Well Mr., Editor as have not writ
ten any for your paper for quite awhile
l thought would ask for little space
this week.
Health in this community, generally
speaking, is good.
Uncle John Neal is not able to be
out any this summer and he is badly
missed.
Crops here look good. We are hav-
ing lots Of rain as we'll as beans and
taters.
Say Mr. Editor l would like to tell
You about our all day singing here
Sunday and I shall endeaver SO to do
if you will promise to stand between
Bro. McVann and I, while tell it,
lest l fall into condemnation, Now
here 1T goes. Sunday June Goth,
1915,was the day that four Of our best
friends, in the persons Of Bros. Aus
tin Smith, Birch Wilcox, Charlie
Stanton, andJeff Wall came out from
your Queen City"to Shipley to spend
the day with us, which was done by
reading some scripture lessons, s,some
prayers, some lovely talks and host
OF the sweetest songs to which man
ever listened It seemed like the Holy
Spirit was with them in every song
and every word they spoke. And
the whole congregation listened with
awe struck silence the whole day
and many expressed their
and gratitude for the day
and be 1t right or wrong, Bro McVann
the day was a great inspiration to US,
it was better than revival. It was
the best day that old Shipley has ex-
perienced tor many years It win
not be forgotten soon, And now in
conclusion we wish them long and
happy life of usefulness and pray
Gods richest blessings upon them
wherever they may go or roam. May
theirpath lighted with reason, Hal
lowed with Hopes supernal glory
and If we should never meet and sing
together here we hope to meet them
with the blood washed millions there
20 sing throughout eternity.

GUS hogs of good quality is the basic
factor in successful pork production.
They are raising hogs at a big profit.
