UNCLE GID'S LETTER.


The funniest thing any of you have
ever seen in hfo was that man you We
seen come riding along on an old, much
jaded horse called "0ld Socialism"
He is constantly inquiring for a pas
ture and rest for the poor, broken
down qritter. He has ridden him far
and fast and he wants to see if he can
not improve his dilapidated condition
and make him have a better appear
anee. Hush yonder comes another old
fellow with whip, on the handle of
which is written, Common Sense"
Thinks /, now for some fun, for |
could SOC mischief in the old mans
eye. Then sorter noticed sold Soci-
alism'' get kinder troubled like, and I
soon knew the cause. The old man
had given him keen cut with the
whip OF 'Common Sense. That made
him buck and kick fearfully so he
couldn' neigh, down with rich men
and let no man accumulate any more
wealth. Then the old man said,
what do you mean by wealth and
what are you going to do with the al
ready rich MANI This made "Old
Socialism" frantic, and he began cav
orting and raging up and down like
the waves of an angry sea, and he
neighed once, 'sLet there be no rich
or poor" Then an Old Hayseed came
up and said: Friend, your horse is
very much faxed. Turn him into my
clover patch and let him recruit and
get over your much riding Into the
pasture the old horse went, but he was
SO tired he went to sleep and hasn't
awoke yet .t''t 3i.l +aao1 84Slt3
Now I've been telling you about
the hobby horses some people ride day
in and day out and often far into the
night. In the newspapers they take
every inch OF space possible for their
one idea, their one hobby, never hav-
ing learned that two-column article
is nevJ read by one in every ten., It's
a fact. MOT one man in ten will read
a two-column article al@
A short, spicy, breezy commlnica-
tion is relished. An editor once told
me thata man using over a column Of
a newspaper needn't expect it to be
read. Another said a fellow should
never undertake to tell all he knows al
one time. I took it as a rebuke anc
tried tcfhold myself inside The. limit.I
| just a half column is enough. Sucf
long winded hobbiests remind me o.
Mr.. Wright of the city whom the coun
try lads got to go with them one colo
January night snipe hunting. Mr.
i Wright held the sack until nearly day
light and caught no snipe. a
Sallie Wagner, his sweetheart, wag
ed her tongue just enough to let Mr.
Wright know that she considered hin
mighty green, and she would advis
him to get back to the city as the COW
might eat him up before spring
Wright took the hint, being wise

It seems like the good old summer
time. The birds Of the forest sing as
iubilant with the new life of spring,
songs after songs They are picking
M twigs to weave their homes for
their future young. All nature sings
the same sweet strain. Why should 1T
not be so? This season should put new
life, love and hope into our souls.
God sends His beautiful sunshine on
the evil as well as the good. God has
done enough for the good in making
them good, so let your personal sun
shine lift some saddened heart out OF
the mud of dispondency. Put life and
hope and love into your friends and
neighbors Those who love to have
friends must show themselves to be
friendly. All human affairs follow Ma
ture' i great works.
Mrs. Martha Sanders, of Chattanoo-
ga, the mother of Mrs Vim. Loach, is

Eugene Loach, John Thomas and

John said, Lets pull out of here. y
They took the first train for Empire
and are telling here that that show
beat any movable picture show they
ever saw.
Brice Howie, better known as the
Slugger, formerly of Etna, came il
to Empire one day last week. He said
this is the finest camp he ever saw.
Joe O'Neal said he thought that
fools were all dead but there is one left
yet, for VIM. Loach bought a white
rooster and gave $1,000 for him, but
Joe says, "By George, he is beauty.
Claud Broadway, the wandering
jew, came in to Empire last week.
Old Gland used to work here years
ago, and the first thing he asked was
lis Miss c. still living hereY'
That seemed to be more important tC
him than to ask for a place to board,
but she had gone long ago. 7'
Joe O'Neal said if he should draw a
much next payday as he did this pay
day he would try to buy out the com

day to take your picture, and that he
will show prints Wednesday and the
next Sunday he delivers the pictures.
He got all the quarters he could in our
town, and then he went to Whitwell
and did the people there the same
way and went on to Atpontley and
played the same game, and has not
taken any pictures yet. SO all of you
people watch for him. He is a very
large man. He wore light over coat

The Declamatory Contest.

The declamatory contest of the
high school girls occurred last Fri
day evening in the M. E. church
and the exercises passed off with
out hitch or friction-as slick as
the operation of q we'll fabricated
machine. Every one who had a
part in the contest, managers and
performers, knew where they were
at and they were there. Ten girls
took part in the speaking, and all
acquitted themselves admirably.
All had their pieces we'll learned so
that they never hesitated to recall
word, each one was at her ease on
the stage and her enunciation was
good. A marked feature of the de-
livery was the action-the express
ion of the face and hands-the bod
lily action, 10 supplement the verbal
expression, showing that the speak
er was filled with the sentiment of
the piece.
Five of the girls, we believe, took
part in the contest year ago, and
their speaking this year showed i'm
provement over that of last spring.
The winners-those who were ma x
ed the highest, 1st, I'd, and Sd, were
in the previous contest. Ethel
Chapman was given first place by
the judges, a conclusion that was
evidently approved by most of the
audience. Her effort was fine, fault
less. We do not put much stress
upon the conclusion of the markings
of the judges in these contests.
Who gets first place is of little con-
sequence, s'though it is an attain
ment worth seeking. There is al
ways satisfaction in winning over
another. but that fact in itself is of
little value. The permanent gain
is the discipline.
These contests are valuable-as
is apparent in the improvement
shown not only in the individual
who persists in the speaking but al
so in the advancement seen in the
merits of the annual contests.
These later ones are evidently much
better than the earlier ones. That
the contests are gaining also in pop
ularity is shown by the larger num-
Der that take part in them in the
different high schools in the state.
