tant proposition will be placed before
the people of the town for action; and it
is of the utmost Importance that every

The People Of TazeWsII viii Make Glad the
Hearts of the Counbs Unfutunates by
6ifts and a Christmas Dinner.

Amid the festivities of the Yuletide
let US not forget that there are some

battle of life, some not so fortunate as
ourselves, to be able to sit around their
own tables to enjoy the blessing so
bountifully bestowed upon US during the
past year. Let this knowledge put a
generous feeling into our hearts to
share with the old, the main, the halt
and the blind, or those who through
other misfortune are inmates at the
county farm.
Through the untiring efforts of few
of the good women of Tazewell. for
some years past, di1ner has been pre-
pared for the inma,es at the farm, and
with it a simple service of prayer and
song and few gifts have gone to re-
mind them that the Christ spirit still
lives in the Christmas times of Taze-
well.
To any one who wishes to share in
the work this year, a committee con-
sisting of Mesdames C. R. Brown.
Harry Buston and Miss Ella Bowen, has
been appointed; and any contribution of
money, clothing, eatables, or articles
suitable for presents to the inmates at
the farm may be given to any one of
this committee, who will see that it
reaches the people at the farm.
The party will leave town for the
farm on Thursday afternoon at o'clock.
ANY one wishing to join in the service
at the farm are welcome to do so; and
those wishing to contribute eatables for
the dinner will kindly arrange to make
the delivery to the committee on Thurs
day morning. Clothing. toys, etc., may
be sent in at any time.
