THE PRoMisg OF SPRING.
The price Of coal 10 going up,
Tho mercury Goes down:

The mercury goes down:
Pneumonia nips the pampered pup.
And zero grips the town.
The horses SILVER In the street.
The drivers stamp their heels:
The peddlers all have frozen feet
And even steam congeals.
But what Of that? We still can sing.
Cheer up! We're one day nearer
spring."
The chauffeurs chafe their frigid
Policemen beat their breasts;
Jack Frost the window.panes w.
neers
And birds seek last year nests;
The welkin rings with rancous
coughs.
All Arctic Is the air:
The ground.hog grunts and gayly
While lingering In his lair.
But hope eternal makes US ring.
"Hooray! We're one day nearer
spring."

ton, while it was on display in the
library building here early last sum-
mer, will be exceedingly pleased to
learn that it is to be here again this
year. The Art Educational Association
has arranged to stand sponsor for its
appearance here from the twenty-ninth
of February to the sixth of March.
During this time the exhibit may be
seen in the assembly room Of the city
library. It is better than last year, as
it contains an entire group of new
paintings, and in yet other respects
it is predicted that the display will be
more attractive than on it's first ap-
pearance.
Last year during it's stay in this city
the exhibit was visited by very large
number of local men and women, who
found a lively pleasure in the highly
creditable work of artists of their own
state A number, for one reason or
another. failed to see the pictures, and
have regretted the fact ever since.
These like the others who saw the dis
play, will find a decided pleasure in
the news that the pictures are coming
again, and will allow no contingency
to cause them to miss it.-Conners-

Another bond issue is talked
of FOR Wise county. The road
builders find that the issue of
300, 900 will not be sufficient
to build roads all over the conn-
ty. The moro the people see of
the new improved roads the
more they want of the same
kind. We predict the same for
Tazewell. When the issue of
$650,o00 is expended, and the
value of the new roads made
evident there will be n demand
for at least $3.50, 900
additional to be spent on
the cross country roads. A
million dollar debt for Wise,
Russell or Tazewell would be
insignificant, compared with
the value of good roads all over
the county. The people of
Tazewell are willing to pay
for luxuries, and there is no
greater luxury than good roads,
to say nothing of the question
of commercial values. -Taze.
