CITY SCHOOLS PLAN
MING BIG DAY

The Grenada City Schools are plan
ming to hold the Annual Play Festival
or Field Meet on the public school
grounds on Friday, March 3lst. There
will be a good program of athletic
events and a prize has been offered
for the winners in each. The prizes
are to be donated by various business
concerns in the town and will no
doubt stimulate the entrants to re
newed efforts to come out victorious.
There are some unique events on the
program and much enjoyment IS
promised all who attend.
The high school baseball team viii
open for this season on that day with
q game with Oxford High. The team
this year is doing some splendid prac-
tice work and it promises to Guido
the record made by last years team.
The same teams will play again the
next dav. Saturday, April l.. The
Grenada boys and those from Oxford
are very evenly matched and the
games will no doubt prove to be close.

JUDGE T. L. LAMB
SEEKS A REELECTION

The Sentinel is authorized to place
the name of Judge 7. l.. Lamb be-
fore its readers as a candidate for
reelection to the office of Circuit
Judge of this district, a place to which
the Judge was elected four years
ago, and a place he has filled with
great satisfaction to the people and
the bar, and with credit to himself.
Judge Lamb is a painstaking, care
full, considerable and faithful official,
and it is his aim to hold the scales
of justice evenly balanced and to
make the courts he p%resides over not
only a place to construe the law and
to adjudicate differences between
men, but instruments of service to
the State.
Judge Lamb served eight years as
district attorney of this district.
Later he served as Chancellor of the
district which embraces his County,
and as already stated, four years ago,
he was honored with the circuit
judgeship of this district. Thus it
is that he has had a varied eX-
p%erience with the courts and that he
has had an official connection in three
dicerent capacities that ought to give
him an unusual grasp of the duties
and responsibilities of a Judge, and
enable him to make an exceptionally
fine judicial officer. The Sentinel is
but repeating what is almost univer-
sally stated of Judge Lamb when 1t
states that he has made a highly
satisfactory Judge. He pushes the
business of the court along without
any hullaballoo or-play to the CALLER
les. He is positive with the lawyers,
emphatic in his deliverances, and al
ways conducts himself with becoming
poise and dignity.
judi Lamb enjoys the confidence
and esteem of his neighbors and
those who know him best at home:
He stands for the right in morals and
all things that go to make good citl-
zenship and to further the best ends
of society. Therefore it is safe TO
say that. should any II offer against
him, with his record as a man and as
a public official and his success as a
lawyer, it would be found that he was
pretty thoroughly entrenched IN the
confidence of his constituency.

IDENTITY begin at Early Date. Some
Things Hoped for as Result.

On Thursday afternoon of last
week the City Council of Grenada
met in adjourned session to consider
bids for the SIS. 100000 in school
bonds voted by the electorate of
Grenada January rs. There were SIX
bids and all at par and slightly above
excer+ one. The bonds were sold to
a Jackson. Tenn, firm at a small
premium. 1t will be remembered that
the bonds were not to bear over 81
interest. 1t is figured that the prem
ium practically makes the interest
rate about 5A#
The trustees of the City Schools
will no doubt proceed at an early
date to take action looking to begin
ring at the earliest possible moment
in order. if possible, to nave the new
building for the opening of the tall
session of the school.
The new school building will be a
realization of a dream o
school authorities have had for a num-
Der of years. According to present
day school standards, the present
building is inadequate. There are
several departments which other
schools in towns the size of
are maintaining that are impossible
in Grenada for want of room. The
writer has wanted to see a sure
enough business department there for
several wears. With an instructor
there who can teach practical, o
theoretical bookkeeping. and short,
hand, a very great step forward. will
be taken in givin~ those who attend
the High School. an equipment that
will aid them in earning a livelihood.
Possibly there are some things in the
socalled standard schools of the
country which theorists have put IN
that could be eliminated without hurt
to the students, but conditions make
the teaching of business methods and
bookkeeping almost a necessity.
The trustees have an important
problem on their hands. The 'Sentlnel
feels that they will meet the duty acI,
cording to their best judgment and
with what they believe to be best
! for the children of today and those
who are to come after them.

WHY COTTON MARKET DRACS
IN GRENADA AT TIMES. MUST
HAVE LONGER STAPLE
Dear Sentinel:

Dear Sentinel:
BY your kindness in giving me this
space, | want to address a few re-
marks to my farmer friends of Gre
NADIA and surrounding counties re-
garding cotton, the variety of cotton,
they are now planting. Everyone
knows that the firm | am buying for
is one of the oldest, largest, strong
est. in the South. Last season they
stopped me from buying for about
eve weeks, this present season |
have been out half the time, my
people claim they cannot find an out
let for this "half-and-half" King"
"Cook" and 'runout Wannamaker".
Under the Government Futures Act.
the cotton must pull 7-8 inch in length
to be delivered on contracts. The
majority of the cotton raised here
abouts pulls" from 1-2 to ga inch.
This failure to measure 7-8 inch
keeps us from selling Future con-
tracts and getting rid of your cotton
in New Orleans or New York if neces-
sary. You readily see that this
throws our firm back on to the Spin
ner and if he does not want this dead
short otton, how are we to ever get
rid of it?
1t seems to US if the Chamber of
Cmmerce could function anywhere for
Grenada's good, here is the place to
help the farmers dispose of their pres
ent seed for a little longer variety,
the difference in cost would not De
much. The Newberger Cotton Co.
sells in every corner of the globe and
when they can't place it,lt is you may
say practically unsaleable. If the
present conditions continue, it is pos
sible that a farmer may find he can't
sell this dead short cotton to anyone
at any price.
Best wishes. Your friend.
