In our last communication to The
Courier we had: "Mr. and Mrs. Acres
at Chick Springs, Flat Rock, Sky
land" etc. Last week we received an
anonymous card, which read thus:
Don't never say stopping at
place; always say staying :" "Ha!
hal" We have no idea who the
writer of this card is, br' evidently
he or she Is very dear friend who
has our interest at heart, for no one
but friend would write anonymous
| letters or cards. Now the only way
OF replying to such is through the cpl
umns of a newspaper, so in reply we
would say IL the writer OF this card
meant to suggest a Discrimination of
the use of the word stopping" he
or she should have omitted the word
Don't" as two negatives In the same
tive. Now, If we could not gramati-
cally construct a sentence of only ten
words we would be very careful how
we criticize the composition of others.
Besides, the word stopping" is quite
| correct when we speak of persona
boarding for short while at hotels,
ct cetera. First cast the beam out
of thine own eye, and then thou
canst see clearly to cast the mote out
of thy brothers eye"
