damp, dreary weather has come to
tell us the year is growing old, and
ere long will be numbered with the
things that were. Every year bur
dens us with greater cares and as
tonishes us with more wonderful
changes. But we are relieved for a
moment when we return to the time
in life when we were not suscept
ible of care. In the language of
one,
"There is many bright star beaming
In memorys distant sky,
And their soft light is streaming
On days long, long gone by;
And often hover around us,
The loved and lost of yore,
Ere cankering care had found us,
Or life's young dream was Ger"
"Old age is honorable" say Messrs.
Billy Williamson, Will Aymett and
Ned Marks, who are among the
earliest pioneers of this country.
These men have been remarkably
haze and active, until recently. Mr..
Ned Marks was recently stricken
down, and is now lingering on the
shores of time, waiting for the Mas
ter to tell him to come up higher.
Since the exodus to Texas no ex-
element prevails. Now and then
the young folks make night jubilant
with their dancing, frolicking and
revelry. The social club of the
neighborhood speaks of breaking
up, owing to the bad weather. The
club has been a success in every
particular. There is nothing that
adds more to the social cultivation
and refinement of the sexes than
these social meetings. 1t makes
manners easy and pleasant; deport-
ment admirable, and above all, it
encourages that sang .trOid among
children inculcated by good par
ents. "In unity there is strength"
in neighborly association there is
an absence of that selfishness which
some people get into by visiting
some special friend and relative,
forgetting it seems that no one can
appreciate visit but kinsfolk.
We have NO more marriages TO
describe, but the chief of bachelors
says,
"There never was gander so gray,
But what he could find mato some day
And the girls say,
"Alasl alas! for US poor girls,
What sad, sad distressl
To sigh and pull our curls,
And can't be mistress"
Mr.. Ed +. comes out after tea
and entertains Miss Jennie L. with
four hours call, giving her a com
plete inventory of the articles that
constitute hardware store. Bully
for Ed.
Capt. John Woodbridge INDUCED
his audience in a lecture Of an
hours length. He proved in a nut
shell that man to sucesed must take
what he wants and pay his price for
it. Capt. w. needs no commenda-
ton as a lecturer. He needs the
hearty support of those for whose
cause he sacrificed his vision.
A modern way of addressing a
young lady: Spike your breath with
spices, and fill your pockets with
"a pint of the adulterated extract of
corn, to lubricate your colloquial
machinery when you pop the ques-
tior, and if she bushes mesmerize
her with your breath.
Thursday night last the Rev. Mr..
Holt, of the Christian Church,
preached a very plain, logical SER
mon on "What shall 1 do to be
savedY Mr.. Geo. Brownlow has
rented the Tom Ira Tarpley old
farm in the Sharon neIghborhood.
Mr.. Hambleton, who has been liv-
ing on Bradshaw creek, has moved
to, and will take charge OF, VIM.
Tungett's farm next year. Miss
Deadie Lancaster of the Pisgah vi
.cinity is lending her beaming smiles
TO this neighborhood. She is visit
ing her sister, Mrs. w. L. Butler.
Misses Minnie Craig and Fannie
Wilkinson of Big creek are visiting
the Misses A. May their stay be
long and pleasant. Mr.. ConnelPs
children, Mrs. Mcdonald and her
little grandson, Eddie Wilson, and
Mrs. K. II. Butler, we are glad to
know, are rapidly improving.
We have a great natural curiosity
in the way of hill, known as the
Devils Crack" which some of our
lasses have never seen. Will some
gallant have the courtesy to show
them where it is, and explain the
origin of the name1
