quite little bit, and / expect il the
real private sentiment of the majority
of the readers Of the News was public
~ expressed. it would be sold Joe,
you had better remain silent But,
be this as it may, am going to APP
pear again, provided / cross safely over
the waste basket
observed some time ago that our
old friend, j. A. Lewis, of TT. Worth,
Texas, had become a reader of the
News. Was really glad to see his
name appear, and have been hoping to
see communication from his old pen
ell appear in the News, but have fail
ed so far. Wake up, J. A, and tell us
something aboat Texas through the
News. There would be whole lot of
us Ridgeites appreciate items from
Texas by you. We would also love to
hear from "Uncle Tom," of Grape
vine, Texas, through the News Wake
up Tommy, and let us hear from you.
Tell us about Sam A. and all the
rest of the boys.
We are all getting pretty busy over
on this side of the ridge, now since
springtime has come. You can hear
the boys all around hollering, "Gee,
Haw," etc. Corn planting seems to
be the rush now.
Let everybody go to work now and
maybe prosperity" will come around
our way after while.
Well, we lock for better times in our
community now as we are having
preaching nearly every Sunday. Bros.
Clonce, Ramsey, Potter, Motley, Hurt
and others have been instructing us in
the way we should go and we hope
that great good will be the result.
We all need general awakening to
our christian duties.
i We need good Sunday school here.
We often wonder what will be our ex'
cuses when we are called on to account
for the way we spend our holy Lord
days. We can't say we have no time
to go to Sunday school for we see oul
people all on the stir. We go visiting
our friends and neighbors, which il
right, but why not go to Sunday
school, then go over and spend tbs
evenings and have social time, con
versing with our friends on matters
pertaining to higher and better lives
We should all look to and work for the
betterment of humanity. Look ovel
your daily papers and just see what il
going on all over the world. See thu
d suicides, the homicides of the differen
degrees, arson and thousands upol
thousands of crimes committed by hu
man beings, and then stand up an(
say we are growing better all thu
time We do need schools, and not on
" schools at the school houses ant
church houses, but in our own individ
,ial houses The good book says t.
bring up a child in the way it SHOULD
go and when he becomes old he will
not depart from it (Solomon1. Choos'
you now the way you want your chilt
to go and raise him to that position.
