BEAVER DAM, Jan. 21.-To our
TREND "Who:" Our playing cards
are the latest, smoothest and slick
est that ever rippled along your
fingers, and as to games they are
calculated to play any of them,
ancient or modern. We will not
fix a date, but we are coming over
soon-we enjoy warmth.
Miss Sallie Pfice, of Beaver
Dam, and Miss Ida Rosamond, of
Mexico, left Tuesday, this week,
for South Carolina. They will
visit relatives in Charleston, Col
umbia, Walhala, Greenville. also
Atlanta. They will be absent until
the second week in March.
One month and Beaver Dam
school will close. Number of pu-
pills on roll, As; average attendance
the past month, 81. The session
thus far has been a prosperous one
and the results are of the most
satisfactory character. Ability,
diligence, wise management, a de-
votion to the cause of learning on
the part of Mrs. May Atkinson as
teacher is abundantly evident.
PUELLA WOULD LIKE TO KNOWN.
If items of news are not always
thankfully received by US? So do
not be backward on Beaver Dam.
Anything that occurs of interest
hand it over to Puella and We will
always say, thanks.
IT, in public affairs, we should
not labor to the interest of all con-
cerned?
If, when we are all pensioned,
there wont be gobs of hberality
shown everywhere?
If the saw and grist mill wont
start up at Cedar Grove soon2
If the young people didn't have
a jolly time at the residence of E.
II. Dicus last Friday night?
Quite a number of friends of Mr..
Ed. and Miss Allie Harrison met
at their home last Saturday night
and had a good social time.
The social club gave their second
hop of the season last Wednesday
night, which took place at the
residence of Jno. Moore. Every.
thing was harmonious and pleasant
and every effort was put forth by the
managers to make the affair one to
be remembered by all who par
ticipated.
At a social few evenings ago
we heard young lady remark that
the LEDGER may cost a little more
than some city papers, but fifty
two times a year it looks after the
interests of your neighborhood,
advertising your marriages and
your deaths. your schools and all
neighboring interests; therefore
she thought everybody should take
their home paper. We extended
the right hand by the way of con.
graduation.
A birthday party was held al
the residence of Mr.. Dave Roberts
Tuesday, Jan. l3, in honor Of Miss
Nellie's 18th birthday. The COM
