Rural Hill

Two fine boys made their appear.
ance in Rural Hill last week, the sons
of Mr.. and Mrs. Godfry and Mr.. anc
Mrs. Crawford, all are doing we'll al
this writing.
Mr.. John Luther and family have
just moved m our community from
over in Alabama. Mr. Luther anc
family come to us well recommended
and are family that any community
might be proud of and we are con-
graduating ourselves in securing
these good people for our neighbors.
Mr.. Geo. Griffin and wife are visit
ing the "old folks" Mr.. and Mrs. A
d. Griffin. They are on their way to
Texas.
Mr., j. A. Dodson and wife made
the home of their son, Moloy Dodson
happy by their visit this week.
We had the pleasure of visiting
Rural Hill school short time this
past week and found our school full
about one hundred on the roll with
twelve or fifteen more to come in
next week. We are thinking of ask
ing Mr.. Stanley, our County Superin-
tenddlt of Education to give us
another teacher and it looks now like
we will have to have more room
next year. More children coming into
our homes and more moving into our
community has made our buildings
too small.
The play at Rural Hill will be on
Christmas night and the play will
have ten characters in three acts. The
characters represent five old maids
and five bachelors, each trying not
to get married and at the same time
trying all they know how to get mar
ried. There will be a small charge
not over 20 cents, and this will go t.
the Improvement of our school and
grounds. Everyone is cordially in
vitcd
McBee school will have play al
Tabernacle church, the white Christ
mas in connection with this there
will be a Christmas tree free to every
body, so come and bring your friend
and a present. There two plays will
rot conflict with each other as We
are told that one will take place or
Tuesday night, the other on Friday
night at the church.
Business seems to be picking ur
near Rural Hill as the State Lac
Saw Mill has resumed work after
several weeks closedown. We also
notice that the firm of Thorton anc
Miller are preparing to build saw
mill IN our community.
Bro. Newton was at his regular ap.
pointment last Sunday morning al

crowd. We noticed several peopl,

Brother Newton's sermon on Love
and if we all had this love in the
sense that Brother Newton put it be.
fore his audience last Sunday, this
would be indeed happy old worlC
to live in. If we people possessed
this love sufficiently we would neeC
no other law to rule us, as we woulC
be guided by love in all we say anc
do, All of those who stayed away OF
account of the bad weather sure missed
a rare treat and we would advise all
to come out and hear this good mar
preach.
Mr.. Editor, we noticed m the last
Dispatch about our offer of an Ag.
rieulture High School and we coulc
hardly wait for the time to come
around for our regular time to write
as we wanted to say something in
favor of this worthy subject. We
hardly know what to say or do as We

Mississippi Surely God has put il
in the mind of this good man to dc
something worth while for our PEG.
pie, and for one cannot see how
we can afford to turn deaf ear tc
this beautiful gift. Rural Hill wanted
this school, but we are not able to dc
