 Things Remember
 Editor News:]I remember seeing the Editor of The News when he was so small I'm sure he didn't think much about running a print ing press. I remember 1t has been more than two years since bid The News goodbye as one of it's cor respondents, but still enjoy the weekly visits of your valuable pa per and on account of long ac- quantance with the paper and it's numerous correspondents that l know personally makes Us feel al most akin to some of them
 I ber=for number of years We have been living in government managed and controlled by the Republican party and to them belonged all the spells by ap- pointment and otherwise but to- day We are watching and witness ing the operations and management of this great government by the Democrats who came into power very abruptly.
 I remember there was time when there was not so much dis satisfaction and unrest among the people as there is now Men, wo- men and even ttoze q tender years are clamoring for something different to what they have. no one satisfied with their present condi- ton in life. the mind is kept in strain, no1 tie happiness and love for home that should be. boys and girls want to leave home rush out into the busy world before they quit wearing knee pants and short dresses
 remember also fifty years ago the good women of the land were not trying to make themselves con- spicuous and more masculine and others miserable by leaving the cares of home and children and wanting to engage in filthy poli- ties
 remember when side saddles were very much in use. for nearly all rode horse back in those days There were no buggies and very few wagons except among the wealthy Women kept both Of their feet on the same side Of the horse then. not 50 now.
 remember when people dressed differently to what they do now Al one time the pants men wore. the leg was large enough at the bottom 10 cover nearly all Of The foot. and the women al that time swere try iag 10 see Wbo ould wear the larg- est hoops. unlike the aobble skirt of to-day that prohibits one from getting in buggy O stepping aeross t mud hole
 remember when o.d people said 1t was very anbeeomtag 3or one 10 smoke in the presence of ladies. es- pecially a young man while in com pany with young lady. quite diff erent now The order Of things have been reversed. iu fact many things that was not admirable fif- ty years ago seem to be alright now.
 Again I remember when religious services were not as rule con ducted like they are now Then we had no extra little organizations in the church, the business not managed then like II Is now. Old time religion has hard struggle to keep up With the fashion. In those days had no plano. organ, yi- olin or horn to toot. just had to make music with the mouth The preaehee would read his hymn, two lines al time, tell whether the po- etry was marked short. long or com mon metre, then ask some brother to pitch and carry the tune while all the congregation would join and help sing There was no new fang l led doings about the business, no solos. duetts. quartetts for show, Just went to worship God in a plain old way There are many other things I remember but will stop here by saying
 Since man by sin hath lost his
 God
 He seeks creation through And vainly strives for solid bliss
 In trying something new" Tyro.
