GREAT HOMAGE.
''Was a Sir GaIahad in Quest of the
Holy Grail. But He Was One
Who Walked Alone" Says
This Great Journal.

The Los Angeles (CaI.) Times of
last Sunday contains the following
remarkable editorial, headed "One
of the Great" which is herewith re
produced in full and as follows.
The pathos of the Inauguration was
furnished by the retiring President,
who glided out Of the picture as a
ghostIy shadow OF greatness that
once encompassed the earth.
Two years ago he seemed in the
prime of physical manhood and his
intellect was the dominant one OF
ChrstendOm.
Today he appeared as little less
than a broken and battered hulk on
the shores Of eternity. Weak and
wan and wasted, he contributed
spectacle that inspired only sympa-
thy. Even his enemies could lndl-
cate no rancor. But though physlc
ally broken, the mind, is still alert
and mastertul. Perhaps it will be-
come more mellow and serene now
that the scepter of authority has
passed. Immediate history Will do
Woodrow Wilson the justice of en-
doWIng hun with a passion for the
highest IdealS-to which he gave the
most unselfish devotion. He was a
Sir Galahad IN quest of the Holy
Grail. But he was one who walked
alone. that he failed in the fruItIOn
Of his hopes was due to his neglect
to secure the enthusiastic cO-Opera-
ton OF his fellows. He would not
only direct the orchestra, but ne
would play all the Instruments. He
trusted no judgment but his own and
1t was but natural that he should
himself be mIsJudged. A Crusader
should not journey single-handed.
The ultimate judgment OF the world
will cOncede Woodrow Wilson to be
one of its lew great men, but he Will
be shown upon a mountain top-and
alone.
Thus one of Americas great men
passes from the Presidency into prl-
yate ilfe. And while we are Welcom-
ing his successor IN that nigh office,
it is with admiration, respect and
sympathy that The Times bids good
bye to Woodrow Wilson. the chief
tam. With Whole-hearted sincerity,
we say, God be with HIM"
For eight years Woodrow Wilson
has piloted the great ship, America,
and for five OF them through the
stormiest waters it has ever been
called upon TO sail. For a brief per-
lod he was the dominating figure of
the world ana honorably stood for
all that was best and noblest in

BOURGEOIS-STOCKSTILL.
Young Bay St. Louisian n
Marries Charming and Accom-
plished Young Lady From
Adjoining County.

A wedding of considerable local
interest was celebrated at Picayune,
in the adjoining county of Pearl
River, Tuesday afternoon. when Miss
Bonnie Lucille Stockstill of that town
became the bride of Daniel E. Bour-
geois, of Bay St. Louis, in the pres
ence of only few immediate mem
bers of the contracting parties, the
wedding a quiet one.
The ceremony took place at the
residence of the brides sister, Mrs.
George Circe, Rev. 0. n. Harrington,
pastor of the First Baptist Church,
of Picayune, officiating. The atten-
dants were Mrs. Swoboda, a sister of
the bride and Mr.. Douglas Bourgeois,
brother of the groom.
After the ceremony and the bridal
couple had received the good wishes
and congratulations from those pres
ent, Mr. and Mrs. Bourgeois left for
Bay St. Louis, where little Glove
nest" cozily and charmingly furnish
ed awaited their coming, and, where
in Main street. after the 18th they
will be "at home" to their friends.
The bride is an accomplished and
most charming young woman, a
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Monroe
Stockstill, prominent residents of
Pearl River county, and is much be-
loved by all who know her for her
many qualities both of the mind and
heart.
The groom is the second son of Mr..
and Mrs. w. L. Bourgeois, we'll known
and highly esteemed residents of
Bay St. Louis. Although quite a
young man, by means of his ability
and application he has won such an
enviable position in the business
world as to bespeak for him a future
of much success. He is the assistant
cashier of the Merchants Bank of
this city, in which institution his SER
vices are held in high regard. He is
well known and has the confidence
and esteem of all who know him.
The couple is an ideal one and If
the many wishes of their friends and
acquaintance carry they are going
to be very happy. Many presents
sent in advance of the happy event
is fair index of their popularity and
the high regard in which both are
held by those who know them. The
Echo adds it's best wishes and extends
its heartiest Fluctuations on the oc-
casion of SO auspicious an event.

To find ourselves dishonorable

Men at some time are masters of
their fate.
The fault, dear Brutus, is not in
our stars,
But in ourselves. that we are under
ings."
And so, like Caesar: ''The noble
Brutus hath told you that Caesar was
ambitious; if so it was a grievous
fault, and grievously hath Caesar
paid for it But yesterday,
the word of Caesar might have stood
against the world" But now he lies
there stabbed through the heart, even
as Caesar by his Senators-and like
Caesar he has left noble will, not
parks and public grounds. but a no.
BILE heritage of an idealism that, God
grant, his country may never lose or
basely squander.
Judge, oh, ye gods, how dearly
Caesar loved US.
Oh, what a fall was there. my coun-
trymen!
Then l and you, and all of US fell
down,
Whilst bloody treason flourished over
u.s."
And so, as President Wilson steps
down to resume his place amongst US
as an ordinary citizen. The Times
whole-heartedly pays him tribute, as
one of Americas great men.
And his soul goes marching on.

PACKING OUR OWN.

The late Mr.. Heidenheim of Biloxi,
who was a shrewd business man,
few years ago attempted to get into
full swing the packing Of vegetables
in his Biloxi packing plant during
the hiatus between fishing seasons;
and to this end he made contracts
with local farmers to plant certain
vegetables selected by him for this
purpose. If all the packers would
take this up anew, it would be a
great aid to the uncertain farming
conditions and to laborers who have
idle time on their hands during July
and August, at least. The value of
this movement to the coast communi-
ties would be incalculable-not only
in the seasons financial returns, but
in the industrial morale it would be
steady and the encouragement of la

A party who had managed success
fully one of the big coast hotels for
number of years, was visitor to
Bay st. Louis during the week with
view of either buying or renting
one of the local hotels. He was
backed by the opinion that Bay St.
Louis is the ideal summer resort and
by supplying amusements and attrac
tions that would keep the visitors
here after the first few days follow
ing arrival the hotel could be kept to
overfowing and winter visitors would
follow in turn of the seasons. He
considered the Bay st. Louis ferry
an important connection to the fu-
ture of this part of the Coast and
was in main the suggestion of his
coming here. 1t is a fact that visi-
tors must be amused or entertained
after their arrival. The scenery and
climate are very attractive but one
seems to soon tire of natures abun-
dance. Nature has done much for
the Coast country while man seems
to have done little or nothing

The very beautiful and laudatory
editorial of the Los Angeles Cali
fornia) Times, of March 9Th. ordinar-
lily bitter toward Wilson, and repro
duced in its entirety elsewhere in
The Echo, while deserved, in a great
measure is surprising coming from
that Republican journal. However,
the Times has been in favor of lea
que of nations. 1t was one of the
hobbies of General Otis, the owner of
the paper, before his death. 1t ap-
pears he had worked out at length
some kind of league of nations pro-
position long before Woodrow Wilson
was elected president. When that
paper saw the foremost leaders of
the world working toward that end
the paper cried out at once that Gen
eral Otis foresight was now being
acknowledged. 1t must have been
rather bitter pill for the Times when
President Harding. announced he
was opposed to the league. 1t was
thought by some that the Times
would bolt the party. But water
can't run up the hill.

railroad workers will be cut down,
just as corporations and heads Of
large industries have been forced to
do in order to save their business
Railroads all over the country report
travel at low ebb, and the cause is
due to the fact of high fares. The
cost Of long trip is well nigh pro-
hibitive to the average purse. 1t ap-
pears that to get back to normal the
cut will have to be at the foundation
of the structure-labor, and the la
