HAVE YOU AND
 YOURS COMPLIED?

An offlclal communication has been received by post master Marr to the tne effect that Prescott free mail service will positively be inaugrated March l, htis year. The first thing some people will do when they read this IS to make some bright remark about the number of times it has been stated that the service would start. and that it has never started vet. Let's see who is to blame for the postponment fthe service. The gov ernment has informed our people through the newspapers, time and again that hte service would begin when sufficient number of mail boxes were installed and when the street signs were erected. The city has not come up to these requirements in either case and such carelessness on our part will indefinitely postpone the establishment of the service or worse still may cause the government to withdraw the offer entirely.
 Take it on yourself to look around your neighborhood and see if all the houses have mail receptacles and num- bers and if not remind them of the fact that they are holding of the free mail service by their carelessness neglect. The council should see that the street signs are immediately erect ed to conform with government re- quirements. After htis is done then we can kick if the mail service is not put on.

WOMEN IN FAVOR
OF GOOD ROADS
Will Register Today and Tomorrow in
Order to Vote in Bond Issue.

The importance of women registering
today and tomorrow, the last two days
in which they can register to vote on
the good roads proposition, is stressed
by number of women in the city who
are interested in not only this move
but in the civic betterment OF the city.
The following are statements from
some OF the prominent women Of the
city who are interested in civic mat
ters:

and do their part in putting over the
bond issue for better roads"
Mrs. Leroy V. Holsberry: Il have
not been as enthusiastic as some others
for woman suffrage, but now that the
privilege is given us to vote, l am glad

to vote. and especially in favor of bet
ter roads. think it VIII be found that
great majority of the women will
vote in favor OF civic improvements"
Mrs. w. r. Taylor: "The women of
the country, aided by many liberal
minded men. have finally won the right
to vote. From my experience in lob
bying with the United States senate in
Washington to get them to submit the
amendment to the states, know some
thing of what it took to get the wo-
men the right TO vote. Women are
naturally progressive and | cannot
help but believe they will gladly ex-
ercise the right of suffrage given them
in favor of good roads. Before they
had the right to vote they aligned
themselves with every movement for
better government and civic impi cNe-
ment and n0~ that We have it in our

these purposes. we certainly should

Be Sent.

ing of a drum of disinfectant from
Jacksonville to the county Jail of Es-
Gambia county while he was jailer,

G.. w. Wfllingham yesterday. The
drum was sent to the Jail and the
county commissioners refused to honor
the bill when it was presented to them
recently.
The salesman for the company, &C
cordng to Mr.. Willingham, asked him
if he would use a sample OF the dis
infectant in the Jail and that if it was
good would he recommend it to the
commissioners. He agreed and
thought no more of it. Before the
salesman left, he asked Mr.. Willingham
to sign a sheet of paper, which, &C
cording to the deputy. was blank with
the exception of a date line, and the
deputy did so. stating last night that
he was under the impression that the
salesman wanted his name and ad-
dress.
Shortly following the visit OF this
salesman. the deputy said. he received
a 3S-calibre Smith & Wesson revolver
through the mail from Jacksonville.
This had not been agreed upon, nor
had the salesman intimated that any
premium would be sent, said Mr.. Will
bingham.

gallons, a full drum of about 1870 gal
Ions Of disinfectant was received and
the deputy informed one of the county
commissioners of the deal. The COM

EDUCATION AND CULTURE DE
TERAmNMe FORCES.
By DR.. NJ A. Majors.


Education Of the head, the heart and
the hand is the great need of the world
today, and as remarkable as our de-
velopment may seem to be there are a
great number Of screws loose in the
running gear Of our race mechanism.
We see every day evidences Of our
sad luck Of race cohesion. As we take
perspective glance about us and see
what the other races are doing, and
have been doing all the time, we are
almost impelled by our disparagement
to consider comparison odious.
Being educated carries along all the
sober forces that go to figure so very
insistently to make US assume proper
obligations, to I'LL the bin exactly in
matters of responsibility and to de-
termine for ourselves the great joys
and blessings aeeruing from a well
established and fixed notion as to
ideals.
Education has done for us in fifty
years considerably more than it has
done for any other race. What does
that provef 1t proves many things
but chiefly it proves that we have
great intellectual capacity, a capacity
that enables our young men and women
to win honors from high schools in col
leges of the first magnitude.
The principles of life which should
enhance, as well as multiply opportu-
mites spring from environment in
great measure, although the parents
stem was forbidden centuries to read,
and to learn, they saw the results Of
education and culture in the life
around them and the human heart al
ways thirsting and nearly bursting for
the best and noblest things of life they
have bequeathed it to their children,
reflected from the mind and heart Of
our ancestors uneducated and inlet
tered.
But education is not of very much
service If it is not used in the best
sense possible.
If you, reader can find weak spots
in your social and educational struc-
ture that need strengthening, do not
grOvel and bungle, begin and hastily
mend them, and do not fool yourself
that dress and physical appearance win
take the place Of knowledge and eul-
ture, the world is already two full of
dressed up pimps and mOlly-eoddles.
