MEEKER MEMORIAL
PRAYER LEAGUE
Ninety Enrolled Members Meet
At Baptist Church Every
Sunday Afternoon. Bro.
T.. Q. Ellis, Leader, Assisted
BY Complement of Efficient
And Enthusiastic Assistance.

The Meeker Memorial Mems Pray
er League was organized in April
last spring just following the closing
of the Meeker revival meetings at
the Baptist Church of his city.
The League started out with a
small membership but today it has
grown to be wonderful and power
full organization with an enrolment
of over 80 members.
The presiding officer or Chairman
is Bro. T. Q. Ellis, one of the most
talented and most capable young men
of the city. Bro. Ellis has put his
whole heart and soul in the work and
under his matchless leadership the
Prayer League has developed not
only into one of the most powerful
religious organizations in the state,
but also great accomplishment for
Christ and good for the city and
community has been accomplished.
Bro. Ellis is ably assisted by all the
officers, committees and members OF
the entire organization, which is
made up Of the best men OF
the city. Space in this article will
not permit personal mention OF
each of he officers and co-workers.
as they richly deserve.
The motto of the League is Luke
9-62. Meets every Sunday afternoon
in the Auditorium of the Baptist
Church from 4 :15 to o'clock, where
from 60 to 75 stalwart conscientious
Christian men are in attendance and
each taking an active, enthusiastic
part in the meeting.
The League promotes and infiu-
ences good fellowship, brotherly love
and personal interest in each other,
and their meetings are a wonderful
source of encouragement and in
spiration to every member or any
one else who attends.
Social Meeting Monday Night
Monday night the League held a
social meeting at which 70 members
and few visitors were present. The
assembly met in the Baptist Church
auditorium at o'clock where a short
song and prayer service followed by
brief addresses were indulged in,
then followed refreshments served
in the Baraca Hall. During the SER
vice of the refreshments numerous
personal testimonials were given and
at late hour the assembly reluctant
" said good bye and separated for
their respective homes.

GOOD GOING ON

1 AT the recent meeting of the grand
lodge of Elks at Atlanta, report
showed that the order spent $2,225,-
600 last year in charity work alone.
The Loyal Order of Moose main
tains an orphanage at Mooseheart, a
few miles out of Chicago, said to be
model institution. Mr.. Davis, the
head of the orded, who is also secre-
tary of labor, plans to pattern gov
ernment institutions after it.
The Shriners, we are told, are
making the treatment of cripple chill
dren their objective. All the frater-
nal orders are going in for construc-
tive programs and the luncheon clubs
are taking up similar work..
Every worthwhile organizati ton
has definite policy of constructive
helpfulness They have found that
service must be the watchword of the
future. There is sharp contrast
between the organizations that per-
form mission of charity and mercy
and those that have no higher claim
to survival than the promotion of re-
/ ligious or racial prejudice. Some
are dismayed over the appearance of
intolerance and injustice, but to our
mind it only serves to emhpasize the
dominant spirit of good will that is
gradually, but certainly finding it's
way into the hearts of men.
No deserving family is permitted
to suffer and no orphan is left to beg
its bread. No ambitious boy is de-
MED an education and there is no
cripple, no matter what his circum-
stances, who may not have the bene-
fit of the surgical attention.
There was never time when men
were so generous with their means
so sympathetic with those in distress
or more solicitous for those in need
Except for the occasional appearance
of narrowness, selfishness and spite
fulness We might not be impressed
with all good that is going on about
US.

as scattered votes, show how favorite
sons were choices in the various
states. Haskell of Oklahoma ran
strongest of favorite sons with 852
votes-although his state went tc
Ford with total of 24,O93. In New
York, Judge Daniel F. Cohalan, Su.
preme Court Justice of New York
State received a consistent favorite
son vote. So it was with Lowden
of Illinois, Ralston of Indiana, Ed.
wards and Silzer of New Jersey
Beveridge and Marshall of Indiana
also Taft, Pershing, Brookhardt,
Groesbeck, and Carter Glass.
A comparison of The North Missis-
sippi Herald test vote with that con.
Quoted by Golfers, The National
Weekly, shows only slight differ
ences in city and rural voter senti-
ment. Golfers vote is representa-
tive of the city and large town vote
This newspapers test is representa-
tive of the smaller town and country
America choice.
Golfers vote showed Ford lead
ing Harding, approximately 8 to 2.
McAdoo third. Cox fourth, johnson
fifth Smith sixth and Hughes sew
enth. In this newspapers vote, Cox
and Hughes ran in tenth and elev-
enth places.
This final vote in The Nroth Mis-
sissippi Herald balloting is repre-
sentative of the sentiment throughout
the country at this time. 1t has
been conducted by Republican,
Democratic and Independent news
papers. Through this newspapers
membership in the Publishers Auto
Caster Service of New York it was
in position to conduct this contest.
The voting was steady throughout
the test, the lineup of the candi-
dates being about the same at the
end as during the second week Of
voting.
The North Mississippi Herald in
presenting this exclusive story to its
readers feels that the test vote is an
accurate cross section Of American
political sentiment in 1928.
Answering the question we asked
June l-'whom do you want for
President?"- would Seem-
Ford or Harding.

WOMEN VOTERS
NOW ON TRIAL
Octogenarian Expresses Faith
In Result of Women's Bal
lots, But Admonishes Them
to Be Cautious And Careful.

A Jackson correspondent to the
Memphis Commercial Appeal, last
week gives an account of what the
new political ententes (women) of
that city were doing in their clubs
to obviate making any mistakes in
their participation at the ballot box,
that sacred prerogative which re-
Gently by due process of law was en-
trusted to their keeping.
'Tis well that some of their sex
seem, by this move, to apprehend the
grave responsibilities thrust upon
them by the majority of their stall
wart contemporaries. AS old Tom
Jenkins used to say in the mining
district of California where rattlers
were thicker than grasshoppers in
harvest field, "Be careless boys,
there's danger ahead" There is one
prominent feature of truth in this
move of the Club women, it evidently
shows that they are not placing their
faith altogether in the leadership
that gave them birth in this new
field of service in the worlds affairs.
It may be truly said that women are
great deal more suspicious than
men-and they have a perfect right
to be for men have made them so.
This article is not intended in
the least to inveigh against good in
tentions, far from it. You have been
admitted as ambassadors into the
civic affairs of the commonwealth as
remedial agents for setting better
purer standards in governmental
affairs. So, in Heavens name, don't
let the communicating influences Of
political excitement deter you from
the high calling entrusted to your
hands. So /, as an octogenarian,
heartily endorse the efforts these
Club women of our Capital City have
in view, of not letting fallacious
sentiment, so prevalent in poliics,
override sound judgement.
All factions in this campaign are
clamoring for the same kind of Of
ficials from top to bottom for the
next administration of our state.
IT'S said you hold the key of the
situation as jurymen in the box.
The writer's mind and heart is wholly
wiah you in giving out on the 7th.
day of August a clean-cut verdict
that only clean hands can render.
The job is one that our wisest
statesmen have erred in, and don't be
too sanguine. The writer feels that
you have in the field of aspirants
from governor down, good material
to select from. In doing your first
work of demonstration adopt the old
Tennessee statesman's advise and if
success attends your landable efforts,
all good citizenship will join in the
chorus of "Well done good and
faithful"

however, pol1t1caI observers say
that Ford win have to run on an
Independent or third party ticket II
ne makes the race at all. The Re-
pnoiicans are virtually committed to
the denomination Of President Hard
ing. The Democratic leaders obvi-
ously do not want Ford. That is the
situation as The North Mississippi
herald's final vote shows Henry Ford
virtual 2 to choice of voters
throughout the country.
Harding Finishes Strong.
The biggest development in the
closing days of The North Missis-
sppi Herald voting was the swing
to Harding which followed his trip
and speeches across country on
his way to Alaska The Presidents
assurance of the G. o. P. nomination
gives him strength not indicated
IN this vote. With the party organ
ization back Of him and Ford re-
jected by the Democrats and maybe
on an independent ticket, the off,
cial race would likely show entirely
different figures for reader perusal.
Ford showed unusual strength in
all parts of the country. He car
ried Florida, Oklahoma. Pennsyl-
vania, Minnesota, South Dakota,
Nebraska, South Carolina, North
Carolina, Missouri, Michigan, Colo
RADIO, Arkansas, Idaho, Connecticut,
Montana, Virginia, Kentucky, Mis-
sissippi, Alabama, Indiana, Iowa,
Texas, Georgia, North Dakota and
Tennessee.
President Harding carried New
York, Maryland, Illinois, Ohio, Wis
consin, New Hampshire, Massachu-
setts, California and Maine. The
President led Ford by more than
5000 votes in New York, but both
were led by Governor Al Fl. Smith,
(Democrat), who polled 43,571 of
the 81,319 votes there.
AL Smith of New York is in third
place, still the national strength of
McAdoo shows that the race be-
tween these two for the Democrotic
nomination is going to be hot one.
McAdoo polled a consistent vote
throughout the country and speci-
ally in the Democratic South. Smith
votes were more scattered, his New
York vote being his chief source of
strength.
LaFolletts and johnson
In the Republican ranks, too, a
similar condition exists. Hiram
Johnsons showing throughout the
country was second to President
Harding. Still LaFollette with big
votes in Minnesota, Wisconsin and
Montana polled about hundred
more than did Johnson, putting him
in sixth place.
The vote cast for Former Presi-
dent wilson was more in the nature
Of q compliment, inasmuch as he
will not be a candidate. The early
vote showed a Wilson strength
which gradually disappeared as vot-
ers became interested.
Underwood votes came mostly
from the South but showed a wider
range than merely favorite son SEN
