ANOTHER OLD TIME SCHOOL.

Dear ANnt Jennie:-I wish to join
the band of Social C~hatterers." l am
a farmers wife and I live five miles
from the little village of Highlands, in
Macon county, North Carolina. l read
Mrs. Mull's letter on the old.time
school. and it carried me back to my
school days f~orty-seven years ago. !
wish to tell the younger Ohatterers how
this school was conducted.
The teacher was a cross old man
Unlike the teacher of whom Mrs. Null
writes, he was, TO most of US, a perfect
terror. We had to be there early and
stay late. Upon reaching the school.
house, we would make polite bow, then
get our old blue back Speller and
study aloud. The one that made most
noise studying was supposed to learn
fastest.
Just before eating our lunch, we
were arranged across the room, the
boys on n side the girls on the other.
Then we went through the form OF
giving intrcductions. 1t was in this
style. "Miss Brown, allow me to in
troduce you to Mr.. Smith" Mr.. Smith
would say: II am happy in your &C
quaintance, I hope Z find you well,
marin" etc, etc.
Next we had to ask a blessing and
eat dinner.
If we were allowed to leave the
school room during school hours, we
had to carry a pass in the form of a
stick that was kept hanging near the
door. By this means only one was al
lowed out at the time, and woe unto
that one who returned without the
stick
am glad we have no such teachers
now. I am glad that the editor has
given US a corner, and I hope we may
all be benefited by exchanging our
views.-MIs. N. 81. Mckinney, High

YOUNG FOLKS.
& o WE LOVE-.


Ga, TOR q glimpse of a natural boy
A boy with a freckled face,
With forehead white meath tangled
hair
And llmbs devoid Of grace.
Whose feet toe in, while his elbows
flare,
Whose knees are patched all WAYS.
We turns as red as q lobster when
You give him q word Of praise.
A boy who's born with an appetite.
Who seeks the pantry shelf
To eat his piece with resoundinp
smack
Who isn't gone on himself.
A Robinson Crusoe" reading boy,
Whose pockets bulge with trash,
Who knows che use Of rod and gun
And where the brook trout sOlashI
It's true he'll sit in the easiest chair.
With his hat on his tOusled head:
That his hands and feet are everywhere
Oryouth must have room to spread.
But he doesn't dub his father''old man"
Or deny his mothers call,
Or ridicule what his elders say,
Or think that he knows it all,
Arough and wholesome, natural boy
OF good old fashioned clay
God bless him, If he's still on earth,
For he'll make q man some day

OF our paper, THE PROGRESSIVE FAR
MER gave Us a corner that / would I'm
the 'Chatterers' so now here I am and
want some advice the very first thing
Will some of the 'Chatterers' tell me
just how to manage tube rosesQ l have
tried to grow them for three years and
have had no blooms since the first
year. Ny bulbs have grown beauti
fully less and if some of you do not tell
me what I SHOULD do, / think I will
have to give up in despair. I am 60
fond of tube roses, so you see I will
take any advice as to their cultivation
as an especial favor.
My b~egonias and geraniums do beau
tifully. I think the fire brand gera
mum is one of the prettiest I have ever
had. The blooms were handsome,
brilliant red and I have had as many
as seven large blooms on one bush.
Hydrangeas are nice too and you can
keep them so long. A friend of mine
has q that is over five years old and
last year the blooms were very large
and such a pretty pink too.
How many of the 'Chatterers' love
flo Vers al l do9 I hope to have quite a
variety in the summer. Mother likes
my Virginia creeper best as it grew 60
fast and makes such a nice shade fol

some under the kitchen window and

Whose timbers were grown IN the

That fades from the hills with the light

That my mansion is empty, and I must

When the doctor and I got there the
men were preparing to attack the

anything with the heavy guard Of the
