GOLF DREAM ON WANE
Aspirants for British Title
Not Sure Now.
BIZ HENRY ]. FARRELL.

. f11SNh1 De r AfSISE1<l1
New York, April 4.-British boxers
may be an awful bunch as a class;
British tennis players may be a peg
below the American experts; British
runners and rowers may be yards be-
hind Uncle Sans men; but with it
all, John Bull can do one little thing
little better. He can play golf.
Uncle Sam, after a year of remark
able success in international COMPETE
ton has two great ambitions for the
summer, to bring back the interna-
tional polo cup and to win the British
golf championship.
The American polo team has an ex-
cellent chance to bring back the lone
trophy that is being detained in Eng
land but the golf prospects, while the
best in years, are not over assuring.
Last winter such elaborate plans
w~te outlined to go after the British
amateur and open titles that the Brit
ish were alarmed about the impending
fall from a throne that they have
always occupied.
Many of the American plans have
gone astray since, however, due to
the inability of star players to make
the trip over this summer.

JOE EVELYN THOMAS.

The entire community of Leakes-
Vile, Miss, was saddened last Sat-
urday when the news came in that
little Joe Evelyn Thomas, the two
year old daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Joe Thomas had DIED, 10 Mobile
hospital Friday night, May ID, 1921,
at about 10 o'clock. She was there for
the second time for treatment. She
got some better when carried down
there several days before and they
had brough her home. But soon
she began suffering so much that it
was thought best to carry her back.
The end came soon. Her parents
had remained down there as they
feared she could not live many hours
after growing worse so fast. The
remains were brought up via Luce
dale Saturday afternoon and laid to
rest Sunday morning in the Thomas
family graveyard near the Wise
Breland place. where sleep the late
w. W. Thomas and his wife, the
mother and father respectively of
Joe and others of the brothers and
sisters. Twas grief-stricken fam
lily whose keen sorrow awoke the
tender sympathy OF their kindred,
neighbors and friends. The little
girl was beautiful type of blonde
and was such lovely child that not
only the family whom she bound to
her in such close bonds of love. that
all who knew her learned to cherish
her for her many engaging little
ways.
May the Lord comfort the bereft
family as only he can comfort the
heart which mourns for its dead.
She has gone to be with Jesus who
not.only said,
Suffer the little children to come unto
me and forbid them not for OF such is the
kingdom of God"
but it is also written that
He took them up in His arms. put His
hands on them and blessed them
So let US think of it that she is en-
ioying the Savior's tender care in
the realm beyond, wonderful thought
that tits based upon such clear
promise, that fell directly from his
lips who spoke with Divine author
ity.

conditions in our county brought a.
boptb the liquor traffic, conditions
would improve. herein immediately,

experiencing its worst crime wave.
Under the carpet bag regelme we
doubt il crime was as rampant. Ev-
cry homicide investigated by this
body was directly traceable to Ii.
Iquor. We have no doubt that more
perjury was committed before the
Grand Jury about liquor violations
than about all other crimes com
bined. Conditions are deplorable in
this county and 1T is going to take
the united efforts OF all good people
to improve them. Before this term
