that by teaching iacemaking the wom-

One often hears the expression,
my child caught a severe cold which
developed into diptheria," when the
truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one particularly suscep-
tible to the wandering diptheria bug.
If you child has a cold when diptheria
is prevalent you should take him out
of school and keep him off the street
until fully recovered, as there is a
hundred times more danger of his
diptheria when he has a cold.
When Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
is given it quickly cures the cold and
lessons the danger of diptheria or any
other germ disease being contracted.

ATTACKS GRAVITATION LAWS
Newton's Theory Not Absolute, De-
ciares Prof. Maiorano, ital-
ian Scientist.

Rome, Italy.-NewtOn'S theory OF
gravitation has been attacked by Pro-
lessor MaiOrano, who, speaking before
q meeting of prominent scientists here,
declared the results Of experiments he
had performed upset the hitherto &C
cepted laws Of physics governing the
motions Of celestial bodies. Newton's
theory, while hitherto considered alb
solute. is only an approximate hypoth-
esis, according to Professor MaiOrano,
who supports this assertion by show
ing that a ball of lead coating in mer-
curry becomes slightly lighter.
From this the professor deduces four
things:
First. that bodies have both a true
and an apparent mass, the true mass
of the sun being double the apparent
mass.
Second, that the stars attract other
bodies with forces entirely different
from those thus far admitted to ex-
list.
Third, that the solar heat Of stars Il
generated by the force Of gravitation
emanating from interior strata. From
this. he argues. the solar system has
had an immensely longer life than has
been believed by scientists until the
present.
Fourth, that the evolution Of the
world has been closely linked to the
phenomenon which he has discovered.

We need fertilizer the more on &C.

earlier. And it is not too late to put
it down. In fact / like it better put
down Just ahead of the planting.
The velvet beans and soy beans
are here now. If you have any in
this order or expect to get any get
them right away. ] cannot hold
these seed here. The soy beans have
been here about two weeks and | have
tried to notify everybody yet good
many of them are still here. II the
ones who ordered them do not get
them in the next few days will have
to let them go to the first ones who
want them.
l want to ask your hearty coopera-
ton in getting the boys started in
club work. We are going to have
a real fair here this fall and the boys
are going to wish they had something
to exhibit. The farmers too might
begin to think of having something
to put on exhibit. The Fair Grounds
are being remodeled and everything
will be in good shape. Other
ties will have exhibits here. So lets
begin now to put Grenada County

Miss, recently. Miss Clsrk's latest
starring vehicle will be displayed at
the Opera House next Monday.
The visit Of Miss Clark and her
company proved to be a great event
in the quiet social life of the quaint
little town. Never before had the
village been honored by the presence
of a real motion picture troupe, and
only once before had a cameraman
ever turned a crank there for the ed
ification and education of the inhab-
itants. This was several years ago
when President Wilson visited some
relatives there for a few days, the
event subsequently finding its way
into one of the motion picture news
weeklies. The result was that the
schools of the village were closed for
an entire day and excursions were run
from Biloxi and other nearby towns,
in order that the inhabitants might
see just how motion pictures are
made.

Gave His Salary to Kings Daughters

Gave His Salary TO Ming Dausn.ei
Hon. O. F. Bledsoe, Jr., of LeFlore,
representative in the lower house OF
the legislature from his County, was
fortunately situated so that he did
not need his salary as a legislator and
was bic enough of heart not to use
it. His salary and mileage went to
the Kings Daughters hospital OF his
County.
Grenada has some claim on this
splendid gentleman. He is a son of
Col. ard Mrs. o. F. Bledsoe, who are
honored citizens of this County and
live in their beautiful home just be-
yond the western limits of Grenada.
Mr.. Rledsoe was one of the pains
taking, very careful men in the law
making body. He was not often on
the floor to make a speech but was
effective in committee rooms where
most legislation is shaped. He is 8
public spirited citizen and a man
who takes a keen interest in all that
pertains to the development of his
County. While a most successful
business man, Mr.. Bledsoe has not
overlooked the finer things of life,
and has not been so absorbed in busi-
ness as to force him to forget mental
training and keeping informed as to
the events and question of the day.
He is one of LeFlore County's larg-
est and most successful planters.
Col. and Mrs. Bledsoe have every rea-
son to feel a just pride in their son.
