Brief Local Stories

Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence Smith
and children, of the Dry Greek
neighborhood, left last week for
California, making the trip in q
wagon with two mules hitched
to it. The wagon was well fitted
up for making the long journey,
and was supplied with groceries
and feed stuffs to last for many
days. They will go by way of
Memphis and through Arkansas.
Brandon made a very liberal
donation of groceries, clothing,
ETC., to the orphanage car which
passed through Monday after
noon. Those in charge of the
work here were very much graf
flied with the hearty response OF
our good people to this noble
cause. The car was practically
full when it reached Brandon,
which shows the commendable
spirit of charity and thanksgiv-
ing that exists among our people.

BEHIND THE BARS.

Little Mary was attending
church with her parents one
morning for the first time. The
minister was of the energetic,
pulpit humping type. and
preached from a rostrum rallied
in, above the people. He ex-
celled himself this day in the
humping tactics and worked
himself to a pitch of high ex-
citement. Mary covered close
to her mothers side, and when
he reached a point which he en-
phasized more than all others,
che exclaimed in a frightened
whisper, Mamma, what would
we do if he got out?'
