Success for this move¬ ment would mean much for Toccoa from both the standpoint of educa¬ tion and entertainment. We learn that the negroes are firguring upon starting a paper in Toccoo to represent their race’s in¬ terests. This is a good scheme, and the colored people could not strike on to a better one for the ad¬ vancement of their gerenal interest. Our town ought to have some protection against fire. It does not take many big fires to cost enough to furnish protection. There are two classes of people in the world which are said to be specially under the care of Provi¬ dence. Unless we belong to one of these classes we ought to use the ordinary means of self preser¬ vation. On next Friday evening, April 26th, the surviving members of the lamented “Mendlesohn Club” assisted by other local talent, will give a concert for the benefit of a stage curtain for the new school auditorium. The program which will be published in next week’s paper, will consist of readings and vocal and instrumental solos,duets, quartetts. Aside from the fact that the program will furnish suf¬ ficient entertainment to repay one for going, the proceeds will go to a very worthy object, indeed, to one in which we are or should be all interested, so it is hoped that a lull house will greet the evening’s entertainers.
