Buddy Strom's Cake Walk.

Mr.. EDITOR: I hear that Buddy
Strom since he has been elected to
the legislature has had a big cake
walk. I wanted to be there, but
he did not ask me. He started out
in a cake walk, but turned it into
a "toe-touching"-and then they
tried Jim Logan and Put Winn in
Squire Gilchrist's court. Winn
came clear, but Jim Logan was
sentenced to be hung to the crook
eldest black jack limb they could
find. 1 hope, however, that Gov
ernor Gllchrist will pardon Broth
er Logan as he did net mean any
harm by what he done. I hope all
the boys there will pardon him,
and the ladies too. If had been
OIL the jury I would have done all
Icould for Brother Logan. I will
be down to see you all soon, and
hope to catch a fat 'possum up one
of them black jack trees.

he Mt. Canaan Colored Baptist
Association.

MIR. EDITOR: The Mt. Canaan
AS Isociation met with the Jeters
Ba iptist church of Edgefeld county
Sci ,t. 18th, with a goodly attend
anc ,'e. The churches composing the
ass ociation put in their presence
res! oectively, and with full and ac-
cur ate reports. The permanent or
gan ,ization for the ensuing year
was as follows: Rev. Isaac john
ston,l a splendid presiding officer
and Christian gentleman, was
elect led and properly installed as
mod orator; Prof. A. w. Nicholson
was elected clerk, and Deacon
Cott Dr., who has served as treasur-
er fe II twenty years, was unani-
mous.ly reelected for treasurer.
F. Th e writer was deeply impressed
with the marked Improvement his
people have made and are still
making. There was quite a num-
Der of ministers present: and I am
proud to say that they we're of no
mean ministerial ability. Among
the many was Rev. W. H. oliphant,
Rev. hos. Key, Rev. G. w. Block
er, Rev. R. B. Bracy, and Rev.
VIM. ST. lllivsn.
Rev. ". H. oliphant preached
the doc trinal sermon. His subject
had particular bearing upon the
divisions which subsist in the re-
ligious W Forld, and the grand prin-
ciples which ought to form a bond
of union among all who acknowl-
edge the truth of the Christian
reveIatio q. He showed very clearly
the effects which would flow from
the full operation Of the principle
of love to God and to man. The
tongue of the slanderer ard the
whispering of tie backbiter would
no longer be heard in their mali
cious attempts to SOW the seeds of
discord aud contention among
brethren. Rev. Oliphant certainly
handled the subject in question in
a mastery way, as well as all the
other ministers whom [ had the
pleasure of b caring during the sit
ting of the association.
Mrs. Rebecca Johnston. Mrs.
Millle Neal, Mrs. Matte Ryans,
and Mrs. Blocker constituted the
committee that served the table
and, Mr.. Editor, what they did by
way of loading the table down with
everything tina. t was nice, good,
and sweet was a'gracious plenty.
Now, in my conclusion, may the
God of high hea ven bless the Jeter
community at large, both when
and colored, and grant that white
they will have finished gathering
their cotton crops, oh may they get
a deal more than four cents per
pound.

reliable and useful citizen.-Baptist

They should be boiled with piece
of smoked midding, not the sticky
pork that comes from the West
though rather than miss the peas,
we would accept the weste meat
and the cooking should proceed until
one of the largest peas may be rubbed
to the thinness Of writing paper be-
tween the thumb and foreftnSer.
Then they should be served as the
taste dictates-plenty of salt, sprinkl-
ing of red pepper. with a dash Of
vinegar-and they should be eaten
with cornbread, though this is not
necessary, for the cornfeld pea IS
both bread and meat. We are talking
about cow peas for dinner.
Do you love your town? If so you
will help support and maintain its
business institutions. Do you have
any concern for its future? If so, you
will encourage every movement
looking to the up-buildlng of
the town. Would you like to see it
grow and prosper and extend its in
luence? If so, you will speak a good
word for the town and people at
every opportunity. You will lend
assistance to its industries and
patronize them. If you don't do these
things you are poor citizen, only a
stumbling block to prosperity, and a
positive detriment to any COM
munity.-EX.
