scarce this week.

P. ID. Hammontree Is confined to
his room with the mumps, it is to

James and Ira Hammontree and
sister Miss Cora, who have been in
school at Ewing and Jefferson col
lege, were at home last week, re-
operating from case of humps
of recent date.
The people of our town can now
boast of telephone wire, as there is

which has already been beneficial
as Rev. s. P. Fryar can testify, he
having by mistake taken
about ten doses of carbolic acid
in one, which is pronounced to be
very fatal and doubtless would
have proved such in his case had it
not been for the timely aid of the
antidotes for poison contained
therein.
Quite number of the young
people assembled at the home of
p. ID. Hammontree's on last Satur-
day night two weeks ago and spent
a very enjoyable evening in sing
ing and social intercourse.
Messrs G. H. Crye, John Stone,
Riley Carver, w. d. Hammontree,
w. A. Woods and a few others met
at the school house Friday night
week and partially organized a de-
batting society. Mr.. Crye was chos-
en- president and Mr.. Woods secre-
tary. A committee of three was
appointed to get by laws and con-
stitution, after which the question
of (which has the greater influence
on the mind Of man, woman or
money" was sprung for the subject
of the first debate, which after a
lively discussion with three on a
side, was decided in favor of the
the negative. The same question
was chosen for the Friday night
following. All persons of good
standing are invited to attend and

SHOWERS OF BLESSING.

Mr. EDITOR.-Will you allow me
space in the TImEs for brief ac-
count Of a revival series of meet
ings? Taking II for granted that
you answer in the affirmative l
will proceed to give brief account
of the same.
Rev. J. M. Taylor so well known to
the people of Maryville, came to us
on Saturday, Feb. Goth and at once
began a series of meetings. He had
just closed series Of meetings, at
New River, in which the Lord had
blessed his labors to the salvation
OF n large number Of souls. Mr..
Taylor preached with great zeal
and fearlessness. From the very
first there was very great interest
manifested. Denominations came
in and worked shoulder to should
er, All denominational lines were
forgotten, the labors and prayers
Of all were blended and the whole
body OF Christians worked as one
man for the salvation of souls.
] have never been In q meeting
where the workings Of the Holy
Spirit were so manifested as in this.
1t seemed that He broke down all
opposition and melted the hardest
hearts. Old men, youth, and little
children alike yielded to this d.
vine influence and were saved by
the blood of Christ.
Bro. Taylor's father was with us
for a few days and preached some
powerful sermons.
l firmly believe that these bless
ings came to us in answer to the
prayers of two faithful Christian
women in our church who told me
that they had been meeting regu-
larry for yeaar and praying for
just such revival Of religion as we
have now passed through. Here is
an instance of importunate prayer.

CASTLES IN THE AIR

We have seen it stated that it
was all right to have "castles in the
air" if we would only build found
ations under them. The idea is
the emination of some bright brain,
possibly of one of those weary,
hard worked newspaper men
whose thoughts go about the world
with cut credit to their originators,
and who at best, are thankful to
have the journal fer which they
write credited with their clever
sayings. And these are among the
people who build "castles in the
air." but also rarely build found
ations under them. AS a result
their brain work goes to enrich
Others.
Almost everyone builds these
ETHEREAL images especially in
youth. Even the hard worked
mechanic cheerfully plies his tools
as he thinks ofthe great things that
will come to him through some
special idea that he is nursing into
life. The farmer is oft-times a
dreamer, SO also is the merchant
and the professional man, each in
dis own peculiar way; but of all
nnen the inventor is the King of
:sir castle builders and If it were

slows on the foundations OF his
sSrv schemes the world would be

DROPPING OUT OF SCHOOL

1t seems that just now a number
of students from the different
schools are dropping out" Some
of them are compelled to stop be-
cause they must put in crop;
some stop because of sickness;
some stop because of financial
stringency; but many stop just on
account of pure unadultera5ed
laziness," may the Lord pity such
for they abundantly need it.
Because our common schools"
usually continue about four
months, some people have conclud-
ed that the school year is only
four months. But that is mis-
take. Almost any child, with prop
er care at home and at school, can
go to school ten to twelve months
and increase in statue. Then, too
most boys and girls learn more
devilment outside the school in
eight months, than forty teachers
can counter. act in four months.
Getting an education ought to be
acquired just the same as we learn
a trade, by constant and regular
application. characteristics mani
tested and efforts put forth in &C.
quiring an education stamp the
character of the individual. When
ever you see o boy or girl who
studies with vim and who attends
every day, that person wears the
imprint of triumph on his or her
blow, and will succeed in spite of
obstacles, but the person that is in
day and out day will as surely
fail as he lives, if he ever under
takes anything. No person who
has desire to amount to some
thi"g will willingly neglect getting
al education. Fow understand the
possession, and none realize the
loss of an education.
Another thing in which a great
many of us fail is, we do not sup
port good school when we have
it. Whenever your child becomes
q little tired, or you become rather
close run for money, or you do not
like some efthe teachers you de-
eide to take your child out, remov-
ing one prop from the school.
Your neighbor does the same, an
other here and another there does
likewise, and the first thing you
know your man has become dis
couraged and has quietly accepted
another position and your "good
SCHOOL, has come to an end.
A great many look at school af-
fairs just as they look at other
things. in general, i. .. selfishly.
Whenever things go to suit them
they support, otherwise they with
draw. Sometimes patron of the
school will accost a teacher on the
street and say: Eve are having
such good school this year, you
must not think of leaving" and
then with the next breath say:
"well Pm afraid I'll have to take
my boy out, he is kinder getting
tired;" etc. etc.
Now, kind words, and o little
fiattery are sweet to the weary
teacher, but they are not substan.
tial and do not count one hundred
cents to the dollar, "you can't put
them in your pocket" East Tenn
essee air is known the world over
as pure, invigorating, and heath
full, but it has to be thickened a
little to support life.
Whenever patrons fail to support
good man and a good school, they
ought not to kick on poor one.
