committee on Hygiene and Sanitation.
Mrs. C. S. Brown is chairman of this
committee and had charge of the pro-

Miss Alexander-you know her,
don't you? You should, and If you
do not, why come to the next P. T. A.

she read such fine paper on the sub
iect "Malnutrition," discussing it
fully. She then discussed Foods" and
sThe value of fresh vegetables Z

last year, several cases of malnutrl-
ton was found to be underweight.
We had some very interesting re-

Did you know that the P. T. A. hac
put in about sixty educational books

FIRE INSURANCE
COMPANY IS
ORGANIZED
Company Starts Out With Capital of
$2,OOO,OO0, Headed By Best
Business Men.


jackson, Miss, Jan. 31.--While
grave doubts exist as to whether any
form remedial or constructive legisla-
ton on the fire insurance question
will the enacted at this session of the
legislature, the leading capitalists
and ussiness men of the State have
determined to take matters into their
own hands and see to it that adequate
fire protection is offered to property
owners.
The most substantial evidence of
this determination is the organization
of the aBnkers & Merchants Fire In
surance Company, backed by two mil
lion dollars of capital stock and hav-
ing at its head more than two score
of the foremost business and profes-
sional men in Mississippi.
The organizers of this Company are
taking no part in the legislative pro-
gram. They are neither promoters
nor politicians, but, having the best
business interests of the State at
heart, they have formed an organiza-
tion that can and will write reliable
fire insurance at reasonable rates,
backed by the strongest business in
terests in the commonwealth.
At the head~of the organization is
Mr.. R. E. Remington, the merchant
prince of Mississippi, the foremost re
tail merchant in. the State, who has
achieved remarkable success in many
forms of business endeavor and in
dustriaI development during the past
twenty years, who was unanimously
chosen as President of the newly or
ganized Company. The list of Off
GERS and directors guarantee the sue
cess of the enterprise, which soon
will be in position to offer fire insur-
ance policies to the public, and which
is now being flooded daily with re-
quests for stock fro mpeople who want
to make a good investment.

ident; John E. King, New York, First
Vice President; H. V. Watkins, Jack
son, Second Vice President; r. H.
Green, jackson, Third Vice President;
John E. Seacy, Brookhaven, Fourth
Vice President; w. G. Sours, Jackson,
Secretary. These with the following,
constitute the Board of Directors:

The Company considers itself par
ticularly fortunate in having associa-
ted with it John E. King, of New

s'aocessful fire insurance men in the
country.

DELHI. India, Mar. 9.--During the
course of an extensive speech in the
legislative assembly yesterday in re-
ply to criticisms of military expendi-
lures, Gen. Lord Henry S. Rawlinson,
commander in chief of the British
troops in India, said that despite eff
forts to reduce the expenses of the
army, the rise in food prices, clothes
and rail charges had swallowed up
all the economies.
He declared no further reduction OF
the army was now possible on ac-
count Of seditiouS propaganda neces-
stating the calling out of troops al
most daily to preserve peace and
guard against attempts of seditionists
to tamper withsthe loyalty of Indian
soldiers. He said he would consider
further reductions whenever united
lAldia showed her loyalty and devotion
70 the British empire, but under the
present circumstances the internal
British garrisons OF India were none
too large.
Alluding to Waziristan, in the
southeastern part of Afghanistan,
General Rawlinson said the only So
luton Of the difficult problem was
the domination of the country by
military force. He declared that
under the reform scheme India was
marching toward dominion status
and self government, but he warned
the assembly that it was dangerous
10 gamble with the efficiency OF the
army when an hereditary enemy was
sitting on the frontier. ~
General Rawlinson asserted win
axnuch emphasis that the internal state
df India gave cause for serious anAi-
IN and the ability OF the government
~ maintain law and order, he feared,
would be seriously tested at no dis
tant date.

BIG CITIES WANT
AUTO TAX PORTION.
WOULD USE ON ARTERIAI
STREETS FUNDS NOW
GOING OUTSIDE.

Demand by Minneapolis, st. Paul
and Duluth to the next legislature
for refunds of part of the motor
vehicle tax money for use on art
erial streets in those cities is fore
cast in recent newspaper reports.
Under the Babcock plan the funds
now are used exclusively on the trunk
highways outside those cities.
Postponement of Nicollet avenue
paving in Minneapolis followed the
proposal of legislative fight and
the agitation for change of laws
started in st. Paul at political
rally.
Twin City businessmen stated
that car owners in Minneapolis, St.
Paul and Duluth pay approximately
100000 year in automobile and
truck taxes which goes on highways
outside those cities-all stopping at
the city limits. They declared that
provision should be made for state
Improvement of trunk highways run
ming through the large as well as
the small cities and villages and the
rural districts. 1t was stated fur
Their that under the state aid law
for financing local road improve
ments Hennepin, Ramsey and st.
Louis counties pay nearly four times
as much as they receive in return
while other counties gain according
ly.
The state highway bulletin states
that there is little prospect of any
change at this time to extend trunk
highway improvement inside t h e
three large cities. The advantage
to the smaller cities, villages and
rural sections, however, will con-
tinue only so long as present pro-
visions stand and will be affected to
some extent by action of the Legis-
lature of 1923 in providing funds
for the state highway program dur
ing the next two years.

JANUARY HUMANE THOUGHT
THE SIN OF NEGLECT
BY A. E. Frederick, State
Humane Officer.

Negligence is a crime. Shakes
pere.
Neglect is as great a crime as the
commission of a positive act of cruel
ty. This is true whether it applies to
the care of human beings or of ami
mails.
Attention should be called hereto
especially during the winter months
when neglect causes greatest suffer-
ing. Everywhere there are people
Who, though not positively cruel, are,
nevertheless, guilty of gross neglect.
We find this in the cities where folks
often keep pets without adequate
shelter from the cold, and we also find
this in the country where stock and
the other animals of the farm are
often seriously neglected.
1t is not uncommon to find horses,
cattle, young stock, hogs, chickens,
and other animals exposed to the cold.
Many barn and hog houses are not
built warmly enough, and many
coops furnish practically no shelter
from the cold, whatever. These build
ings should be banked up on the out
side and double boarded or papered on
the inside. Broken windows should
be replaced with glass, so that there
may be both warmth and light.
There are people who keep cattle
in open sheds both day and night.
These may constitute little shelter
from the wind, if it comes from the
right direction, but it is practically
the same as leaving the animals out
Of doors. Some leave their animals
out with probably no protection but
barren woods. The fact that some
animals through such exposure is no
indication that they do not suffer ter
ribly from the cold. Even though they
be well fed, animals need warm barn
in winter. plenty of bedding and
water slightly warmed.
The State Humane Officer desires
that all who know of cases of neglect
notify him or their respective county
humane officers. so that suffering may
be relieved. The day of neglect Of
our animals must speedily end; it is
contrary to the spirit Of our advancing
civilization.
