A good man will observe bad
law, but a bad man will violate a
good law.
The bottom round IN the ladder
Of fame is always held in reserve
for the barefooted boy who would
climb higher.
An interesting revival meeting
is now in progress at the Metho-
dist church here. Rev. Dominick
is doing the preaching.
There are plenty of men who
are willing to die for their church,
who seem to be a bit loath to live
for Gods glory. We need more
Christianity and less churchianity.
Good citizens make good laws,
but no law can make good citi-
zens. Bring men under the in
fluence of the Christian religion
and there is very little need of
law.
Our clever neighbor, Fount
Kyzar, made a flying trip to Sill
yer Creek recently, where he ex-
poets to locate in the near future.
We always regret to lose a good
neighbor.
The patriotism of peace is just
as necessary as the patriotism of
war. The patriotism of the bal
lot is even more necessary in a
free country than the patriotism
of the bullet.
Strange things are coming to
pass up at Corinth, Miss, in these
latter days. The Methodist peo-
pie are running their church mu-
sic by water, and the Baptists are
taking theirs-well, just dry So. !"
What's yer gwine ter do wild
dem ole school books?'' enquired
a colored customer of Mr.. Dan
Bolian the other day. Those
are for the niger Schools" said
Mr.. B. jocularly. Dan says the
negro blushed and turned away.
On leaving the Union Hall
neighborhood the other day, Mrs.
Fannie Allen diagnosed our case;
whereupon she laid in our buggy
a fine mess of turnip green's and
snap beans; but at this writing we
are "up and about Many
thanks, Sister Fannie.
We will forego the pleasure of
attending the Lincoln County As
ISOLATION on Saturday before the
3rd Sunday in October in order to
be with the Mt. Moriah church in
their regular conference ON that
day, when every member of the
church is expected to be present.
A large congregation gathered
at Union Hall last Sabbath with a
sumptuous dinner on the earth.
Our previous appointment at Mt.
Moriah at 8 p. m. prevented us
hearing DIR. Purser's afternoon
sermon. The Union Hall hospi-
tality is unlimited when it comes
to feeding the hungry.
We trust that the executive
committee of the Lincoln County
Association will not grow panicky
and postpone the meeting of that
body. Let US hope that the meet
ing will be so thoroughly fumi-
gated with the good Spirit that
stegomyia fasciata mosquitoes ct
al, will stand a poor show.
Jesus Christ knew from the be-
ginning that Judas was thief and
a traitor, though He said little
about it. DR.. Venable once said
in speech: cit is the shepherds
business to feed the sheep, and
not to jump over in the pen and
60 to butting with them, they
will out butt you"
We fail to make to oursoIf
friends of the mammon on the
blind tiger question, but some
times man has as much cause to
feel proud of his enemies as be
does of his friends. We know that
occasionally we say some cutting
things about his damnable bust
ness, but if the tiger knew all
that we refrain from saying about
his hell-born occupation, be would
thank us the longest day he lives.
