will be great drawback to the dem

make republican success a sure thing
this year if Bill don't flop again before
the election, but once man gets TO

she would dare to make you promise
of marriage for fear you would change
your mind before the day arrived.
And now, Representative l have
other reasons for not writing before.

only found out here lately that l was
under great mistake. Some will con-
tend yet that they are free, but If you
will put the tick, dog and registration
laws upon their hip, they will have to
confess that they have to do as some
body else says. Their freedom crops

help the preachers They are all
right. Go to home that obeys the
rules of their church and you find they
obey the law. They always are ready
to help those in distress. They don t
care about the law for it doesn't con-
fiict with them, nor do they object to
pay the preacher for it is their duty.
| have worked on public works up
wards of twenty years, and the man
that always kicked about payday was
the man that drew the least money and
he was always kicking about condit-
ions and looking after other mems bus
mess and leaving his own alone. Here
are my views about supporting the
churches: 1t is duty that we owe to
God. They that are born of the spirit
ought to give as they see fit, and l
think a person does wrong to mess
with any church. So let us all look
after our own church and help to build
it up and we will be blessed. 1t is
more honor to build up than to tear
down.
Uncle Tom Floyd took dinner with
D. A. Kilgore Sunday. We are glad
to see him out again.
ALI Painter and family took dinner
at Frank Green's Sunday.
Bro. Bolden was at his post Sunday
and had large crowd. He is doing
good work. We are well pleased with
him. 1t seemed like Tates Chapel
was dead, but things have changed.
We have a good Sunday school and
things look prosperous.
