BUDGET OF FUN. HUMOROUS SKETCHES FROM VARIOUS SOURCES. Misunderstood—A Faithful FVI"-j< 'PCSI 16 Basis ot a Kcput<RjK*DAY, and amterluifftaVl at Spring Place As., as teeend class matter. A Suggestion, For the Couelderatiun ol the Sub-Allian¬ ces of Murray County. While casting around and thinking abont matter* and things porta mug to the good of th® A1 lianco in our county, it occurred to “yonrt* truly” to Mrite a me tb|ug like the following: In order to stimulate and atxu-.e renewed energy and interest in Alliance work 1 move— (if I can get a sec oud) that arrangements be made, by mutual consent, of each sub alliance in the county, to have the meetings of the county alliance held with the sub-alliancos, iu rotation, tho same to go into effect at »s early a day as can be satis factorial ly arranged, Let the first such meeting be held with May Hill Alliance, and wo will have Bro H C Brown pres¬ ent to make a big speech, aj he has already agreed to come on ton or twelve days notice. Let there be ample provisions for a basket dinner, and let every body be invited to bring well liiled baskets and to listen* at and enjoy the speaking as well as help eat and erjoy the dinner. But latthe’work of the business session be .as usual—in secret. Thus variety will obtain, and the people generally will likely be¬ come more} interested as well as give new impetus to the order. I notice that other county Allian¬ ces porsue tho course above out linediand mako it quite successful as well as interesting. Why not Murray do the same? Thus dele¬ gates and their horscB will not have to do without! dinner until they get home at night, we iry and liun gry. Since jirepuring the above, I iiave received and read the Tocooa News, which contains the following, which, to my mind, is worthy imitation; "The members of the Mud Creek alliance entertained tho delegates in a royal manner; hos¬ pitably receiving them into their homes at night and provi ling a most bonnteouB basket dinner at tho place where the meeting was held. Tho fair hands of the ladies furnished choice beef, delicious 1mm, delicate fowl, rich biscuits, oake, pies, and custards ot various kinds in g eat. abundance, and the way thoso delegates devoured the delicious viands was a sight to be¬ hold, and was a tribule to the cn linary skill of tho wives and dangh ters of the farmers cf' Mud Crei k, ot which tneir husbands, fathers, brotheis and sweethearts maj well be proud.” Now, who wiil second the ruo tioi ? The motion being seconded, and stated by the chair, debating is in order. Are you ready for the question? I am inobt sincerely venrs truly, B. F.
