J. 5. Thorne Purchases Half
Interest-Store Doing Fine
Business

The Pay & Take Store which re-
Gently opened for business at Wood
Street crossing has met with excell-
ent success from the day it opened
it's doors to the public.
Mr.. F. E. Stewart who started the
business soon found himself unable
to wait on his trade and the "hired
help" proposition didn't exa city appeal
10 him, so he decided to take in q
partner who would have equal interest
in the business as well as divide the
work.
Mr.. j. s. Thorne readily purchased
the interest In the store and the new
firm of Stewart & Thorne was form
ed. These two excellent young busi-
ness men make strong combination
and we predict that under their unit
ed efforts and combined capabilities
the Pay & Take Store will grow and
develop to still greater proportions.
We welcome Mr.. Thorne to the
business circles Of our city and wish
abundant success for him In his bust
ness enterprise.

CLASS II HOLD MEETING

Saturday afternoon, February "a,
Class Number Eleven of the First
Methodist Church held their monthly
business-social meeting in the home
of Mrs. Alton Smith on Pamela St.
Miss Kate Woods assisting Mrs.
Smith as hostess on this occasion.
Details of the Class business having
been concluded the guests were
highly entertained by two novel con-
tests, carrying out the spirit of the
season-"Washington's Birthday"
Each guest was given sheet of paper
and told to write the attributes of
the pupil our teacher would have US
to be, using the letters in the name
George Washington" The lists were
checked with that of Mrs. Watkins.
Next we were given the task of con-
structing the photograph of Washing
ton in the shortest length of time
from intricately cut pieces of his
ikness enclosed in an envelope. Miss
Ruth Hunter was first to assemble the
photograph properly. Miss Laura
Belle, Harley, at the piano, rendered
several pleasing numbers, after which
delightful salad course was served
to the twenty-five guests who had
the pleasure of being present.

EXPERT DRILLING
FOR OIL in Kinds
COUNTY AGAIN SOON

Indications point to resumption of
the search for oil in Kinds County
within a very short while. Agents
for Pennsylvania drilling company
are reported to have secured leases
on 10000 acres in the county and are
ready to begin operation. The leases
call for the beginning of drilling
within IL months.
Reports from the State Geological
Department shows formations In
Mississippi corresponding to those in
the oil producing sections Of Louisi-
ana and Arkansas, and the valuable
product is believed to be here and
obtainable by drilling to sufficient
depth.
Wells have been sent down in this
county in the past and the fact that
oil was not brought up is no indi-
cation that the situation does. not
appear promising to the drilling
company. High prices put on leases
were said to have caused a cessation
Of drilling, the company wishing to
wait with the hope Of securing the
leases at much lower figure.

BLOODED BULLS
VISIT THE CITY
Special Train Carrying 20
: Prize Jersey Bills Spend
Two Hours Here, Thursday.

Thursday the I. c. special train
carrying 20 prize Jersey bulls, ac-
compained by H. J. Schwietert
General Development Agent of the
|. c. Railroad and Hon. H. G. Van
Pelt noted dairy expert, arrived In
the city Thursday forenoon about
II o'cock.
About 800 farmers and business
men were at the station when the
special arrived. The bulls were exhibi-
ted to the spectators and their ex-
cellent appearance were greatly
admired.
Hon. H. G. Van Pelt addressed the
assembly using as subject the value
of good sires to improve the dairy
cow. Mr.. Van Pelt is noted author
ity of national reputation on dairy
ing and his instructive talk was of
-deep interest to all. Mr.. Schwietert
followed with a few brief remarks
stating how the l. c. Railroad Com
pany would place free some of the
bulls in territory along the I. C.
lines.
Mr.. Schwietert stated that al
ready he had received requests for
over 500 bulls, but that it would be
utterly impossible to supply free all
the animals the people asked for.
It is the purpose of the railroad
company to place these Jersey bulls
in every community on a $3.50 basis.
If community will buy one bull,
the railroad company will match it
with one free. II the community
wants four bulls, they buy two and
the company will furnish two free.
This is a fine opportunity for.
any community to improve their
dairy stock, and no county can afford
to miss it. How many bulls does
Water Valley want?

THE POLITICAL SITUATION
(By JOHN L. coLLINs)

In one of the dark corners of the
First District Of old Yalobusha
County, as the Psalmist David Of
olden times would say, "musing while
the fire burned" allow your humble
servant to indict few lines on the
political situation Of our grand old
commonwealth.
In the last issue of the North Mis-
sissippi Herald Of which you are
editor and proprietor, in a very
modest and formal way you stepped
to the front porch Of adventure,
willing and ready to try the speed
it takes to come out ahead under the
string in reaching the good of aspt-
ration and ambition.
AS an observer of the contestants
of the last campaign years ago, Of
County and State candidates who Of
fered for preferment. the writer
remarked that he saw evidence Of
such material and merit that 1t takes
for the right kind Of law maker.
So, let me say, you have offended
no one in this bend Of the Creek in
your complying with the old maxim,
'Tf at first you don't succeed, try,
try again"
Watching the trend for some time
of the political current through the
press report l have felt that our
folks were somewhat tardy in grasp
ing the matter Of greatest Importance
for our own good and future well
fare.
In your announcement I note that
you will, during the canvass, state
your platform upon which to demon
strate merit and qualification, in
cidentally mentioning the heavy
burden Of our present taxation, which
will be the "sine quo non" Of all
issues. This taxation burden viii re-
quire the BEST diplomatic service
and soundest judgement to bring
results that will be satisfactory to
those whose necks are raw and
shoulders tired from carrying the
oppressive load Of taxation.
AS q county we boast Of great ac-
compishments-even stretch out into
Divine territory and boast Of Christ
ian civilization, all Of which the writer
conceives to be q travesty on justice
as well as on craftsmanship.

FRENCH WOMEN LIKE
AMERICAN HUBBYS
Chosen Overwhelmingly in
Voting Contest

Paris, Feb. 25.-The woman.
weekly Eve, recently in one of its
issues, asked its readers two uues-
tions. The first of these was what
occupation they would perfer their
husbands to follow and the other, if
thcy '"ere not French, from what ma
tionafity they would choose a hus-
band. Nearly 10000 replies were re-
ceived on the second question, and
in these nearly $4,000 women voted
that they would choose an American
for their helpmate. Frances allies
made poor showing on this ques-
ton. Italy received only about 1000
votes while England only 1900. No
other nation aside from United States
italy and England passed the 400
mark. The list closed with Turkey,
for whose subjects 1S women voted
they had preference.
On the question of the occupation
Of husband, the manufacturer led
with 5000 votes. He was followed
by the scientist with 1000 the banker
with 1000. and the moving picture
actor with 1000. No other trade or
profession reached the four-figure
mark The aviator was ninth on he
list with $50 ballots, and the pugilis5
twelfth with 141. No votes were re-
ceived from woE:en who would have
army or navy officers or state en-
ployes as their husbands.

THE PNEUMONIA MONTH

March is a typical pneumonia
month and usually gives . high rate
Of mortality for the disease. After
a long and hard winter, the system
loses much of its resistance and
people grow careless. When ever
cold, no matter how slight, is given
prompt and intelligent attention,
there is much less danger of pneu-
monia. It should be- borne in mind
that pneumonia is germ disease and
in the throat. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is an expectorant and cleans
out the germ ladened mucus and not
only cures q cold but prevents its re-
sulting in pneumonia. It Is pleasant
to take. Children take it willingly.

NOTICE TO LIVE
STOCK SHIPPERS

We regret very much the way
our last attempt to make a shipment
of live stock turned out. Some people
seem to think we are mind-readers
and know they intend TO ship their
stock with as without listing with Us.
We do not make arraEgements to
handle anything that<is not listed
before day of shipment. We will
handle stock that has not been listed
provided it does not interfere with
the stock listed and there Is room.
The thing that interfered most
and caused US to fail shipment on
Feb. 23rd. was the fact that some
farmers brought some nice hogs in
and sold them to spectators for &C
when If they had shipped with US
they would have netted them 2 1-2e
a loss Of s.. on q 200 pound hog
and on a car Of $50 hogs. making .
loss of $4,000, q loss that farmers
cannot well afford to lose. We are
losing thousands Of dollars every
year by not cooperating.
Our next shipment of live stock
will be on March 23rd. Be sure ia
list your stock. and don't give them
away.

TWO CHANGES IN
HARDINC'S CABINET
DR.. Hubert Work Becomes
Secretary of the Interior Sue
ceeding Secy. Fall. Senator
New Becomes Postmaster
, General---Both Appoint
ments Promptly Confirmed
By Senate.

Washington, Feb. 27.-President
Harding today effected the greatest
change his cabinet has undergone
since his administration began near
two years ago by designating DR..
Hubert Work, of Colorado, now post
master general, to be secretary of
the interior, succeeding Albert B.
Fall, of New Mexico, and Senator
Harry s. New of Indiana, to head
the postoffice department in success
sion to DR.. Work
The nominations Of DIR. Work and
Senator New were sent to the Sem
ate and promptly confirmed, that of
Senator New almost Immediately In
open session in accordance with the
courtesy always extended a sitting
Senator, and that of DR.. Work late
in the day after it had been referred
to committees in open session and
reported back The two will take
up their new duties Monday wher
the resignation Of Secretary Fall, an
nounced several weeks ago, becomes
effective. Senator New retires from
the Senate with its adjournmnet Sum
dav.
The north Mississippi herald., 1923-03-02

The President, it is understood,
made up his mind to transfer DIR.
Work, who became postmaster gen.
eral last March a after the retire
ment of Will H. Hayes, of Indiana, to
the interior department because of
his often expressed desire to have a
western man at the head of this de-
partment which deals SO largely
with western affairs. 1t is under
stood this appointment had previous
ly been offered to Secretary Hoover
Of the Commercial Department but
that Mr.. Hoover had expressed a de-
sire to remain at the head of the
Commercial Department.
