Killarney, Ga., March 2S, ’O3 Editor Early County News : Cotton planting is the order of the day in South Early. Mr. A. S. Collins attended the city court of Blakely last week. Miss Coral Hammack visited home folks at Blakely Saturday and Sunday. We are glad to note that Ida Mc- Mullen, who has been very sick, is rapidly improving. Maj. T. F. Jones, our efficient school commissioner, accompanied by Mr. J. B. Mosely visited our school at Springfield last Thursday afternoon. He reports the schools of the county in a thriving condi tion. The cemetery at Springfield has been enclosed by a nice wire fence, which adds greatly to its appear ance. Now let’s build a new church. It erm easily be done if our people will only make up their minds to do it. That fellow in Fort Gaines who was caught making whiskey in the rear of his store must believe in developing home industries. To say the least of it he got to be mighty careless with his plant When Fort Gaines can’t find a whiskey “still,” you may call a Kentuckian a coward. Mr. Editor, keep talking about that proposed railroad between Blakely and Jakin. It would be a great convenience for the people of this section of the country. If we had the railroad Bill Snipes could carry his “brown jug” to Blakely instead of Donalsonville, to have it filled with the Simon pure. See! It will soon be time for the pub lic schools of the county to close. Parents, have you been sending your children to school regularly for the last six months? If not, why not? Ask yourselves the question and see if you have a rea sonable excuse for not sending them. It means something to the child. The day will soon come, yes, too soon, when his school days will be over. He goes out into the unfriendly world, unprepared mentally to fight successfully the battles of life. He feels cramped as he meets his superiors in intel lect. Parents, who are to blame for this state of affairs? You can’t say that you are not able to send your child to school, for the state of Georgia pays his tuition and builds his school house. God in his infinite wisdom has given your child a mind, a conscience and a soul. It is just as essential to cul tivate these faculties as it is to feed and clothe the physical man. Carolus. Hilton Dots. Hilton, Ga., Mar. 31, 1903. Editor Early County News: Mr. A. F. Sessions is in our vil lage today. Mr. W. A. Smith, of Rock Hill, was in town today. ' Mr. George Tyson went, up to Blakely several days last week. I guess Sunday was too rough for the baked potato to come out. Messrs. VVess George, Hubb and Parker Weaver were in our village Saturday afternoon. The writer, in company with her sister, visited Miss Early William son Saturday afternoon. This is surely a beautiful morn ing on Easter Lily. Guess she is looking fine this morning. Misses Maude Hamil and Mattie Legere, in company JTith Mr. Dal lie Smith, were in otn - burg Friday atternoon. Mr. A. F. Sessions and his charming daughter, Miss Alice, pissed througn our burg Friday atternoon. I wonder what has become of “U Know Me.” The big rain Sat urday night and Sunday must have overflown him. Messrs. Wess George and John Cute Weaver, of Sowhatchee, were in Hilton yesterday afternoon get ting up a load of chickens. The young people of this place have all taken the blues, because they have to work all the week and it rains all day on Sunday. The entertainment at Mr. T. H. Grayson’s was a failure last Satur day night on account of the bad weather, and it will be tried over again next Saturday night. Every body come. We are sorry the rain prevented Rev. J. E. Dykes from preaching to his friends Sunday last. Hope he will have the opportunity of de livering the word of God to the Hilton Baptist church before a great while. There are so many marriages until it is causing bad weather ; so I think the young people had bet ter hold up a while; long enough for the farmers to get through planting. It is only a short while until every one will be done plant $1 A YEAR. ing, and then you may go your route for a short while. The Quarterly conference will be held at the M. E. church at Hilton on the third Sunday in April, 18th and 19th of April. Every body invited to attend. We will do our best in welcoming you all, and surely hope that a single person can’t go home and say that they haven’t enjoyed the day. Lady Slipper.
