WORNER WAITS.
MIR. Marion Daniel Elected Justice of
Peace. Personal Mention.

1t has been several years since we
had a candidate for justice of the
peace or constable who didn't have
some one against him, but there was
no opposition to Mr.. Marion Daniel
last Saturday. Our community isn't
looking after politics, for we have
found out that they are rotten and
disgusting.
All of our old bachelors who want
to marry had better get a move on
themselves for if they don't there
won't be anybody handy for them to
get, as the girls will all be married
and gone. You catches" had bet
ter get one before they are all spoken
FOR, for their faces are plump and
sweet.
Our telephone system is a good
thing. You might get a message to
Parrott in one hour with good luck,
but they want ten cents a message
all the same, and two dollars per
month for the rent of a phone. But
that is the way our money goes.
Mr.. John Lundy, who lives in
tennessee, spent one night last week
with Mr.. j. D. Lain. Mr.. Lundy and
Mr.. Lain are old friends, and as they
had not seen each other in several
years the night was mostly spent in
talking over olden times.
There are several of our good cit
zens' names in the jury box now
about one in every family. Well
every family, as a common thing.
has one pet. The rest have to paw
their taxes all the same
Mr.. Marion Daniel was elected
Justice of the peace Saturday to fill
the vacancy caused by Judge M. L.
Ellis death. We could not have
elected better man for the office.
Mrs. Willie Faircloth, who was
very low for some time, is getting
along nicely now We sympathize
with her, for she has been over some
rough roads the past six months.
Our roads need work mighty bad.
They also need widening, for in some
places you can hardly pass a wagon
or buggy. But our road taxes have
to be paid just the same.
There is talk of Mr.. John T. Davis.
who lives near Cottondale, moving
to Parrott and going into the mer-
camille business next year. We hope
for him success.
We have had some breaking of
records in cotton picking. Little
Tobitha Lain picked 25O pounds in
one day, which was very good for a
girl.
Mr.. w. J. Lain must be going to
bring in some one to rattle the dishes
for him, as he wants to buy nice
farm if he can get a place to suit
him
Mr. Homer RADON had his little
girls head lanced Saturday bv DR.
Arnold. She is suffering very much
but we hope she will soon be better
1t is the dryest weather through
our community in several years, and
the cotton crop is ruined. There
won't be more than a half crop.
Messrs. D. T. Turner, Stafford
Eaton and Bill Davis went lack
fishing last week, and reported q
nice time and plenty of fish.
/ Mrs. Dlllia Lain, who lives near
Cottondale, will soon be off to FIori-
da to visit relatives and friends, She
Will be gone several days.
Aunt Manda Davis is very feeble
we hope she will soon be better.
Trade at Worner is the dullast
