st Paul's Items.

Mr.. Editor, we desire to start a clod-
hopper in your paper.
communion services were held at
st. Paul's church yesterday, Rev. J. A.
Sligh, our pastor, preached one of the
most impressive sermons I have ever
heard him preach, and l have heard
him preach for thirty-two years. Ten
members were admitted to the church.
A congregational meeting and prepar-
atory services were held on Good Fri
day. The church council was elected
on that day and the following gentle
men will serve as elders: J. d. Shealy,
j. II. Livington, w. S. Seybt, j. A. G.

cess in his efforts or the efforts that he
may make in the welfare of our Sun

any time if he thinks that he needs as
sistance.
Mr.. j. j. Epting is preparing to
thresh wheat at his house. That is
very handy for lis who live near him or

The grain looks very prosperous. I
believe that it is going to be the best
grain crop we have seen for several
years, or at least it looks that way
now.
We are glad to say that we can hear
the familiar voice of Col. II. w. Hol-
loway from his porch in passing. He
