking one mill off the general fund
and adding it to the school fund.
1t was necessary to provide more
money for the school fund because
of the improvements that had been
made and the increase given the
teachers in salaries for this year.
The school trustees submitted bud
get for the year of about $24,000.00.
The increase in taxes would not take
care of this budget, so the board
solved the problem by dividing up the
tax levy as above.
The tax books submitted to the
board for approval showed the tax
valuation of the real and personal
property of the city to be 1885,
CID for this year, against $1,578,-
275 last year, an. increase of $685.
339.
Some members of the board were
not satisfied with the adjustments
made on the valuation of stocks of
several merchants, and after much
discussion the board raised the valu-
alton of about five OF the merchants
by a vote of three for and two
against.
The tax book was then approved
by the board. j. j. Ramsey was en-
ployed by the city to lay the sewer
pipe from the city school. Work
will commence at once and be COM
pleted by the first of January.
Money was appropriated to con-
.inue the improvements being made
to the poles and lines of the light
company. This work was necessary
now to get ready for the new lighting
system.
The board then adjourned.

Mystery
Surrounds
Smoker

A great mystery hangs over the
Smoker" which is to be staged at
che Chamber of Commerce next Fri
day night, Oct. 18th. 1t is known
that the main event of the evening
will be the reception of DR.. Hull, in
whose honor the smoker is staged,
but the program, it is claimed, is one
that will be full of surprises. When
asked about these surprises, G. Odie
Daniel, who is chairman of the en-
tertainment committee, only smiles in
knowing way and says, Gust wait
and see-but don't fail to be there
if you don't want to miss the best
evening of fun we have ever had" >
This is the first social event staged
by the Chamber of Commerce which
has heretofore been devoting it's en-
ergies to civic improvement work, the
securing of new stores for Starkville
and the preparing for most extern
sive campaign throughout the county
this fall and winter to get "one humid
red more dairies by spring"

TEACHERS TRAINING
INSTITUTE BEGINS
SUNDAY MORNING

Rev. ]. D. Ray, in announcing the
Teachers Training Institute for Sun
day school workers at the Baptist
Church beginning next Sunday morn
ing, said that he felt sure that a
treat was in store for every person
interested in Sunday school work
that would attend. The teaching
force will certainly measure up to the
part in our denomination.
Mr.. H. L. Strickland, who is field
secretary of the organized class work
in our Southern Baptist Convention
with headquarters at Nashville, is a
very interesting and enthusiastic
speaker and will be heard twice each
day. Teaching class in which an
outline study will be made of the
Books of the Bible, then taking up
some, special phase of Sunday school
work at the other hour.
Mr.. S. G. PoseyS our state Sunday
school worker, is too a strong and
capable teacher and will teach class
for two periods in New Testament.
Miss Minnie Brown will have
charge of the elementary work She
has been with us before and needs no
word of commentator for she has
brought wonderful messages to the
primary and junior Sunday school
workers heretofore.
The school will meet each after
noon during the week at 4:30 with
two periods of teaching before lunch
and close each night with an address
along lines of interest to all.
All Sunday school workers are in
vited to enjoy this school with US.
The public will certainly enjoy the
closing address each evening, as it
will be not much along the line of
preaching as in the nature of popu-
lar address.

To RID
CITY Of A N I s

A campaign to eradicate the mill
lions of Argentine ants that are
threatening to capture Starkville has
just been started by the experiment
department of the College. This
matter was recently brought up at a
meeting of the Chamber of Com
merce and at the suggestion of the
Board of Directors, committee ac-
companied Mr.. Langston, who has
charge of the campaign, before the
Board of Aldermen at their meeting
this week and outlined all the plans.
Part of the city was over run with
ants last year and a campaign was
put on then but, on account of it's
being started too late, was only par
TALLY effective and this year the ants
have reappeared in bigger masses
than ever before. The territory they
have invaded is much more extensive.
For this reason the work will be
started at once and, it is expected,
will be most successful.
In some parts of the city the ants
have become so numerous that even
the beds in the upstairs rooms have
to be kept standing in pans of water
in an effort to keep from spelling all
chances for q good nights rest.

NUMEROUS COMMUNITY
FAIRS WILL Be HELD
OVER COUNTY THIS FALL

The next two weeks will see more
good community fairs in Oktibbeha
than this county has ever seen before.
The circuit starts off with the fair at
Sessums on October IL, with Craig
Springs on the 18th, Trim Cane on
the 18th, Adaton on the 22nd, Stur-
gis on the 27th-with the dates for
Maben, Center Grove, Pine Forest,
and Osborn to be set this week.
All of these fairs are being staged
by the community clubs, with the as
sistance of Miss Harriet Jones, coun-
ty home demonstration, who has been
very active since going into Office.
The prize winning exhibits Of each
community fair-and the premium
lists are very extensive, will be held
and brought to Starkville for the
"Jersey Show" on October 28th.
Interest is very keen in all parts Of
the county over these>fairs but is pro-
badly keenest at Sturgis, where the
Citizens League announces that every
effort will be made to make the Stur-
gis fair bigger and better than the
one at Starkville. A great deal of
rivalry is being shown between these
two towns and the fairs at these two
places promise to be unusually good.

places for one of Mississippi's worst
enemies, the Malaria Mosquito. Hook
worm and Typhoid Fever are two
dreaded diseases that are easily
spread under such conditions. While
the citizens of Starkville may have
enjoyed rather low rate of these
diseases in the past, it is needless to
argue that the conditions for their
inception and spread do not exist
within the city.
Starkville enjoys the distinction of
being the seat Of Mississippi's larg-
est educational institution. / believe
that over twelve hundred students
come to the city every year. The
city receives considerable benefit
both materially and socially from this
large number of students; it is no
more than to expect the city to give
them clean, healthful and sanitary
city in which to live. Such cannot
be truthfully said today.
At present there are about ninety
homes with some sort of private
system for disposing the household
wastes,all more or less satisfactory
as sthe Individual homes are concern
ed, but not so concerning the city
proper, when these systems discharge
on the city streets and these dis
charges flow past the front doors of
their neighbors. This number of
private systems will increase and
each increase the possibility of the
city voting for a satisfactory sewer
age system will become more remote.
The time to act is now.
The city is well adapted for sew
erage. Drainage is practically all in
one direction with the exception Of a
small area that undoubtedly could be
drained in the general direction of
the larger part of the city. Unfor-
tunately there is no running stream
near the city large enough to re-
ceive the discharge from a sewerage
system. 1t will be necessary there
fore to construct a treatment plant
preferably an Imhoff tank, for the
treatment of the wastes from the
city. The effiuent from such tank

PARENT-TEACHER
ASSOCIATION IS
HERE

The women of Starkville are to be
congratulated upon the move they
have made in the organization of the
Parent-Teachers Association. 1t is a
move in the right direction and some
thing that Starkville has needed for
years. The good that can be ac-
complished by this organization is un-
limited, and the good women of the
city are going to put all the energy
at their command behind this move.
Last Thursday afternoon at the
Ugh school between fifty and seventy
ladies, including the teachers of the
IGN school, met in the auditorium
and organized the Parents-Teachers
association of Starkville.
Mrs. H. Cunningham presided at
the meeting as temporary chairman,
I'd stated the object. Prof. Morris,
superintendent of the school, in an
impressive manner told of the many
needs of such an organization, urging
he cooperation of the parents with
The teachers.
The meeting effected permanent
organization by the election of the
following officers for the ensuing
year:
Mrs. c. B. Buntin president.
Mrs. Cottrell, vice president.
Miss Annie D. Perkins, secretary
treasurer.
Mrs. Buntin after taking the chair
as president called on the mothers to
discuss the subjects mentioned by
Prof. Morris. Several of the ladies
made remarks, showing that they
were vitality interested in the work.
Mrs. Buntin then appointed the fol-
lowing committees:
Bylaws and Constitetion, Mrs.
Howcrton and Mrs. Sessuns.
Mrs. James Ward, Mrs. Harry
Critz and Mrs. May to secure the
services of the physicians of Stark
vile to assist DR.. F. G. Long, county
health officer, in the examination of
the school children.
The meeting was adjourned to
meet again on the third Thursday in
October
