A PLACE TO TIE.


I'VE noticed afloat and a-tramping,
I've seen it on river and land,
The thing that the most
y You need is post
To tie to when night is at hand,
Some sort Of an anchor to hold you,
Some hawser that never will fail,
Some place you can tie
Till the storm has gone by,
To help you to ride out the gale.
So many go foolishly drifting
While rapids are roaring below,
Afloat on the tide
Without compass or guide.
Till d6wn to disaster they go;
The need of us all Is an anchor,
A painter to tie to the shore,
Some place to make fast
Till the tempest is past
And the waters are rolling no more
So many afloat on the river.
The turbulent river Of life,
Have only their own
Poor resistance alone
To cooquer the trouble and strife.
A fellow needs something to tie to.
His trail, FER the sea or the sod,
Some II, end that Is true
Who viii carry him through
A woman, IA pal, or a God.

What are the five things most worth

compiled from the experiences of a
dozen or more world travellers who
discussed the interesting question.
Here are the things which were In
general agreed upon as the five things
most worth seeing:

SOMETHING TO
THINK ABOUT
ByF. A. Walker

By F. A. Walker

/ There may have been greater difficult
ties to surmount In the building of
the pyramids but they are useless
things, not so wonderful now as a
modern city skyscraper.
All five Of these things are the &C.
complishments of the brain Of man.
Added to them the traveller around the
world would wish to see those other
and greater things that man has never
equaled: The falls at Niagara, the
Grand canyon, the mighty trees of
California, the great tides of Fundy,
the caverns at Luray, the mountain
GUS monuments of God in he Alps
and the Himnayas, the supreme
beauty Of Lake Louise or the Bay of
Naples.
To the traveller there Is given the
great privilege of seeing with his own
eyes but even IL you cannot travel,
the beauties and the wonders of the
world are not denied you. You can
see them through the eyes of others
who have seen them and have written
down In graphic and truthful language
the wonders that they found
If you are interested In any of the
five things Of man enumerated above
you can find them all interestingly
written about in any good library, and
Of the greater things In nature hun
dreds of books have been written on
each of them.

THE TRAINED NURSE.

NURSING Is going to be greater
~ opportunity for the right woman
than ever before in the history Of
medicine.
There is going to be better regula-
ton OF working hours and an advance
In salary. For the demand is exceeding
the supply and inducements to take
up the profession must necessarily
grow more attractive.
If you want to be nurse 1t is your
duty to take the training, for you are
wanted, and your work waits for you.
In some of our states there are no
laws making the registration of nurses
compulsory. Because of this, I'M
trained or partly trained women com
pete with the trained nurse for private
work. Laws must be passed that will
alter these things for the better. The
Red Cross is hoping to demonstrate
the need of the properly trained nurse
so strongly that every community will
be led to demand proper registration
law and certain degree Of training
for its nurses.
In choosing your training school. be
sure that you select first-class hos
pital. You will get infinitely better
treatment and your diploma will count
for far more.
Nursing Is hard work, but for the
woman with vocation 1t Is work that
she loves. A graduate nurse is val
liable member of the community. Her
standing Is secure, and she can be
sure Of good income. In her pro-
fessional life she is thrown with men
and women OF high calIber. II you
have any leaning that way, 1t Is worth
much effort to get started

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"BLAckcuARD."


TN OLDEN days the palaces of

was customary when members
Of royalty or the nobility visited
each other that the guest should
bring with him all his kitchen
utensils. pots. pans and even a
certain amount Of coal. The
scullions and lesser retainers
had charge Of these goods. rode
among them, were smutted by
them and received the contemp-
tuous appellation Of the "black
guard" In time the word came
to be understood as meaning
any troop or company of raga-
mullins, and finally, when Its
original application had been
buried In the lore of centuries,
1t was applied to single per-
son as an epithet of opprobri-

a rogue or rascal who would

Poplarville is very proud OF It's
new motion picture theatre, one OF
the very finest of it's kind in the
State, and which formally opens to

The Poplarville Free Press has
this mention on the occasion of the
completion of the building. 1t says
"The new building just completed

for Messrs. Walker and Huff is one
Of the most ornate and up-to-date

BIG EVENT IN NEW ORLEANS.

New Orleans is making prepara-
tions to entertain the largest num-
Der of old-time fiddlers ever gotten
together within bow distance.
1t is planning the biggest old
fiddlers contest the South has ever
known, and is offering large cash
prizes for the oldest fiddler, the one
who has come the longest distance,
and the best performer. Other prizes
will be announced later. Prizes will
be in money and silver loving cups.
The contest is open to all fddlers.
The event is one of the main features
of the Interstate Farm Congress
that will be held there September IL
to IT.
The purpose of the Congress are
to:
/. Increase farm production.
2. Broaden and stabilize the New
Orleans market.
3. Develop fair dealing between
produce dealers and farmers.
4. Urge the growing of quality
food products and the raising OF
pure bred livestock.
5. Stress the necessity of proper
grading and packing in standardized
containers.
6. Develop a good roads plan.
A special invitation will be sent to
the editors of the country press to
attend. Between them, the farmers,
the merchants and the produce deal
ers, there will be group meetings
with a view to bringing the country
and the city closer together.
This is the first Congress of the
kind ever held in the South, and the
business interests of New Orleans
are behind it in an effort to put over
an event that will be memorable and
productive of results.
The Mississippi A. & M. College
and the Louisiana State University
have endorsed the movement, and
the Governors of Mississippi and
Louisiana have agreed to issue pro,
clamation. A similar request has
been made to the Governor Of Ala
bama.
The railroads will make low rates
for the event.

of these counties the supervisors are
not going to give as much as they
gave last year and in the majority
they have made the same appropria-
ton? Now what does this mean?
Nothing more than the weakening of
the efficiency of their schools, which
means a check in our progressive
movements. The excuse is, taxes are
just too high, We can't pay them but
| notice that they are not too high
to build more roads and improve
them, to build more vats and dip
more cattle, to improve our farm
lands and various other things that
We consider things We need. | am
not advocating a reduction IN the ap-
preparation for these industries nor
less attention to be given them but
| do ask that the educational side get
an equal consideration and appro-
priations from the lawmakers of our
county and state. 1t is nothing but
Just and right to the country's cause
that it has that. The State Superin-
tendent mas said, that the compul-
sorry school law brought into the
school rooms last year more than
10000 children, which means not
less than 1900 more teachers to en-
ploy. To employ these teachers re-
quires more money and unless we
get the consideration of our law
makers, in the way of appropriation,
there cannot be anything else ex-
cept a falling down in our educa-
tional movements.
/ am for every Improvement that
will make our country better, for
every industry that will help us but
we are never going to do more than
we are capable of doing. We only do
the things we are qualified to do and
We only qualify by the advantages
we have. Then if we want great
country whose's industries will sup
port great people let US qualify
that people in order that these indus
tries be made equal to what we eX-
pect.

NO OIL IN MISSISSIPPI.
State Geologist Lowe Says So.-Ad
vises People Against
"Wildcatting."

That oil exists in Mississippi there is
a diversity of opinion. However, ac-
cording to the Jackson Clarion-Led-
ger, State Geologist Lowe says there
is no oil in the State and advises the
people against "wildcatting."
No opinion is final until proven
correct and The Echo prints the fol-
lowing for which it is worth.
Mr.. Fred Banderet, of Bay ST.
Louis, well-known driller in the
Southwest oil fields and man
whose knowledge in the premises Is
extensive, has expressed the same
opinion ON many occasions. "But" he
has said, eff oil exists in Mississippi,
one would have to drill so deep as to
make the experiment well nigh pro
hibitive and the quantity of produc-
ton would be doubtful"
The Clarion-Ledger's article fol
lows:
Estate Geologist Lowe has called
attention to an article by himself in
which he points out the foolishness
of sswildcatting" for oil in Missis-
sippi. Mr.. Lowe states that there is
no sense in the people of Mississippi
being continually duped In the mat
ter of oil signs and other things that
have been brought up by some fake
geologist or oil driller who is out OF
a job to induce the people to place
their hard earned cash in such Wild
cat measures. The companies who
make it their business to locate and
develop oil producing territory have
never started any sort of property
developments in Mississippi, simply
because there has been absolutely nc
indications that were good enough
to warrant their even spending
small amount of money on. "Shoe
maker, stick to your last" is the very
excellent advice that J the efficient
State Geologist' hands out to the peo
| pie of Mississippi.
