tive citizens from out-of-town may

of the day during which time Presi-
dent Thomas may be expected to
bring into review before the banks
officiary and stockholders the bank s
affairs as well as an outline of plans

TWO POST MASTERS
AND BROTHERS

There were two Postmasters in
Grenada last Monday and they are
brothers. One resides in Greenwc I'd
and the other in Grenada. Both have
been recently named Postmasters and
both are filling the places most ac-
ceptably. Reference is had to Gre
nada's very Efficient and accommodate
ing Postmaster, Judge J. H. Spence,
and to his. equally capable and effici-
ent brother, j. T. Spence, who is dis
charging the same duty for the good
people of Greenwood and vicinity.
These men are intelligent They
know hoU 10 do things end are.s-ia.
accord with the best senti-
ment of this section. Indeed they are
Georgia born and reared in Tennes-
see and have all the impulses and as
pirations of the best in the South.
The Sentinel feels that if they did
not tell you so that one would never
know that they are Republicans in
politics. In the language of the late
Teddy Roosevelt, they are "bully fell
lows.

Mr.. w. b. Hoffa some weeks ago
became the owner of the Serum plant
located in Grenada and just recently
Mr.. w. H. Kirk associated himself
with him. These gentlemen have
changed the name of the plant to the
Cotton States Serum Company. Mr..
HOffa is president and Mr.. Kirk
manager. The names Of these two
gentlemen are a splendid introduc-
tion to the confidence of the business
world and is guarantee that the best
business rules will be observed and
that things may be expected to be
made to hustle around this important
enterprise.
The making of anti-hog cholera
serum at this plant is supervised by
DIR. j. S. Clark, direct representa-
tive of the Bureau of Animal Hus-
bandry of the Department of Agricul
ture at Washington, hence it is safe
to assert that every government regu-
lation is and will be complied with.
1t is quite distinction for Grena-
da County to have this enterprise.
1t means not only much for this i'm
mediate section but the entire state
as well as surrounding states. There
is but one other in the South and it
is now well recognized and estab-
llshed fact that only by vaccinating
with the anti-cholera serum can the
epidemic of cholera be stamped out in
hogs. 1t is we'll known fact that
even after herd of hogs become in
fected and the hogs have the fever,
that they can be saved by the use of
this serum.
In addition to the manufacture Of
the serum, the Cotton States Serum
Company furnishes a ready and a.
local market for many hogs which
should be an encouragement to the
farmers and the stock raisers of this
section. -
With boil weevil infection and the
low price of cotton, and the fact that
it is reasonable for the cotton market
to be a drag for several years, it
would seem to be a wise thing for the
farmers to enlarge their herds of hogs
as well as cattle and their poultry
yards. The world must eat; some
body is going to sell hogs and cattle
and why not the people of this sec
ton and.of Mississippi get their share
of the business?
The Sentinel felicitates with the
people of this section over the Cotton
States Anti-hog cholera Serum plant
and hopes that the people of Missis-
sippi may avail themselves of its bene-
its and that the lessons it may teach
nay not be overlooked

lott left day or two in advance OF
the meeting of the legislature so as
to get the lay of the ground before
the lawmakers got into action. Both
these gentlemen stated that they
were for cutting appropriations and
retrenchment in every way possible
and The Sentinel feels that it can
safely assert that they will do their
best to register the will of their con-
stituents in their votes and in their
actions at Jackson.
Mr.. Winter stated to Sentinel
representative that in brief he ex-
pected to make a vigorous fight for
the following:
1. Repealiig of the county officers
salary law and the placing of these
officials back on the fee system with
maximum limitation as to salar-
les.
2. The cutting Of every appropriation
wherever possible below what was
appropriated at the 1920 session.
3. Opposition to the creation of any
nav Offices or boards.
4. The abolition of the Pardoning
Board and the Rail Road Commits
sion and transfer of what little
is now done by the Rail Road Com
mission TO either the Penitentiary
Trustees or to the Tax Commission.
>. Exemption of money on deposit in
banks from taxation.
8. Exemption of new standard guage
railroad lines and Of factories, 9TH
er than oil mills, from taxes for a
period of years.
z. Abolition of the office of State
Revenue Agent.
8. Requiring chancery clerks topublish
monthly list of mortgages record
ed so that the rate of interest may
be shown, making it thereby i'm
possible for money loaned above
6 per cent to escape taxation.
Mr.. Winter enjoys the confidence
and esteem of his fellow-legislators
to marked degree and is regarded
as one of the safest and most useful
men in the legislature.

LOSES EYE IN AUTO
MOBILE COLLISION
Studebaker and Ford Cars Collide
Which Costs Miss Louise
Baker an Eye.

On Friday afternoon of last week
iStudebaker car occupied by Miss
Louise Baker and her sister, Miss
Martha. collided with Ford car oc-
cupied by Mr.. Fireman who resides
n Greenwood which resulted in break
ing the wind shield and otherwise
damaging the car occupied by the
young ladies and the worst of all the
loss by Miss Louise Baker of one of
her eyes. The Misses Baker were
coming into Grenada, and on the first
bridge this side of the home of Mrs.
Walter Mullin, they met Mr. Free
man who was driving The young
ladies state that they reached the
bridge first and naturally thought
that the car going out would halt un-
til they passed over the bridge, which
was not wide enough for two cars, but
in this they were mistaken. When
they saw that Mr.. Freeman. they
state, was not gonig to halt at the
bridge, they put on the brakes to
their car so that when it was struck
by the moving Ford it was practically
at standstill, otherwise had the
Misses Baker not applied their breaks,
their car would undoubtedly have
flung the little Ford off the bridge.
A piece of the glass from the
broken wind shield struck Miss Louise
Baker in the eye, and while it bled
rather profusely, it did not give her
special pain and at first the gravity of
her wound was not realized. But or
reaching Grenada and after consult
ing physician, the seriousness Of the
wound was ascertained and she was
rushed to Memphis on the fast after
noon train and the care of an eye
specialist at on e secured who was
but little while informing Miss
Bakers father, w. r. Baker, that it
would be impossible to save the eye.
The main thing now is to save the
other eye which the many friends of
this excellent young lady earnestly
hope will be done.
AS soon as the collision occurred.
it was observed that the Studebaker
ear was so disabled that it could not
make it into town, so Mr.. Freeman
onered to accompany the Misses
Baker in his car, but they came in
n another car already enroute to
soWn. Mr.. Freeman evidently did /.
lot see the accident in its true light
md undoubtedly did not think the
wound IN the eye was serious. It is
tated- that he called at Mr.. Bakers
esidence on Sunday to express regret
It what had happened and to discuss
he matter with Mr.. Baker.
Miss Baker is still in the Memphis
lospital and shall probably have to
emain there for several weeks. She
las been teaching in the schools at
'ascagou1a this session but her af-
liction compels her to resion. Her

Mr.. Mattingly at this juncture
called Mr.. w. B. Hoffa to the chair.
A resolution was offered and adopt
ed showing that it was the judg-
ment of majority of the meeting
that the supervisors should name a
road commissioner to look after the
up-keep of the hard-surfaced roads
which the county had gone to so
much expense to build, and also 9TH
er road work; however, it did not
seem to be generally understood that
i if the supervisors nanISd a commits
tsioner, they would not be relieved of
the obligation of inspecting the roads
also which would entail double cost
for inspection on the tax payers.
The question of county expenses
and of the supervisors mapping out
in advance what money they would,
have to spend, and of not making
contracts or contracting debts in ex-
cess of the money the county will
have to spend, came up. After some
supdry discussion, a resolution was
offered naming Messrs. j. T. Thomas,
w. M. Dubard and j. B. Perry as a
committee to select five men in the
county as sort of "budget commit
tee" to cooperate with the supervis-
ors. On motion Messrs. Thomas, Du-
bard and Perry were added to the
committee.
AS the meeting was breaking up,
the matter of asking for a pretermis-
sion of the January term of the cir
cult court was brought up. 1t was
stated that there was not a heavy
docket and that the holding of the
court would cost the county $4,000,
whereupon a motion was made and
carried asking for pretermission of
the court. But the meeting did a !
paradoxical thing at the same time in |
adopting a resolution asking that the |
sheriff and other law-enforcing offic-
ers be more diligent in watching after
the law-breakers and especially in |
keeping vigilant eye for still oper-
ators. Accordingly committee con-
sisting Of the following was named |
to present the matter to the law-en-
forcing officers of the county: j. B.
Perry, w. B. Rook, Eugene Horton,
Glen Thomson and w. C. Mullin.

price is far above rubies. Thus it
is that this young travelling man
comes of parentage which is
splendid introduction and recommen-
dation to him anywhere. But he has
shown his mettle, and has made good

business as well as elsewhere and this
paper believes he will make one Of
the best and most successful travelling

THE DAIRYINC BUSINESS
IN WISCONSIN AND HERE
Mr.. Noh. States Tha. Things ARE
Lagging In The Great North.
West, Too.

| Mr.. w. G.. Nohl, the very intelli
gent an popular manager of the
Phoenix Chair plant in Grenada, is
just back from Ashland and Sheboy-
gan, Wis, and he reports that bust
ness, outside of the dairy district,
shows about the same lethargy and
states that there is hardly milling
plant running. He says that but for
the dairying business in that section
the people would be practically at a
standstill and in this connection, Mr..
Nohl expresses the conviction that
dairvin0 would oo a long wav towards
simplifying the business problems of
this section. He thinks that dairving
could be made just as profitable and
with less outlay of money here as in
Wisconsin, and his views in this re-
spect are shared by hundreds who
have given the matter serious thought
and business consideration.
The Sentinel mentions what Mr..
Nohl states for two reasons: One is
to show the people of this section
that others are having business wor-
ries and embarrassing troubles just
now as they are, and the other is,
that man of clear vision and care
full thinker and who knows conditions
in one of the gretest dairying sections
of the Union, tells them that dairying
could be made even more. profitable
here than there.
The moral of all this is: If you see
that your boat is leaking and is about
to sink before you can get across the
stream, get out of it and into another
boat which others are using and which
is carrying them safe.
