A Nice Little Town.

Here is such a nice little item
from Hickory Flat, country
town in Mississippi. The town
was absolutely so dirty that the
women became so ashamed and
disgusted at the appearance of the
streets they proceeded to clean
them up themselves. Listenl-
About twenty five women and
children today sailed forth with
hoes, rakes and brooms for the
purpose of cleaning the streets of
Hickory Flat, and with the aid of
the draymen and boys with goat
carts, they succeeded in making
quite different appearance,
while the men stood looking on
in amazement. Some of the
business men in Forest should
take a tumble. Scott Reporter.

A Good Word for the School Teachers.


1t is seldom you hear knocker
against the public schools and the
salaries the teachers draw. But
we have found one. Our opinion
of the man who would ridicule
our public schools or attempt to
depreciate the splendid work that
the teachers are doing, is that he
is a preson devoid of discernment
and lacking in knowledge. 1t is
safe to say that school teachers in
this country do more work for
less pay than any other class of
persons with equal intelligence
that can be named. And the love,
loyalty, devotion and patience
that is shown in the work of the
teachers in our public schools, is
worthy of the highest esteem and
commentator. And the teaching
timber is continually improving.
The methods are being improved
and the school room that does not
have traces Of beauty and har-
mony is exceptional. The school
teacher is one of the most conse-
Grated and overworked persons in
the community and is one whose
purse is usually about as empty as
her need of praise is lacking.
They are the hyacinths along the
pathway through life for our chill
dren and the man who would
knock them has soul smaller
than a mustard seed, a conscience
as dried up as a jeIked beef, and
a set of brains that could have
been pat in q more appropriate
place were they reposing in the
Uranium Of 4 jelly fish. Sunfowef
