new broom always sweeps clean the
whole town and neighborhood turned
out to play and make good cheer. Then
followed social after cial the week
through.
Two, especially Of note, we will speak
Of. On X-mas. night Mr.. and Mrs.

Miss Hattie Mccoy had her friends to
an oyster supper New Years night. All
spent very pleasant evening there and
shall look forward to another event of
this kind soon, Miss Hattie. A large
crowd was in attendance, they came
from the four points OF the compass.
Besides our socials we lave had several
dinings, sleighing parties and much Wis
iting among our youngsters.
We have had several visitors " no have
helped make things pleasant for us. Mr..
ID. G. Heron is over at Mt. Pisgah spend
ing X-mas. with Miss Lucy --. Mr..
Hunter Hardaway is at home from Da-
kota, which means pleasant time for
someone else. Mr.. Frank Snyder has
been among old friends again after So
journ of three years in Texas and the
girls, why they can't talk of anything
else but Frank, but alas every sweet
has its bitter, he had to leave us after a
short little fortnight, went to Stanley,
Kentucky, where he will go in business
with his brother. DIR. Henry Drury has
been among us, also, after some time
spent at the Medical College, Louisville.
We were all glad to see HIM, for his pres
ence is quite an addition to our gather
ings. Mr.. Lyddan, of Webster, has been
in the vicinity once or twice du ing the
week and, by the way, Miss Lena Drury
attended party near Webster Wednes-
day night and reports a merry time.
Monday night we had a grand old
Watch Meeting. The Epworth League
gave an entertainment to while away
the hours till the Young Year should
put in his appearance, which was very
interesting. The programme was lovely
and all acquitted themselves admirably.
Many prayer was mentally winged to
heaven for Gods blessings during the
ensuing year and many resolution to
do good was made God grant that the
prayers that were breathed, the resolves
that were made at the death of the Old
Year and the birth of the New, may be
answered and kept.
During the whole time we have had
beautiful snow ON Mother Earth, which
has made snow-balling a success with
the little folks, and the ponds covered
with ice, which has been the delight of
the small boy and the owners of ice
houses
Alter all this what could we ask more
We have one thing more we would re-
quire from some of the young ladies and
gentlemen is this, a wedding. Let
us have wedding now, right on top of
all our holiday fun, to cap the climax.
