Numbers OF This Paper.
/ The Dispatch appreciates more
than words can tell, the many
kind words expressed in connection
with the publication Of the Daily Dis
patch during Centennial week Notes,
letters, kilograms, telephone calls and
personal expressions of commendation
have beel received, all Of which are
treasured by US One Of our highly
esteemed lady readers telephoned yes
tcrday morning to say how much she
enjoyed reading the Daily Dispatch
during the Centennial, and how she
missed it this week She said going
out each evening to pick up her copy
from the lawn made her think she was
living in a real city.
The Dispatch office is fully equipped
for the printing Of daily newspaper,
and we hope some day TO be in a posi-
ton to Print one. However we can
not see oar way clear just now, mas
much as it would add approximately
twenty-five dollars a day to our ex-
penses. In the interim, however, we
will continue, as heretofore, to publish
the best semi-weekly newspaper in
Mississippi, a paper that now enjoys
the confidence Of the people to the
fullest extent and that is the most
widely circulated newspaper nj Mis-
sissippi, north Of Meridian, Jackson
and Vicksburg.
Co-Opcration.
at must have required lot Of
work on your part to get out a paper
every day" remarked one Of our fore
most citizens.
1t did require work, constant exer-
tion, but There is no excellence with
out great labor The Dispatch did
not grow into greatness by accident,
but the midnight oil' that Mr.. Percy
w. Maer burned in the years that are
gone is reflected today in the paper
built upon his genius and his toll.
The Daily Dispatch was made pos
sible by cooperation. The business
men advertised in il; they furnished
the "sinews of war" All the workers
in the office labored early and late
that the paper might get out early
and not be late. Inasmuch as a mod
est violet does the living a greater
service than a rose garden does the
dead, we want TO bestow a word Of
praise upon our staff and force. Tol'
their uutiring efforts, more than to
any other one thing, the success Of
the daily is due.
They are:
Mrs. r. II. Scarcy, Society Editor.
Mr.. Percy W. Maer, City Reporter.
Miss Eloise Roper, Stenographcr.
Mr.. Luther b. Gordon, Linotype
Operator and Duplex Pressman.
Mr.. p. b Allen, Makeup and Ad-
man.
Mr. d. Il. Pomeroy, job Printer and

Grateful To An. I.
To our staff and our force. TO our
advertisers, to all who bought papers,
10 those who brought or telephoned
tens Of interest to the office, 10 all
who helped US by wishing US success,
ge give heartfelt thanks.
