"A Mr.. Simmons from McNairy
county was in our burg last Satur-
day with a new patented quilting

woman with a needle could hardly
do in six days. Buy it, ladies.

1t IS strange thing to me that
more of our good brothers and Sis
,ers do not attend Sunday school.

end to you a hearty welcome and
assure you that we will do you a |
title good. Send your children, or
setter still, bring them yourselves.
We ought to have large Sunday
ichoolI here;thsre are grown men and
living in our burg who new
II attend Sunday school. Do not
70 to the stores and talk nonsense
,ut come to Sunday school.
