OkIahOman Praises Black -Draughk
Having Used Il ''Can Safely
Say for so Years"

Grandfield, Okla One Of the best
known farmers of Tilman County, Mr..
@. w. Tisdale, who owns and manages
q wagon yard here. says;
II have used Thedford's Black
Draught--I believe can safely say for
fifty years.
II was born and reared in Texas,
Freestone County. sixty-four years ago.
have been married forty-four years.
MY father used Black Draught before I
was married, and gave It to us I.
For forty-four years Of my married
life, Il has had place on our medi-
cine shelf. and is the only laxative, or
liver medicine. we use. We use 1t
for torpid liver. sour stomach. head
ache, Indigestion :. don't think We
could get along without It, knowing
what 1t has done for US, and the money
It has saved. 1t is Just as good and re.
liable today as 1t was when we began
its use. MY boys use Il and they are
satisfied it's the. best liver medicine
they have ever used"
Thedford's Black Draught Ia purely
vegetable, not disagreeablo to take
and acts in q prompt and natural way.
So many thousands Of persons have

DRIVES FOR HAPPINESS.

David Belasco, at dinner cele-
brating his 40th year as theatrical
producer, says, with the mellowness
of age:-
"In all these years it stands to
reason that / must have learned
something, and it is this-it took
years to learn it: Love is the only
thing that matters, the one thing
that counts. 1t is the only thing
that tells in the long run. Nothing
else endures to the end"
Recently the Madison Herald had
an article headed "Prise-Stingy"
and it struck responsive chord in
the heart Of the Mississippi press.
1t suggested the word of commen-
dation and of praise so often ne
elected, no matter how much de-
served. 1t suggested the flowers that
wither and fade while living, tired
hands are yearning to clasp them. 1t
suggested the appreciation withheld
in the homeliest humblest task as
we'll as the most prominent and
public, with the human heart al
ways beating behind it-and wait
ing and listening for the cheer that
remains alas, unspoken.
But to make a long, lingering mat
ter short in the writing the Leader
wants to suggest in the face OF SO
many material drives. why not now:
Drives for Cheer, Drives for Fellow
ship. Drives for Cooperation, for
Harmony, for Love-for as the
Standard Book says: 1.-THE Greatest
of these is Love-"
II with pleasure you are viewing any
work a man is doing,
II you like him or you love him, tell
him now;
Don't withhold your appreciation till
the parson makes grafton
AS he lies with snowy lilies Ger his
brow;
For no mater how you shout it, he
won't really care about it;
He won't know how many teardrops
you have shed;
II you think some praise is due him.
now's the time to slip it to him
For he cannot read his tombstone
when he's dead!

Items from Beat Three Contest.

The various schools of Beat Three
met with Ruth March 3rd and con-
tested for places on the Field Day
program.
The inclement weather kept sew
eral at home; but the school spirit
was manifested, everything on the
program being represented.
Ruth School won first honor in ex-
preston, her contestant being Miss
Edith Crawford. Her teachers are
the Misses Mckee and Williams, who
are justly proud of the honor. for she
bespoke much training.
Topisaw School won first honor in
Defamation by Ray Daughdrill. He
not only won praise for himself but
his teachers as we'll, Misses Reeves
and Greer.
Pine Grove deserves praise for the
interest they manifested, winning
several places, among them the Cho-
rus and Basket Ball Game. Their
teachers, Mr.. Reeves and Miss Bris-
ter. are never disappointed in their
pupils.
Union and several other schools
were we'll represented. They all de-
serve mention.
Pine Grove defeated Providence in
the basket ball game by a large ma
jority.
The running and jumping created
quite lot of amusement. Some of
the fathers became so enthused over
it until they bid adieu to old age and
put on their full armor Of youth and
entered into the fun, making things
real interesting for while.

WHATS THE MATTER WITH
MISSISSIPPT"9

Gen. Lotterhos in speaking be-
fore the Kiwanis Club at Jackson
en- What is the Matter With Mis-
sissippi" said that as he sees it, there
is nothing especially the matter
with the state. If there is anything
1t is the fact that the boys and girls
are leaving Mississippi instead OF
following their chosen lines Of en-
deavor here. He further, stated that
before any intelligent criticism could
be passed upon this, it would be ne
cessary to gather from these boys
and girls the reasons why they are
leaving, and then it would be the
duty of the people of Mississippi to
correct this cause whatever it might
be.
The General, evidently, hasn't Wis
tied Brookhaven. Down here it is
remarkable how many Of our finest
and best boys and girls are pursuing
their life's work right here in Brook
haven. AS stenographers, merchants,
teachers. lawyers, statesmen, ETC., they
are here to stay and are happy on
the way.
But Mississippi is all right. A
few people that go wrong, are like
gnats on an ox's horn-the State
is not affected by it; but continues
to be the potential and unchanging
factor for civic Righteousness and
the highest standards attainable.
Truth is mighty and will prevail in
spite Of a few delinquent people. One
and God make healthy majority.

sPTNKS HOLDS A BIG
S, G. REVIVAL MEETING
Popular Evils Draw Crowds to
Speaker = 10 Join on Pro-
fession Of Faith.

The EasleyS S. c. Progress in its
current issue contains the following:
The revival meeting at the Glen
wood Baptist church which was be-
gun on February 18th has just come
to close. The meeting was great
success from the start. The meeting
was begun in the Baptist church,
but on account of the large attend
ance was soon moved to the auditor
ium of the school house where near
ly thousand people could hear Rev.
w. L. Spinks, known as the great
railroad evangelist.
Great throngs of people came for
ward time after time and gave their
hand pledging closer walk with
Christ. This meeting will be sa-
cred spot in the history of many lives
that were lifted into higher plane
of living. One hundred and ten per-
sons joined the church on profession
of faith. Memories of those sweet
days of old were made fresh in the
minds of many old patriarchs OF this
community who had so long awaited
the arrival of the old fashioned re-
vival meeting.
The services were frequently re-
ferred to as great landslides when
scores of hard hearted sinners were
saved and sent from the altar on
their way rejoicing in new life.
Mr.. Spinks is one Of the best in
formed young preachers in the
South on the popular evils of the daX
and never seems to lack word to
express his unadulterated opinion.
He often says that Ignorance is the
problem" and quotes the following
my people are destroyed for the
lack Of knowledge" Hosea AS. And
then assures that wisdom is the
solution" and quotes John s-33: "Ye
shall know the truth and the truth
shall make you free"

Rabbi Max Heller is the first sub
scriber to the fund for new Temple
Sinai said Sundays Times-Picayune.
The congregation celebrated the thir-
ty-fifth anniversary of DR.. Heller's
ministry by the surprise pre-
sentation Of a purse said to contain
$500. The recipient, while ex-
pressing his gratitude, asked permis-
sion to utilize the gift for any pur-
pose he chose, and then announced
that he would use it to start the sub
scription for the erection Of mag
nificent new temple more convenient
to the homes Of its members.
DR.. Heller, the distinguished Rab-
bi Of the Crescent City, has visited
Brookhaven and offlciated on many
bridal occasions and again when

by the rocks of despair; and his
name has been dragged through the
mire and the muck till tbs past
where "a human could care, and
we're asked to relate all the evil
We can of this chap who has gone
to the wall; then unless we can
say some good of the man, let us
learn to say nothing at all.
When we meet with a chap whom
it seems can not win, shall we say
that he never has tried? That his
heart-strings are tuned to the dis
cord OF sin and have lost all ambi-
ton and pride? When it's true like
as not, if our own deeds we scan,
that there's little we care to recall,
so unless we can say something
good of the man, let us learn to
say nothing at all.
When we meet with a chap who
