THRIFT AND THOUGHT ARE
INTIMATELY TIED TOGETHER

Thrift and thought are so intimate
" tied together that it IS hard 20 tell
which is more the cause and which IS
more the effect. But since "all things
that are were once but thought no
doubt it is true that Thrift is largely
the effect of Thought.
One writer of prominence has said
think truly and the thought shall
a harvest be-, and of course so good
a harvest is a large part Of Thrift
Take a look at Solomon, Franklin,
Ford, or any man of preeminent thrift
and you will find that though his
wealth may have been an active ad-
iunct to his life his habit Of thought"
was antecedent to his thrift and his
wealth. Who was it said something
like this: Sow a thought. reap an
act; sow an act reap a habit; SOW a
habit, reap a d.stiny?" Any how It
carries the same idea ! am trying to
put over in this-that thought, right
thought, precedes all else. and n a
way is superior to all else. If Our
schools, our homes, u colleges, our
picture shows, our educational IL
fuences implant in our minds poor
thought" these will bear poor fruit
in lack of Thrift. Here is a verse at
tributed to both the Persian Philoso-
ply and to Ella Wheeler Wilcox,
which carries the idea we'll
Il gave a beggar from my little
store of wealth, some gold;
He spent the shining ore, and came
again, and yet again,
Cold and hungry, as before.
l gave a thought, and through this
thought of mine
He found himself, thc man, supreme,
divine,
Fed, clothed, crowned with blessings
manifold
And now he begs no more"
The Gospel of Christianity is a
gospel of prosperity, but he gospel
of Christianity is an appeal TO the
heart, to the sub-cOnsciOus, the source
of all wisdom and wealth.

SCHOOL WEEK IN OCTOBER.

+, w. F. Bond, State Superintendent
of Education, has given out the fol
lowing statement with reference 20
School Week which will be observed
in all counties of the state during
either the first or second week in
October.
In accordance with the suggestion
of the United States Commissioner
nous approval of the County Super
intendents of Education, Better
School Week will be observed this
scholastic year in every county Of
the state, during either TIE first or
second week in October.
During this week ~everybod~ is re
Cuested to give serious thought 20 the
needs of the common schools OF the
state, and therefore are requested 20
meet at places to be designated by a
county committee, for the purpose OF
discussin" with one another pla1.s for
the betterment of educational cOndi-
tions in the county. At al such
meetings there will be speakers who
are able to give the people the nee
essary information, encouragement
and inspiration along educational
lines.
All state and county officials, col
lege presidents and professors, edl-
tors, ministers of the gospel, candi-
dates for office. congressman, district
officers, members of the state depart
ment of education and leading men
and women generally throughout the
state are called upon TO lay aside
nnlI4iDc on1 nfhnr +hSnrc that E1T6h+
stand in the way, and give whatever
Of their time they car during this
week to the encouragement Of educa-
tional matters along ire following
lines:
L All children should be en-
couraged to 90 TO school, and stay IN
school until they finish a least the
high school course.
2. Parents should be encouraged
to provide adequate educational i'd
vantages for their children: lay aside
petty quarrels and ~jealoIsies, and TO
cooperate whole-he&rtedly With the
teachers.
8. Teachers should be encouraged
to either try to make better teachers
of themselves every year, o. get out
of the profession.
Mississippi ranks low educationally
because of the poor attendance Of u
children on the common schools, and
because of the relatively DOOR sup
port given schools in a financial way.
During the last three year,, we have
made more progress than any other
state in the Union, accordr to the
United State Commissioner of Edu-
cation, and it is our .4ope that the
coming session shall be by far the
most successful year educationally in
our history.

WARNS AGAINST
FRUIT TREE AGENTS

Agricultural College, Miss, Aug 25.
1921.
Editor Sentinel:
As usual there are some fruit tree
agents at large over the state who
are selling trees for fall delivery at
absurd and unjust prices, such as
$500 for peach trees. These fellows
are hurting the business Of the re-
liable fruit tree agents and the fruit
INDUSTRY as a whole. Perhaps you
would be interested in publishing a
few facts about the prices of fruit
trees at this time. Through your
County Agent or Home Demonstra-
ton Agent, if YOU have one, your
people can obtain the following fruit
trees delivered at about the prices
given, or less, according 10 amount
of freight charged:
PEACHES: IS to "a inch June
Buds at IL cents each. This is the
size which gives the best satisfaction.
2 TO 3 feet trees can be bought for
IA cents.
APPLES: 2 to 8 feet trees at Is
cents, and 3 to 4 feet trees at 20
cents. The smaller size is best for
commercial planting.
PEARS: = to 8 feet trees at 25
cents, and s TO 4 feet trees at 80
cents.
GRAPES: l wear olds at Is cents,
2 year Odds at % cents.
PECANS: 8 to { feet trees at so
cents.
STRAWBERRIES: at $3.50 per
thousand.
These trees, Of course. come from
reliable nurseries only and from nur
series accredited by the Mississippi
State Plant Board.
The honest nursery agent asks no
more than a fair profit, to which he
most assuredlv is entitled. The prices

Bonds Advance,
But Stocks Are
Pushed. Lower
Further Confidence Shown
in Future of Investment
Values; Harding's Rail
NJ e age Is Discounted

Further public confidence in the fu-
ture of investment values was revealed
yesterday in the continued upward
movement Of bond quotations. Not
only are new Industrial, public utility
and municipal offerings quickly taken,
but the inquiry for old issues, listed
and unlisted, persists. The lowering of
the discount rates of central banks,
followed by an easement of rates on
acceptances and on time loans against
Stock Exchange collateral, has given
impetus to the impulses leading to pur-
chases and bond houses are fat-foot-
edly informing their customers that, in
their opinion, present prices are cheaper
than will prevail in the future. All this
reflects in steady, persistent, dis
eliminating demand for bonds.
Meantime, the great legions of out
siders who purchase securities are re-
naming adamant to trades in specu-
lative stocks. At the posts where
stocks are dealt in return to the in
tensitied activity of last week marked
loss of the slight increase in business
Monday. The market yesterday was
again largely in the hands of profess
/ sional spectators and irregularity of
prices prevailed.
A succession of days of rallies invited
short selling, particularly among in
dustrial stocks. In the budget of sup
porting news for bear tactics were the
passing of the dividend on Pure Oil
and Colorado Fuel and Iron and the
unfavorable earnings statement of the
Central Leather Company. To offset
this was President Hardings address
on the railroad situation, outlining
plans which are likely not only to sig
nalize the turning Of the corner for
the railroads, but also to help indus
try generally through stimulating rail-
road buying and enabling the roads to
pay their bills on accounts already due.
The Presidents address, however, was
ignored in the stock market, as it had
been discounted. There was little in
the program announced which had not
already trickled out. The Steel Cor
porations quarterly report of earnings,
which came out after the market closed,
was less unfavorable than expected.
Moreover, reports of June earnings of
the carriers tell the story of substan-
tial Improvement as result of curtail-
ment of expenditure before the wage
cuts became effective.
Dizziness characterized decline. Z,
foreign exchange, which rallied after
carly easiness. Cotton quotations, as a
result of slump on unfavorable trade
forecasts from Manchester received in
the last half hour of trading, were
slightly weaker, but wheat prices, which
fluctuated widely, were firm at the
close.

Weakness in Central Leather

The disappointing character of the
June quarterly earnings statement OF
the Central Leather Company, issued
about noon yesterday, was forecast in
offerings of this stock in the first two
hours. Apparently some of those who
had accumulated holdings on pros
poets of an improvement in the leather
situation in the last three months
liquidated when they received further
information of what the figures would
show. The deficit of 1924, 1872 after
charges and taxes came as a surprise
to many who had no accurate informa-
ton on the company's condition. 1t
was pointed out, after the figures were
known, that the deficit for the first
quarter of S3,951, 900 included an in
ventory write-off of S2,5O0,OOO, making
the deficit from operations of $780,
600 more nearly comparable to the
$6,264,192 of the second quarter, for
leather prices are slightly higher now
than three months ago. The fact that
inventories of Central Leather are
carried at "cost or market, whichever
is less" however, prevented the com
pany from rejecting the increase in
price, if any, of its inventory holdings.
The rule which requires marking down
cost figures to market values does not
surplus at the beginning of 1920 of
330,5O9,000 had dwindled at the end of
the March quarter this year to S223,-
600, and at the end of June there was
dehclt OF more than 100000.
