CANDIDATE FOR
CONSTABLE AND
NOT FOR JUSTICE

1t was inadvertently stated in the
Dispatch Sunday that Mr.. w. NJ.
Dowdle was a candidate for the posi-
ton of Justice of the Peace in the
special election which will be held on
March 8.
AS a matter of fact Mr.. Dowdle is
a candidate for Constable, and we
hasten to make this correction in
justice to Mr.. Dowdle. The error or
oversight came under the pressure Of
the crowding moments just before
press time Saturday afternoon, and
the dead line" was almost up when
we wrote the article.
Mr.. Dowdle says he is not a can
didate for Justice, but that he is very
much a candidate for Constable.

KING WINTER
SLOWS UP THE
CLEANUP DRIVE

The cleanup campaign is in the
midst of its second week. The cold
and inclement weather has delayed
the work with MANY householders,
but the weather is admirable for
trimming trees, as it checks the flow
of the sap. In trimming trees, the
committee for over looking the work
wish to suggest that many trees may
be improved and the streets beautifi-
ed if the limbs could be trimmed so
as to cultivate an archway over the
streets. The planting and training of
wisteria vines, Dorothy Perkins
roses and setting out Grape myrtle
shrubs are also recommended as adj
juncts to artistic effect, besides adj
aptable to southern climatic conditi-
ons.

RAISE FUNDS FOR
SCHOOL LIBRARY
Students TO Put On Intensive
Drive Friday for Franklin
Library.

The pupils of Franklin School will
launch their campaign for a school
library next Friday, and their efforts
should meet with generous and liber-
al response.
The possession of a school library
should be as necessary as the fixtures
of the school. Modern approved ideas
of school equipment include all kinds
of apparatus for physical training and
development and for wholesome
amusement. A library in the school
is of such incalculable and permanent
benefit in moral training as well as
in mental, that it should receive as
much consideration as gymnastic
equipment, which given only physical
training.
The influence welded by the read
ing of good books is no transient inn
preston cast aside with the play
things of the hour, and forgotten in
manhood prime. The sentiment and
information, transmitted through an
interesting book, will linger in the
retentitive formative mind of the
child as long as reason is enthroned
in the mind Of the adult man or wo-
man.
The school library, the goal to-
ward which tie Franklin pupils are
now working, will contain more than
mere interesting books for leisure
reading. The pupils desire, and need
and the need is imperative, a library
Of reference books. The problem of
the teacher, to open up every avenue
of progress to the mental advance
ment of the pupil, is seriously handi-
capped if she lacks the books of re-
ference to drive home the facts as
serted in the books OF instruction.

FORD DEALERS
IN SESSION HERE
Dealers of N. E. Mississippi Met
in Columbus Past Week.
Optimism Prevails.

Twenty Ford dealers in the terri
tory Of northeast Mississippi assem-
bled N Columbus for a conference the
past week, and a note of optimism
prevailed throughout the conference.
Meetings were held at the office
of the Columbus Auto Company on
College street and Mr.. Sam Kaye, Jr.,
Columbus Ford Representative, was
host to the visitors.
1t was a get-together meeting of
the Ford representatives for the pur-
pose Of talking over conditions as
they affect the distribution of Ford
cars.
1t was the concensus of opinion
among the dealers, an opinion based
on survey of the entire territory,
that with the heavy demand for Ford
cars this spring there woult. Je some
difficulty later on in receiving cars
in sufficient numbers to supply the
demands.
While there will be no trouble in
eventually supplying the demand, it
was pointed out that there may be
serious delays in delivery of cars.
Therefore, orders placed early in the
season will have preferred attention
as all orders will be filled in the or
der in which they are received.

Globe & Rutgers Will
Not Renew Licenses
Crisis In Insurance Cases EXPECTED
March LIST.

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 1.-Two i'm
'portant Developments occurred today
in the insurance situation, one of
which will vitality affect the ques-
ton of insurance later on. 1t is that
the Globe & Rutgers group of COM
panies will not renew their licenses,
which expire Feb. %. The other is
that the garnisheed insurance agents,
acting under advice of the attorneys
for the defendant companies, will not
pay over any funds to the receivers
appointed recently by Chancellor
Stricken.
The Globe & Rutgers Companies
are: Globe & Rutgers, North River,
Stuyvesant and United States. 1t is
also understood thrt The withdrawal
of these companies will take with
them the Hawkeye Security. itself a
$2,000,000 concern, and capable Of
handling much business
This announcement Of the Globe &
Rutgers Companies means that the
insurance crisis will be reached after
March /, when only three small COM
panies will be left in the state, and
left practically without reinsuring fa-
cilities. None of these will be able to
handle the larger lines of business.
For example, here in Jackson there is
an establishment which carries $780,
900 of insurance, all of which will
expire in March. There will be no
possibility of getting this insurance
in the State of Mississippi.
Another complication is that after
Feb. % there will not be an agent of
any Of the SO companies sued who
will be authorized to make endorse
ments of policies, transfers and the
like, necessary in various commercial
such as large sales of
lumber.
The pinch will commence in March
and will tighten up month by month
as policies expire. The refusal of the
agents to deliver funds to the receiv-
ers will, Of course, result in more
suits to compel them to do so. The
appeal which the chancellor granted
the defendants from the receivership
order was without supercedeas, but
the position of the attorneys for the
defense is that the receiversnip order
was improperly allowed and that the
agents have made sufficient answer.

A Certain Market
Always Ready For
Dairy Products
BY William A. Hall, Manager Inter
national Sugar Feed Company,
Memphis, Tennessee.

Glass may be made to look like
diamonds, but real diamonds are never
made of glass.
Oleomargarine may be made to look
like butter, but at best it is only an
imitation. Oleomargarine has food
value, yet it is not butter, and should
neither be made to look like butter
nor sold as such.
Butterine is only an imitation of
real butter. Nut margarine, or nut
butter, is not butter. Filled cheese is
false cheese.
Pure dairy products have a food
value particularly and peculiarly their
own. They contain the life giving
yitamines not found in animal Or veg
etable fats.
For the growing child, the imita-
tion cannot in any sense be made to
take the place of the real article. In
fact, for any class Of human beings
there is not and cannot be satisfac-
tory substitute for any dairy product.
And because this is true, there will
always be ready and profitable
market for dairy products. And, as
the best of any commodity commands
the highest price, it behooves dairy
men everywhere ever to strive to pro-
duce the very best that it is possible
to produce.

COUNCIL MAKES
PROVISION TO
BEAUTIFY SITS.
Appropriates 5000 To BE Used To
Bcautify Parkway And Bridge APP
proachcs On Main Street.

At it's last meeting, the city council
appropriated 5000, the amount re-
ourcd by the civic committee of the
Woman's Club for the development.
of the parkway and bridge approaches
on Main street.
The subcommittee from the civic
committee, appointed especially to
have charge of these two ornamental
spots in the city's business section,
is composed of Mrs. W. W.~Durden,
chairman; Mrs. d. F. Robertson,
Mrs, E. d. Herring and Miss Anna
Banks.
These ladies are all acknowledged
authorities in decorative and artistic
matters. However, they feel that the
adornment of a permanent city orna-
ment, which will be of lasting beauty
for the generations, should be en-
trusted to an educational horticul-
turist.
They are now in correspondence
with landscape gardeners, so that,
when the city finishes it's grading, the
work of decoration may be commenc-
ed early enough for the people Of the
city to enjoy the restful beauty of an
uptown parkway this summer.
The civic committee expressed its
sincere appreciation Of the councils
generosity, and assured the city faith
ers that the money would be spent
judicuously.
