Last Thursday was a great day at
Rural HILL Our Brunswick stew and
barbecue was a success in every sense
of the word We noticed Mr.. lines,
Mr.. McClanahan, Mr.. Pickett, Prof
Joe Cook, and nr. Franks were some
of our noted visitors, also our next
Governor of Mississippi, Hon. II. l..
Whitfield, who gave us very inter-
esting talk for the benefit of the
young people and Ithhk the old
people come in for a good share also.
We promised Mr.. lines to see that he
and his friends got dinner, but after
watching them from a short distance
We decided to look after our cwn in
terests. If every body was going to
eat like those fellows from town we
knew we had better look out for our
selves. We noticed that everyone had
plenty and lots of the meat was sold
to the highest bidder DR. Franks
also gave us quite an interesting talk,
and offered us his services at any
time, an offer we appreciated very
much, and We may call on Brother
Franks some time soon.
Last Wednesday was also a great
event in the history Of Rural Hin when
Messrs. Stanley, Calhoun, Ellis and
Broome made their appearance at our
school house for the purpose Of ex-
planning fully our public school situa-
ton. Prof Stanley led the speakers
and ] think it was the best speech
ever heard Mr. Stanley make. While
his speech was not over an hour long
he was master Of his subject and his
remarks were very convincing. Mr.
Stanley was followed by Mr.. Cal
houn who is State Rural School Sup
ervisor and from him we learned Of
the national and international repu-
tation Of Rural Hill We knew we
were pretty big, but We did not know
we were quite so large. He told US

CALEDONIA DEPARTMENT
By DIR. EMMETT JAMESON.

There was quite an enthusiastic
consolidated school rally at the Gale
donia High school building on las
Friday afternoon. The meeting wa!
very ably presided over by Prof. f. A
Stanley, county superintendent of edu
cation. After a short well chosen
address he introduced Prof. j. t. Cal
houn, state superintendent of educa-
ton, who spoke at length on the rural
one and two teacher schools and the
need Of consolidating the rural schools
of each district IN the county. He
stated that there was more than five
hundred consolidated schools being
successfully taught in the state.
These schools have been a success
wherever they have been tried, not
one asking to go back to the old sys-
tenn of the one and two-teacher school.
He also stated that Caledonia was the
most ideal place for fine consolidated
school that he had ever seen.
Prof. Ellis, superintendent Of the
city schools Of Columbus, was next in
troduced. He is fine speaker and a
live Wire on education. He stressed
the vital importance of giving our
children an education. He said that we
were all one people IN common in
terests and one people in heart as
united community. His speech and
also Prof. Calhoun's was enjoyed and
highly appreciated by all who heard
them.
Prof. E. T. Lawrence, who was at
one time principal of this school and
also a former student was called. He
made q very able and appropriate
speech. He spoke of the lack of in
terest n education, taken by the peo-
pie as whole in the great work.
The meeting closed with a short
talk by Prof. Stanley, who gave some
valuable information of how to get
the people interested in this great
educational work. The result of this
meeting was the adding OF three other
schools to Caledonia, which makes in
all five schools to consolidate with
Caledonia with others to come later.
We were glad to see so many ladies
out at the school meeting Tuesday
taking part in the school work. When
the ladies get interested in any move
ment for the upbuilding of the COM
munity something is sure to be ac-
complished. Our ladies are better !

 Miss Wallace laid down three rules to which she adheres They are: '-F'irst, pocket your false pride Be proud only of being able to pay your own way
