c. Robertson was at once rushed the hospital for treatment, as it /as seen that he was still breathing. Mr. Collins was very badly crushed as the car upset upon his prostrate form, a high embankment saved Mr. Robertson from death as he was thrown out .
The parked car was owned by a negro who was under his car doing some repairing at the time. He emerg-
ed,	just in time to save himself.
Where it was thought at first that Mr. Robertson was injured internally, x-ray pictures failed to show anything of such a nature, giving his young wife great hope of his speedy recovery.
As The Echo goes to press it is learned that Mr. Robertson?s condition is satisfactory, though he is badly bruised and his nerves all but shattered as a result of his friend?s untimely death.

Rev. Father Costello and George R. Rea Deliver Interesting Talks.
Bay St. Louis Rotary club held its regular Wednesday evening meeting in celebration of Thanksgiving, observing the day before hand with a talk by Rev. Father Costello, of Waveland, on the origin and historical side of Thanksgiving, his address teeming with facts and figures which he presented in a most absorbing manner.

Mr. Rea also told of his visit to Dallas, of some of the big things he saw there; also Houston, two cities that are fast building up and boasting of true metropolitan greatness. New Orleans had be careful, said Mr. Rea, or these two fast-growing cities of skyscrapers and business would soon- encroach upon its great commercial supremacy.
Both Father Costello's and Mr. Rea?s address were received with general applause.

Chamber of Commerce Receives Lung Motor
On Tuesday the Bay St. Louis Chamber of Commerce received from the manufacturers in Massachusetts, one lung motor and with all necessary accessories.
The money for this purchase was realized by public subscription through the instrumentality of the Chamber of Commerce and activity of its secretary, Frank Gentry, and amounted to over two hundred dollars. The money was paid on receipt of life-safety machine, and is ready in case of emergency.
Perhaps this is the only city on- the Mississippi Gulf Coast thus equipped. This type of lung motor is identical to that used at the Charity hospital of the City of New Orleans, and is generally commended, said to be foolproof.
The Echo wishes to commend our people on their promptness and liber ality which made this purchase possi-blo, and also the Chamber of Com merce alive in the premises.

This is part oif reply to the in quiry. We regret to advise againsi bringing cattle ihto a tick-infeste< county, but the truth must prevail and until we are iick-ri,dden we mus suffer:	;
?In regard to the climate and soi conditions and forage in our sectioi of the State I to say that it cai not be equalledjijliuch less excelled having moderatl; climate thtoughou the entire year and there is practcal iy not a day in the year in- which cat <le cannot graze on open range an our local cattle are able?to live o the range throughout the entire yea) to say nothing of sheep being onl seen- once a year and that is whe they, are rounded up for shearing an with the dairy, creameries and chees industries, such concerns as Bordet and Craft and such big industric working into our State, it bids fa to become one of the biggest Stati in the Union- in that respect.
?You can purchase lands in ou and adjoining counties from $10.( to $50.00 per?acre and Bermuda ai Lespedeza'grasses grow abundant and other forage crops, also corn ai other grains, which will enable t! crop to take care of his cattle, i>ut regard to shipping your herd to tt immediate section, it would be necc sary for you to obtain your land a: fence^ same in for a certain length time, in- order to free it of ticks, a about half of the counties in o State are free of these ticks and might be that you will locate- arou Jackson,-- Mississippi, which is Hinds county, Rankin and some of t other counties, which are free of thf ticks.
