n. &C.. RINGING THE HOURS.
TO the Eater Of tls aEsErastown eaastts:
We have bad ringing sensation
in our town for some ten days. Oar
new $4,000 clock is in successful OPP
GRAFTON in the tower of our new Court
House, and rings out the hours with
great exaetness and wonderful mel
ody. When you come down you
must net fail to see it.
AN APPEAL FOR MORE REST.
The Fourth of July is coming and
our people are getting ready for it.
Chattanooga can't do without q eel
ebration. It will have merry day
on the Fourth. believe in the mer.
riment-but sometimes we have to
pay most too much for the whistle.
The American people need more hol-
i9ays to give them breathing time.
All would be happier and better if
we took a rest day about every two
or three months. Everybody-house-
keepers, storekeepers, preachers, ed
itors. railroaders. farmers, mechan-
ics and everybody else-turn outand
cut loose from business and care and
spend the day in laughing, playing,
romping and trying to keep up child
hood. Did you ever think what a
sad people we are becoming just
look at the faces on our streets
nearly all are sad faces. Men are
sad, women are sad and many chill
dren begin to lose the gladDess Of
youth at sixteen. I believe this
comes from want of rest and free
dom from care. So advise every |
body to rest some. If you have not
time. take it. You won't know the
loss in ten years; but you will feel
the gain even up to seventy years.
Some old preacher know he is a
good one from what he says-advis-
es all housekeepers-aud mothers
particulariy-to have rocking chair
off in some little room, and once q
week. at least, to steal off there, sit
down, rock and sing-sing some of
the old songs of cbildhood-sing
song your mother learned you-sing
an old campmeeting song; and if
you get happy and shout hallelujah
it won't hurt anything. You will GO
back and wash the baby and patch
the big and little trousers with MIN
bier fingers and happier heart. l i
again say, let us have more rest days. {
We will be happier and love God c
and each other more. s
BILL ARP. a
Well, we have had Bill Arp with e
Is and he lectured for us and it was
a good one. An old negro hearing e
Henry Clay speak, said: Massa, p
lat man has things in him." And g
hat is the way with Bill Arp. He d
las got things in him, and when you Il
iear him say them you feel good, If Il
yer he passes about your town, you ii
must have his lecture on Society" 81
md want you to notice that he al
rays speaks well of woman. I ex-
ect Mrs. Arp has given him some
sssons, One thing be said pleased Pr
ONE of oBr people: that any woman ~
tho would bear nine or ten children pr
ught to have a pension from the o
eneral government--andI think he dl
as right. A great many are not tr
eeping up that command found in u
zen. 1928. US
PERSONAL, in
Some members from the General %
at Louisville, KY. were in m
le tewn looking around last week. pr
.mong them, Rev. DR.. Tadlock, of 81
ristol. and Robert P. Rhea. of Sui 81
van county. The latter must be th
pproaching four score years, and y
oks as if he would soon attend the
enersl Assembly of the Church in az
e New Jerusalem. He says he is ny
ected to attend that body and it is on
great joy to him. He is growing IN
d very interestingly. The dew of al
. youth seems to linger, giving sa
sshness and beauty. He is cheer no
and happy and it is pleasant to p''
} old age thus. 1t is like looking lul
the setting sun when it tinges The SCI
7 with vermilion and gold. DIR. /"
dlock looks better than when we ID
' him some few years ago. A good 0N
e has a wonderful effect on us Zee
