LOTSWORK UN POWERFUL CO LIN PLAYS Special To The Daily Enterprise SOUTHWEST COLLEGE, Nov. 17 Coach I. F. Fox has been putting his Southwest Pilots through rigorous workouts this week especially on a style to frustrate Co-Lin's offense and defense when the two teams clash Friday night in Wesson in their traditional game. With two weeks rest behind them, Coach Fox is reporting his proteges in perfect mental and physical condition.

No player is injured and none is sick. On Monday the Pilots studied Wesson plays. On Tuesday, the first string, using Southwest's defense, scrimmaged with the second team using Wesson's defense. This afternoon the first squad will use their own offense while battling their second team with Co-Lin's defense. Rivalry between Summit and Wesson datco back to agricultural high school days when there was never more than six points difference in the score.

Summit would like nothing better than to aip the olves Friday. It is her last game and it would give her a great season while throwing the conference championship in a very big squabble. With a natural let down likely since the hard game with, Goodman, Coach Hook Stone, reports from Wesson say, is not at all too confident of the Summit game although his team practically has the championship cinched. He says that Summit has the most Improved team in the conference since its opening, and one has only to look at the Pilot games during the past month to sea just what he means. "With part of his men injured previously," a Wesson sports writer gays," the Summit coach had hard going, especially in view of the fact that it is his first year in the circuit, but now that his men are all back in shape, he is expecting to give the Wolves their greatest game of the Coach Fox will probably use Washburn at center instead of Maroun, he said this morning.

HOLMES, Dealer it 11 Pike, the youngest of the ter ritorial counties, established in 1815, was the 14th county in Mississippi when this state admitted to the union, according to Walker Wood, Mississippi sec- retary of state, who also gave some other information of the growth of a number of counties.

The 14 counties in Mississippi when it became a state, together with dates cf their establishment are as follows: Adams, the oldest county, April 2, 1709; Claiborne, Jefferson, and Wilkinson, the next oldest counties, 1802; Amite, Franklin, Warren, and Wayne, 1811; Han- cock and Jackson, two coast coun- with a smoker when he finds out about Chesterfields Smokers like that Chesterfield TASTE v4 ties, ISM; and Piko, 1815. These counties were the only ones represented by delegates in the constitutional convention held in 1817 in. the "Old Brick church" at 'Washington. 'Mississippi, to draft and adojt the first for tjie forthcoming state of Mississippi. The "Old Brick church" was Mississippi's first state house.

The town, or village, of Washington, located a few miles east of Natchez, in Adams county, was the capital of the old Mississippi territory, and became the first capital of the new state of Mississippi. The brick church, erected there in 1816, was perhaps the most pretentious building in the community and the most commodious, it was used as the first state-house of the state for 'some three or four year's. During th.2 first 20 years of Mississippi's statehood, there were 41 additional counties created, making the tctal of 55 counties in 1840. The 11 original counties of the new state were very large and later, parts of these counties were taken to compose other counties. Twelve counties were I creator! between 1819 and 1830, in-J elusive.

Then the famous' treaties I with the large, tribes of Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians which occurred during this ep.rly period; added much territory to the new state, from which added counties were formed. I At the end of 1830 Mississippi had 26 counties The treaty at Doak's. stand with the Choctaws in 1820; the treaty with the same tribe in 182G, aided in securing territory for the 12 counties in that decade. But the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit, with Choctaws in 1850, and the Treaty of Pontotoc with both the Choctaws and Chickasaws in 1832 opened up large territory in the eastern, central and northern portions of the state, and us a result, there were 17 new counties created in Iht Choctaw country in 1833, and another 13 were created in the Chiekaraw and Choctaw countries of the state in Thus, "at the close of 183G, Mississippi had 5G counties, and from that year until the close of the. llth century, l'j more were created the last of the being Pearl River, established in 18U0.

Just seven counties have been created since 1890, these being Lamar in 11304; Jefferson Davis in 1906; Forrest in 1908; George and Walthall in 1910, and Humphreys in l918. and sure as shootin9 they're MILDER This Is How Child Artists Paint A Kv a V'V The backfield will probably be composed of Ralph Davis, Fred Copyright 1937, liqatTT MyRj Tobacco Co Of Co. i 'Jy i 28 Pi -i 3 VOMWK VOW -yv. 1 -w, WW- lS fl fo I 1 Street scenes, landscapes, still life even abstractions arc not loo difficult, for child painters to tackle, Federal Art Project directors in Washington found out when they opened the nation's first gallery devoted solely to juvenile art.
