BLOODY RUN RAMBLES.

W. L. Littlechild shipped cst-
tie one day last week. Il
James Bowen was seen tread
ing on Wa-Keeney dirt. Satuf-
day.
Order out of chaos once moro
since the school dads have ALI
gone down the.line-
Mr. and Mrs. Berry seem to
be very nice people. We vel
come them in our midst.
Mr. Rush is progressing fine
~ with his new house. We wish
him and his amiable wife many
years of happiness in it.
Thank you very much, Neff,
for your generous offer. I GER
tainly will avail myself of it.
Kindly state how you propose to

in Bloody Run the same day
making informal calls.
Many thanks to you Mr.. Gal
loway for the phone system. If
it was not for it how very ignor-
ant we would be. But then it is
sometimes folly to be wise when
there is more bliss in ignorance.
Miss Finch thanked Miss AL

box of stationery, a token of es-
TEEN from her pupils I presume.
Remember we did not listen, we
could not help hearing the phone
leaks so.
How desolate Hide Park"
looks since winter has come
again. The birds have flown,
the sweet ''Violets" are gone
away, and the dear Park looks
so sad and lonely. Even the
trees are singing a requiem.
We think we heard some of the
of the west Bloody Run gentle
men were baptiSed a while back.
One lost the road and went into
the river to find it, and the other
went in to perform the rite of
baptism. We didn't hear of any

We accidently heard over the

Britt took Finch's. Now this

providing Mr.. Kirk got enough
of somebody elses dirt to satisfy
him.
