The Farmville herald. [volume] (Farmville, Va.) 1890-1934, 1910-03-11

Let your Easter hat occupy ass lit
Tie space n the world as dame fash
ion Will permit
While the sun was shining warm
and good. as it did many days of
last week. you could almost see the
grass grow.
During the pleasant days of early
March the Bench was crowded
with the old timers, but as yet only
fish stories are allowed.
How about an entertainment by
home talent for the benefit Of the
Farmville Silver Band? That's thel
Herald's suggestion, and now Jet i'll
assume practical shape.
You miss lots unless you see the
procession moving up and down
High street. The best time for seeing.
il is Immediately after dinner orI
just before the supper hour.
We had a peep at the lettuce of
Mr. Vernon Nenable ON Wednesday
evening. and they begin to take ON
form and to lit their heads And
when he begins to cut for market .
he viii keep the express busy.
We beg to say to our friends in
the country that there will never bel
another mud hole within the corpo-
rate limits of Farmville. Jupiter did
nod his time. but will not be caught
nodding again.
Saturday last was a most delight
ful day in the natural world, but
somehow it didn't impress US as be
ing a extra business day in town.
Our hope. however. is that in this "
are mistaken. Things are not al
ways what they seem"
Now let home talent take charge
of another home entertainment, and
score another success and keep all
the money at home. Take up the
matter at once and press it to sue
cessful conclusion. We all want to
meet you again. if not at the Fer
nv" then by the moonlight alone
Mr.. c. b. Pickett doesn't say that
ne bought the richest land in Prince
Edward. but he does say that since
buying the farm he did buy. he has
never been without meat in the
smokehouse, grain and forage I'M
the barn. abundant supply of milk
and butter. and fat hens and fresh
eggs. So he got a rich mine after
all.
High street presented a scene OF
nfe and beauty Sunday afternoon.
Automobiles and baby carriages, pc
destrians and equestrians. married
couples and counting couples, thel
small boy and the stalwart man
passed and repassed in imposing pro |
cession. We doubt if New York's
fashionable avenue was more alive
or enlivening.
The election on Tuesday last was
without incident of interest Mr..
Turnout. having no opposition, tee
voters stayed at their homes and at
their work, SO that the vote was a
light one. Still the Hon Robert
Turnbull is our next representative
i'm Congress. and in this hour Of r.
nal triumph. we send him again our
congratulations.
1t has been intimated that under
new running orders the night trains
on the Norfolk and Western would
deal with Farmville as a flag sta
ton. This will never do, and the
Board of Trade will see to it that
the little city on the Appomattox is
not catalogued with cross roads The
president of the great corporation
having ridden over our streets and I.
met with our people around the ban
quoting board should prevent any
such slur.
