GETTING THEs5EsT OF THE LAND.
LORD.

In Northern India there is a wild
tribe called the Santals, who love to
wander in the wilderness and pay trib-
ute to no man. Their missionary, Rev.
L. Mellera, of Dhanjuri, Dinajpur Dis
trict, Krishnagar Diocese. says of
them:
"The Santals are noble folk. To
begin with, they we're never merged
into the Aryans when that redoubtabEe
race. conquered India, and ever sincd,
the tribe have lived in the primevaf
forest, for which they have, 1t seems,
a passion; leopards, bears, and snakes
are their nearest neighbors.
"One of the great objections to civ.
ilization that the Santal pagan cherish
is an intense dislike to paying rent.
They will settle for year or so in I'M
cultivated land and till it most care.
fully, but directly they are dunned for
the rent they migrate and begin again,
rather than pay.
Obviously the Santal settlements
are not the landlords paradise. and n
would be small use raising the rent,
there, since the Santals argue IL the
wild beasts of the jungle pay none
why should the human jewellers there.

NATIVE SISTERS IN ocEANIcA.

1t is said that the test of every fer
vent Catholic community is the preva-
lence of vocations for the religious
state. Religious vocation is the flower
which buds forth from the stalk of
Love Divine-the outcome of the
growth of fervent Catholicity.
Most blessed, therefore, is the mis-
sion in New Britain, Oceanica, for it
has possessed native sisterhood
since 1912, and it is called Daughters
of Mary Immaculate" -.
. Under the care of the devoted
Sisters of Our Lady of the Sacred
Heart, to whom the training of these
Sisters has been intrusted, they are
formed according to the spirit and
tradition of the religious life approved
by the Catholic Church, and now
number twenty-five.
Z. Since. their rule prohibits the native
Sisters from nourishing themselves
with the food adopted by Europeans,
Hey live solely on the products of
their native soil. To help them-to live
the, natives round about, from time to
time, bring them the products of their
plantations. However, for the most
part, the Sisters depend upon their
own. efforts at cultivation for their
food and that of the children in their
charge.
Although the Sisters provide for
their own support as regards food,
nevertheless they depend upon the
offerings of charity for their religious
habits and the clothes wherewith to
cover the nakedness of the children
under their care.
Let us not forget these humble.
souls, but newly come into the Lords
vineyard, when sharing our wealth
with the poor.

Incredibly ferocious were formerly
the natives of some parts of the Vicari-

even now the combined powers of the
government and the priests are re-

Selma Cheese

AS given in special dispatch to
the News day or go ago. the Sci
ma Creamery has now reached
quantity production" on cheese,
turning out ton a day, and the
entire output has been contracted
for by Selma jobbers who are selling
it in competition with the best
cheese from other parts of the coun-
try. Alabama has made a great
stride forward when she COM
mences making cheese on a COM
mercial scale and Selma and it's
progressive business men of the
creamery are to be congratulated.
Birmingham News.
This section of Mississippi is
rapidly forging to the front in the
dairying business. Cattle for beef
and cream have become important
industries in this section. Up to
this time, however. the cream has
been the absorbing idea. This has
proven profitable to our people
also. Those who have intelligently
cared for cows have found the
cream end of the business re-
numeratiye. Beyond cream, how
ever. lies the larger field of cheese
making which comprehends the
vast industry of converting cream
into a product not so perishable as
butter and having greater marketing
possibilities. A cheese factory in Alb
erdeen would stimulate the cattle
business and in negligible degree
conflict with the already large
creamery industries of the county.

Chickasaw Board Reduces Salaries

The board of supervisors of Chick
asaw are exhibiting commendable
cooperation with the people of that
county in effort to reduce county
government expenses by first reduc-
ing salaries of officials. and second.
by inviting the people into consul
tation to make suggestions as to
the county tax levy, looking to
abridged expenditures for roads and
support of the agricultural school.
TIE following is reprinted from the
Houston Times-Post
The board of supervisors at the
August meeting are considering the
assessment roll and equalizing same.
They and the tax assessor together
have already reduced the assessment
about one million dollars. This will
result in a material reduction of the
salaries of the officers of the county
on account of the reduction in the
assessment changing Chickasaw
county from third class to fourth
Changes in salaries will be from
and after August 1st. 1921.
The board of supervisors have
thus voluntarily reduced the salaries
OF county officers about "a 500, and
they state that they think they can
make a Very material reduction in
the tax levy. and would be glad to
have the tax payers meet them on
the first Monday in November. when
the levy is made. and make any
suggestions they may desire, either
in mass meeting or otherwise. as to
reduction of the levy They would
especially like to know the wishes
of the tax payers as to the amount
of road levy and for the agricultural
school. and any other suggestions
the people may desire to make"

Women, Don't Cheat Yourselves

Miss Sara l.. Buchanan, attorney.
at-law, of Bonneville, Miss, gives
sensible advice to women eligible
to register in Prentiss county. The
adSice comes from woman to
women. and when woman advises
women, it is time for all women to
sit up and take notice We COM
mend what Miss Buchanan says to
the women of Monroe county:
Every woman in Prentiss county.
twenty-one years of age or over,
who has lived in her particular
voting precinct one year, is eligible
to register as a legal voter of the
county.
Every woman twenty-one years
of age and under sixty years of age
must pay poll tax of $500 year.
whether or not she registers as a
voter. This tax will be payable be-
fore February /. 1922 for this year.
ii it is not paid, then the delin-
quent tax list will have some more
names on it. No woman wants to
be a delinquent.
Now. if our women are going to
pay their poll taxes, and they will,
why not register as a qualified cleo
tor? You will not have to vote af-
ter registering. if you do not want
to vote. But there will come a
time when you will want to vote
and cannot do it. for the reason
that you have not registered, or did
not register in time.
Women. you can come to the
court house and register at any
time now with the circuit clerk.
Many women are not registering
because they fear they might have
to serve on jury. Under the stat
ute. as it now stands, no woman is
eligible to serve on jury. so don't
let that worry you. Personally, |
think We women will get to the
point where we will see that il il
our duty to serve on the iuries of
the county and render service
that is valuable TO the state and
county.
Another thing. next year is cleo
ton year for several ~state Offices of
high Importance. You must be-
registered four months before a.
regular election. either state or city
elections. in order to vote legally in
that election. Don't wait until the
last minute to register and then
feel that you have been wronged
because YOU have not been allowed
to vote or have your vote thrown
out because it is illegally cast.
