caped. mo man knoweth what
day may bring forth.

tain Scales is one of a number Of
good gardeners in this p.ace.
Mr.. Perry Brooks, Jr., commenced
early last week chopping out his cot
ton. Perry had the brag piece of
cotton in our town last year, and he
has started out for it this year. 1t is
such fine exercise for young mans
muscle, brain, health, appetite and
morals to chop cotton and to do any
other farm work. 1t is one of the
great calIings of God to man. So in
dependent, the farm, where one can
raise almost everything to live on.
Where do we town folks. who live
out of a paper sack, go to get an all
round good meal? The farmers
home. Hundreds of persons would
be better off if they were on the
farm.
An immense crowd was attracted
to the scene of the fire last night
Our colored people are splendid to
help on these distressing occasions.
Mr.. Babb was at New Bethel last
Sunday, had a fine congregation, and
a responsive people. He took the
