Thu C'Inh Itarbfcnc,
A number of citizens from the town
and vicinity clubbed to-gether last
week, and Thursday, assembled in a
grove on the farm of Mr. T. it. Tal
mage about two miles from the city
to enjoy a barbecue dinner. Several
pigs were roasted over the pits to ac¬
commodate the crowd and the roast¬
ing was excellently done.
About two o’clock p. m. when all
appetites present had reached the
hungry point the barbecue was carv¬
ed and dinner announced ready; and
upon the statement of our informant
we are authorized to say that full
justice was done by each one present
in storing away a full share of the
roasted meats.
Save the slight interference caused
by tiie light sprinkles of rain that fell
during the day, the occasion passed
off very pleasantly to all present. It
proved, as was intended/to be simp¬
ly a social club dinner. The “slight”
evidence of masculine selfishness
brought out at this barbecue was the
conspicuous absence of woman with¬
out whose presence every pleasure is
more or less marred. For men, total¬
ly-bereft of the refining influence of
the gentler sex inevitably tend to go
astray.
What Shall the C hange He?
Tn some sections of our county the
question of changing the law for re¬
vising the jury box is being agitated.
What change is desired by those dis¬
cussing the question we are not in¬
formed. But from four years’ expe¬
rience on the board of jury commis¬
sioners we are satisfied that six com¬
missioners can not completely law. carry
out the intent of the To do this
the board should be enlarged and
composed of men who know those
subject to jury oth/r duty in the various
districts. In words to make the
board of jury commissioners complete
and competent, to carry out fully the
intent of the law, it should be com¬
posed of one member from each mili¬
tia district, as in this way the board
could be fairly informed of the capac¬
ity and qualifications of every man
subject to jury duty in the county,
and would therefore be able to select
those designated in the statute.
And to increase tbv board thus, need
not increase, buu could be made to
diminish the cost of revision by
shortening the time for doing the
work.
A change in the law to this extent,
we are sure, would work out better
results and would incur no additional
expense to the people.
A Public Park,
There is some talk among our citi¬
zens of a public park for Forsyth. If
our town need anything in the way
of a pleasure resort it is a nice, beau¬
tiful park. Are there suitable grounds
and locations in or near the city for
that purpose? Certainly, there are a
number of them. And we are infor¬
med that the grounds can be easily
obtained. Then can we have the
park? Of course we can if the peo
P le of th e town 90 will it.
The iniatioiy step towards securing
a park is a fixed purpose in the minds
of the citizens of the town to have it.
The consequent steps to making a
park a living reality in our midst i:s
Hie payment of some money and
much earnest, persistent, constant
work. If we wi) 1 do these things we
will soon have a beautiful, attractive
park that will he a pleasant resort for
our citizens.
Now, the miser may ask, is there
an Y profit in it? And if so, we an
swer, there may be none to him, but
t° those who would contribute to
sources that make life pleasant there

J. P. Anderson, at 8 o’clock tliiseven
ing to whicli everybody is cordially
invited. Mr. Anderson comes to

I . "--.
i Messrs. Brumblett & Bro. erected
! an . uvnlne in front of their two stores
last week, which makes a continuous
shade in front ot the stores on that
side of tlie public square. We can¬
not say that the numerous awnings
in front of the stores add to the beau¬
ty of the square, but they make quite
comfortable resting places in the heat
of the day for those who have leisure
hours to spend.
A gentleman, a few days ago, giving
another direction relative to the road
to success in this life, said that it led
through three hundred days’ close
and constant work in attending to
one’s own business, each year, and
we don’t think he made much mis¬
take in markingout the road. He that
travels life’s road in this way will
very soon learn-the real worth of time,
a lesson which many have never
learned.
The pea crop is not only a valuable ,
but a crop that can be raised, if plant¬
ed, with the corn. Thus planted it
requires no extra work to cultivate
them, and yet many of our farmers evi¬
pay no attention to this crop, as
denced by their present scarcity and
the price they are commanding. Now
while giving the corn the second
plowing is the time to plant peas.
The pea is food for both man and'
beast.
The-funeral service of 5Irs. W. B.
Amos at the Baptist church on Tues¬
day last was attended by a lage con¬
esteem course of in people which evidencing the deceased the high
was
held among us. The funeral sermon
was preached by I)r. I. B. Branham,
of Atlanta, and was' touching and
most appropriate, followed by a few
remarks of glowing tribute from Prof,
li. T. Asbury who had known her
from girlhood.
The public commons west of the
cemetery, which will be put upon the
market for sale soon, would make a
splendid city park. Indeed two acres
off of the south-west corner of the
commons would make a beautiful
park, provided the city were author¬
ized to purchase and beautify those
grounds. Nor would it require a
very We know great expenditure* to do this.
of no grounds in the corpo¬
rate limits of the city more suitable
and appropriate for such purpose.
There was a large crowd of colored
people in attendance upon their {.'great Sun¬
day School picnic, Friday, and
many of them were from the country,
notwithstanding it was an exceeding¬
ly busy time with the farmers. Edi¬
delivered tor Block, of the Central City Times,
the regular address and we
learn it was full of good advice to
those whom he addressed. He advis¬
ed his race to cultivate their physical
powers, their minds and morals, to
work faithfully and diligently, and to
husband, and not squander their earn¬
ings.
A good variety shop fitted up for
the manufacture of various articles
and implements of daily use in and
about every home would be a paying
institution for our town. Such arti¬
cles and implements are being bought
all over the world every day, and
why can they not be manufactured
as cheaply right here in Forsyth as at
any other point? If a little money
and a good stock of energy, enterprise
and push were put into such an in¬
stitution here, its results would in
short time astonish our people, and
the wonder would be, that it had not
been projected long ago. The time
has come when our people should
not only produce, but should manu¬
facture more of their necessities

The entertainment of the Zeta So¬
ciety at the Female College, Friday
night was fairly attended. The pro¬
gramme was short and gweet, consis¬
ting of songs, music, and recitations.
Each participant in the exercises act¬
ed well her part, and that part of the
entertainment passed off very pleas¬
antly. At the conclusion of that part
of the programme, Prof. Freddy, the
ventriloquist las, Texas, and magician, of Dal¬
entertained the audience
for a short time with a few of his feats.
At that point began the feasting
upon the ice cream, cake and straw¬
berries which the Zeta’s had prepar¬
ed for the occasion, and pleasure and
social enjoyment reigned for a time.
Six different stands had been neat¬
ly arranged for dealing out the cream
and the supreintendents of these
seemed to vie with each other in the
sale of that luxury. When the festi¬
val was over and the footings were
had, the treasurer reported a good
sum added to the Zeta’s treasury
fund. Those society entertainments
at the college are very pleasant, rec¬
reating occasions.
