TO AN ORANGE TREE
(Rosnlyn Prater, Miami, Fla.)
Those beautiful blossoms so sweet
and divine
How lovely you look to me,
Those great beautiful giants are no
one’s but mine;
Oh, the orange tree.
The soft, green, grass beneath your
feet,
The leaves that nestle in the breeze
The birds that came admire the fruit
Of the beautiful orange trees.
How bright the blossoms cluster to
gether,
Waiting or the busy bee,
How slow they bend in the bright,
sunny weather;
On the slender orange tree.
Peeps of green beneath the orange,
Makes a rainbow, like the sea
But the prettiest colors are orange
amd green
Of the orange tree.
Those 'beautiful blossoms so sweet
and divine,
How lovely you look to me
Those great beautiful giants are no
ones’ but mine,
To an orange tree.

number considering our usual atten

weather it will have to be admitted
that this is good for a day like Sun
day was. Everything was coated
with ice and those who came slid to
Sunday school. We might take a few
lessons from Mr. Bill Roberson on
sliding when you can’t walk. It
h i 1 ru: ac ident, either. He came
to a rather dangerous place for walk
ing so he took it sitting.
Due to the inclemency of the
weather there was little or no visiting
during the week end consequently
there is little news from Taylor Mill.

Do not fail to v.ote for bonds for
the new courthouse Saturday.
If you are a registered voter and do

reason, if you favor the bond’issue of
$20,000, on the basis of which we are
assured of being able to secure gov
ernment appropriation of three times
that amount thereby the realization
of an $80,0(H) building at a cost to

20 years in which to meet the pay
ment. What more could be asked ?
The need of a new courthouse has

Anybody displeased with the way
Governor Talmadge breaks out oc
casionally, will be comforted to read
some of the things told on Governor
Edringhaus of North Carolina. The
Times at Asheville says the governor
had a number of citizens arrested on
New Year’s day because they did not
have 1934 tags, although New Year’s
day was a legal holiday. It was Mon
day, and the day before was of course
Sunday and tags were not available.
Yet the governor is quoted as declar
ing as criminals people who did not
have the new tags, and they were ar
rested as such. Tags up there, by the
way, cost $4. The governor of North
Carolina announces that fewer deaths
must occur this year from automobile
accidents on the hnighways, for which
statement his other offenses may be
forgiven. Drunk drivers will be the
object of his special attention.

The Quitman Free Press makes a
speech for the benefit of all publishers
calling attention to the postal regula
tions and overdue newspaper > sub
scriptions. One is the enforcement of
the postal laws and regulations which
require all subscriptions to be stopped
on expiration. Newspapers, like peo
ple, dislike to disappoint a friend and
in the past, when a subscriber got
behind in his payments,the paper con
tinued to send to bridge over the hard
times. Now, the government steps in
and settles the matter. 1 It is against
the postal law for a newspaper to be
mailed to a subscriber after the sub
scription has expired and nobody can
get mad with the newspaper. ;
