A special musical program has also been arranged for evening WHEN Is Found In Ice Cream It isn't the quantity of food you eat that keeps you in good health, yet maintains your figure within the limits set by dame fashion it's the quality and variety.

Strict dieting, If faithfully adhered to, does take off excess pounds, but the practice is decidedly dangerous and costly if it's deficient from a nutritional standpoint. Your body, to remain sound and healthy, absolutely demands certain essential vitamins, as well as muscle building, tissue building, heat producing, bone building, and other foods, and should you attempt to "fool nature" with a diet not giving you these essential foods you are going to suffer for your action in some form or other possibly run-down condition, susceptibility to tuberculosis, lack of energy, weak or sore eyes or even blindness, "soft" teeth, or the like. Instead of trying any radical 18-day diets, for instance, Milo Hastings, director of the Physical Culture Food Research Laboratory, suggests a pint of ice cream, bran, and leafy salads with mineral-oil dressing. Of this diet a half pint of Ice cream will supply you with as much calcium for your teeth and bones as one and one half pounds of bread, four pounds of meat or three and one-half pounds of potatoes. The pint of ice cream will supply you with vitamin which builds up resistance against disease and prevents eye trouble; vitamin which prevents such diseases as beri-beri; vitamin which cures scurvy; vitamin the "sunshine" vitamin, which aids the body in ut ilizing calcium and phosphorus for proper bone and teeth formation, and vitamin which cures pellagra.

And further, the ice cream in all its goodness, will aid to satisfy an appetite that is crying out against a reduced food intake. In other words, it satisfies, and yet it's not fattening. duction of the melodrama will be hilarious for the cast as well as the audience.

Gathering up as many things as they could possibly carry with them, they fled to the nearest neighbor's house, which was the home of Hi Eastland.

From there, they could hear the loud laughing and talking of the Union men, the barking of the dogs, and the frightened Jabbering of the slaves. Elvira, a girl only 17, stood at the window. She, too, could hear the merry-making of the soldiers. Then, she saw her ancestral home burst into flames, and heard the frightened yowling of the blooded negro-dogs as they were thrown into the greedy flames by the soldiers, who laughted In ghoulish glee every time they tossed another one in. Finally, Elvira could stand it no longer.

Grabbing her blue bon net, she flew down the steps and up the path, stopping long enough to arm herself with an old fence rail lying near. She met two of the Union men. who tried the stop her and one was rewarded with a blow over the head from her trusty wea pon. On she ran, with her long plaid skirt gathered around hex slim ankles, on to the spot where once naa been her home. Then, breath lessly she stopped and looked about her.

She heard a faint, "quack, quack." Turning, she saw her fa vorite pet, Lizzie the goose, stand ing in the edge of the heap of ashes. She grabbed at the goose, but succeeded In getting only one of its legs, as a Union soldier had pounced upon it and was holding fast to the other leg of the fowl But Elvira would not let go. May be it was all that was left, but nev ertheless, it belonged to her. Poor Goose Parted She tugged at it, pulling with all her strength, while the Union soldier did likewise. It was a close fight.

Finally, the poor goose, over come by the strain, gave complete away, leaving the Union soldier holding to one half of its lifeless body, and Elvira still firmly hold Ing on to her half of "Poor Lizzie.

Jack was heard to remark that he and his father killed from 75 to 100 Yankee soldiers poor recompense, he de clared, for the destruction of the old ancestral home, the mental an guish his mother and sisters en dured, and the loss of his fine stable of racers and blooded negro dogs. When the war closed and the fathers and sons sadly returned to their homes at Hillsboro, the town presented a desolate appearance. The slaves were freed; public buildings, mills, gins, taverns, and homes were In ashes; fences were down, outhouses had decayed and fallen: there was little or no livestock left by the marauding armies. It was too late to make a crop that year. Many heart-breaking scenes were encted when loved ones met surveyed the wrecks of their homes, and bravely planned to meet with fortitude the long years of reconstruction ahead of them.

HI By MRS. W. W. BRIDGES FOREST. May 1.

Eight miles north of Forest lies the peaceful village of Hillsboro. with a population of about 150 souls. It is difficult to believe that before the War Between the States. Hillsboro, then the county seat, was a prosperous town of 1,500 people. It had an active, thrifty.

Intelligent population, an exceptionally fine local bar, good church and fine school facilities; also open saloons, a race course, and ten pin alley. It had soma fifteen or more stores, a majority being conducted by Jews, rure dgn of a live and prosperous community. Several times the Union armies passed through the country, and each time waste and destruction followed In their paths. In the latter part of April, 1863, General Orierson. acting under Instructions from General Grant reached Scott county on his raid through Mississippi.

His forces destroyed everything which lay In their path. Nine months later. General Sherman passed through Scott county on his first raid from Vlcksburg to Meridian. Although It was his general plan to follow the railroad, he passed through the county at Hllsboro, leaving destruction and ruin wherever his men were led. They broke Into the peaceful surroundings of the southern plantations, frightening the women and children.

They drank the wine of. the "master," devoured the food that the family was trying to save, for then food was scarce. They tore Into pieces the furniture, ripped open the feather-beds and spilled their contents to the four winds, and then before going on their way, set fire to the home of the ecu them family, leaving only the ashes to tell the story. Am he went on his march, some of the soldiers stumbled upon the home of Hardy, a lovely colonial homestead at Hillsboro. They made their way over the green, sloping lawn, up to the large white mansion.
