Deer
Holmes
by CHESTER MARSHALL

A noticeable improvement IN
Lexington is the widening OF
Telegraph Street that passes
in front of the new Library
building, which brings up talk
about one of our pet subjects,
that of street Improvements in
the city of Lexington. We need
them and need them bad.
We understand some work is
going to be done on North Vine,
the street that passes in front
of the Commodity house. And
if ever a street needed Someth-
ing done to it. that one does, be-
cause on ''ration days, its
almost impossible to go up that
street.. Since a new business
has located next door to Spot
Cash Tire Co., here is an even
greater need for improvement.
But one of the streets that
needs widening more than any
is Pine Street which runs in
front of the high school and
the north side of the Grammar
School. It is one of the main
streets of town and is in a
state of congestion whenever
school is taking in or being dis
missed. It would also help if
the power company or tele-
phone Co. Tor whoever owns
the pole directly in front of the
high school would move it to
where it would not interfere
with parking.

Dereck johnson Is A.
Consistent Winner

son of Mr.. and Mrs. Deck
Johnson of Durant, stands at
the head of the class, raising
show cattle.
Last Week, for the second
year in a row, his Polled Here
ford, was awarded the Grand
Champion trophy at the South
east Miss. Livestock Show at
Forrest. To top the prizes, he
also showed the Reserve Cha
mpion Hereford.
An outstanding member of the
All Club for about three years
now, Dereck has been a con-
Sistant winner at shows throu-
ghout this session. He has rib
bons of all description to prove
it. Cattle raising is his main
project, and the success he's
having at shows could probably
sway him to stick to cattle
when he grows up in addition
to following in his fathers foot
steps as an oil distributor. He
keeps his cattle on his grand
fathers farm Mr.. w. E. Wig
ley near Postum Neck.
A 7th grade student, Dereck
will one day don the green and
white football uniform of the
Tiger varsity team. He plays
left tackle on the Pee Wees
and also plays basketball in
season. He is a member of
Durant Boy Scout Troop 70 and
is an assistant patrol leader.
On Sundays you'll find him at
Sunday School at the Durant
Baptist Church.
Getting back to his recent
laurels. he Grand Champion
bull weighed in at 1860 pounds
and was Is months old. The
Reserve champion, IA months
old, weighed 972.

Take a trip to the different
towns in the county and you
viii notice a large number of
children under the age of Is
driving automobiles. Not only
in the towns but out on the high
ways, too. A state law plainly
states that drivers licenses can
not be issued until a person
reaches age Is. It is hard to
understand how respectable,

decent, law-abiding citizens
will permit their children to
drive without a license. It is
the fault of the parents, as well
as law-enforcement agencies.
This practice is not only en-
dangering the lives of their
children, but it is endangering
the lives of other people and
their property.
We think it is high time that
our police officers clamp down
on this practice. A few arrests
and fines would do a lot to
stop it.
