Letter By A School girl.


Editor Herald: -Will you be so
kind as to let me have little space
IN some OF your columns to put this
little note in.
In regard to your paper, My Papa
takes it and | am not but thirteen
years old but try to read the GREENE
COUNTY HERALD, and would not be
without it for anything on earth, and
furthermore, we have q good school
and | love my teachers with all my
heart. Miss Jessie B is my teach
or and | am delighted with her. ]
think she is mighty nice lady. Also
Papa and Mama are highly pleased at
her teaching They say l have learn
ed more from this school than ever
before, and furthermore | think if
our town was advertised just little
more we would have good schools and
good churches and good streets to go
to school and church on.
So Dear Editor, providing this
does not go to the waste basket | will
write more next time. ] would like to
see this little note in print.

That Other Hog Of DR.. Pools.


Well we have put oil telling about
that other monster hog that DR.. Pool
killed soon after the first, long G.
nongh.
lie had this slain and weighted a
bout one week after the one weigh
ing 34S pounds. This last one brought
up the very large weight 800 lbs. This
made the two aggregat, weight OF
717pounds. From them they got 271
pounds of lard. This lard can't be
bought for less than l24c per pound
on the market. These two buster big
shoats were of Poland China mixed
with native stock This shows what
can be done IN the hog-raising bust
ness in oar county and Is blazing the
path which many will follow in a few
years more, for as the forests eff our
section are rapidly being depleted its
but a question of time, when our cit
liens have got to turn more to stock
raising and farming.

The old man may not recall all the
experiences, all the struggles and tri-
umphs of his early manhood, but ev-
cry feature OF his childhood home, ev-
cry little playhouse that he helped
his sister to build, is photograph
on bis hearts tablets and can never
fade away. Perhaps the golden light
OF eternity will not dim the bright
ness OF that picture. What else the
heart may forget, it cannot forget
the place of its birth; it cannot forget
the little broken cart, the sled and
the kite, the sisters fond caress, the
brothers. generous aid, the father S
counsel, the mothers anxious pray

too often do not fully appreciate the
self sacrificing love and benign pres

Dear Sir: Two years ago, Mr..

The painter estimated GIG so for

Don't know the cost of the work
BY the rule, the saving of labor would

On all, from $50 to el20.
