WRITES DEMOCRAT READERS
Tells About First weeks Session
OF Legislature
Editor OF the Neshoba Democrat,
Philadelphia, Miss.

Editor OF the Neshoba Democrat.
Philadelphia, Miss.
Dear Editor:
s l desire to give the readers of your
valuable paper a brief report OF the
proceedings of the first week OF the
legislature.
The first day we completed our
organization and the speaker gave
US a short and instructive speech
after which we invited our Jr. u. IS.
Senator Pat Harrison to address US.
He delivered one OF the most master
ly speeches l have ever heard show
ing how the Republicans are play
ing to the hands OF the rich and at
the cost OF the farmers and small
business men.
On Wednesday we had quite a
busy session. The Governor deliv-
cred his message to the Joint as
sennbly, a speech of more than two
hours length, with many recon-
mendations and praises for the
Pardoning Board and the work it
has done. He spoke very harsh OF
those who criticised the Board or
opposed him In any way. but after
all, his message contained many
valuable suggestions and recon-
mendations. After the Governors
message, the bills, memorials and
resolutions began to pour In and
there have been more than forty bills
introduced in the Senate and over
one hundred in the House. A num-
Der OF these bills are to abolish the
following state officers: The State
Board OF Pardons, Board OF Prison
Trustees, Railroad Commissioners,
State Tax Commissioners, Colony
for the Feeble Minded, State Plant
Board, Land Commissioners Office
and additional bills, that would
virtually put the Live Stock SAINT
tary Board out OF business and re-
-dnee the clerical forces in IL 4lnfnbef
OF other offices, also to abolish the
office OF Assistant TO the Director OF
Archives and History, and num-
ber OF bills pertaining to the lower
ing OF County and State officers sal
aries. am sure this Legislature will
stand and work for lower appropri-
alton and economy generally. do
not think appropriations for our
rural schools and confederate Sold
iers will be lowered, as for myself
am willing to give to them the
amount they have had In the last
two years, (rural schools four mill
lions, Confederate Soldiers eight
hundred thousand).
The Legislature had the speaker to
appoint committees to Investigate
the deficiencies of A. & M. College.
the State text book commission.
Yazoo, Miss. Delta Commission and
other minor things.
Now In conclusion. will appreci-
ate any suggestion or advice that
anyone from my county will give, In
order that | may know your needs
and desires, so that may properly
represent you, and II In any way
that can serve you am at your
command.
Yours to serve,

Hygiene and not anatemy is the
study that Is important in the gram

should be In the hands OF ,botn par
ents and teachers who deal with
children In the first four grades. It
might be said right hers that the
school Is an auxiliary institution
created for the parpose OF assisting
the parents In the proper ply sical
and mental development OF theiF
children. 1t was. never intended
that the school should take over the
entire responsibility OF develuping
the child.
Group rivalry is one OF the most
effective ways Of securing persona
cleanliness. Have contests between
different rows, sections, and grades
to see who will be the cleaneet and

GOOD. SOUND SENSE

The other evening determined faith
er strode into the automobile show and
yanked from the arms of her puzzled
dancing partner his l6-year-old daugh-
ter. II appears that the girl hao told
the parent that she was going to visit
a school friend and then had proceeded
to deceive and to the dance. The faith
er learned of the duplicity and took
matters in hand in no uncertain way.
That parent showed rare example
Of good, sound sense. No false fear Of
neighborhood gossip deferred him from
asserting his authority; the welfare Of
his child was his paramount objective
and the daughter received a lesson
much more forcible and lasting than
any attendance lecture or chastising.
Much talk is heard here and there
concerning the lax morals Of the
younger generation. This talk is in a
large measure propagated by parents;
if these same progenitors would stop
gossiping long enough to use the strong
arm on their own offspring they would
find chat the occasion for their gossip
had largely vanished. Oklahoman.

MAINE POINTS THE WAY TO RE
PUBLICAN VICTORY

The result of the special election OF
NE Third Maine district on Monday
does not bear out the claims of those
who are insisting that the popularity
of the administration is decreasing,
and that the country is disgusted with
a ''do nothing Congress" and prepared
10 turn the government over to the OPP
position.
Practically twothirds Of the voters Of
the district cast their votes for the
Republican congressionl candidate.
The proportion of the total vote cast
by the Republicans was Sc per cent in
1920 and 62 per cent this week. The
aection followeda hard fought primary
which aroused some bad feeling. A
few days before Democrats had made
considerable gains in municipal cleo
lions. On election day country roads
were almost impossible, owing to a
heavy fall of snow and sleet, so that
the vote was light in the Republican
portions Of the district and heavier in
cbe industrial centers, where there is
still much unemployment.
Mondays election puts the Republi-
sans off for a good start in 1922. The
Congressional and National commit
tees supplemented the district and
state organizations in making an effec-
i've fight. The National Republican
was sent to ten thousand Republican
workers in the district during the short
campaign. Letters were written and
organizers used by National Chairman
Adams and Congressional Chairman
Fess. The Republican candidate, Mr..
Nelson. made an active canvass.
The Maine motto is "Dirigo, -
point the way" AS Maine has done
N other years, so does the Pine Tree
State in 1922. No one claims the Re.
publican record is perfect. There i,

But, when the alternative is contem
plated, who believes that the American
people are going to turn for relief I,
