beginning to warm up some in this
section. Mr.. Geo. w. Scofield was
among his friends here last week.
Mr.. Scofeld made many friends dur
ding his visit here

no doubt if all precincts go as this
does, it will be useless for Senator
Fletcher to debate with Mr.. Stock
ton.
A few showers will be welcomed
by the farmers until oat harvesting
time only a short ways off, The oat
crop is not so good this year.
The bean and tomato crops on the
.Oklawaha River Farms are looking
fine. Irish potatoes are doing extra
fine and will soon be ready to dig
The drouth has not effected this
farm as badly as elsewhere, as the
flood gates are open and water can
run thru the lateral bitches, making
perfect irrigation system
The closing exercises of the Okla
waha school last Saturday was a big
success and everyone reported an
enjoyable time. The exercises began
at 10 O'Clock, when nice and we'll
arranged program was rendered.
After the exercises Superintendent
j. H. Brinson, made short talk to
the school. Dinner was announced,
and beneath the shade trees a most
bountiful picnic dinner was spread.
After full justice to the spread, the
jolly party marched to the baseball
diamond where the Oklawaha and
Gambler teams crossed bats in
match game. The Gambler team was
victorious. Those present from Moss
Bluff were Messrs NJ. O. Morrison,
Alva Barker, Addie Morrison, Carl
Hightower, A. NJ. Morrison, Arthur
Davis, Fred Davis, Maude Davis,
Angie Collins, D. NJ. Hall, w. C.
White and Berry Roberts.

inc, spent a few days with his par
ents at Electra.
Rev. Corbett filled his regular ap-
pointment at Electra Sunday.
The young men OF Moss Bluff and
