Some of us are not so sure just why Mr. Mallory of Selma, and Mr. Ward of Birmingham suddenly turned to be the "champions of the Peepul." We are wondering if one stung by a "political bee." So far as not one worthwhile reason has been League" why this bond issue is not needed. They have not offered any feasible plan to supplant the one they are trying to defeat Alabamians are ashamed and tired of knowing that list of states educationally speaking, and they are going to pass this bond issue as a means of remedying this condition, regardless of the propaganda irsued forth from the headquarters of The Greenville Advocate has the ing up of the white way at Greenville pointer bird pup.

30 New Orleans police were notified Sunday that Henry Moity, alleged slayer of his wife and sister-in-law, had been captured at Cutt Off, La. Edward J. Smith, of the New Orleans detectives, in sending the report said Moity had confessed and implicated his brother Joseph, who is in custody here, as an accessory. Chief Smith said Moity was arrested on the freighter Gem Sunday ntorning when the boat docked at Cut Off. Moity is charged with having killed his wife, Mrs.

Theresa Moity and his sister-in-law, Mrs. Leonide Lee Moity, wife of Joseph Moity, last Thursday. The bodies dissected, were found stuff ed in trunks in a French quarter tene ment house. Joseph Moity, in charging his brother, Henry, with the crime, assigned jealousy as the motive. This Dust thrill awaits the people of Evergreen if "The lighting of the white way last Thursday evening marked a high point in the progressive city administration.

One might say it marked a "bright spot." And nothing that has been done was quite so modestly executed. Never was there so great a thing in the history of the old town done so The mayor and the members of the council instructed the fore- i man of the construction crew which erected the white way to turn the lights on at six o'clock, allowing plenty of time for darkness to come before the blaze of illumination was switched on. When the lights came on the people of the city got a real thrilL Expecting1 the opening of the white way at some indefinite time, the citizenry i was unprepared for the light that came unexpectedly, but the marvel of the white way is still keeping Greenville up until late at night, and on Commerce street." get a system of White Way lights they will cost later.

PLAY FAIR WITH US It is inconceivable that business of this community into "buying at and thus inspire loyalty to local institutions give their printing of envelopes to the Federal government. In ether words, we are asked to off-set outside competition for local business houses, and then find that "buy at home" does not apply to the local printer, COUNTY AGENT NOTES The next cooperative hog sale will be held at Evergreen on Tuesday, November 15th. All persons having hogs for this sale should advise the County Agent so that sufficient cars can be placed for shipping them. Farmers are badly in need of more pure bred foundation stock in the herds as indicated by the great number of scrub hogs that have been sold at the sales.

The quality of hogs in these sales has not been up to the standard of sales in previous years. To remedy this situation it is necessary to put more pure bred hogs on the farms as foundation stock. I have arranged with the Alabama Experiment Station for 30 to 40 pure bred Duroc Jersey and Poland China pigs at 10.09 each for the whole lot un-crated or $12.00 each in small lots crated. Registration papers and transfers will be furnished. These pigs are from the station herd at Auburn, and represent some of the best blood lines of the breeds.

All persons interested in getting some of these pigs should see me or send check right away before they are all sold. The first car of Government war explosive, Pyrotol has arrived at Monroeville for distribution to farmers in the South west Alabama counties. The price is $11.00 per hundred pounds delivered. Caps and fuse can also be had at wholesale prices. Ar rangements have been made with the Newport Tar and Turpentine Company at Pensacola to buy all sound stump wood at prices that will more than pay the expenses of blasting and shipping.

This is possibly the best oppon' nity farmers will have in many years to purchase explosive at little ost for stumping and land clearing, an dispose of the surplus wood at a price that will pay the cost of the work. Now is the time to place orders with the County Farm Bureau for all this explosive needed. On many farms there a-e stumps that have been cultivated for ten years or longer, and they have never produced a crop yet. This should be sufficient time to convince any person that the stumps are worthless other than their value for kindling or tar wood, and it is necessary to get them out before they can be used in any way. Stumps stand in the way of the use of improved machinery, requiring more laborf or cultivation, and increase the cost of crop production.

They also harbor many injurious insects such as boll weevils in winter. Fall and Monroeville-Evergreen Bus Line SCHEDULE Lv. Monroeville, 7:45 a. 1:30 p. Lv.

We find that the very people whose causes we espouse in our editorials discriminate against us by placing their business outside.

It is obvious if the Post Office Department manufactured articles in your line and sold them to the public at prices that your firm could not meet, you would soon become vitally interested in opposing government competition. Your firm pays commercial prices for every other commodity produced in this community, but turns to the government to supply the printing of envelopes that are available from your home town printer at fair prices and immediate delivery. At a recent meeting of 160 trade associations in Washington it was said that "the government engages in competition predicated upon an incomplete and improper basis of coBt accounts, which competition is grossly tnfair, for, in addition to such method of accounting, it pays no taxes, carries no insurance, provides for neither obsolescence or amortization, borrows more cheaply than the private individual, and meets the deficits and losses out of the pocket of its own victims, its It is, therefore, essential and it is the key to this whole problem, that we help one another with this problem."
