THE McFARLANDs.
Occasionally vaudeville gets real hon
est to goodness grand opera and con-
cert singers.
Such fact exists at Keiths this week,
as Mary and Marie Mcfarland are
hittin' higher notes than have been
warbled there in many moons.
These two are real artists and when
they top the high notes in worth while
songs. it's pleasure to hear the Gus
toners give honest applause for meri-
torious efforts Of the singers.
The Netherlands appear without any
blaze of lights or music as they just
come on and settle down to their bust
ness of singing and it is not long until
you realize that these two grand opera
singers are the best on the bill.
From a comedy standpoint, Bert
Baker and company in sketch called
"Preyarication," are easy winners, as
husbands like to hear another man lie
to his wife in an attempt to prevent
dear wife from finding out about a
mysterious blonde.
Marie Cahill, whose name years ago
drew people to the legitimate theater, is
making her first efforts in vaudeville.
She sings q BIT, has a funny converse
ton over the phone and then sings
little more.
No denying the fact that Maleta Bon
conf is a splendid violinist, but she Is
crowded in on bill heavy with grand
opera stars, but she makes good.
Reno is a comedian in pantomlme and
has some fun with trick bicycle.
holland and Nolan have neat Juggling
act: Fallon and Brown crack some jokes
and the bill includes Billy McDermott
who is allowed to occupy the stage toe
long a cme
Just the McFarlands alone would jus
tify one buying a ticket TO Keiths this
week and Bert Baker and company is an
other reason.

Pioneers OF Suffrage
In the presidential election of
1872 Susan B. Anthony cast IA vote
which she claimed was her right
and privilege. She was promptly
arrested and fined a hundred dol.
lars, which she refused to pay,
and which has never bet paid.
She Cast that historic vote, not
in defiance of law, but calmly
and purp, sely to provoke discus
sion 1t was unimportant 10 her
whether she voted or IL t To
secure for American Women the
ballot was d cause to die for. 1t
was the old struggle against tax
alton without representation | tha t
was the chief eau. Of the Revolu-
tion.
Miss Anthony was subjected
to much Scorn and somt persecu-
tion. Men considered her CIR u
Women Of quality Stunned her
She lived, however, to see many
states enirancnise their women,

ening to the simple truth that a
democracy where half the,people,
of whatever sex, are denied the
! ballot.
Today thinking mn realize
that they cannot hold on to civ
ilization without the help of wo-
men Women FULLY realize that
becoming voters will not usher
in the minimum. As one distin
gulshed Mississippi woman said

women to match fool men," But
intelligent women every where
recognize that by cooperation
with the high minded men equal
suffrage will effect many needed
reforms aud improvement IN ma

FACTIONS

Governor Lee M. Russell was
cheated out of o trip to San Fran
cisco. There is no denying the
fact that he was black -balled by
Wilsonian Democrats. Then the
Governor of the Great State OF
Mississippi forgot that he was
Governor. and rsnted over a t
of Secret Caucus rot and display
ed the undignlfied and ungovern-
able temper of a child. When
will intelligent Mississippians
dismiss it from their minds? If
one half the energy now expend-
ed in Mississippi in fighting each
othAr were directed in fighting
for each other Mississippi would
soon take a most enviable posi-
ti"n among her sister SIates.'

BOND ISSUE FOR BEAT -FOUR.

A few days ago we voted down
a $45, 900 Bond Issue for Beat 4.
Considerable interest was mani
tested in the March election for
SIS, 900. Today it seems that a
change of mind has taken place
People seem to have lost interest
and confidence. We all know the
present condition of affairs here
in Be It 4. The same is true in
the other four beats The issue
is lost. What are we going to do?
Let US start move to abandon
The present system and work the
roads ourselves. Its a failure and
it occurs to me that to continue
same is a shame.
Our communication road fund
amounts to probably $4,000 per
annum for Beat 4.
We have about 200 miles OF
road in the beat; so, YOU see 10
divide mp amounts to $3.50 PEI
mile-A sum too insignificant tn
mention, when we consider th,
condition of the roads and the
price OF labor. Twelve or fiji teen
dollars per mile has about the
same effect as 40 or so pounds oI
low grade fertilizer per acre,
The result is Unsatisfactory and
useless expenditure of money.
Let's have few figures. Say, we
hav 8U0 mn in the beat " ho arc
able to perform road work and
each man give 10 days per year
five IN Feb and five in Sep:.-we
h ,v4 then 5000 days work or a.
days on each mile. Don't you
think this would change the ap-
prarsnce of things?
I'm ready now to take the
pr, per steps to abandon the pres
eht system.
Talk the matter over and some
on in each precinct report the
sentiment IF the people.
Tn" Board has no authori y to
increase the road fund, that is,
the commutatlon fund-They can
extend the advalorum tax from l
tu3 mills. but this would only b.
small sum alter all. There are
only two things We can do-bor.
rev money or work the roads by
t. people.
We must get busy or stay at
home next winter again.

WARM DAYS BRING
SIGNS OF SPRING
And Uncle Sam Points Out Need
of Gardens to Reduce Costs
Coming Year.

Marbles, roller skates and garden
seed came back to Brookhaven the
past week. These, along with dali
sizes in the fields, and hyacinths here
and there which are carefully cover
ed with pots on cold nights are
Brookhaven's first sign of spring
which many predict will come early
this year.
There's another sign Of the coming
spring, and that's the advice being
sent out by the Federal Government
upon the Importance of early gardens
in the Gulf Coast region.
Gardens" says the Government,
"are going to be just as important
the coming year as during the war
period. High food costs are likely
to remain until more to eat is grown
and distributed. Farm gardens, viii
lage gardens, and city back yard
gardens all will help. Food produced
in the garden not only helps balance
the family budget but relases that
grown on the farm for the use Of
people who are entirely dependent
upon others. 4
with the lengthening of the days
it will not be long until land can be
worked, and such hardy crops as peas,
onions, lettuce, radishes and beets
planted, especially throughout the
lower Gulf Coast region. The aver
age date of the last killing frost of
the winter in this section is not later
than March Is. This zone includes
the southern portion Of South Caro-
lima, the southern half Of Georgia,
Alabama and Mississippi, almost the
whole of Louisiana and all southern
Texas. Several of the more hardy
garden crops, including those mem
toned above, will Withstand con-
siderable frost and may be planted
at least a month before the average
date of the last FROST"
