There was right refreshing frost
} yesterday morning.
Rev. W. j. Coberly is assisting in
the meeting at this place.
Mrs, G. W. Silcott came up to
church Sunday morning.
5. NJ. Mccoy was here on urgent
business Saturday evening.
People will try most any kind OF
II project ifthey think it will pay.
We have often remarked that peo-
pie should be charitable in opinions
rs well A. contributions
Jim Gamer and son and -
Rogers did faithful weeks work for
DIR. Dye moving dirt last week.
Tie newly elected justices and
Conslables will please take notice that
we keep ali kinds Of blanks for their
use in stock.
Miss Emeline Campbell is spending
Il few days here visiting friends and
attending the meeting. Size is ac-
c"mpanied by a Miss Fucker.
Corn is only bringing from thirty
five to forty cents here. Farmers
will find it more profitable to feed it
to stock than u sell for that price
A. w. Penirger, an attendant at
the Weston Asylum for the Insane,
is ON short business visit to home
folks. He came in last Friday night
We noticed fine drove of sheep
pass through town one day last week,
but we did not notice who vas driv-
ing them. They went toward Ritch-
lie county.
Ii we were to make such comments
about many happenmings as some peo-
pile would have us make, we would
have to carry our heads i'll sling the
most of the time.
Ing Rose settled up his business
here and started for Spencer Thurs
day. He conducted himself mighty
well while here, and everybody would
be glad to see him return at any
time.
The question il, d. we want tele-
phone to Arnoldsburg? If so, how
bad do we want it? There is no good
reason why the two principal towns
Of the county should not be connect
ed by telephone.
The christian people of this town,
under the banherof Gideon, as it
we're, are wagiHg var on c Armeni-
:,n hosts. We believe it was Shake
srere who SAID: Thrice armed is he
~ ho hath his battle just"
Aunt Druzy Stump has purchased
the G. W. Silcott store room oppo-
site her hotel and is having it repair
ed. We understand Misses Nettie
and"Dutch," her daughters, will oc-
cupy it with a millincr store.
That Sunday School Committee
could have saved us several hours of
Sunday work, last Sunday, by handing
us the report day earlier. Saturday
evening is very unfavorable time
To hand us manuscript for the next
Tuesdays paper.
We notice in printing the Minutes
for The MI. Pisgah Association where
one Church had contributed less than
zen cents Tor Minutes, and all other
contributions were about Ne extrava-
CANT. The members Of that congre-
CATION must be poor indeed.
We never have been able to see all
Of the mistakes that will slip into
each issue OF this paper. We find
tine most of them while distributing
| the after it Is too iate to cor
rect them. And one Of the troubles
Is, u Ridiculous mistake is as apt to
go unnoticed as a letter upside down.
The clerks in seme of the stores in
this town are making considerable
war OH Ioufers for splitting on their
stoves. BOYS, when you spit, spit out
in the middle Of the floor, it will do
no harm there. But when you spit
on the stove it rusts it or makes it
look filthy. On the other hand if you
spit in the middle OF the fl, or it is no
p tronblc to clean up. Study about
this matter a little aud see if We are
not about right.
