South Side,

we nave Oeeh having WDat ola
timers call lockwood winter.
Women are probably called an
gels because they wear things that
rustic like wings.
Hog jowl and green's is the lead
ing spring style. The tongue should
be cut bias when served.
Married, Mr.. James Sniter to
Miss Jane Greer, charming young
lady of near Spencer. Their many
friends wish them much joy.
Politically speaking, there are
not as many rapId-firing guns in
the middle of the road now as there
were about this time two years ago.
Some one asks us why we do not
report marriages to- be. There is
many slip between the cup and
the lip" She may change her
mind.
The festive flies, with their wives,
children and cousins, are beginning
to arrive. The advance agent ar
rived at our house Sunday. He was
assasslnated.
About thirty couples of the young
people gathered at Robert Sections
Saturday night and put in few
hours at dancing and gazing sweet
ly at the opposite sex.
We heard young lady say she
wished The OUTLOOK was a daily
paper; that it was so long to wait
for such a good paper. We hope
in the near future it will be pub
lished daily instead of weekly.
Bill Osborn, who is noted for his
courage, has organized company
of 81 men and drills them every
Saturday at Frenchburg. We pre-
sumo if Gen. Weyler ever comes in
contact with Mr.. Osborn he will
have a hot time.
Some Of our sensationalist preach
ers have begun to recruit "a Nigh
ty army of men to move against
Satan" If they could only create
the impression that the devil is a
Spaniard they could fill their ranks
in twenty four hours.
A couple were recently married
in this section and the bride invit-
ed an old aunt to the wedding. The
cards were swell affairs and in one
corner bore the inscription "No
children expected" After scan
ming the card closely over her specs
the old lady said: That's all right,
but they'll have 'em just the same"
We graciously thank the "west
End correspondent for opening
his heart and extending to us an
Invitation to feast with him on
mountain oysters, fish DC. (Are
they cove or freshly In the near
future we will try and come, and
let me assure you that your kind
ness will never be forgotten. Say,
are you a single man?
The boys say that ALT Warner
read an account of "West Ends
ghost and thought that he would
manufacture one of his own, but
when he turned on the electricity
the blamed thing burned up. A
neighbor told us that he fixed it
purposely for us. All! ALT, hun
dred years ago you could have fool
ed US, but now at this advanced age
with the times and the decay of SUI
l perstition we'd readily see that it
was some of your tricks.

Saturday, April 23d. Russell Hall
received first prize, Miss Ella Dick
ems second, for improvement in pen
! manship. Entertainment was good.
Music was furnished by the Flem-
ingsburg orchestra. A large crowd
was in attendance. The box supper
capped the climax. The boxes sold
50 fast you could not comprehend
: the auctioneer's bids, he talked so
fast. They purchased boxes as
| though they had just returned from
: the Klondike and were in sympathy
with the distressed people in Cuba.
Clyde Shrout was the champion
pie-eater. We made many friends
while at the entertainment whom
we feel very grateful to for their
!, kindness and appreciate their many
, compliments regarding South Side
items.
We used to pay fifty cents to get
inside of the canvas and witness q
circus, and really thought we got
the worth of our money. We
believe that we would be willing
to raise the ameant--te seventy
five cents now, and would ex-
pect to get value received if~-
/ could arrange different kind
of a show. We would want it some
thing like this: We would expect o
, big, honest country boy, who has
worked all the summer in the sun
following the pillow and trying to
earn an honest living, to play the
: leading part in the show. He should
be provided with an elm club about
three years old, and we would ex-
pect him to handle it just right on
the worthless and impudent town
boy of the same age who has been
raised up in idleness and thinks il
smart to harass and poke fun 1t the
country boy by calling him "Coun-
try Jake" hay seed" &C., when he
appears on the street and is at
tending to his legitimate business.
