Mr.. A. A. Mayes has planted a
nice little apple orchard of 112
trees. That's a good move in the
right direction.
Mr.. W. T. Segars and wife were
called to the bedside of their step
mother, Mrs. Segars, of Marietta,
last week who is very low with
pneumonia.
Mr.. Walker Fuller, Of Milton
county. who bought the Baswell
place. has done great deal of
blasting in the creek III order to
get the ditch deep enough to dry
the land SO it can be cultivated.
Sabbath school every Sabbath

Miss Lula Handy, of New Hope,
visited Mr.. and Mrs. Davie Handy
last week.
Well everything is moving along
very quietly in this neck of the
woods. There is not much COM
plant except some of our young
men are undergoing some terrible
shocks of heart trouble. Rut l
think probably they will soon be
relieved if they can get that letter
that they have been watching the
postoffice for.
The making of a fortune is not
all of life. 1t may no doubt en-
able some people to enter society
as it is called, but to be estimated
there, they must possess qualities
of mind, manners or heart, else
they are merely rich people and
nothing more. There are men in
society now as rich as Croesus who
have no consideration extended to-
wards them and elicit no respect.
They are but as money bags, their
only will is their till. The men of
mark in society, the guides and
rulers of opinions, the really sue
cCssful men, are not necessarily
rich men, but men Of sterling
character, of disciplined expe-
rience and moral excellence.
There are many things in this
world worth more than money.
n. A. Brewer returned home
last week from Anderson and
Oconee counties. S. c., where he
