URGED
WHEN BURNING GRASS

Some of the people in Hol-
mes County have the idea
that they are not allowed by
law to burn off their own
land. This is not the case, ac-
rording to Holmes County
Forester E. P. Mcmillan.
Even though the Mississip-
pi Forest Service definitely
does not advise landowners
10 burn off their land at any
tine, there are exceptions
which call for such action.
In this case Mr. Mcmillan
said you have the right to
hurn off your land SO long as
the fire does not spread to
The land of another. The fire
rhould be watched and kept
Under control at all times.
Mr.. Mcmillan makes the
following suggestions on

GROUND-HOG SEES


The grounding emerged
from winter sleep Monday,
February End and according
10 superstition, retired to his
burrow for six more weeks of
winter.
Monday was a clear cold
beautiful day. This associa-
ton of the grounding with
Candlemas Day is an Ameri-
can variation of the tradition
long widespread in the Chris
tian world that a sunny Can
dlemas precedes a cold
spring.
1t is reflected in the Scot
fish saying: IF Candledas is
fair and clear, there will be
two winters in the year"
And in an American maxim:
February second day, have
half your corn and half your
hrs"

for snake. In our book, however, we
consider SNAKE too polite a term. A

General Pat Wilson is quite cap

writer of anonymous messages that
the letter without a signature denotes
the complete absence of character and
intelligence on the part of the writer
and entities him to the geological clas-

Editor Jimmy Robertson of The Mis-
sissippian was also the object of an
anonymous letter circulated on the
University of Mississippi campus this
week = and not too long ago an anony-
nous letter was mailed out on station
cry of the Mississippi Sovereignty
Commission.
1t is time for all decent citizens
to speak out against such outrages.
Anonymous letter writer's are a
special breed. The term Snake is too
good for them. They should be exter-

it's the New Frontier. There

Snake" Too Good
Anonymous Letter Writer'S = A Special Breed
Smoke" Too Good

Anonymous letters are the trade
mark of weak and cowardly persons
land are usually the product of a sick,
depraved mind.
One sign of the times we live in
today and indicative of its strife and
tensions is the appearance more and
more of anonymous attacks upon per-
sons and groups who don't go along
with popular thinking, and those who
insist upon the right to do their own
thinking.
No person of honor or integrity
will make anonymously an attack upon
the character or motives of another in
dividual. No responsible newspape
will print such letters, even in its
letters to the editor column. No real
editor will permit his newspaper to be
used to impugn the honor or integrity
of others.
If a person or official is to be
criticized and there are times when
criticism is in the public interest, let
it be done openly and by one who is
man enough to stand on his own feet
and make the charges - not hide be-
hind initials or a faxed name.
So we are in complete agreement
with the denunciation of anonymous
letter writer's by Representative R. O.
Arlington of Copiah County on the
House floor Monday.
