Gated to stop burning off the land
we will have a richer heritage to
leave after we have passed on.
Furthermore, if they could be
made to realize the Importance of
keeping fire out of the woods
when they are burning off a fielo
it would be a great improvement.
But you cunnof keep a burning
field under control if you set il
on a day when there is q high
wind.
On Friday, March 2. tn ere
were 35 forest fires going at one
time in Holmes county. Fire crews
fought IL of these after dark. In
fact they fought fire until $50
o'clock Saturday morning-and
by 900 am. Saturday there were
! eight new fires going strong.
The only way to stop these de-
| structive fires is by every citizen
J in the county becoming fire-con-
! scious . and to educate his
neighbors on the subject.
The man who sets a fire, wheth-
er he knows it or not, is robbing
future generations of their birth
right - and a lot of these people
put together mean a threat to the
future of our country econ
omically and politically.
For in America, like through
out the world, if want and pow
erty come in there also will COM
munism move.
We could plaster the country
side with signs, as / heard one
speaker suggest this week, that
Those who set fires help the
communists" But that is hardly
practical.
Instead I suggest that every one
of us appoint ourselves a guar
dian of the future of our coun-
TRY by resolving to do everything
we can to protect and improve its
soil, its forests and woodlands, to
stop forest fires.
There's a big job to be done -
and every one of us a have a
part.

Bob Morrow TuIks On
Problems Arising
From Communists

R. D. Bob" Morrow, one of
Mississippi's most widely known
citizens, addressed members of
the Lexington Rotary club Tues
day on the problems that are aris-
ing throughout the world due to.
the rise and spread of commun-
ism.
Mr.. Morrow, for many years
active in the American Legion
and now delegate to the National
Council, said be believes COM
munism is a disease of mems
minds. He said it is nothing new
that it has been tried many
times before and every time it
has failed.
MOI Convinced
He said that he is not convinced
that the majority of Russians
want communism and won't be,
until the day they hold a really
free" election. But, he pointed
out, the active minority of Com
munists have been able to control
g large country like Russia be-
cause they have been organized
to do SO and work at it.
Mr. Morrow emphasized the inn
portance of maintaining u strong
ecenomy-iR this eoaHsfy@He--eaid
communism does not have a
chance in a well populated coun-
try which has a fairly good stand
ard of living.
Keep Economy Strong
He said we must keep our eco
nomy strong and safeguard the
soil from which the roots of our
civilization spring.
Trees are not just timber" he
said, "but a safeguard against the
soil being washed away. At the
rate u soil is being depleted
now, it won't be long before it is
gone" he continued.
Save the soil and you save
America" he said.
Individual and personal free
dom are of all Importance, he
said, and warned that Americans
should ever be vigilant in pro-
tecting their individual freedom.

franklin Woman
Passes In 9Sth Year
Sue Halle N. brennan
Rites Held Monday

NlIS. Que IldlllC sNoSl DICillidIi.
81, beloved Franklin resident, died
Sunday, March 4, at 4 am,
scarcely 80 hours after entering
Community hospital. Mrs. Dren-
nan, a true pioneer, remained in
good spirits until death came, and
even recounted tales of old Texas,
where she had lived as a young
bride. Throughout her life, the
keen wit and amazing memory
with which she related these tales,
brought much laughter and enjoy
ment to both herself and the lis
tener.
Mrs. brennan had enjoyed good
health until falling and breaking
a leg four years ago, since which
time she was bed-ridden. She be-
came ill last Friday and entered
the hospital at 1926 pm. On
Saturday she received visitors and
though weak, asked for magazines
and scissors with which to work
on scrapbooks, which for years
had been an active hobby.
One of her most treasured pos
sessions was a collection of more
than 100 dolls, which she had ac-
cumulated through the years,
some of which had been sent her
from foreign countries when an
odd or unusual one was run a.
cross in the travels of relatives or
friends. These she dressed. show
ed, and talked about with great
interest and pride.
Born in Holmes county near
Franklin on Oct. 80, 1853, she was
the daughter of William and
Paulin Noel, pioneer
settlers of the county, and was a
young girl during the Civil War.
She was married to John E. Dren-
nan, and as a bride. moved to
Texas to a place near San An
tonic. She later related tales OF
living in tents, using the ground
for a floor, while her husband
taught school.
Moving back to Mississippi in
an ox-drawn covered wagon as
a young housewife with several
children, she settled again in
Franklin where her husband
farmed and was bookkeeper for
the late j. M. Powers, until his
death about 80 years ago. Though
a staunch member of the Pres
byterian church and a steady
church-goer, her activities were
mainly of the home, taking care
of her family, working her gar
den, making scrapbooks, and col
lecting dolls. In recent years she
was bothered with failing hearing
and eyesight, though her health
remained good.
Mrs. brennan leaves three
daughters: Miss Mabel brennan
and Miss ELIZABETH brennan, both
of the home, Franklin, and Mrs.
Emily Mothershed. E benezer
three sons, Noel brennan, Frank
lin, N. P. brennan, Lexington,
and Billy brennan of Ebenezer:
one half-sister, Mrs. M. j. Lipsey
of Lexington; one half-brother,
James L. Noel, Pilot Point, Texas:
seven grandchildren, and four
great-grandchildren.
Funeral services were conduct
ed from Southern Funeral home az
10 am. Monday, with burial in
Franklin cemetery. The Rev.
Hayes Clark, pastor of Lexington
Presbyterian church officiated in
the last rites.
Mrs. brennan was thought to
be the oldest woman in Holmes
county,

Designers Enhance Summer Furniture
By GIodys Miller
Secretary. New York Chapter, Ameriean
Institute of Decorators.

Secretary, New York Chapter, Amereon
Institute Of Decorators.
Not so long ago manufacturers
who made what is known as sum-
lner furniture and furnishings saw
ingenious decorators specifying
their wares for year-round use in
homes where funds were limited.
A few of them hired name de-
signers to explore the field, and
what they have developed is fas-
einating.
Now you'll find rattan. reed.
ashcraft and wicker used in every
room in the house and wrought
or cast iron, aluminium, chrome
as popular in the dining room as
on the front porch. In few in
stances, such furniture is sneak.
ing into the living room and bed
room. Once again this proves my
contention that usefulness de-
pends on suitability Of design.
Now these designers are giving
their attention to dexibility and
easy maintenance. Folding chairs
and tables which may be easily
moved from one place TO another
or stored in small available areas
are proving acceptable.
One new entrant is a folding
chair made in the Midwest. Blond
fir makes the frames, and water
proof spar varnish gives the shiny
finish. This is collapsible and.
since it weighs only is pounds, it
is easily portable. It is suitable
for indoor as we'll as outdoor use.
The simple tent-type uphol-
stery, so popular as a movie di-
rector's chair, is made of a woven
plastic. The pattern is a gay
multi-colored plaid. But what is
really important is that it is
stainproof and may be easily
cleaned with a damp soapy cloth.
The texture of this cloth and
the style of the chair gives it the
casual appearance. 1t looks per-
fectly at home with reed and rat
tan and with rush square floor
covering. But it needn't be con-
fined to this environment.
Avoid highly polished mahog-
any and deep piled Oriental rugs,
but use 1t with cotton shag rugs
Or plain, solid color broadlooms,
chintz curtains in plaids, stripes
or f1orals, and straight-line. mod
ern-style bleached or painted fur
niture if you don't want the light
but comfortable rattans.
It's an ideal chair for those who
