his golden wedding at Turner's hall in Sa-
vannah on Wednesday, Jan. "a. There are

very enjoyable evening. band from
! Savannah furnished music for those who

Sunday Messrs. Daniel Tuberdy, Lyman
Hymes and Hugo Wenzell, members Of the

visit, coming up on Safeties. They rode up

seeing, but returned to Savannah as coon
as they finished dinner.
The rumors that have been afloat regard
ing the taking off of the shoofly, Uncle
Micke's vestibule" are probably untrue, as
the officials are studying the interests of all
their local traffic instead OF injuying it,
and the taking Off of that train would
necessitate quite a number OF Poolerites
moving to Savannah. The fact that Pooler
has supported special train when the poDu-
lation was smaller than it is now proves
conclusively that the Richmond and Dan
vile will not do anything that will injure
its receipts. Capt. Kelly's train will remain
as it is now, the 'early birds lightning ex-
press"
The petition from the Poolerites TO the board
Of education begging for more teachers and
better school facilities, 1t Ia thought here,
will be favorably acted upon. The DO ard
appreciates the Importance of having good
| schools in the country and will no doubt do
| everything ia its power to give Pooler larger
| quarters and more teachers. Supt. Mo
| Dowell certainly has his hands full, as he
has an average attendance of 100 scholars
and only one assistant. Il Ia probable that
Supt. Baker Of Savannah will pay the school
| an official visit, and when he makes his re.
| port the board of education can see exactly
| how the Pooler school is cramped for room
and lack OF teachers.
