you've been here full eight year,
And labor troubles always seemed
near:
You helped raise wages, and gave no
lief
Which you must know is 'gainst cur
belief.
''rhe eight hour law you brought
Which made the big man pull and
pout
To think he had lost his say
As TO how much work and how much
pay.

Wen shut down mills and cut off
crews
Till We have more men than We can
use.
wen pay less wages TO working

Work longer hours~-not less than
ten.
Wen certainly put them ON the hike
When We pass laws that they can't
strike,
Wilson said. II hope never 90 see
Men bound down whom ! set free
You'd bind men down with fetter and
chain
Who have been free since Father
Abraham's reign.
I'VE remember when from Egypt's
land
Moses lead the Israelite band.
Taking them from Pharaoh's host,
Leading them to the Red Sea Coast

Which was guided by the hand Of

But closed in upon Old pharaoh's
host.
"By inspiration il came about
For me TO lead our people out
From under the load Of Wall Street

Which for fifty years they had tray

I'VE travelled on till we reached the
sea,
When dazzled by gold and panoply,
The people were weary and sat to
rest
Proving unable to stand the test.
Soon they we're lolled into profound
sleep,
And before they crossed the mighty
deep
Up came the guards with stronger
chain
And bound them to Wall Street again.
Four years of poverty lie ahead
We shall hear our children cry for
bread.
But with patience we'll hear IL as be-
foro.
And we'll get their hides in Twenty

Tree seeds br no Means Allke.

Tree seeds vary greatly in the
amount of time they take before they
sprout. Seeds Of the Kentucky coffee
tree must lie in the ground at least
two years before their hard coats are
sufficiently softened TO allow the
sprout TO escape, while cottonwood

SONS OF THE IDLE RICH

Sons of the idle rich, for more than
decade the butt of American sar-
casm, are coming to be viewed in a
clearer perspective.
The latest evidence of modern view
point adopted by the pampered youth
is seen in the Vanderbilt family, "The
Cornelius Vanderbilt Newspaper Ser
vice" having come into being under
the guiding hand of Cornelius Wand
erbilt, Jr.
Young Vanderbilt burst into the
newspaper profession some four years
ago as a reporter on the New York
Herald. On thirty dollar week
salary he rode to business in his high
powered motor car. He tried to be
good fellow and nothing of snob
so it did not take long for the speed
ster- to vanish and for the young mil
lionaire to set aside some af his pre-
conceived notions of the newspaper
profession.
Seemingly the young man has not
prospered under assignment, and
hopes to make better headway under
his own direction, hence we see him
furnishing news to the great metro
politan journals, some of which is
published.
Presumably he has sensed the value
of publicity, if not of propaganda,
and with the Vanderbilt name attach
ed to his enterprise undoubtedly he
will have entire to the inner circles of
finance and industry that should be
productive of much material of pub
lie interest, if it be discreetly written
and the young man display the ability
to sift the wheat from the chaff
Young Vanderbilt has the oppor-
tunity of lifetime for public service
if he can measure up, on the one hand
declining to become the vehicle for
industrial exploitation, and on the
other refraining from too vivid an ex-
preston of the socialistic views that
seem to have tinged his mentality
since he has rubbed elbows with the
world.
When his grandfather lay dying
reporters were turned away from the
Vanderbilt home as annoying pests,
type of life too insignificant to
warrant courteous treatment. Young
Vanderbilt is a reporter. The opera
tions Of the Vanderbilt News Service
will be watched by the public and
newspaper profession with thought
full interest.

RESOLUTION

Whereas the Grand Juries of the
First and Second District Of this
county recommended in their final re-
ports that the books of the county
should be audited and
Whereas, it appears that the
said Grand Juries and the Public are
of the opinion that the Board of Su-
pervisors has the authority to have
the books and accounts of the Coun-
ty audited, and
Whereas this Board desires to clear
up and correct this erroneous opinion
of the Grand Juries and the public.
Now, therefore, be it resolved by
the Board Of Supervisors that this
Board stands ready and willing to
perform every duty placed upon it
by law and will assist in every way
possible in having a thorough ex-
animation of the books and accounts
of the county officers made by an ex-
pert accountant; but, under sections
1888, 2389, 1890, of Code of 1906
and Chapter 241 of the Laws of 49,
Ia, the power of appointing an ex-
aminer of the County books has been
conferred upon the Governor of the
State and that the Governor can act
only when presented with a petition
containing the names of twenty-five
per cent of the qualified electors of
the County.
Be it further resolved that, if the
people of our county desire an audit
of the books of the county officers and
if petitions should be circulated and
presented to the Governor contain
ing the names of 25 per cent of the
qualified electors of the county, this
Board will lend the examiner every
possible assistance.
Be it further resolved that a copy
of this resolution be mailed to the
Foremen of the said Grand Juries
copy given to each county paper for
publication.

So FOR EACH SIGN POST
THAT is NOT PUT UP

From Jackson, Attorney General
Robertson has sent out a circular let
ter addressed to all boards of super
visors, directing their attention to the
law in 1920 and which requires all
boards of supervisors, to have pre-
pared and painted, guide boards, with
index hands, attached to e suitable
post, erected at the intersection or
forks of all public roads within their
respective counties, on which boards
shall point legible characters the ma
mes of the town and place to
which they severally lead, the distance
thereof in miles, and the index hands
shall indicate the direction of such
town or place.
This statute provides that for fail
ing to comply Herewith, the several
members of the board of supervisors
shall each be liable to pay into the
county treasury to the credit of the
road fund of the county the sum of
$500 per month for each post or
guide board permitted to remain un-
erected or unrepaired, and that the
several boards shall be liable on
their official bonds for the penalty so
provided which may be enforced at
the suit of any citizen Of the state of
Mississippi.

ONLY 2s Sows SOLD
PINE CREST AUCTION

At the auction sale of Duroc-
Jersey hogs conducted at the Pine
Crest farm on Monday, 26 sows
bred to the famous boar Scissors,
were sold at an average Of $118.50.
The highest price paid for any one
sow was 1925.
1t had been planned to sell 45
animals that had been especially
bred, selected and conditioned for
the event but the bidding was so rag
ged that the auction terminated after
26 head had gone under the hammer.
The attendance was fairly good,
with fair number of local people
present. The buying, however, was
not vigorous. Seven sows went to
Arkansas men; four to Missourians,
three to Mississippi bidders and the
remainder were divided between
Georgia, Indiana and other states of
the corn belt.
The disappointing conditions sur
rounding the sale were not wholly
surprising. It was featured as a
cash sale, whereas many of the pre-
vious sales in this region in the last
two years have been with liberal Gre
dit terms. The Pine Crest management
however, was willing to make test
of conditions by making 1t cash
sale and the result was but little un-
der expectations. It was announced
when the bidding ended that while
the day did not come up to hopes, ii
was the plan of the farm to continue
breeding finer and better swine with
view to reaping the benefits at a
future day when financial conditions
will enable farmers to get the best
without so much hesitancy over what
it costs.-Charleston Sun.

Eminent Astronomer and Authority
on Subjects Of Scientific
Interest.
I'VE take great interest in
your very educational articles
and have been discussing the
question by what means the
speed OF light is determined.
but have given 1t up, and ap-
peal to you.-I. f. Med,
Chicago"
THE first measurement of the
velocity Of light was made
l. by the Danish astron.
omer Ole Roemer at Paris in
1875, and he did 1t in a way
that has renderd the story of per-
petual interest. because 1t not
only pleasantly exercises the
Imagination, but the process en-
ployed was 30 simple. though
grand, that anybody can easily
understand it-and apply it, too,
II desired.
For a time astronomers had
been puzzled by the fact that the
eclipses Of Jupiter's moons (which
occur whenever those bodies go
into the huge planets shadow
while circling. around him) hap
pened about sixteen and half
minutes later II observed when
the earth was at its greatest dis
tance from Jupiter than IL oh.
served when the earth was near
est to Jupiter.
Ole Roemer inferred that the
explanation of this must be that
light moved with a finite veloc-
ity, taking about sixteen and one
half minutes longer to pass be-
tween Jupiter and the earth,
when they were farthest apart
than when they were nearest to-
gether. This difference Of dis
tance. he knew must be equal to
the diameter of the earth's orbit.
since both planets travel around
the sun as common center.
Error In First Figures.
At that time the diameter Of
the earth's orbit was supposed to
be about 1911 100000 miles. Divid-
ing this by 996, the number OF
seconds that the light took to cross
the breadth of the orbit. the veloci.
ty Of light came out about 1872, 900
miles per second. This was the
first result of measurement Of the
velocity Of light. 1t would have
been very close to the figure ac-
cepted today. viz. 10000 miles
per second, II the width of the
earth's orbit had not been over.
estimated. We now know that the
width is about 1S6.000,00 miles.
In this description of Roemer's
method nothing has been said about
the refinements that bad to be
