You would like to have better
stock, wouldn’t you? Well, this
is the best time you will ever have
to vegin the work of improvement
and there are two things of prime
importance which you can do,
whatever else you may be unable
to accomplish. You can grow feed
crops for your stock this year,
and you can refrain from breeding
any animal of vyours to a scrub
sire. Even if it does cost a dollar
or two more and require a little
extra effort, don’t fail to breed to
to the very best sires within your
reach, If there are no good ones
within reach, go in with your
neighbors and get what you need,
You can do it and it will pay. How
is the livestock of the South to be
improved if you keep on aiding
scrubs of all sorts to perpetuate
their kind? Don’t do it any longer.

} Baccalaurate Services
The Baccalaureate services at
the Central Methodist church on
Sunday morning were of a high
!order of excellence, In union
‘there is strength and on this oc
casion most of the city churches
were represented in the pulpit and
the pew. Mr, E. J. Hammond of
the First Methodist church gave a
scholarly address, both appropri
ate and impressive. The subject,
“*Making Life a Success” is old,
and should be so, as old as human
eflort has been, but the treatment
was in no way trite and none could
have listened without pleasure and
profit, The speaker’s exemplary
life well known and beloved,
though his words might be but
few, simple and kindly would still
carry a conviction of truth, that
no higch flown burst of oratory
from the silver tongue of a stran
ger could ever convey.
- T'he Central Church choir al
ways good under its present lead
er Mr. Rawley, seemed at its best
and the solos of Miss Watkins’
and Miss Meyer and Mr. Rawley
merit ‘special praise. - .Altogether
the service was characterized by a
dignity and impressiveness that
make it one of value to the class
of 1912 and their many friends,

Opening Of The
Grand Opera House
The opening of the Grand Opera
House Saturday night was a screair=
ing success, the enormous seating
capacity of the building being taxed
throughout the evening. An extra
good vaudeville bill was employed
for the opening night, but no better
than that of last night, when the
house was also packed to the ut
most capacity. The managers of
Grand certainly give you vyour
money'’s worth, and it would be dif
ficult even in the larger cities to
see a better show for a dime. The
Vaudeville for the first three nights
this week consists of a team in
comedy singing and dancing, and
two singles. one of the singles is
Mr. Preston Register, a well known
Fitzgerald boy who has been on the
stage for two years and is now at
home visiting his parents. Pres
ton’s act of contortion last evening
brought forth wild applause, and
everyone is eager to see him to
night in a comedy act.
