LOST MOUNTAIN.

The singing here last Sunday
was well attended. Think we will
have to have another one about
the fifth Sunday.
Lost Mountain has some Of the
best farmers that Cobb county
has, we think. Mr.. Park Ward.
a farmer here, raised something
over thousand bushels of pota-
toes last year, besides crop of
cotton and corn. He is selling
them now every week. No trou-
BILE Tor him to keep them from
rotting.
What about the "tackey" party
last Friday night? 1t was GER
talnly success; didn't know
Lost Mountain folks could look so
tackey.
Ali Homer Green was at
church Sunday without any cuffs
on; the reason is that he pinned
them together and wore them for
a collar at the tackey party, and
got them dirty.
1t seems nowadays in society a
person is taken for his dress and
what he looks to be, and not for
what he is. In the majority of
communities the biggest dude has
a picnic with the girls. If he can
dress nicely, part his hair in the
middle, and has a tongue slick
and also loose at both ends, then
he is ashore" in the fight. ISM
this distressing? Such should be
scorned by every sensible boy or
girl, and will be.
The Union Singing of the Con-
cord convention comes to Lost
Mountain this year. 1t will be
held here the first Saturday and
Sunday in June. We cordially
welcome them.

are promptly removed under the infiu-
ence Of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-root. It

repeat the dose of seed of last year,
and as an inducement promised to
write his name in full in my Bible.
Last Saturday when I got back
to the Ridge, instead of the old
woman greeting me as usual with
right smart mash and kiss she
brought me the Bible, saying here
Jim write the Hon. Stephen shame
in here as you promised for he
wants his people to be treated
right. I say, Jim, he's got a
mighty good wife. She's got him
trained to be prompt and I hope,
Jim, you will live long enough to
help send them both to the White
House. I said, Amen.
Just then Miss Adeline Lewis
came up to tell me all she knew.
She said last Sunday at the sing

After the singing, Grow jumped
in it, burst out the bottom and
roasted on the perches. It was a

John Virgins, during the rain,
hauled in a few loads of saw dust
to put in the stable "a good idea)
Miss Virgins decided to mix il
with meal to feed her chickens
and it was big saving in meal,
if she had sold the eggs, but she
let them set and all Matched and
each chick has a wooden leg, and
Miss Virgins is hot. Adeline is a
truthful young lady and l be-
lleve every word she says.
