For just one yeer and nine
mouths 1 have owned and edit-
mi our little paper Tits Aoki.
New*. ) loved my work and
my pa|»er but from a physical
standpoint the work was too
hard f« r me and 1 have eold all
but my influence (that I freely
give) to Mr. A. A. Webb.
My friends, you have been
kind to me—I cannot tell you
how much I appreciate it.—*
Without yoer support and
friendship, the werk would have
)>«cn an entire failure. A* it
was, with my entire self in the
work, with your co-operation
my paper was never what 1
wanted it to be. Still 1 know' 1
did my best,
To my journalistic friends I
am under many obligations; to
Mr. Herring specially. He has
been a most staunch and helpful
friend. 1 wish I could repay
your kindness measure for meas-
tire.
Now I ask your continued pat-
ronage and support in behalf of
Mr. Webb. 1 really want you
to do more for him.—lie is more
able to meet the demand* of the
town and section, Hally to
your home paper. It ia the pro¬
tege of the town . Personal
pride demands its support.
Barely home interests should be
first. Make your paper just
What Adel need*—A mirror of
liar industries and enterprise*.
Again that.king you for your
kindness and courtesy, 1 say
good-by. Tlie retired
Lady Editor,
Orer.tiug,
With this issue (allow us the
Usual journalistic license of us¬
ing the plural pronoun for the
singular) we assume the man-
ageuient of The A owl Nkws
which, since the first of last year
has been edited and published
by the gifted and beloved
Miss Maggie Tennant. Miss
Maggie has labored earnestly
ami faithfully for the upbuild¬
ing of Thr NkwS, and met with
• good measure of success. The
change is a purely business ons,
the main reason being that the
physical strain was too great for
her to meet the increased de-
inands of the office. We gladly
give apace for statement from her
in regard to the change and ful¬
ly app.eciat* the kind words and
good wishes for the present man-
agmnent, and only hope to make
her friends our own.

The A i»ki. N »wb wa* cstabl ished
about twelve years ago and has
had a rather checkered career,
undergoing many change* of
management, ownership and
mbchAtiical make-up. About
ten years ago the writer made
bis first visit to Adel which wa*
then enjoying a great building
boom and an era of prosperity
which ill a few years gave way
to the pressure of a great panic
aud lapsed into a state of coma.
Our first year’s work here whs
as a teacher at the Adel Institute
commencing with the first ses¬
sion held in thepresent building.
Our work and associates from
the first ware pleasant and at¬
tachments were soon formed
which are yet binding. In fact,
we soon beeline wedded to the
wire-grass section iu general,
nud tooiieof Adel’s most noble
young ladies in particular and
since then w« have been flesh
and blood of this section and
more especially Adel and Ber¬
rien county.
We have obse» ved the course
of our town through ihe varying
and trying vicissitudes of a de¬
cade, and during a part of the
time we labored wilh and for
Ths Adw. Nkws and obtained
e^parieac* which will lie of some
help in our present effort. We
have watched Adel gradually
emerge from a stale of lethargy
and have beheld handsome brick
blocks quickly arise from hot
tsh beds, have have seen the old
pass and the new
now we are liy*
’and
ik* progressive and
conaei vative, with whom »nd
for w ln m we nave the moat en-
during confidence and esteem.
PSOflPBCnVK.
With continued unanimity of
purpose and carefully laid pinna,
ths futuie of Adel i* assured.
With Ibis iltue we drift into the
currant and without disparaging
any past effort* of the publishers
of Tnx Nkws, we propoas to
make the effort of our life to
improve our town paper and
keep fully abreast with the lead¬
er* of the procession. To do
thia, ’Ww mutt have the moral and
materiel support of the town
and community. Along the
lines of development we will
lend our energie* to home inter-
e*te first, and other things will
follow in the order of impor¬
tance and proximity.
Pounce.
We have oeen taught from
early childhood that the hopes
and interest* of the Southern
people were inseparably linked
to democracy and we are not yet
ready to renounce the faith once
delivered to the saint*. Our
efforts along this line will bo to
perpetuate the teachings of Jef¬
ferson and the other greet lead¬
ers and founders of our party.
It will be our happy purpose to
loyally support the regularly
nominated candidate* of the
democratic party, national, stat*
atu l county,
Final.
If Wd can improve and build up
a creditable paper along these
lines, and in so doing have the
goqd will and support of the ma¬
jority of the white people of this
section, we will fetd that our ef¬
forts will not have been in vain,
and will lie fully compensated
for any efforts put forth.

ATTENTION PATRONS.
Our school tips the beam this week
lit 80 pupils. You have rallied to n*
with your patronage and wo now ask
for your encouragement aud sympa¬
thy. The success of the school de¬
mands it. When yon talk school,
speak of it as “Our School.” Do not
think Hint yon shifted tho burden
from your shoulders when yon enter¬
ed your children and promised to pay
for their tuition. The traiuiug aud
future weliarc of thesi children is a
mighty bunion, and rests equally upon
your shoulders aud our*. We realise
this responsibility. We would uot
evadeit- With might and maiu we are
bonding every effort to meet it by con¬
scientious work. We are endeavoring
to train morally ns well as mentally.
We realise that the eternal welfare of
your children demands that they form
now, right ideals, right ambitious,
right conceptions of dnty. But this
doe* not relieve rou. The school-room
is our forum. Our work, to bo suc¬
cessful, must be co-operative with
yours. Too many people send their
children to school to get rid of them,
To you, as to us, every bright childish
face is a foreshadowing of future weal
or woe. During school your childrens’
interest is our interest. Is it any less
yours? Do all you can at home to
stimulate them in their work. Advise
with and help them. If there is any
thing you dou’t understand, do not
condemn or criticise iu their presence,
but consult with us. Many a breach
hasariscu between parent and teach¬
er through a misunderstanding. We
are each your friend and helper; your
oo-workers iu the business of direct iug
young lives for time aud eternity.
Our methods are doubtless new to
some. Do not condemn before yon
understand. We are cudenvoring to
develop in a systematic way the men¬
tal and moral well-being of our pnpils,
We do not always hear a recitation by
asking printed questions or receiving
stereotyped answers. We believe the
proper way to develop minds ia to stirn-
uloto P U P»1* to think for themselves,
and our class work is directed to this
purpose. We appeal to the self-res¬
pect aud pride of our pnpils. We be¬
lieve that iu the mind and heart of ev-
ery boy aud girl there i* the genn of
future uoble manhood aud womanhood,
it is to thin future, bright with
promise aud glowing with possibilities,
that we point them. Have you done
a* much? Are you doing as much?
Last, but uot least, come to aec us,
your presence help# and encourage* the
children. We endeavor to tench them
that the school-room ia a home, and not
a prison. It is indeed a work shop,—
but it is your work-shop.
The teacher is only your authorised
agent- All hi* training aud skill
will be futile without your support
aud iuflueuoe. Grant us this, aud iu
return we give our deepest study, our
unceasing aud most consecrated labors
to the ujiliftiug, mentally aud morally,
of your children aud your community.
Your# in the cause,
