Mrs. Lena Gorrell, the president
of the union c. E. at Little, and
several of the members met on
Thursday and scrubbed the house
and washed the seats and 1t looks
now like things were run In a
civilized way. 1t has been ru-
mored around that the G. E did
not have good order We want 1t
understood right here that the
ones who nave been talking about
order are not the quietest ores In
church. AS to order we have as
good order as any country church.
We notice In the Oil Review a
letter from Pursley stating that
they only have FIVE ball players left.
Well, that is enough If they have
lost the right ones. Messrs. Ford
and Twyford are ball players, bat
some of the rest are TOO slow, that
Is, to play with our boys.

day, the and inst.
]. B. Hull was In our town one
day this week. We are AWAY $
glad to see him back. Jim Is all O.
K. and liked by all
A R. Lady had horse trade
one day last week.
Our boys are having some trouble
among themselves which we fear
will be settled In the old time way.
The women of our community
are CLEANING house this weel; and
1t Is hard time on the single men
as we'll as married, that Is, when
they go to hunt up their shaving
outfit or anything they need, for
nothing Is left In Its place. The
carpet Is turned upside down and
end for end. The beds are turned
over and If you waot to sleep next
to the cover you will have to crawl
under the bed.
Some woman whom we cannot
name saw the adv, TT, ement In a
paper, send ten Gents In stamps aud
receive sure killer for bed bugs.
Well, she answered the advertise
ment and received the cure. II was
two small blocks and The directions
said catch the bugs and lay them
fiat on his back on one block and
hit him with the other.
Our merchants don't seem to
treat every body alike. They will
even deliver plow points to some.
while to others they must buy a
ten dollar order. But you X ow
there Is always something behind
1t when a fellow will deliver a pillow
point and 1t may be that he Is ex
pecting share of the crop. Well,
/ guess anything beats living single
and doing your own house work.
I guess I'll try 1t myself.
w. r. D. and M. w. Vasare go
Ing to Sistersville soon on official
business. They are a couple of
bright young men and we truly
and sincerely trust that they both
will be successful in their under
taking.
