suitable for Miss Ada than teach>

keep their eyes open, they will lose
their teacher before the term is
W.
Leap year has bid us farewell
for a while, and it's hard to tell
which looks the sadest, the bows or

furnishes sufficient light to see how
to feed his stock before day every

In our notice last week of the
killing Of Robert Cantrell by the

reported at the time, that Cantrell
was drunk when he left the spoke

who saw him in this condition or
knew him to be 80.
Farmers are busy this week, and
the principal occupation of town
people is gardening, therefore local
