heard all the guests exclaim: "Oh,
what a beautiful pie!"
But the next thing he heard made
him tremble so he was sure the pie
must be shaking, for his father began
to sharpen the knife with which he
was to cut the wonderful pie.

heard his mother say, because the
crust must be cut right through and
not broken"
Tim began to tremble more, and
then his father put the knife on the
top crust and poor Tim could stand NO

Up he jumped, right through the top
crust, and frightened the guests al
most out of their Senses but he did
not frlghten his mother, for no sooner
had Tim showed his head than Mrs.
Squirrel grabbed him and out into the
kitchen she marched poor Tim, trem-

THE BRIDGE BUILDER

An old man, going a lone highway
Came at the evening, cold and gray
To chasm vast and deep and wide
Through which was floating sullen
tide,
The old man crossed in the twilight
dim,
The sullen stream had no fear for
him,
But he turned when safe on the
other side
And built bridge to span the tide.
"Old man." said a fellow pilgrim
near,
"You are wasting strength with
building here.
Your journey will end with the end
ing day;
You've passed the chasm deep and
wide.
Why bIild you the bridge at the
eventide?
The builder lifted his old gray head,
Good friend, in TIE path l have
come" he said,
"There followeth after me today
A youth whose feet must pass this
way,
This chasm that has been naught to
To that fair-haired youth may a
pitfall be:
He, too, must cross in the twilight
dim,
Good friend, am building the bridge
for him."

Teachers Institute;
Rally In Dresden

There will be teachers institute
and rally held in Dresden Saturday,
Sept. 3. This is to be one of the
most important meetings Of the
year for the schools in Weakley
county, and am going to insist
that every teacher who is teaching
or who expects to teach in the coun-
ty attend this meeting, since there
is some valuable information you
need to know and can get at this
meeting.
The success of our schools depends
on your coming to this meeting. The
new school laws, among many other
things, are to be discussed. One
new feature Of the law is that all
funds coming from the state is based
on the daily average attendance Of
the school boys and girls, of the
county.
We want to make this the best
school year that Weakley county has
ever known. And the only way this
can be done is by the teachers who
are to be the leaders in the school
affairs of the various school commu-
mites to be present and find out
what his or her duties are in this
great school program for the year.
We must work together and / need
your help.
I did not have a summer institute
and the law says you must attend
your county institute. This will be
the first day of our institute.
