by carnival on Saturday afternoon,
including parade, tournament and
sham battle. The Goddess of Liberty

Marsha, city of Sicily famous
for its wines, is for sale, its $4,000
inhabitants having placarded its
walls with the announcement that
they want to dispose of it because
they are unable to bear any longer
the burden of taxation imposed upon
them. They add, they hope to find
purchasers who can satisfy the Gu
pldity that lays waste the fair region
of Sicily, and that by emigrating in
body to Australia, they may escape
the pecuniary exactions to which
they have been exposed. Here is a
fine opportunity for some of the
heavy young men of Hagerstown.

GEORGIA RAISES cRIcKETs

Atlanta-(AP)-Cricket raising
is a booming business in this part
of the South. Fishermen say they
make fine bait. But wild crickets
are sometimes as hard to catch as
the fish.
Those who raise them sell them
for bait at a cent and a half a
cricket. Breeding stock brings
two cents.
George Smith, for instance, has
turned his backyard chicken
house into a cricket raising busi-
ness. He has 10000 breeders and
possibly total of 100000 crickets.
He hasn't counted them. They eat
laying mash just as his chickens
used to do. But the 16 bags a week
he used to buy for his chickens
would feed his crickets for 10
years.

Letters
Ocean Springs

EDITORS.
Chronicle Advertiser:
Will you please publish this
letter in answer to news articles
last week concerning the ap-
pointment of S. S. Wall to the
Ocean Springs school board.
One function of the City
Council is to appoint members
of the school board. We are Wit
ally interested in all matters
relative to the education and
development of the minds and
bodies of our children and in
appointing person to the
school board we do our best to
find one capable, with the nee
essary interest to raise the
standard of that important in
stitution. The Town Council
acting under this prerogative
selected S. S. Wall to serve on
the school board. | have no apol-
ogies whatsoever for this action
and were the situation to arise
again / would act in the same
manner.
The mayor and the city coun-
Gil knew that Mr.. Bilbo had re-
signed two or three weeks be-
fore the meeting that Mr.. Wall
was appointed and each had
ample time to consider the mat
ter of the new appointment.
There was a definite reason why
the appointment should be
made at the earliest possible
time as the fiscal year of the
school starts the first of July.
There is the matter of con-
tracts to be settled and the
school budget must be consid-
cred. To do this properly the
board should have full repre-
sentation. The matter of finan-
ces in our school are in need of
careful consideration. Last year
serves to prove that fact as the
budget called for expenditures
of $55,986, and actually in fact
has taken $58,649. The tax
structure of the Town of Ocean
Springs and School District is
such that this amount cannot be
allowed to continue. The people
of Ocean Springs are now car
rying a tax burden that must
and cannot be increased.
Mr.. Wall is a citizen and tax
payer of our town and is en-
titled to serve his community
if and when he is called upon.
Many unkind and false things
have been said about Mr.. Wall.
Accusation without evidence
becomes persecution. Certainly
in Ocean Springs we do not
want to be guilty of persecution.
Is it not true that this country
is spending billions of dollars
abroad to fight such acts as in
the cases of Mr.. Voegler and
Cardinal Midzenty?
1t is the obligation of each
member of the School Board to
see that the very best equipped
superintendent be appointed to
administer, without interfer-
ence, the affairs of the school.
| would like to assure Mr.. Ia
conf as superintendent of the
Ocean Springs schools that he
has my 100 per cent cooperation
and as councilman and for my
self / know he can and will give
us the kind of school we are
looking for and in voting for
Mr.. Wallis appointment this was
foremost in my mind.
