the expensive modern hospital The
Sisters could not work harder than
they do il they were working for
Christ.
THE change from the old to the
new hospital has come about 50 sud-

1t has meant or what losses it entail

Croesus, our best paying guest, would
leave us if he heard us mention the

our work, but deep down in the heart
Of every nun devoted to this ministry

to Christ and doing works o; charity

HOLY FATHER ON IRELAND

to the recent war, for neither has
sufficient consideration been given
to the desires of nations nor have
the fruits Of peace which peoples
promised to themselves been
reaped.
Holy Sees Attitude.
But in the public strife which
is taking place in your country, it
is the deliberate counsel OF the
Holy See, a counsel consistently
acted upon up to the present in
similar circumstances, to take sides
with neither of the contending
parties.
Such neutrality, however, by no
means prevents Us from wishing
and desiring, nor even from pray
ing and beseeching, the contending
parties, that the frenzy of strife
may as soon as possible subside and
that a lasting peace and a sincere
union of, hearts may take the place
of this terrible renmity, for indeed
We do not perceive how this bitter
strife can profit either of the parties
when property and homes are being
ruthlessly and disgracefully laid
waste, when villages and farm
steads are being set aflame, when
neither sacred places nor sacred per-
sons are spared, when on both sides
a war resulting in the. death of un-
armed people, even of the women and
children, is carried on.
An Effort for Peace.
Mindful, therefore, of the
Apostolic Office, and moved by
that charity which embraces all
men, We exhort English as well
as Irish to calmly consider whether
the time has not arrived to aban-
don violence and treat of some
means of mutual agreement. +.
For this end We-think it would
be opportune if effect were given
to the plan recently suggested by
distinguished men as we'll as skilled
politicians, that is to say, that the
question at issue should be referred
for discussion to some body of men
selected by the whole Irish nation.
And when this conference has pub
lished it's findings let the more
influential among both parties meet
togsthei esr1.s.. siiSying put forward
and discussed the views and con-
clusions arrived ait ION both sides,
let them determine i by common
consent on some means of settling
the question in a sincere spirit ,oi
peace and reconciliation.
Relief Of sufferings.
Meanwhile We have heard with
heartfelt pleasure that you, Oul
beloved son, inpelled by the char
ity which suffers no delay and com
mands Us to lay aside all difference

WORK ON GRAVELED
HIGHWAY TO BEGIN
At AN EARLY DATE
Money Enroute to Bank Gravel Pit
in District q. Citizens Should
Cooperate. Advisory Board.

Work towards making the Jeffer-
son Davis Highway through Grenada
county permanent will be well under
way, so the supervisors think, next
week. The bonds have been sold and
the money is in transit to Grenada
Bank. The board of supervisors
have named the following level head
ed, capable men as an advisory
board: H. J. Ray, w. d. Salmon, J.
+. Carpenter, w. n. Hayward and
w F.. Martin.
Much qualification is expressed ov-
er the gravel pit located on the old
Payne farm near what was formerly
called Tatum, district 4, from which
IT IS believed that some as fine gray
ei Will be got as can be found any
where. Work towards hauling the
gravel, which has been bought by the
cubic yard, will be started next
week. 1t is understood that the
bridges which are to be constructed
Will be concrete.
Mr.. r. West has been named bv
the supervisors to have charge of all
labor. Those who recall Mr.. Vests
strict adherence to the law while he
was sheriff feel that they can rest
assured that he will see that the
county gets a square deal and that
what is termed a day will be a full
day before it is put on the county
pay roll. Taking the advisory board
and the services of Mr. West into
consideration and the action and eX-
pressed determination of each and
every member Of the board it would
appear that the citizenship of the
e. n i IL
supervisors are going to do their
dead level best to see that the coun-
ty gets 100 cents on the dollar for
road expenditures.
Unofficial information is that with
the right road spirit in the county,
not only will the federal funds here
tofore referred to be got from the
State Highway Department, but
ss2ua o00. besides. - ~ .--srr,J ....., :. i.
The bonds were voted now nearly
one year ago. The county has real
ly saved money by the delay; in 9TH
er words the expenditure of the
funds will now go fully one-third
further than they would have gone
twelve months ago. Possibly there
were some who, in view of the short
crop Of last year and business condi-
tions generally, thought that it would
have been best to pass the bond is
sue up and wait, but there is no use
to think along those lines now. The
bonds have been sold and the money
Is going to be spent, so it would seem
to be the part of wisdom for every
good citizen to join in and assist in
getting the very best roads for the
money. 1t is cooperation and coun-
sci that is needed now.

STATUS OF TELEPHONE
RATES MATTER
Federal Judge Refuses to Allow Com
pany To Jump State Courts. Hear
ing Had Tuesday of this Week.

As the reading public knows. a
writ of certiorarl was issued by
Judge Wiley H. Potter of Kinds cOun-
ty March 21. which served as stay
of proceedings in the matter of rent
al rates allowed the Cumberland Telo-
phone & Telegraph Co. March 2.
When Judge Potter issued the writ.
the telephone company then Went
into court to urge that he was with
out jurisdiction. Arguments were
made and after some days delibera-
ton, Judge Potter overruled the con-
tention of the telephone company,
whereupon the telephone company
filed bill before United States Judge
Edwin Holmes of Yazoo City which
sought to overrule the state authori-
ties. The case was heard by Judge
Holmes on Tuesday of this week in
YazoO City at which hearing the
Editor of this paper and the 9TH
er members of the cOmmitte of Nine.
were present. Judge Holmes knock
ed the telephone company out of the
box by holding that it was state
matter and one that could not prop
erly come before him. Thereupon
the attorneys for the telephone COM
pany filed another bill, which they
already had prepared, asking tenn
porary injunction against the state
authorities interfering with al in
crease of their, rates while the case
was reaching final adjudication in
the courts. In the new bill they sub
mt tariff of charges. Their attOr-
news allege that present rates in
Mississippi are confiscatory, but when
they were before the Rail Road Com
mission asking for an increase in
rates, notwithstanding the fact that
they were repeatedly urged to show
expense bills, they unconditionally re-
fused. The telephone company
seems to want the courts and the
public just to take their word as to
the cost Of operating their lines. 1t
is the opinion of this paper that they
will have to make show down, and
this paper also believes that when a
clean, clear-cut show down is made,
that the fact will stand forth as clear
as the monday sun that the said
company is already charging in Mis-
sissippi all honesty and square deal
for the public will warrant.
