We are glad to report the holidays
were quiet. No disorder and the peo-
pie acted like civilized folks. There
are only few over our country who
think you must have a jug of whis-
key to celebrate Christmas and they
are fast disappearing. Give us pro-
hibiti0n now and forever.
A young man, Clifton Dimon, of
Chattanooga, who was visiting R.
Harper's family, was accidentally
shot while out hunting last Wednes-
day. He was standing on log with
the gun sitting on the log beside him.
It slipped off the log, striking the
hammer, causing the gun to fire. He
received slight flesh wound in his
left arm. The flesh was torn just
below the elbow. A doctor dressed
the wound and young Dimon is do
ing fine. He returned to his home
in Chattanooga Saturday.
There will be a farmers meeting
at Midway schoolhouse Tuesday night
Jan. Is. Bob Vansant, the county
demonstrator, will be on hand. All
are invited.
Alva Kemp has gone to Florida on
visit.
Pink Nelson and family have
moved to Florida.
Miss Mae Ward, of the G. N. & I.
College, Of Milledgeville, Ga, spent
Christmas at home.
John Mayes and family, of Griffin,
Ga, spent last Friday with relatives
here.
Mrs. Gertrude Landrum visited rel
atives in Atlanta last week
A number of friends were invited
to the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Bur-
Lawrence Sunday, Dec. %, to attend
the marriage of their daughter, Miss
Ava Lawrence, to james Camp, OF
Marietta. To the surprise of the
crowd, they produced a copy of the
license, showing they we're secretly
married Nov. A, 1928. All their
friends join in hearty congratulations
for long and happy life.
We would not attempt to tell all
the things we saw and heard during
Christmas but will tell you some first
that unusual warm weather brought
out many signs of spring. We saw
grass-hoppers flying; saw butterfly,
a patch of rye headed out, also oats
headed, different kind of seeds sprOut-
ed and up, morning glories, sun flow
ers, voluntary Irish potatoes two
inches high; saw the blue birds chat
tering around an old hollow peach
tree, preparing to build nest; hens
cackling; saw two lovers counting. l
could give their names but would
make them blush.
Now here is a few things we
heard: truthful citizen said he saw
a snake Christmas; bull frog jump
off the creek bank; saw flying ants
swarming out of the old trees; saw
plenty of low cut shoes, but no straw
hats.
Editors Note-Allen, if you ever
bring US down little nip of your
community stock, please don't bring
that Christmas brand. w. L. H.
How about this for Christmas? But
don't forget the winter winds will
play a mournful tune around the cor
ners. The trees will crack with ice,
the hills and hollows will be wrapped
with a blanket of snow before real
spring s ushered in to stay.
a fine young lady came to the
nome Of Mr. and Mrs. Sam Scott for
Christmas present and Sam wears
smiling face.
Now is the time to begin to smile,
smile, smile, and smile some more in
1874. Allen.

That swells our hearts with pain,
But sure our loss sufficient
For her eternal gain.
But when our mortal bodies fail
And we enter the shadow of death,
May guardian angels meet US there
To breathe in us immortal breath.

To meet our loved ones there
And be with them forever

of enabling unified control of the

Mrs. Wilson determined upon her ac-
tion. One publisher, whose output
runs into millions of copies, made
over a whole number of his publica-

tion until her attorney called her at

The large publisher heretofore re-
forred to acceded readily to Mrs. Will
sons request that he recall publica-
tion of various of Mr.. Wilson's let
ters, which had been widely adver-

what way publication of the late
Presidents letters and papers shall
be made, it is Mrs. Wilson's inten-
