FIRST BAPTIST

Our Sunday School was small
last Sunday; only 10i, but there
were others we are told. Surely we
can do better than that. Let US
all be in our places next Sunday at
9:45 a. m. We have been excusing
you if you were lazy or sick. The
fall of the year is here and we can
excuse no one now unless ne is
sick or in the lock up.
DR.. and Mrs. Dew will be here to
commence special meetings Sunday
Bro. Dew has no claptrap or high
pressure methods, but he has a
right to expect the most prayerful
and sympathetic co operation OF
every member of the First Baptist
Church. Of course there are some
who are i'll, and others live so far
in the country that they cannot at
tend all the time but come every
time you can please.
We give everybody a most cor.
dial invitation to attend the meet
ings. Your presence in the service
will be a great encouragement to us
and we are sure you will be blessed
in coming.

To the knocker.

Hide the sounding board likewise;
Anyone can be a knocker;
Anyone can criticise.
Cultivate a manner winning,
Though it hurts your face to smile
And seems awkward in beginning
Be a Booster for while.
Let the blacksmith do the pounding;
That's the way he draws his pay.
You don't Get a cent for pounding
Saint and sinner, night and day.
Just for soldid satisfaction
Drop a kind word in the slot.
And I'll warrent you'll get action
On your efforts on the spot.
Kindness every time beats kicking;
Mirth is better than frown;
Do not waste your time in tpicking
Flaws with brothers who are down.
And it isn't so distressing
If you give a little boost
To the man that fatesEare pressing
When the chicks come home to

LIVE HARDLY ON "oLD ROCK"
Shetland Islanders Know Little Of
Comfort, and Are Early Aeeus-
toned to Peril.

The sea and the winds-these are
the great facts that color the lives Of
the Shetlanders, that hedge them
about with loneliness on the outer
rim of living, and that give them a
richness of personal association.
On the outside are Just the great
waters that seem to grudge sea room
to the islands, and so they have driven
their way into the land with great
blue woes; they dash themselves
against the high western cliffs as II
they some day would climb up the
hundreds of feet that thwart them, to
the very top, where the cormorants
and curlews are crying down the
wind. No wonder the Romans called
the Shetlands Ultima Thule, the
farthest land, the end of the world.
Rolling seas, sweeping winds, solitary
hills, great stretches of moorland, and
inside, little warm toons, where the
folk cling to one another.
For one another is all those who
stay at home to have to cling to. The
great world outside claims many of
them, for the islands can scarcely sup
port $4,000 souls; other hearths and
other lands know them. Three hun
dred of them are captaining vessels,
and many more are sailing before the
mast, for the deep sea draws them as
1t did their forbears thousand years
ago. Many of those that stay at home
send their Morse hearts wandering
into distant lands, while their bodies
stay on the old rock" as the Shet-
landers call their home.
But even at home the sea is their
mistress, constant to them only in the
WITNESSES with which 1t offers up its
treasure trove, certain only, sooner or
later, to stamp it's power into the
hearts OF its people with bitter scars,
The blue-eyed young sailors, the brave
fishermen, fathers of families for
years win their living from 1t; and at
home, mothers and wives watch the
skies and the waves and pray in their
hearts as they sing the old songs "a
their bairnies, while outside the wind

Fine Ending of Bad Situation.
About six years ago while Tom
Baldwin and his SONS were thresh-
ing for Walter Webb west of Gran
vile, the ricks of grain caught fire
and were destroyed. The sparks
that set fire to 1t came from the en-
CINE and a dispute arose as to who
was responsible. Suit was brought
by Webb and it went through the
courts. resulting in Webb losing the
case and about $1,000 for fees, ex-
penses, etc. For the past six years
there has been anything but a
friendly feeling between these prom
inent families.
From cases similar to the above
feelings are sometimes engendered
that occasionally result in bodily
harm They are called feuds in
Kentucky. In this case, howe yer,
the principals decided that it was
not right that this feeling should
exist and both have been ready to
end it, be it said to their credit.
Therefore. a little over a week
ago Webb went to one of the Bald
wins and proposed that they call
bygones forgotten and that Bald
win again do his threshing this
year. This was instantly accepted
by Baldwin in the spirit it was ten
dered and the families. who arr
close neighbors, are good friends
again. It's the only proper way tt
end such uncivilized situations. -

urge you to make this trip,

Choice Quality Wheat Grown in

Ten thousand barrels of fiou: made

the demand has exceeded all October

Practically all this -four will be used

and the hum of industry goes on
increasingly. Every day the mills
run 325 barrels of the best flour in
the country are stacked up on the

ears that are waiting on the side tracks.
S. Stewart. proprietor of the mills,
stated to the Tribune yesterday that
the present autumn s business Is start

full capacity of the mills and is giving
him some difficulty in securing grain
as fast as it is ground. He has three
grain elevators in the county besides
the mill which are paying fancv
premiums for grain. This gives the
farmers of the county a decided ad-
vantage and they are delivering much
wheat to the Stewart grain houses to
be poured through the MACH inery at
Morris mills. New wheat has come
for the most part from the shock and
has been Ct very good quality but

Since then a good many settlers have

first trees set out failed to lives Many
trees were too tender to stand the

The south part of the state grows

there does not seem to be any reason
