Adele, Va, May 10, 1905.
After a modest apology for our long
absence from the columns Of the Her
aid, we will be glad to render our little
account
To say every one is busy is just a
mild way TO express the busy, bust
ness way Of the farmers, especially at
the present. The soil is in fine con-
dition and the weather being so favor
able much blowing is being done, and
plants are plentiful; some Of the weed
has been planted already, for plants,
like ''time and tide wait for no man."
But one Of our citizens says he must
have sowed his seed upside down for
he sees nothing In his plant bed but
roots. This is one exception TO the
statement.
Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Covington are
the happy parents Of fine baby boy.
Miss May Cunningham and little
brother John spent several days in
Richmond last week and report a
most enjoyable time. On their return
they were accompanied by Miss Helen
Hunt who will spend some time in
the home of her parents, Mr., and Mrs.
b. +. Hunt, near Adele.
George Booker, Jr., the little son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. George Booker, who has

Mr.. r. c. Cakes, who has been in
the Home and Retreat in Lynchburg,
we are glad to say is doing nicely
after very severe operation and will
soon be home.
Among the visitors in the neighbor-
hood are Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Swan,
Of Bluefeld, with their little girl,
Ruth, and Mrs. A. ). Swan, of Hix-

Death of Mrs. Woodall.

Died Tuesday at the home of Mr.
Joseph Lipscomb, Of Farmville-
Mrs. Henry w. Woodall, Of South
Boston, in the end year of her age.
Thus has passed away one ofthe love
lest characters this world has ever
known. She was member of the
NJ. T.. church and a consecrated Chris
tian.
Mrs. Woodall had been in declining
health for some time and two weeks
ago came to Farmville 10 Mr.. Lips
combs, who is her brother. She
leaves husband and one son To mourn
her loss. The remains were taken Ia
South Boston for interment.

May Day Exercises.

tremely large crowd gatherd on the
Normal School campus before 10
O'Clock, Friday morning, May 5, to
enjoy the third annual celebration of
May-day 10y the Training School chill
dren. No one was deferred by the
bad weather; in fact, each seemed de
iemined to take his life in his hands
by standing in the rain an hour rath-
er than miss so pleasant sight.
At the last minute the announce
ment was made that the exercises
would take place in the gymnasium.
The spectators streamed eagerly across
the yard, and Immediately filled 10
overlooking the gallery Of the gymna-
stun.
Though an hour was consumed in
the necessary preparations To meet the
emergency ola transferred programme,
no one grew impatient and went
away, but watched with sympathy
and interest the busy workers on the
floor below. The beautiful programme
was reward enough for such patient
waiting. The charming Rotations
and sparkling songs, full Of the bud
ding, bubbling spirit ands secrets Of
May time, gave evidence Of the most
thoughtful, careful planning, and the
most skillful training.
The appearance of the May Queen
and her court was, perhaps, greeted
with the heartiest applause. At the
head Of the royal procession marched
the gallant little herald Barry Wall,
and the handsome little scepter-bearer,
Petit Venable. They were followed
by the winsome Queen, Marie Price,
10y her maids Of honor, pref
ty Kate Cox, bearing a crown OF
snowy flowers, and attractive little
Mary Barrow, Irma Rice and Kath-
leen Spencer, carrying bright flowers
to strew before cher dainty majesty"

many telling facts in his argument
Senator Martins theme was the coun-

our people. His speech bristled with
practical suggestions and made de-

Senator Martin said in part: "Ihe

man from the savage. Education in
the broad sense is not limited To what
you can get from books, ii is the train

Competition is so great that education
is important and its importance is in

by contact. Those having education
have the opportunity to do a great
deal of good outside Of school. AssO-

people, people Of refinement Of taste,

An Explanation.

Much has been said Of late in the
Herald on the subject Of Trade Edi-
ton, and our readers may have been
wondering at its non-appearance.
The delay has been due TO the fact
that our purpose is to so enlarge upon
all past effort in this direction that we
found it necessary to go slow. We
hope yet to insure something Of which
Farmville and all our friends will be
DrOud.
