CARD OF THANKS.

Thoughtful and sympathetic words
are never unappreciated, certainly
they never go unrewarded. The sin
cere evidences of sympathy and kind
interest and Christ-like consideration
shown US when our mother was so
suddenly called out Of this life, help
US to bear up under the great sorrow
which has befallen US. The radiance
of the hereafter and the blessedness
Of the promises to those who truly
believe are mirrored unto US in what
was said and done in our great be-
reavement. We are deeply thankful
May God bless one and all.
Very sincerely,

GRENADA LOSES
OPENING GAME

On Wednesday afternoon on the
| local grounds the Grenada Baseball
! Team was defeated in the opening
game OF the season by Winona. the
score being 5 to +. The game was
called at $3.50 o'clock and Grenada
took the field in the first half of the
first. WinOna was retired scoreless
and its half of this inning the home
bows brought two men over the plate.
taking the lead but only for a short
while. Winona tied the score in the
third and added one more tally in
the fourth and held its lead through
out the remainder of the game. Gre
NADIA threatened to overcome this
lead in both the eighth and ninth in
nings but was unsuccessful. The To-
cal team played a mighty good game
considering the amount of practice
that it has had and with little more
practice and the encouragement and
support of the fans, Grenada will
have first-class baseball nine. The
attendance at the game Wednesday
was larger than at any game in the
past few years.

GRENADA HIGH SCHOOL TEAM
ADDS TWO MORE VICTORIES
Grenada In Line Fer The Char,rion
ship of North Miss. at The State
High School Meet at University

On Thursday and Friday of last
week the Grenada High School Base
ball Team added two more victories
to its credit when it defeated the Ok
ford High School in two closely con-
tested games on the high school
grounds The first game was won by
the score of to and the second
by the score of to /. Grenada took
the lead in both games in the first
few innings and by good playing held
1t. Conrad Beasley started in the
box for Grenada in both of the con-
tests but was relieved in the eighth
inning of the first game and about
the fifth of the second by Sam
Futhey. The credit for both victor
les goes to Beasley who received
most excellent support from his
teammates. These two wins puts
Grenada in line for the championship
of North Mississippi and at the State
High School Meet at the University.
Batesville and Grenada will play a
game to decide which
shall play Tupelo for the champion
ship.

AN ENTERPRISE TO
BE ENCOURAGED
One Million Sweet Potato Plants
Other Plants That Fill Long
Felt Want in Agricultural Life.

The Whitaker Truck and Plant Co.
on the eastern suburbs of Grenada
Is an enterprise that should be en-
couraged because it fills long need
ed want In the agricultural and
economic life of Grenada County. 1t
IS matter of convenience to the
public and serves to encourage truck
ing and other crop diverSifcations.
The Whitaker Truck and Plant Co.
have bedded out 400 bushels of sweet
potatoes of the Nancy Hall. Porto
Rico and Yam varieties. The seed
have been inspected by the proper of
fclafs of the plant board and again
relnSpected, so those who buy from
hem may rest assured that they will
get plant that they will have no
trouble with the authorities in ship
ping from, and that will keep all the
better for home use. Besides pota-
toes. this concern has a big variety
of plants of other kinds. The pro-
prletor, Mr.. Jake Whitaker, is gent
leman worthy of every confidence
and those who write him or who trust
orders to him will find that he will
come up square on every proposition
and that they will be shipped what
they buy. So if one wants sweet
potato plants, egg plants, tomato
plants, cabbage or cOllard plants or
almost any other vegetable plant that
VIII bear transplanting, he needs but
~ W. ite the Whitaker Truck and
Plant CO., and get exactly what he
wants. Another matter that should |
appeal to those Of this i'm
Mediate section, is, that the plants |
IF this concern are "climated." and |
here is not that risk in getting them
hat one runs in getting plants from
he southern part of the state or
rom Georgia or elsewhere.

FAREWELL SERVICE TO PASTOR

The pastors Of the other churches
IN Grenada called in their services
for Sunday night and went to the
First Baptist church to join in the
farewell services to the retiring pas
tor. Rev. A. A. Stanley, who tender
ed his resignation several weeks ago
Short talks were made bv the 9TH
er pastors and everything that trans.
pired was highly complimentary to
Mr.. Stanley. Indeed the services
came near partaking of the nature of
a love feast.
Grenada has the habit of the 9TH
er congregations joining with the
congregation Of the retiring pastor
at the last service. 1t has been done
SO long that it has almost got to be
a custom. 1t is cemmendable and
shows beautiful Christian spirit.

IF A MISTAKE WAS MADE 1T
HAS BEEN CORRECTED

In The Sentinel of last week ap
peared an ad over the name Of the
Grenada County Chamber Of Com.
merce, under the head, Pay up! KeeI
Your Credit Good" 1t appears that
there were some who thought that
the ad should not have appeared as
merce ought to have had nothing to
do with it. These criticisms were
/ made in good faith, no doubt.
The ad was brought to this Office
by Mr.. 3. c. Duncan, one of Grena-
da's leading merchants and one of
her very best and most useful citi-
zens. Mr.. Duncan had consulted a
number of his fellow merchants and
had asked, so this paper is advised,
several members of the Grenada
County Chamber of Commerce about
handling the ad as it was handled and
these gentlemen. The Sentinel under
stands, gave the mater their 0. X.
The position Of these gentlemen in
the Grenada County Chamber Of
Commerce naturally caused Mr.. Dun
ca nto think that it would be perfect
ly satisfactory to have the ad appear
as it did. 1t might be stated that
similar business organizations in 9TH

A COLORED MAN MADE THE
SUPREME SACRIFICE

The Sentinel feels sure that there
are many in Grenada who will sin
cerely sympathize with Rev. H. H.
Buckingham, colored. principal of the
colored school in Grenada, in the
death of his brother, Joshua, which
occurred on the battle line in France.
October 80, 1918, and about which
he only heard of just a few days
ago. 1t is stated that the white peo-
pie of Henderson, Tenn, where
Joshua lived, regarded him as trust
worthy in every way and that he was
a good substantial colored citizen.
His brother here prides himself on
his fathers record for fidelity to the
white people and his then master,
during the Civil War.
