So You Have The Jitters?

"It is a gloomy moment in history. Not for many

never has the seemed ncalculable as at THIS
time In our own country universal commercial
prostration and panic and thousands OF our poorest

of it,
"In France the political caldron seethes and bub-
bles with uncertainty; Russia hangs usual, Ike
cloud, dark and silent upon the horizon OF Europe;
while all the energies, and influences OF the
British Empire are sorely tried and yet to be tried
more sorely, in coyng with the vast and deadly dis
turbed relations in China.

indifferencewhich, happily no man pretends to feel

1t may be surprising to to know that others

1t is refreshing to know that the people of our

Mississippi Needs Her Sons
A week never passes that don't see in the state
papers some notice of the death of some prominent man
in some other state who born in Mississippi
We desire Of course success for every Mssssippian
who leaves his native home for other states But the
thing we deplore is the large number who go.
Mississippi needs her native sons today more tnan
ever before She needs the energies and talents OF
every citizen to cope with present-day conditions and
keep our state on its present progressive program
Nowhere in the United States is there more oppor-
tunty for advancement and development and service
than in our own Mississippi And every Mississippan
should want to have his part in bringing about the
greatness all desire
