bered word. After you have
finished all 10 questions, check
against the answers below.
Score 10 points for each cor
rect answer. A score of 100 per
cent is excellent. But if you
score so or below. get out the
dictionary and do some home
work.

parodied passion Of Carmen"
Between these the "Cyrano" is
the more dramatic for Q pinch
of mockery In its wistfulness,
and Mourning" the merrier for
Miss Charisse's sweetly poison
GUS smile.
The choreography Of each Of
the four dances is the work Of
M. Petit, one Of the highest
and wittieSt stylistS In the art
of matching movement and mu-I
sic. The latter. he Is always
aware. is susceptible Of q num-
Der of variations. Of altered In
tensities to express the art Of
the choreographer while retain
ing q respect for that Of the
composer.
These two, music and move
ment, are the keystone ele-
ments Of BLACK Tights" as Of
course they must be.
Yet, it is O part Of M. Petit's
theory that they can always
use the enrichment Of the cos
tuner and the set designer. As
costumers In the Dupont film.
he has turned to such con-
temporary geniuses as Yves st.
Laurent, Georges Wakhevitch,
and Spain's Anton Clave. Each
is given permission to go the
limit, obviously on NJ. Petit's
premise that this Is o movie.
will attract Q huge audience,
and thus permits the most ex-
travagant of budgets for the
films ornamentation, Of both
dancers and the stages on
which they viii work.
In each of his major bal
.lerinas, Jeanmaire In ''The Dia-
mond Cruncher"' and Carmen,
Miss Shearer in "Cyrano," and
Miss Charlse in The Merry
Mourning" the Petit discrimi-
nation was never more evident.
It Is only natural that Of his
three co-stars. the most per-
fectly matched in style and
psyche should be Jeanmaire.
They make the Carmen" q
Petit staple with o new radi-
ance, perhaps the most memoir
able Of the four dances Of the
film. None Of the others, how
ever, suffers by comparison. the
romantic ''Cyrano" or THE
Merry Mourning" especially.

Corn Production
Is Up In Holmes

Corn production is up in
Holmes County to 44.3 bu-
shells per acre, according to
the state reporting service
produced under the U. S.
Department of Agriculture.
The 44.3 figure for Holmes
County is up considerably
over average production fiji
teen years ago = only l4R
bushels per acre.
Top county in the state in
corn yield was Coahoma
County with an average OF
50.4 bushels per acre. Coaho-
ma. however, planted only g.
800 acres in corn, while Hol-
mes County farmers planted
1900 acres.
Issaquena County was Sec
ond in the state in corn yield
with 50.3 bushels per acre on
1000 acres.
Neighboring Madison Coun-
ty planted $500 acres in
corn and averaged 42.3 bu-
shells per acre while Yazoo
County planted 10000 acres
and averaged 40.3 bushels.
Prospects Good"
Prospects for another good
crop wear are still good, ac-
cording to reports of the
County Agent and other ex-
tension personnel. Two weeks
ago they were regarded as
excellent"
Both pastures and corn are
suffering now from lack OF
rain and cotton also needs a
rain. If the county does not
get a rain in four or five days
the 1862 yields will definite
W be cut, the County Agent
said.

Are you one of those people
who thought the past week
end was the hottest in the
ear?
If so, you were absolutely
right.
And Monday was even hot
ter.
A high of SO was recorded
on Monday.
After four straight days of
96 - and this was last Thurs
day, Friday, Saturday and
Sunday = the thermometer
jumped to SO on Monday, the
hottest day officially record
ed this year.
On Tuesday it dropped back
down to 95 and Wednesday
promised to be about the
same.

ing still had not brought any
badly needed rain to this sec
ton. A few small drops fell
in the vicinity of the Holmes

miles northwest of Lexington,

And in case you've forgot
ten how long it has been since
it rained - it was Thursday
night, June %, when 10 was
recorded from 900 p. m. until
shortly af' er midnight.
Pastures and corn through
out the entire county are suf-
fering because of the lack OF
moisture - and cotton needs
a rain, too. If we don't get a
good rainfall within the next
four or five days crop pro-
ruction will definitely be cut.

some sixty to seventy people
have secured quality pigs to
upgrade their swine produc-

sales may be held in Holmes
County regularly when pro-

program successfully, he said.
Rotarian Henri P. Watson,

vorably received in that area.
He said he thought they
would be looking toward the
south for feeder cattle.

90 per day or $14,850.00 per
month. This is nearly $780,
600 per year and sale of
calves bring income well over
that figure. In Mississippi as
a whole, dairying is a $50 mil
lion industry.
Mississippi as a whole is
18th in the nation in the num-
Der of cattle, and 18th in the
number of beef cattle.
County Agent W. R. Sulli-

We would say that all citi-
zens of Holmes County can
share in the pride of the thriv
ing and ever growing agri-
cultural economy which we
have here.
