AS to this holiday closing of BUSH
ness houses: 1t must be remembered
that most (if not alb of our mer
chants have customers who live @
good many miles from Scooba. If
such a one comes to town on a holt
day, the stores being closed, it
would be a very unbnsiness-like
proceeding on the part of the mer-
chant to refuse him the supplies he
needs. Proper Judgment should be
exercised under all circumstances.
The editor and general utility man
of the HERALD has been decidedly
under the weather" the past few
days, and if it had not been for the

Earl Barnes it is doubtful if we
would have issued a paper. We eX-
pect to have the assistance of this
young gentleman for a couple of
days of each week overthe summer,
and he will attend to any business
for us in our absence.
