BOARD OF TRADE GIVES NEGRO
GATHERING COURTESY OF
COURT HOUSE.
G. NJ REESE OF MERIDIAN, NEGRO EDUCATOR,
MAKES EXCELLENT ADDRESS. AGAINST
SOCIAL EQUALITY.

The Philadelphia Board of Trade,
and Others who attended, enjoyed a
treat at the Court House Monday
evening, when large attendance of
negroes, and humber of white peo-
pie were addressed by G.. M. Reese, a
negro educator of Meridian. 1t was
the regular meeting night OF the
Board of Trade, and the use of the
room was requested by j, NJ. Will
hanson, colored preacher. b e did
not make his appearance. and as a
large crowd of negroes had assembled
G. M. Reese was called upon to fill
the vacancy. His remarks were
pointed, and he kept his audience
thrilled from beginning to end Many
of Neshoba Counts white citizens
say it was the finest thing they had
heard in years.
The speaker gave the negroes
straight from the sbowlder message.
He drove one truth home after an
other, and was applauded from both
sides of the house. He admonished
his negroes not to steal. He told them
they did not know how, anyway.
When they stole they stole chicken,
or something that was worth so little
that it would not even pay the fine.
He did say that white folks knew
how to steal. When they steal, he
said, they steal something; bank or
a railroad. The biggest thing a negro
steals is a COW. He warned the ne
groes not to listen to agitators from
the north, nor read their stuff He
said that no negro should read what
a man says tn Philadelphia, Penn.
sylvania. that could not make the
same statement right here in Phila.
delphia, Mississippi. He en- ncouraged
them to educate their children, and
for each member of his race to be
proud of his color, and be somebody.
To his mind the vagrancy law should
be strictly enforced; no negro was
worth anything that would not W rk,
and unless he had something in the
bank white folks did not care any
thing for him; that white folks did
not care much for members of their
own color that were not worth srme-
thing. The speaker was bitterly
against any attempt for soci'l equal
ity and stated why. Along with the
speaking their was some old time
singing done The speaking came af-
ter an all day picnic which the ne.
groes had had on Pearl River.

When Failure
Hurts the Most
Why Are Some People Successful and Others Failures?
Why Is One Person Healthy and Happy While
Another Is Sick and Gloomy!

1t is because one has pure. rich,
red blood, while the other has
weak. watery, thin blood which is
loaded with waste products.
The blood is more important
than any of the organs. 1t is
through the blood that the whole
human body is directly or indi-
rectly nourished. The body gets its
nourishment from the intestines
The intestines also contain waste
products-undigest foods. acids.
gases and refuse. which sometimes
get in the blood. .
Don't clog the system-clean 1t
out-eliminate the waste products.
Waste matter in the blood causes
people to be thin. pale, and weak.
1t causes pain in the Joints and
muscles-it causes skin trouble,
pimples, bad boils and sores. A
good blood purifier Is needed to
rid the system Of waste products.
