have fallen in love with it. SO I
am going to try to write you let
ter, to see if you will print it in your
paper.
Dunlap's school will be taught by
Rev. Galley and Miss Sibble Horton
this term and all prophesy a good
school, as both are experienced
teachers and have spent most of
their past lives in the school room
and are amply prepared for the
work. The patrons feel they are
lucky in securing these teachers, as
good teachers are hard to find in
the rural schools.
It is predicted by the people of
the 18th district that in the near fu-
ture there will be a consolidated
school somewhere in the district, and
why wouldn't Dunlap's be a nice
place? We would be satisfied to
consolidate with any or all of the
schools in this district. We are able
to pay for our own school buildings
in this district. So let's get togeth-
er and have a county college for the
boys and girls and put it at conven-
lent place so they can get to and
from school in any kind of weather.
Two of the soldier boys, Mr.. Os-
car Stafford and Mr.. Dennis Boaz,
who fought in the World war and
helped guard our freedom, are now
by the help of Miss Mamie Tansil, in
the hospital being treated for tu-
berculosis and no doubt will be
transferred to regular tuberculosis
hospital.
Some time ago the people in this
neighbcrhood and across Bear
crrek agreed to connect the road
known as the lower Greenfield and
Mckenzie road with the Harris
mill road. This makes it very con-
venient for the people Of the 18th
district to go to Dresden.
Mr.. and Mrs, Roger Sanders are

Mrs. Oscar Todd has been suffer
ing with congestion the past week,
1t has been said that you viii
find the best crops in the 18th dis
trict that can be found in Weakley
county.
Mrs. Raleigh Perry has suffered
for about six weeks with catarrh Of
the hand, complicated with blood
poison. 1t was thought for while
that she would lose her arm, but
we are proud to say she is rapidly
improving, and can use her hard
some.
DR.. T. z. Elinor sold Mr.. Clark
six acres of hay fer $125, thinking
he was getting a good price. M. v.
Clark saved the hay and it is esti-
mated at $500 worth. EIinor says
he finds he doesn't know much
about the farm, but he don't
want to sell any more hay in the
field. He may know something
about medicine, but he don't know
much about hay.
Saturday during an electric
storm, while Charley and Brooks

mated that the cost Of this dinner

districts wealthiest families Mr.
Holt announced that so years from
last Saturday he would give another
