They Have No Servants.

The servant problem, is getting to be a serious one in this county. This Is made manifest from the fact that every few days the officials of the Summer field Orphans Home receive letters asking for boys and girls from IA to IS years, to do farm and housework. The officials of the Home do not send out children for servants. No children un- der 14, be they male or female. are sent out unless they are adopted by the per sons taking them out. And the char acter of the people are looked into care fully before they are allowed to leave the Home. If a child remains in the Home until he or she is grown. the officials of the Home try to secure them positions where they can support rhem- selves. and not be a burden longer on the church. But they desire to empha- size the fact that they are not run ming an employment agency and do not send the little ones out from the Home to be made servants of. and those who keep writing to them for servants and farm hands would save themselves and the officials of the Home a great deal of trouble by remembering this fact. The Methodist Church of Ala bnma Is doing A great work for the fatherless and motherless little ones, and many home has been secured for the helpless orphans.

Pleasant Word for Selma.

At last nights prayer meeting at the First Presbyterian Church. Rev. R. A. Little. the new pastor, at the close of the services. took occasion to say a word personal on the eve ot his de- parture for his home to bring his fam fly here permanelty to reside. He said that in going to new church pastor nearly always had certain members to come to him and tell him about the church, and that they liked every thing but that some little thing both- cred them. Here he had heard none of that kind of talk. The people were as kind, hospitable. generous a people as he had ever met, not only inside the church, but outside Of 1t. Selma and the people that he had been called, to serve had exceeded his most sang1ine expectations. and he folt more than ever that the hand of God was m the call that he had received from this church. and that when he came back with his family from North Carolina he would enter upon the discharge of his duties with renewed energy and zeal. He said that while he was away he would pray Gods blessings should rest upon his people The little talk that Mir Little made went straight to the hearts of his hearers and there was not a worshiper in the sound of his voice but who wished for him a pleasant visit to his old home and safe return with those he loves so tenderlv.

 Joan Perkins, negro living on MT. Henry Kings place in Burnsville Beat, lost h.; stable and contents by fire night before last. He had burned a kiln of charcoal and had loaded his wagon with fifteen bushel of 1t for the purpose ot bringing 1t to town and sell ing 1t next day. In order to get an early start next morning he loaded his wagon the night before and placed It under the shed at the side of his crib and stable During the night the fire broke out in the charcoal in his wagon. Perkins lost his mule, buggy. wagon. fodder, harness and everything that was in the building. Some two weeks ago another negro, Wade Hampton, liv- ing on Mir. Kings place, lost his crib in a similar manner. by bringing load of charcoal to the house the night be- fore in order to get an early start to town the next morning. Hampton was more fortunate than Perkins, however. in that he did not lose more than $26 or $30.
