Mr.. Jessie Hyatt, a thrifty far
mer living near Reedy Greek
church, died on the night of Dec.
18TH, after an illness of only a few
hours. Several hours before his
death he appeared to be in his US
ual good health and his sudden
taking off was great shock to his
family and friends. Mr.. Hyatt is
survived by a wife and eight chill
dren who have the sympathy of
the community in their bereave-
ment. The deceased was a native
of this section, having been rails
ed near Pleasant Grove church and
his body was buried there on the
day following his death.

spect; there is nothing in him that
he can respect himself. He might
tolerate. himself. He could tole-
rate anything. You could spit on
him and he would smile back.
You could kick him and he would
draw more closely within himself
and say nothing. All he wants is
to be let live.
This turtle on two legs is of no
more use than one on four. And
his shell of complacency is as hard
and shuts him in as closely from
the nerve throbbing world as does
the shell of the turtle.
The successful man has to wor-
ry, and he does. Worry is one OF
the best forms OF expression OF
mental activity. 1t is the reAec-
ton of dissatisfaction with ones
shortcomings or conditions. 1t is
the first incentive to Improvement.
1t is the first step toward resolve
and effort.
Worrying over trifies is foolish.
Worrying other people with ou1
worries is pernicious. You car
make life miserable for yoursel
with the one and for everybody
who knows you with the other.
But don't be a turtle!
The man who never worries is
nothing but an existence, unsatis.
factory to himself and disgusting
to others. The mother who neve,
worries has had, the chances are
ten or twelve children born to hel
and has complacently put eight o,
ten of them away in their little
graves. The graves will prob,
ably be nicely kept, but the chill
dren underground can not appre
ciate that.
Don't worry over worry. You car
stand it. A little of it.-Memphi:

A Plantation Christmas Tree,

A happy revival of the antc-bel-
lum custom of having a plantation
Christmas tree and presenting each
of the employees on the estate with
a present brought JOY and glad
ness to the hearts of the colored
population on Mr.. II. L. Man
ning's plantation Christmas morn
ing. The colored population on
Mr.. Mannings plantation, includ-
ing the women and children, num-
bers about seventy-five and on
Christmas morning every one of
the employees and their wives and
children were invited to the house
where a large tree in the dining
room prepared by Mrs. Manning
was loaded with presents for
every person on the plantation,
from the smallest piccaninny up to
the oldest and stoutest "mauma. 1"
Mr.. Manning played the role of
Santa Claus aid while the pre-
sents were being distributed Mr..
Wade Hamton, Jr., of Danville,
Va, played old time plantation
melodies on the violin that brought
back to the older darkies pleasant
recollections of the days that were.
The novelty of the occasion ap-
pealed strongly to the younger
darkies present and after receiv-
ing their presents each went away
with the smile that won't wear
off" After the presents were
distributed Mrs. Manning served
a delightful Christmas brerkfas,
which was greatly enjoyed by q
few invited guests.
