ming to fattcn.
heyoungpeople enjoyed themselves
ut IN oyster supper at MIR. j. B. Nc
Daniels Gn the 18th ult., and by the
way some Of the girls ate pepper
sauce We think it was very much en-
loved. .Nr. w. NJ. Smith furnished the
oysters, and it is to him and his sister
that the guests are due their thanks
for the merry time.
Our farmers have finished their work
and arc now getting up their winter
wood.
Tie balmy days Of Autumn have
come at last, the time for lovers to
meet at the gay dance or the delight
full sociablc. What are we to doe The
ones VIC once had so much fun and
frOlic with, it seems, are going to (Or
have done sO) getmarricd. Bullet the
good work go on. We are always glad
to see or hear OF two lovers tying the
"knOt."
One more Thanksgiving day has pass
ed. 1t was rest day for school girls
and boys. Some OF the boys went bird
hunting, others went duck hunting,
but ali, both old and young, gave
thanks on this day and went on their
way.
We accepted an invitation to be with
the Lebanonites that day; so, after the
majestic sun had started on his timely
course, we found ourselves going to-
wards the Church, where quite Il crowd
had gathered to give thanks and listen
to the exercises by the children. The
rostrum was most beautifully decOra-
ted with citrOns. watcrmelOnS, cabbage.
pepper, corn, flowers, and many other
things that it takes to make Il beauti-
ful decoration. Mrs. DR.. DuckwOrth
and Miss Roy Nance did the oversee
ing of the decoration, and those that
were present need not inquire about
the taste OF those ladies, for their work,
tells for itself. After the introductory
came some splendid recitations by
some of the pupils of the Lebanon High
School. Prof. w. L. Lott gavea talk,
showing Il few of the most important
reasons WHY the people of the United
States should have Il day set apart for
thanksgiving. His remarks were we'll
founded, and the listeners were only
sorry when he took his seat. Miss Roy
Nance gave an address. She spoke of
the origin of Thanksgiving Day, the
first to observe such day and how it
had been handed down from the Pill
grim Fathers to the wellbred people
OF the United States. Her remarks
were touching, and the people only
wished her time longer. A collection
for the orphanage at Greenwood, then
q song and the prayer which dismissed
the assembled congregation. The pro-
gram was most interestingly arranged,
and all did their parts we'll.
From the church we went to Mr.. w.
A. Martins to enjoy q most excellent
dinner. after which, in company with
Miss Ella, we visited the home of Mr..
r. NJ. Welborn. We enjoyed the eve
ming most hugely till the glorious sun
had completed his daily course. Then
came the boys and girls from every
side, for sociHabIe had been given by
his charming daughter, Miss Elsie, and,
OF course, the young people knew where
to go to have q good time. We had
music, then some innocent games, and
before we knew we had had any fun
the clock had told the midnight hour,
and after few more good violin pieces
we bid each good night. We certainly
did enjoy the day, and Misses Elsie and
Pallie sure do know how to make any
one havea good time.
Well. us time is short and we have
got to be Oft to school we will wish you
all good and happy life, and close.
Come up, Mr.. Editor.
