Slighs, Jan. 3.-A Happy New Year
to all.
Well, We have again been permitted
to enter into the beginning Of another
New Year, and we should truly be
thankful. While several things have
worked against Us las it seems) dur
ing the past year, yet We ought to be
thankful that our lives have b2e |
spared. So many lives have passed
away and we have been left for some
purpose, and we should, while We are
spared, try to do our part and then
the weather, bad roads, what our
neigtbor thinks Of us, etc., maybe
won't worry us SO very badly. If We
....cI,'t possess as much property or
,s d::A.cs qlite as fnc and keep u
with Ill CT th2 "Styles and fashions,
as some people can, why fret ABOUT
it? If We have contented mind and
a clear conscience, holding no malice
or yet-mindedness against our fel-
bowman, but rather have good wishes
for him, we will enjoy life much bet
ter. Let's try it this year and see if
it doesn't pay
!: Grain is up good and looking fine.
More than usual was sown.
The holidays passed off very quietly
through this section as far as we can
learn.
The roads are In a Condition that
We haven't seen af1ysne pass along
through the mud very swiftly recent
ly.
The infant of Mr. and Mrs. Nolan
Long, of near Bachman Chapel, died
Monday afternoon at 4 O'Clock, of
Whooping cough, and was buried at
Colony church Tuesday afternoon.
The funeral services were conducted
by the Rev. Jas. D. Kinard.
Mr.. Jefferson Quattlebaum moved
last week near Mr.. B. C. Matthews,
and Mr.. W. Howard Mccullough moy-
ed into the house vacated by Mr.. Quat-
tlebaum.
A portion of the congregations of
the pastorats consisting Of Beth Ede..
Colony and St. James met at the home
OF their pastor, Rev. J. D. Kinard, On
last Friday, the 10Th, and spent a most
pleasant day with them. The dinner
was very nice and was enjoyed by all
present. 1t was also plentiful. Rev.
Kinard and family are held very high
ly in the opinion of all. l think that
he is giving as near entire satisfac-
tion as is possible for any mal to do.
Mr.. and Mrs. Levi Schumpert spent
from last Saturday until Sunday att
the home Of Mr.. Schumpert's mother,
Mrs. Jno. NJ. schumpert, of the Mt.
Pilgrim section.
Miss Annie Bobb, of near Colony.

Mrs. W. B. Franklin.
Union school is moving along nice
ly with Mr.. J. J. Kibler, of the st.
Phillips section, as teacher. He is
doing his duty, and if the children
don't learn it won't be the fault of
Mr.. Kibler.
Mr.. Editor, We wish you much sue
cess in your new field of labor. Edu-
cation is almost a necessity and any,
thing to help it along should be ap-
preciated. The school boy who doesn't
have his mind On books as much as
on playing, will find when he is fur
ther advanced in life that his teacher
was working for his good when he
seemed so cross to him by compelling
him to study.
If some one would put up wood
yard in NeWberry, or near by, it
seems that there would be some profit
in it. Wood is one of the needs as
We journey through life, and occasion
ally the roads get so that if we travel
through the mud in buggy it has to
be a "sioW travel"
May we all have prosperous year
and live to see many more New Years.
