Tens OF thousands of Mississippi
men and women who failed to pay
their pol ltax in 1921 will startled
when they read that in order to be-
come qualified electors and to partici-
pate In the primary election for state,
legislative and county offices next
year, they must pay $500. That means
$500 for the year 1922, $500 for the
year 1921 which they failed to pay.
and s1.2O damages for failure to so
pay The $500 must be paid on or
before midnight of the first day Of
February. 1923, in order that they may
register, which later must be done
four months before the November
elections OF 1928.

IS STATES, 10 CITIES
ADOPT BOILER CODE
Mechanical Engineers Hope
to Lessen Accidents.

Sixteen States and ten cities have
adopted the boiler code OF the American
Society of Mechanical Engineers, whose
efforts, directed from national head
quarters at 80 West rhirty-ninth street,
aim at regulating conditions which, il is
asserted. already have cost the country
thousands OF lives and millions OF dol
lars.
The States now aligned with the boiler
code committee, as announced yesterday,
arc New York. New Jersey, Pennsyl-
vania, Delaware. Michigan. California,
Missouri, Arkansas, Oregon, Rhode
Island, Wisconsin, Minnesota. Ohio, In
diana, Oklahoma and Maryland. The
cities include Philadelphia Detroit, Kan
sas City, ST. Louis, st. Joseph, Mo. :;
Nashville, Scranton and Seattle
simultaneously with the systematic
activity of the society's boiler code COM
mittee, which is composed OF leading
engineers and sits regularly in New Yask
and other cities. the National Board OF
Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors
Is carrying on q nation wide campaign
to eliminate the danger OF boiler explo-
sions. The perils secreted IN steam
boilers, the engineers say, are greater
than those inherent in dynamite and
other high explosives.
Standards OF design and construction
az laid down by the committee and ad-
ministrative control involving interstate
inspection are. II is stated, reforms
which are vital. Not the least among
the advantages. II Is contended, is the

SPECIAL TRAIN
CARRIES 81 To
S.A. TENT CITY
Children Depart In Great GIse
For Two Weeks Outing in
Maryland. .


This was the childish and Joyous
shout sent up by group Of littlo
children as they stood and waited
in front OF the Salvation hut at TT
| street southeast yesterday with
their faces, washed and their best
dresses on. Captain MCGEE in the
salvation Army uniform had Just
asked them II they were all ready.
A few minutes later fifty-four
children were scrambling for the
seat next to the window down at the
Union Station where the kiddies
special was waiting to carry them
off into the blue hills Of Maryland
to the Salvation Fresh Air Camp at
Patuxent, Md. and a real summer
vacation.
The children had been instructed
to meet at the familiar Salvation hut
on I street and to bring their suit
cases. That's all that was necessary.
The Salvation Army officials promis.
ed to perform the stunt that would
transport the kiddies into vacation
land. When Capt. Irene Hopkins
had asked the boys to look in the hut
to see II anybody was left, nalf the
contingent was already up to the
street corner.
When little wealthy boys and girls
60 away on their summer vacation
with their parents. 1t 10 taken as q
matter OF course. Their mothers
close the town house every summer.
Like these children the little group
Of fifty.four that boarded the kids
special yesterday morning, asked no
questions. They were only told to
be ready. 1t was Just q vacation
that the Salvation Army gave kiddies
every year. and no other thought
occurred to them. The train left at
1910. o'clock.
Vacation land to these kiddies win
be plenty Of fresh air and food which
has been prepared for them at the
camp at Patuxent. Swings. sec
saws. and nice tents that won't fall
down like those on the back lot, are
awaited.
Aunt Mary Billings" was there
to receive them with her smile and
her reputation for corn cakes hot
off the griddle. She has charge OF
the camp, which will be operated all
summer TO receive children In
parties. The group that went yes
terday was the first In another
two weeks a party OF seventy-five
children will be sent out.
The camp 10 a 25-acre tract lsid
out like a tented city. A Main
street" has been built. The tents
are arranged into a long oval around
the only really important building In
the place. the mess hall. Six kiddies
will sleep in one tent. The mess
hall will accommodate seventy.five.
Next to the mess hall in import
ance comes the big swimming pool,
at least the boys think so. The de.
sire to jump into one Of the city
fountains on a hot day will now be
realized by the boys, and there won't
be any cop to object, either.
Arrangements have also been
made for mothers who can spare the
time to accompany the children to
the camp. Yesterday four mothers
went and they will equally enjoy
the pleasures Of camp life. The chill
dren will stay two weeks.
