My music class will open Sept. LIST and
promises to be full. To pursue music
means hard work. 1 wish every pupil
would start in with that idea; playing
pieces does not constitute musical edu-
cation. Exercises, studies and etudes
must be studied diligently.
Mr.. r. H. hewitt and Mr.. Weathers, of
Leavenworth, Ind, will charter one of
the excursion boats from Louisville and
give round trip to Tell City and back
on next Sunday. There is always some
thing romantic about a jaunt on the
water, music is sweeter, there's poetry
in the motion, halo Of pleasure not ex-
perienced elsewhere. Success to the
gentlemen.
l have heard OF another marriage for
the fall; both Meade county people now
elsewhere; the would be groom is wild
over, the bride elect, one of our most
versatile writers and an altogether fasci-
mating woman. The admiration has been
OF long standing. Life is too short to
postpone happiness. Love at last is all
in this world; spontaneous, responsive
love.
The wave of prosperity has certainly
reached Wall street judging from the
papers. Let us hope the wave may over
flow the bulls and bears" domain and
that we outsiders may feel the boom.
The high prices Of wheat and the big
crops will certainly mean bonanza to
farmers, and when this class prospers we
all prosper. There is surely a good for
eign demand for our products.
l have received a catalogue from Ellen
dale Commercial College for lS97.98
The college is situated in Daviess county
a short distance from Curdsville on Green
river and has met with great success the
past year. Our town "boy," or rather

hand, telegraphy and typewriting, will
be one OF the faculty again for the ensu-
ing year, See him for particulars

The habit of looking on the bright side
OF things is good one and is worth a
good deal TO one who cultivates it. Ger
tainly one should not cultivate the habit |
OF looking on the dark side, especially |
when he must draw on his forbodings and |
approximations for his vision OF that dark
side. We often see thus what does not |
exist and what may never exist. God
has promised grace for each time OF need |
but We have no promises for our hours |
Of worry and fretting. We are told that
we may pass through deep waters but |
they shall not overflow us. We ought 10 |
be satisfied, but how often we are not. |
