We sincerely sympathize with Mr..
and Mrs. G. E. Gilmer, of our town,
in the loss of their sweet little babe,
which sad event took place on Nov.
21st.
Mr.. ]. J. Swindle, of our town, has
been quite sick for three weeks, and
is still confined to his bed.
Prof. J. F. Taylor deserves much
credit for his interesting efforts in
establishing Library ct the Pioneer
High School. Between 80 and 40
volumes have been gotten together
for that purpose. His school is NOV.
ing on to the satisfaction of all the
patrons. He has as yet, only about
thirty pupils, but as soon as the pub.
lie term begins, January l, he expects
about fifty. Few teachers understand
better how to interest the pupils and
keep them interested. 1t seems their
whole mind is on their work.
The weather is fine about now for
killing hogs. The only reason many
of US don't kill during this cold spell
is because we hav'nt the hogs.
