The latter part of April it was
our pleasure to visit the town
of our nativity, Louisville,
Mississippi. Nine years had
elapsed since we last stopped off
at that good old town. Had
we been dropped on main street.
where in our early days we
were little more than a street
arab," and where some
of our undesirable education was
obtained, we would have been
as completely lost as if we had
been conveyed to some distant
planet. Only two buildings on
this street looked anything like
the town of thirty odd years
ago when last we claimed this
berg as our home. 1t had
changed from a country village
to a thriving little city. with
water works and electric lights
and many other modern con-

From some rumors we hear,
the recent term of court did not
convince everybody that whiskey
making must stop in this
vicinity. We understand that
the business is still in progress.
We would warn those who would
be guilty of such acts that they
are running a great risk. The
great body of the people have
decided that this business must
stop, and stop it will if every
tenth man must be sent to the
pen in order to accomplish this
result.

decided to abide by the decision
of the Circuit Court. According

veniences.
But what struck US more
fourcibly than anything else
was the churches. True this
has always been a town of
churches, and we had heard of
the wonderful improvement
that had been made along this
line, still we were not prepared
to see such churches as are there
to greet the eyes of the ihcom-
in:s visitor and to house the
worshipers of the town. These
churches would do credit to a
town five times the size of Louis
vile.

All the schools in the county have

nevertheless the response has been very
commendable. As the school sessions

treatment reports, health posters, and
records of health work accomplished
are being received almost daily by the
county nurse. Many interesting let
tiers are also coming from the pupils.

enough to have had his defects correct

Needed In Club Work

Girls club leader is to be retained and
the work already started by 300 boys
and girls in the county carried to a
successful conclusion, it was decided at

Friday morning at the Office Of the
county agent in the court house Mar
shall county's greatest crop, the boys
and girls, will be endangered by the
failure to secure this money, according
to B. r. HOuser, county agent.
A prominent Warren citizen has come
forth with $3.50 for the cause and the
same amount is needed in addition to
insure the services of the club leader
for the rest of the season This money
is needed to defray the salary and ex-
penses of the club leader who is q fed
eral ex-service man receiving 500 a
month from the governments His ex-
penses while engaged in his work and
additional salary must be furnished
locally and unless this is done 1t. will
become necessary to let him go on the
Dist of this month.
It was decided to attempt to raise
the money needed by popular subscrip
ton, at the meeting last Friday and an
effort will be made in that direction.
Already there are 800 Marshall county
boys and girls actively engaged in the
club work with new members being en-
rolled every day by the club leader.
