 Young man, don't smoke. Keep down expenses if you would start in the world A five cent cigar once a day would amount to $18.25 in one year. Start bank account and save that amount and at per cent simple interest you would have S570. % in the bank at the end of twenty years. Save little out of your earnings each day and some day you may be independent.
 Some people seem to be obliged to talk mean about others. That seems to be their only subject of interest on which to spend an hour in neighborly conversation. Soon you hear what they said and naturally you get mad as hornet, unless you are an angel. Since that is seldom the case, we would advise you to be wise and cool off. Remember that gossipers have very little judgment and common sense.
 The town council changed hands Monday night, Mayor Backus and the new regime of alderman taking hold of the reins of our municipal government with becoming dignity and eclat. Two ordinances, appearing elsewhere in this issue, were ground out at the first sitting and from the general maneuver- ings we judge that we may expect something doing right along every meeting night. We have fine team of officials now yoked up. In building up Green Forest we are sure to have both the council and Mayor Backus.
 In the regular grind of local news last week mention was made of wed- ding that is of more than passing i'm portance to the people of Green Forest. | When Will Tate claimed the hand of Miss Georgia Reeves, he purposed to take from among us one of our best girls. Miss Georgia ranked. among the most popular young ladies of the town and her presence and influence in society and church circles and the Bap- tist Sunday School especially will be missed It is source of pleasure, however, to state that the young man, who has claimed her, is a gentleman worthy in every respect. He is among the leading young teachers of the county, industrious and of good habits. We understand that Mir. and Mrs. Tate will within few weeks make their home near Alpena.
