During the forthcoming months
when cases of influenza will increase
in number, it is we'll to be on guard
against this disease. Avoid needless
contact with others, especially peo-
pie who are coughing. 1t is not rat
ional, however, to become panicky
or to attempt to avoid infection in
too elaborate ways. Experience in
previous epidemics has taught some
valuable lessons. The closing of pub
lie schools has not been effective ir
checking the spread of influenza
Relatively simple hygienic practices
and rules of life are the most help
full. 1t is very important to guard
against fatigue and to get plenty of
sleep and rest. Eating a well-balanced
diet and drinking plenty of water
also are advised.
The persons who try to keep on
their feet and 'stick it out" are those
who contribute the greatest number
to the death rolls.

kudzu Should Be
Planted In March
And April
Rows Should Be Spaced
Is Feet Apart Says
County Agent

To secure a good stand of Kudzu
it is necessary that the farmer set
his plants on a well prepared, firm
and flat seed bed in March or April.
Under no condition should the seed
lings be planted on beds that are
loose and srongy.
When preparing land for Kudzu,
space rows about rs feet apart. Open
a deep furrow and apply two tons
of manure or 200 pounds of super
phosphate per acre and cover this By
blowing approximately six burrows
to it, forming a broad flat bed.
Harrow or drag these beds down
until they are approximately flat.
1t is best to prepare the beds in
the fall or early winter so that the
ground will be well settled before
planting time. Where the beds have
yet to be prepared, it is important
to harrow, roll or otherwise cult
vate the ground to produce a firm
seed bed as it is important to the
successful establishment of the
plants.
Paintings along large gullies or
r~oadbanks should be made in well
prepared highly fortified rows par
allied there to. Rows should be far
enough from the gully or roadside
to allow cultivation with a pillow. In
areas where the preparation of a
plant is impossible, plant in well
prepared hills.
The success obtained with Kudzu
is usually measured by the care
with which the seedlings are planted.

Gov. Johnson Appoints
Coordinotors For SeIectiye
Service Program

Governor Paul B. Johnson today
announced that the coordinators re-
quired for the Selective Service pro-
gram in Mississippi have been ap-
pointed and are now functioning un-
der the authority of Major General
Thomas J.. Grayson, State Director.
MI. Bob Brown is serving as chief
coordinator with offices at State
Headquarters of Selective Service.
Associated with him are Major J. E.
Miller, 1t. Carter Stirling and Chas.
H. benson of jackson; f. L. Booth
of Kosciusko; Hammond H. Hinton,
Jr. of Hattiesburg; and Geo. r. High
tower of Stanton.
Selection Of these coordinators is
in keeping with the desire of Nat
ional Headquarters to insure smooth
and even operation of the Selective
Service program. The coordinators
will advise local boards on matters of
policy, assist them in the solution of
their particular problems and make
recommendations to State Headquar-
tiers on the bass of the information
they receive in visiting the local
boards.
Activities of the cordinators in
connection with the local boards
closely resemble those of the mem
bers of the 'field section" of Nat
ional Headquarters who consult with
State Selecive Service Headquarters
on details of administration.

Cord Of Thanks

We, the family of Mrs. Florence
c. Howard wish to take this method
TO thank our many friends, relatives
and neighbors for their kindness,
sympathy, cards and beautiful floral
offerings during the brief illness and
death of our beloved mother. We
thank Rev. Haynie, Nets, Lewis
and Weaver for their ~consoling
words as well as the doctors and
nurses who ministered so faithfully
to our mother and we feel that eY-
erything that could be done was done.
also want to thank the Southern
Undertaking Company, the United
Daughters of the Confederacy for
their Courteous Service and everyone
with whom we came in contact in our
hours of distress.

In the death of Mrs L. p. Howard
deepest gloom has permeated the very
hearts and souls of those who knew
and loved her.
When a great and noble spirit like
that possessed by Mrs. Howard takes
into flight, the hearts of all who she
touched day by day are saddened in
deed. The world was made stronger,
happier and better by her pure, true
and noble womanhood.
How glorious to know that there
is no death-the immortal never
desc while earth is deprived of
her rich and beautiful life, the beau
tiful Somewhere is enriched by the
transition we call death, which claim
ed this beloved friend and mother.
Like a weary child at close OF, day,
she went to sleep. All pain, gone, her
soul effulgent with joy and hope,
was lulled to sleep by the music of
the Choir Invisible and her spotless
spirit wendell its way to the Celes-
tial City.
Her life was one Of service. OF
love and of sacrifice. beautiful in
its modesty and grand and gloriously
rich in worthwhile virtues.
The crushed hearts of the ones
who loved her so tenderly find COM
fort in the memory of what she in
years meant to them.
"You may break, you may shatter
the vase if you will
Yet the scent of the rose will cling
to it still"
These memories sweeten the bitter
cups and hope leads on to the glorious
reunion, when we too have Crossed
the Bar"

minals; (2) that they have ample
terminal capacity, provided freight is
unloaded promptly on arrival; 81
that with this line haul capacity and
terminal capacity and with equipment
as of May. 1899, the railroads could
handle 25 per cent more traffic than
was moving at that time; and "a
that by extensive repairs of idle
equipment they could handle as per
cent more traffic than was moving
then.
THAT finding was put to the test
following the outbreak of war in
Europe in September, 1889. Freight
traffic on American railroads went
up faster in a shorter period than
ever before. Equipment repairs we're
undertaken, but by October, 1889,
before the repair program could
be completed, the railroads actually
had to handle 55 per cent o
traffic than they handled in May.
They did it-and without congestion
or delay.
The start of the defense program
in this country in 1910 naturally
raises the question of how the rail
roads are set to meet further pos
sible increases in demands for trans
portation. That question can be
answered by comparing conditions
now and in 1918, when the United
States was at war. Cars are bigger
and better. locomotives are more
powerful and more efficient, freight
trains are faster, and railroad eff
ficiency as measured by the service
performed per freight train hour is
more than double what it was in
1918.
Congestion on the railroads dur
ing the first World War was not a
breakdown of the railroads as trans
portation machines. That congestion
occurred because shippers and re-
.ceivers of freight were using rail

ton. This won't happen again be-
cause of the improvement the rail
roads have made in their operations
and also because the government it
self is better organized to make
the best use of the railroads"
Louis Johnson, then assistant sec.
of war, was quoted as making
this authorized statement concern
ing the railroads in April, 1910, "We
in the War Department have full
confidence in the innate capacity,
in the cooperative spirit, in the alb
ility and in the patriotism of our
railroads to cope successfully with
