A MISCELLANEOUS SHOWER.

Umbrellas are not always needed
m showers, as was proven ;ss March
4th when Misses Haclsett and Free
land entertained at a miscellaneous
shower for Miss Thelma Morehead,
who is coon TO become a bride. The
day was beautiful, no storm clouds
visible, vet the shower came and
heavy one it was. The lovely home of
Mr. and Mrs. N. L. Hackett was full
almost to overfiowing with friends
desirous of expressing their best
wishes and admiration for the honor
ee. Not only by their presence did
the guests thus express themselves,
but by gifts consisting Of silver, cut
glass, daintiest Of hand made lingerie,
toilet requisites, household linen, kit
chen utensils and others to numerous
to enumerate.
1t would indeed exhaust the adjec-
tives to. tell Of The beauty Of these,
SO we sum it up as a wonderful ar
ray Of wonderful gifts.
The color scheme was old rose and
the decorations were lovely to behold.
A very large rose formed the center
piece for one table and on it was
placed wedding ring. Standing in
this were two couples representing
the bride and groom, while another,
dressed as the minister, stood in front
of them. Candles with old rose
shades on each corner and baskets,
slippers and bells containing candy
were placed about; while flowers lent
their brightness and perfume to the
scene. Just at 4:30 as the wedding
march was played, the doors opened
and Miss Morehead, beautifully
gowned ia rose taffeta and picture
hat Of same color, one of the shower
gifts, entered. There hung from the
enter Of the fsrs the only umbrella
needed--quite full to the very brim
of most interesting looking packages,
each tied with ribbon Of every color,
As each was handed, she opened read
the name and wishes Of the giver and
passed it on for all to see. After this
most interesting feature, refreshments
were served, and soon good byes were
said, leaving the wish that showers
of blessings may always be for this,
one Of our sweetest of girls.

AFTER MoONsHINERs.

The State Senate has passed what
is known as the Barrett-Ellis bill pro-
viding for the payment Of $50 to every
informer ON a moonshiner. Mr.. Bar
rett Of Claiborne is one Of the auth
ors Of the bill, which, it seems to the
casual observer to be just the thing
to break up illicit stills. Commenting
on the passage Of the bill, the Clari-
on-Ledger says:
"The bill is brief but significant,
conveying statutory authority on TO-
cal and state officials to pay such re-
wards as seem just and equitable, up
TO SEQ, for information and action
towards locating and breaking up IL
licit distilling plants"

the need Of it, it can be dissipated anv
day by listening to the comments Of
strangers and visitors in our midst
One-~-a nurthern man-said recently
that Port Gibson was good place to
die in, for we took good care of our
dead, but it was mighty poor place
to live in judging by our streetsl And
another, a one time resident, told the
writer she was heart sick over this
condition of the old town 1t was SO
changed from her time chat it looked
very much as if we had all lost all
pride and interest in it. 1t. hurts
OF course it hurts. 1t always hurts
to neglect and abuse the thing we
love--and we love Port Gibson. We
are sorry for the one who has to 60
away, and we are glad for the one,
who can come back again. What is
the matter with us? What is the,
defect way down deep within us all
that expresses its self in our streets
and yards? Do you know this town
of ours was once saved from the
torch by Gen. Grant because of its
beanty7 0ne of the priceless mem
ories Of the writer is the Port Gibson

charm of the gardens that surround
ed every home, the cool shade of the
streets and the old man 0'Day, with
his cart and his mule Becky, as he
wandered up and down day after day

ing to be the memories Of your chill
dren7 Will this town be to them
what that town has been to us? Not
unless you and / get together and
make it an influence for good they
viii linger through life, and a mem
ory that will always be treasured.
Let's get out and go to workl Let's
take up the papers and the trash, take
up the cattle, take up the chickens,
and clear our side walks and our va
cant lots, and make the old Port what
we all want it to be-"a thing Of
beauty, and Joy forever"l
If / am mistaken, if / have failed
to guage the quality and mettle of
the people Of Port Gibson, then Of
