that uses Electric Bitters. Her
strong nerves tell in a bright brain

To those who are slow about
paying their monthly accounts:
When we draw off the accounts
and present them eff course that
means we need money and we will
appreciate it very much if our
customers will pay promptly when
accounts are presented. Our heavy
loss in bank failure has been so
great that we are not able to carry

without settlement. We will APP
preciate it if more attention is paid
to an account when presented.

Farming is getting along nicely
in this part at present, the writer
is enjoying nice rain that is fall
ing this eve he naturally enjoys
a little rain once in a while any
way, but it makes him feel bad
to think how he will have to work
when it is all over.
The preaching at Prospect was
good Sunday last. Rev J M Wri-
ght preached the Communion Ser
mon all seemed to enjoy the day
first-class especially us young folks
We courted to a fare you-well, but
never mind there will be some log
cabins to build this fall. We
would after preaching take our
best girls to some nearby shade
sit her down and sit down By her
side take her hand in ours and for
an hour and never say a word, but
the touch of that hand had the eff
feet of electric wire, but in the end
the result would be as mentioned
above, but the thought and love
was there.
Thought discovers continents,
love peoples them. Thoughts,
build homes, love lives in them
thoughts make money love spends
it, thought fashions glossy fabrics
into fascinating frills, flounces and
furbelows, love fits them on her
fairy form and goes floating down
the aisle like powdered barque
of heavenly beauty all rugged with
ruddy ropes of ribbon and rustling
sails of silk bowling to the right
and to the left and turning the air
into music WITH her laughter and
song, until some moneyless dude
sights her off the coast of matri-
mony and fires his title across her
brow and she heaves too, never
the-less we have a good time and
it isn't any bodys business how we
court just SO it brings the desired
results.
Guess this will do for the first
attempt I will try to come again if |
this misses the waste basket You
will know me best as

The Tri-County Normal

udVC just llldlleu out 10 leach
ers and prospective teachers the
announcement of the Tri-County
Normal to be held at Bonneville,
Miss, July e5th to August 9th,
1912. | know that it will be i'm
possible for all the teachers of the
county to attend, but ! would be
glad to have as many go as can
possibly do so. If you cannot
stay the month, go down for few
days at least and get acquainted
with the teachers of the adjoining
counties. Attending normals and
teachers meetings becomes a
habit when once begun and gro ws
on us to the betterment of the
school that we try to teach. In
some parts of the state trustees
and patrons compel their teachers
to attend these norinals. If they
fail to do SO they are discarded and
others put in their places.
While at Oxford / met teachers
from different parts of the state
and learned, to my sorrow, that
we are far behind in Tishomingo
county. In the 'piney woods
region" of South Mississippi some
counties have a school levy of
three mills and run their schools
seven months. Until few years
ago this region was considered
worthless, but is now one of the
most progressive parts of the state
These counties are drawing the
best teachers from counties that
have shorter terms and if the State
Board continues its policy of
harder examinations" as it
started out this spring, what the
results on the schools of Tisho-
mingo county will be cannot say
The County Examing Board can
not: under their oaths, ignore
the standard set by the State Board
aud give out license regardless of
merit. 1t has been almost inn
possible to secure enough teachers
for the schools in the past and if
the State Board continues it's pol
icy | fear there will be a number
of schools this fall that will be
unable to secure teachers. We
ought to be able to supply the
schools of Tishomingo county
with Tishomingo county boys and
girls. But can these boys and
girls afford to spend their time
and money in preparing them
selves to pass these rigid exami-
nations in order that they may
teach little four month SCHOOL,
AS Cleveland said, 1T is a con-
dition that confronts us and not a
theory" / want those who are
interested in the rural schools of
Tishomingo county to think over
these conditions. Are you salts
fed to go with four month term
or would you be willing to bear
the extra cost of another month?
To lengthen the term to five
months with the present amount
of money | would have to reduce
the present salary about wenty
per cent. Could you secure a
teacher for school at the price?
Think over these things.
Very truly yours,
