but a providential hindrance.
How many people of Obion
County have thought of or realized
the condition of many people, es-
pecially widows and orphans, and a
great many poor hard working men
with families have undergone this
series of winter we have been hav-
ing the last thirty days. There
are many people who think they
have hard time, laboring people
who are INDUCING and surrounded
with luxuries and don't know it
and you will even hear the old
chronic complainer belch forth his
poverty stricken condition when he
has large barns, broad acres of
land or bank stock or other invest
ments. AS long as we are well, we
don't realize what it is to be sick
and as long as we have plenty of
good warm clothes plenty to eat
and a good bed to sleep on and a
good comfortable house to live in
and plenty of wood or coal to keep
our rooms comfortable, and when
we leave our work and plod home
through the snow and zero winds,
and on entering OR doors where
everything looks inviting and cozy,
we forget those who are unfortu-
nately situated. There are many
persons, especially the negroes,
who have to do many ways to get
through the winter, and while there
are some worthy negroes, a majori-
ty of them are not to be sympathiz-
ed with, because they won't work
for money, love of friendship. This
class should be arrested for vagran-
cy and if they won't work for them
selves, put to work on the county
roads, negro women not excepted,
for they will work or cook for you
one week and refuse the next and
at the same time come around and
ask you for something to eat or
borrow so cents and they will wash
next week and pay 1t back, and as
certain as you accommodate one of
them they wiz claim to be sick
from that on when you want them
to do anything.

the rndiments of music and how to
play FIVE pieces he would pay her
SIS, not thinking he would have it
to pay so soon, if ever. Miss Sand
ling accepted the proposition and
last Wednesday evening she phoned

and Mr.. G. M. Adams, who is also
