A goodly number of our people
are speaking of going over to Little
Stevens Creek Wednesday and
Thursday in autos. Horse flesh is

Mr.. Alonzo Doolittle is stepping
high now. The Stork left him fine
boy last Sunday and l ! heard man
say he is stepping like "a blind dog
in a meat house." His name is not

not know what it is. Say, isn't it
strange, that some of Edgefeld''
rabid Bleasites are not naming thell
children "Colie"?

I never saw them as promising foI
