There are more Ed Balls than one,
and it so happened that we saw two

E. f. Ball, whom we usually al

the midweek and looked in on our
printery. Ed is a kinsman of our
goodly young assistant compositor,

task is over and he can resume his
office duties as clerk of the courts
and keeper of the county records.
E. G. Ball, who is one OF the
staunch citizens of the Gown OF SIM
liar name left to Greene in the di-
vision, came up to the county seat
Wednesday. E. G, is one OF those
whom we have reason to believe Is
firm friend and endorser of the
Herald; anyway he has our high
regard.
in employing the word "sycophan
cy" last week in the editorial about
Greene County falling into the Cir
cult Court district of Judge Buckley,
we made the word read thus, 'cyco-
phancy," that is to begin with &c"
instead of IS" the latter Of which is
the correct consonant to commence
its spelling.
Among those who stood the exam
ination here Friday and Saturday,
was Prof. W. A. Avera of Rocky
Greek. AYera is being mentioned
down there in connection with the
appointment OF superintendent OF
Education for the New County Of

qualified by residency.

dence tor Geo. B. McRae on lot ad-
jacent to his fathers place, which he

the exercises for the closlng of the
LeakesvilIe High School Will be pull
ed off Monday and Tuesday night OF
next week. He has communicated
with several prominent speakers Gu
deavoring to secure an orator 70" the
occasion, but at this writing is IN
able to announce as to that feature,
Judge Buckley has decided to hold
the May Term of Circuit Court as
provided for by the terms of the Re
districting Bill passed by the Legis-
lature of 1910. See his notice in
to that effect. His idea as we IN
derstand it is to begin right by get
ting on the Court schedule and keep
ing on 1t. OF this we are glad as
Greene has in days past got some
poor deals in the way OF regular as
sured holdings of her assizes.
