There is one attempt in which failure Is unforgivable—the attempt to be funny. A man only asserts he hits done his best when he feels he might have done better. Self-mastery always must lie at the beginning and not at the end of the life of service. The world is famishing more for spiritual sympathy and care than fo~ food. How often when a heart-broken mother would comfort and console a ruined and lost daughter, she is con fronted with a cry of aJiguish from her lovc<l one, "Your love and desire to help me, mother, has come too late.’* Strange, yet true, the less a large majority of people know of anything the more eager are they to give themselves an airing in public to show off their silly ignorance. The box supper at Sowhatchee school house last Friday night was a great success. The neat little sum of $44.05 was realized. The great est sensation and most exciting pull was the huge cake by Mrs. J. G. Chambers, to be auctioned off to the prettiest girl. Misses Jewel Still, of Sowhatchee, and Jewel Widner, of Liberty Hill, were the acknowledged girl leaders in the commencement. A short, but briefly contested effort was made by both sides, which re sulted in an even game. 810 votes each for the two young ladies. The amount, received for this cake was $16.20. The auctioneer for the oc casion was Mr. J. €. English, of Liberty Hill, one who doesn’t carry the word "fail” in his vocabulary. This was not only a box supper, but a program in songs and recitations tor Thanksgiving day was beaut it al ly carried out. Then the stage was a most delightful fair scene. Many products grown at Sowhatchee were on exhibition, all nicely arranged, in which the children were much inter ested. Mrs. Leo and Miss Morgan had only three days in which to get ready, with no lessons lost, until Friday afternoon. These ladies wish to thank those who so faithful ly supported their efforts for the occasion. Mrs. Hoyl Fleming, of Blakely, is teaching in the primary department at Sowhatchee during the illness of Miss Hay. Mrs. Fleming is not a stranger to us, and tits in the school work as would a veteran. 6 6 6 is a prescription for Cods. Grippe. Dengue, Headaches, Con stipation. Biliousness. It is the most speedy remedy we know. 10-16-lSt SHERIFF TAX SALE.
