FEBRUARY.

We think a few items from this com
nunity would be beneficial to the many
readers OF our loyal old paper of Wash
ington County. The decoration day
services were held at Union Church the
9Oth, and proved a great success. Prof.
II. b. Carrot, of Milligan, delivered
the memorial address; after which they
all entered the cemetery and Elder
Teams made a short talk on decoration.
There was a vast crowd to witness the
occasion, which had many friends and
relatives deposited in the cemetry over
whom they strewed many beautiful
flowers. The perfume of those eloquent
boquets and wreaths went ~heavenward
until they reached the domains beyond
the ether blue. Then, in the afternoon,
the crowd moved slowly up to the
Speedwell cemetry and placed more
beautiful flowers on the graves of their
loved ones, which was a token of the
love and respect they had for those
who had passed them in the lane of
life and gone to meet those who are
resting in the sweet fields of Eden.
Prof. j. v. Thomas, of Milligan, will
deliver a lecture on the subject of
We" Saturday night before the third
Sunday of this month; he will also
preach on Sunday and Sunday night:
everybody cordially invited to come.
Inc lecture is free. Rev. Teams will
preach on the second Sunday of this
month and Saturday before. The flu.
nearal of Harrison Dunn will probably
be preached the fourth Sunday of this
month at Union Church. Mrs. Rebecca
Hartsell, who has been confined to her
bed for some time, is improving slowly.
Mr.. Love, of Erwin, is visiting friends
and relatives IN Cherokee. Misses
Josie and Willie Brummit, of Allen
town, are visiting friends and relatives
in this community. A. r. Hartsell,
who recently came from the wilds of
New Mexico, will give q croquet party
near FEBRUARY next Saturday; the
ground is located near the Chalybeate
Spring of j. j. Scott. The first Sunday
night of this month there was an en-.
tertainment given by the Lamar Sun
day School, which is commonly known
throughout the land as Children's
Day, for the purpose of getting a col
lection for missionary purposes. The
recent rains have been very beneficial
to u farmers; it has livened every
thing up, and they are growing very
nicely. Wheat and winter oats are
looking better this spring and summer
than they have for years before. The
young men have organized a debating
society at Union Schoolhouse. which is
in full Roadway now. The health of
our community is very good at present.

A Deserved Honor.

During the recent session Of the
Grand Lodge Knights and Ladies Of
Honor, which was held in Nashville,
our townsman j. M. Fink, was elected
Vice Grand Protector, an honor most
worthily bestowed and highly appreci.
ated by the recipient. 1t was entirely
unsought and unexpected, and the very
large vote received by Mr.. Fink is a
compliment to his recognized worth as
man and q brother.

The Electric Light Plant.

Work is progressing fairly well on
the project to supply this town with a
system of electric lights. The dynamo
is being placed in position, the poles
are nearly all up, the lineman is here
and ready to string the wire as soon
as it arrives, and but little time will be
wasted in forwarding the enterprise to
a speedy conclusion.

Camels I'm the Snow.

Troops of camels. brought from Mon
golia, are employed in winter to carry
supplies and materials to and from the
gold placers of eastern Siberia. and the
spectacle presented by long line of
these ''ships of the desert" tramping
solemnly across the SHOWS of Siberian
steppe, is described as extremely sin
gular. Camels require only about half
as much daily food as horses, but on the
other hand, they have to be literally
supplied with salt. Where the country
is SO wild that neither roads nor tracks
exist, reindeer are employed instead
of horses or camels, and they find their
own living en- route, by uncovering, be-
meath the snow. kind of gray lichen
on which they are able to subsist.-

AGRICULTURAL HINTS
THE OLD COUNTRY ROAD.

From the busy haunts OF farmer-folk
1t starts on its winding way,
Goes over the hill. and across the brook.
Where the minnows love to Cay:
Beside the mill with its water-wheel,
And the pond so dark and deep.
Then up to the tavern and village store,
And the church. where the dead lie asleep.
You would never think that the country
road,
From the hin to the store. could be
So long TO boy with an errand to do
And another boy to see.
You can never dream how short 1t Is
From the farm to the frozen pond.
Nor how very much farther Ii always Is
To the schoolhouse just beyond.
Oh, the country roadi at the farther END
1t runs up hill and down,
Away from the woods and the ripping
brook,
To the toiling, rushing town.
But, best of II all when you're tired and
sick
OF the weary haunts of men.
If you follow il back, il will lead you home
To the woods and fields again.
-Gussie Packard Du Bots. in st. Nicholas.
