CHRISTMAS GREETING.

CHRISTMAS GREETING.
This is our Christmas number.
The Eagle greets you this week
with messages of love and good cheer,
and best wishes for merry Christ
mas and a sane Christmas.
The good Lord has been wonder
fully good to US poor people during
these trying days of oppression and
unrest. He has furnished us with
most desirable weather, saving mil
hons of dollars which would have
been spent for coal and fuel had the
weather been cold, like we do have
some winters.
Then, we can rejoice and be glad
that we have been spared to enjoy
the festivities of another university
of our Saviour.
Then, let US rejoice and be glad.
This issue of the Eagle should be
read carefully by every man, woman
and child in the county. The matter
was carefully selected and the illus
trations are from the best artists of
our land. The front page cut, the
"Three Wise Men" is the production
of Mr.. George Hansen, one of the
best artists in New York, and was
drawn specially for the New York
Herald and Oxford Eagle.
This splendid number was made pos
sible by the public spirited merchants
of Oxford, who have so literally pat
ronized this issue Of the paper. Their
advertisements deserve the careful
consideration of every reader. Leu's
keep our money at home by patronfz-
ing home merchants. When you send
money away to buy goods, that money
is gone forever, but when you spend
1t with the home merchant, a part Of
1t at least will remain in Oxford. and
at the same time you help your home
merchant who helps to keep up the
streets, churches, schools, roads of the
county and all these things. The mail
order houses don't help us one penny
year.
Readers, remember these words: Ler
US rejoice and be glad; let us patron
lie nome in every way we can-help
one another, and we will be glad for it.
Read every advertisement in this num-
per OF the Eagle, and go to these
merchants to buy ALL your Christ
mas They are honest people, they
stand behind their goods and guaran-
tee them as represented.
NOW, just word for ourselves
we are at the close of another wear.
1he future holds out brighter pros
poets for US Lafayette county people
than ever before. Oil wells will he
put down and the chances are that Oil
IN great quantities will be spoutino
from our hill sides before many
months. You and your relatives will
