Sasser now has Sunday school,
having organized last Sunday. A
cordial invitation is extended to all to
attend at p. m. every Sunday at the
Baptist church. Let us here remember
that we never get too old to attend
Sunday school, and if the older ones
attend it is a pretty precedent for the
younger ones to follow. SO every
body turn out and make the Sunday
school one of the best in the smaller
towns. This we can easily do.
Now, after the grim of toll our
farmers have got the best of General
Green and are now basking in the in
wiling shades that surround their
pretty homes, viewing the tasseling
corn and King Cotton. Who can but
envy their lot, or who can engage in
better pursuit than agriculture? A
promise given to no other occupation,
He that tilleth the ground shall have
bread" has always been fulfilled by
the Great Master to the nOblest class
the tillers of the soil.
Near the residence of Mr.. John Nc
Tendon is row of cedar trees planted
years ago-before Sasser was perhaps
ever dreamed of-that stands as a
perpetual monument to he who planted
them. Doesn't this demonstrate to US
that we should plant trees around our
homes and public ways? Who can
but admire their majestic beauty and
how they adorn their place? And
then what comfort it is to bask in
their cool and refreshing shades.
