RAILROAD FROM HERE
WEST IN PROSPECT
Representative of The George c
Brown Lumber Company Is
Now On The Ground.

Prospects for a standard guage
railway line running from Calhoun
City to the county lire west of here
seems to be taking on a somewhat
| definite form. The road will be
built by the George c. Brown Lumber
| Co., with headquarters at Memphis
Tenn, into the heart Of their timber
holdings known as the Provine Tract
II present speculation in regard to
this development cones out as ex-
pected.
Absolutely nothing definitely can
be learned in regard to the PROPOSE
tior. Mr.. Lewis, representative Of
the company, has been III the viciri-
ty for several weeks ard is said to
be purchasing outright right-of-way
for the track. The route as he has
it outlined in prospect runs from Cal
houn City almost due west as far as
Big creek, going about one mile
south of tina, place, making a turn
further southwark to the northwest
corner Of the Parker place and then
tuning again west for several miles
further into the heart of the belt of
tnIber to the county line
There are several tho usand acres
Of the finest virgin timber in the
country in the Provine tract. The
George c. Brown Lumber Compana
has owned this timber for a number
years and plans for working it into
the raerchantable product have been
delayed from time to time. From
outside appearance it seems that now
work of getting out the timber will
really begin soon.
If this is built there is every in
dication that at sometime in the fu-
ture it will be completed to the /. c.,
at Grenada, thus giving this county
an outlet in that direction and bet
ter market facilities.-Dixie (CaI-
houn City, Herald.

THE DEATH OF
MRS. BESSIE RAY

On Wednesday, January 5th, Mrs.
Bessie Ray died al the home Of her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. L. R. Elrnore,
two miles south of Grenada, and her
remains were laid to rest the next
day in Odd Fellows cemetry, this
city, after funeral services conducted
by Rev. j. R. Cunnirgh IN of the
Presbyterian church.
Mrs. Ray had been in low state
of health for nearly three years.
hence her death was not wholly un-
expected, yet her demise leaves lit
tie nine year old daughter without
mother and the hearts of the fond
parents bleeding. She. years ago had
set her house in order for the Mas
ter's call and was ready for the end
winch she met with that serenity and
faith always given to those who have
learned the lesson to Remember thy
Creator in the days of thy youth"

'CREkAD|AN PROMOTED
TO STATE POSITION
DIR. Pope Is Now Assistant Director
For Mississippi of Rural Santa
tion international Health Board

An official announcement was
made few days ago by the State
Board of Health of Dr. P. G.. Pope's
promotion to the place of assistant
director of Mississippi of rural sani-
tation in cooperation with the inter-
national health board Many of DR..
! Pope's friends have known for sew
| eral months that this or a similar
promotion was coming to him, and it
gratifies The Sentinel to give ex-
preston to the pleasure that his
many Grenada and Grenada County
friends feel over his appointment. A
better selection could not have been
made. DR.. Pope is qualified by train
ing and by experience for almost any
duty in connection with his profess
sion. Not only is he skilled in his
profession, but he has breadth and
that abundance of common sense
which equips him for the most deli
cate and trying duties of life. He
came to Grenada about January /,
1920, to direct the health work in
this county and well and wisely did
he perform that service. Many of
the best citizens and largest taxpay-
ers of the county wanted the work
continued for another year, but ow-
ing to the very stringent conditions
of the County's finances, the super
visorssth thought it best to cut off ev-
cry expense possible, otherwise the
work would no doubt have been con-
tinued for another year. However,
it was known by some when the mat
ter of continuing the health work in
this county was up for consideration,
that DR.. Pope would in all probabili-
ty be promoted to a state position
and that another man would succeed
him as director of health in the coun-
~.
1t is not yet definitely determin-
I'd where DR.. Pope will make head
quarters, but is it most probable that
ne will be located here. 1t will be
yery pleasing to Grenadians TO have
Dr.. Pope and his lovely wife and
weet little girl remain with them.

As you know. this project is en- urely too big for any one town to handle, but with all the towns con cerned working together-and our in- terests are identical in this respect we can put it over big and at com paratlNely small cost to each town. The returns in dollars and cents will exceed the returns from any mine or oil well ever discovered, and they will increase as the years go by. As soon as we get our route, which IS the only trans continental one open the entire your around, known through the United States, we have the fight won.
 The Douglas Chamber of Commerce and Mines is calling this meeting because it ought to be called, and no other organization has done it. We have no axe to grind, and will have nothing more to do with the man : agement of the new organization than any other member. We have some very definite ideas on this subject but we want more. We wish you would let us have in advance any ideas you may have that will serve to advance our common purpose.
 We expect to finish the business sessions Saturday evening and thai night a Mexican dinner will be served in honor of our visitors at the Clut Social in Agua Prieta, the Mexican town adjoining Douglas, which ws believe will bring the day to a very pleasant close. We trust you vii decide to send a good sized delega tion, and will be good enough to in form us at once of your decision.
