| stood by me and my principles, and sc
help me heaven will always stand up t.
them and it." You are square on the
question, friend, and you may just worf
ahead on that line and call on us to foot
the bill.
We are glad to learn from our clever
friend L., at Chestnut Bluff, Dyer county,
that he is working to make US club fol
the Peoples Paper, and that he has
already commenced sending them along.
That's the way for each and all to do.
Our longtime ago friend W., at
Brownsville, says: 81 should have sent
the money to renew sooner, but the time
passed without my knowledge. have
been a subscriber ever since 1915. and 7
cannot do without your paper.n You
are right, and thousands realize with you
that they cannot get alone half so well
without having the best paper, for friend
c., at Humboldt, says che finds it indis-
pensable. %
Our lifelong friend B., of Bolivar.
whose sterling worth and friendship we
cannot over estimate, in sending us three
more of the same sort, says that ''stlll
his paper comes and is so good he can
not decline to read," and then adds 81
congratulate my friend Griffith that he
yet liveth, as learn from yesterdsy's
paper, and l have no doubt he is spared
for good purpose" On behalf of our
Senior we are grateful for your kindly
congratulation, and many friends rejoice

eth, and walketh, and eateth, and is still
able to help push along the wheels of the
Peoples Paper. May we all long live to
do our whole duty, and may friendship
and goodwill increase continually.
Friend B., at Gordonsville, in sending
US a subscriber, says: GIN my opinion,
those editors pay but a poor compliment
to their heads and hearts who indulge in
the puerile attempt TO ridicule your agri-
cultural department, SO ably conducted in
your paper. He has poor appreciation
of the South, who, in any way ignores
its farmers and its planters" That is the
correct view, and our people must be
taught to regard any man or set of men
as enemies who disparage the discussion
and development of all our material in
terests and resources as people.
Friend j., at Guthrie, KY, in sending
two subscribers, says he is well pleased
with the paper, while friend s., at Water
Hill, says he has read it awhile and wants
to read more, and our friends A. and II.
say they hope to send us another large
club or two for College Grove, and we
hope to hear soOn and often from them,
and all who feel an interest in the spread
of the ''People's'
A friend writing from Hurricane, says:
"YOurs is the best paper that comes to
this office, and ought to be taken by all
of our citizens. am doing my best for
it" Thank you, kind friend o., hoping
you may be successful, we pledge re-
newed efforts.
A letter from friend H., at Harris Sta
ton, with four new ones speaks well for
him and the "People's Paper" He is q
host in the way of work; and his good ex-
ample is followed by our friend A, at
Milan, by sending US three more, and a
promise of still more; and from Thomas
vile cur valued friend S. still sends them
along in clubs of 10 and II at time. He
is one of our most effective co-lSborers.
Friend H., at Dresden, sends his renewal
and two others for the Peoples"
Friend H., at Athens, says: 81 cannot
do well without your valuable paper to
read, as it is the best paper in the State;
and when | conclude to quit taking the
Peoples l will write you. l also send
you one other with mine to help double
your list. " That is right and we thank
you for your interest in our behalf and
for your good opinions.
From our friend s., at Verona, we get
two new enes and the promise of more of
the same sort. That is the way to swell
the list. Send them along.
Our valued friend P. at Gardner, has
not forgotten us, but sends along more
while ]. at Culleoka sends US
three more, and promises some more
soon; and D. at Woodbury. follows suit
with three more; while K. and W. at
Dalton, Ga, repeat the same tale that is
told by thousands elsewhere-''we must
have the L. and A, it is the best, etc.;
and Il. and S. at Cedar Hill chime in the
same tune; also friend 2. at Bell Buckle,
sends us five more showing that they lik e
the paper still up there.
Our friend G. at Echo, sends US q few
more of the same sort, and says "your
paper is in great demand here,
and your friends are alive for the Peoples

what we get from almost every point,

stforts TO improve our paper and all the |
material interests of the country, and es-
1ecially of the able and efficient manner
