We call George Rucker’s attention to the following
paragraph tHken from tile Vienna News, Miss Emily
Woodward's paper:
“It is gardening time. Nearly every one has a hob
by, amt those who haven’t should acquire one. There
is no better one to be had than gardening. It brings
forth fruit of various kinds, not the least valuable of
which is the benefit that comes from the exercise in
the operation.”

Epworth League Social
Valentine day was enjoyed hy the
Methodist Young People with a Social
given to the League and its friends.
The social was held Monday night at
the church parlors, and an interesting
program appropriate to Valentine day
was rendered under the direction fif
Miss Montine Hobinson, Supt. of Social
department. The games were entered
into with great enthusiasm and the
program ended with a general ‘‘sing
song" of old favorite and new.
An elaborate collation was served at
tin* cl use consisting of chicken salad,
mince meat patties and hot punch, with
mints. Ttiis department was in the ca
pable hands of Miss Dorothy Howland,
assisted hy Miss Edna Ttlancks and Miss
Fiosaie Ilenson. The invitation com
mittee for the evening was Sara Joe
Roberts and Harold Starr, and many
others of the Leaguers gave time and
talent to the preparation of this enjoy
able evening. Thirteen new member*
for the society were enrolled.
Valentines
The rose is red and the violet blue, this Valentine is
meant for you. The February days are classy, our
good resolves are not yet brassy. The rose is red.
th - lilly white, some couples fall in love at sight; to
bring some others into line requires a saint like Val
entine and not another month I wot a siffy saint like
him has got. The second month with him alone can
well for lack of length atone. This is the month when
lovers kiss and lie a little too I win; for each will
swear, then swear some more, that neither ever loved
before. The rose is red the chestnut green, they
spring some chestnuts too I ween. But though their
vow.- be trite and old no whiter lies are ever told, for
site tells him and he tells her not what they are hut
wish they were. So let them wander hand in hand
and heart to heart in fairyland. I too will rise and
thumb my lyre, I too will share their youthful fire.
Yea though my bald dome shinny is and though you
creak with reumatiz the rose is red the violet blue,
love still has sweets for me and you.
—BOB ADAMS.
O
Hits Commerce
Below are two side swipes that Rush Burton turn
ed loose on Commerce last week. Will Paul Harber
and John Shannon please explain.
“Shannon says that when church members of Com
merce quit buying liquor the boot-leggers will have
to go out of business."
“Two horses sold for a dollar over at Commerce
last week. Horses are a slow go in Commerce. Trot
out a bird dog if you want to see Commerce people
bid her up stout.”
O
The weather played a trick on us Wednesday night.
This makes it hard on the weather man.
Editor Townsend and
Our Office Devil.
Our almanac says it will rain today
and tomorrow' and then turn cold. —
Dahlonegu Nugget.
This is the same day we planted our
lieans and Irish potatoes.
When ye (alitor sleeps in his breech
es it is a sure sign of cold weather. —
Dahlonega Nugget.
If Townsend does nothing worse in
his breeches on a cold night than sleep
in them we guess he’s excusable.
It is devilish strange to us that a
few men in Dahlonega “keeping” two
or three women, are always talking
about other persons violating the laws
of a much less nature. It makes us
tired. —Dahlonega Nugget.
And it fatigues us, also, Isro. Town
send.
Uncle A1 Roberts, who was recently
bitten on the hand by a mad dog, has
received the proper treatment and
seems to lx* getting along all right.—
Dahlonega Nugget.
Wliat we would like to know is the
“proper treatment” the same for a mad
dog bite as a snake bite.
Townsend Don’t Roost on a Limb.
The editor of the Nugget goes to roost
generally with the chickens (don’t
mean the lie climbs up on a limit, or
goes into the hen house) but retires
about Hit' time they do. Yet he beats
them up of mornings by two or three
hours. —Dahlonega Nugget.
Then what kind of chickens do you
mean?
The Tryst.
Tl*o party who it was claimed brought
liquor here in bottles fastened to a
licit like cartridges to a hunters, worn
around the waist, though beneath the
top garment, informed us the other
day that she was innocent of the charge
and had also notified City Marshal
Hensley the same, telling him if he did
not believe it for him to meet her at
the oak tree in the old Muster Ground
in the edge of town beyond Mrs. F. G.
Jones’ store, and search her. Many
people are charged with things they
are innocent of, and we sympathize
with the poor woman. If she went in
up to date style wearing a knee dress
with n short bosom, containing about
two and a half yards in the garment,
she couldn’t have hid a half pint bot
tle about the waist. Some people like
to talk about and criticize poor folks
anyway.—Dahlonega Nugget.
Better go easy, Marshal Housley.
MR. J. NY. NICHOOLS, WINDER
DISTRIBUTES HANDSOME
CALENDARS IN MONROE.
Mr. J. W. Nichols, general manager
of the Winder Marble and Granite Cos.,
was a visitor to the city a few days
ago and kindly complimented the News
office with one of the handsomest, and
most expensive calendars we have seen
this year—an unusually large one —
representing mother and child looking
out across the moonlit, sea. The paint
ing is in the most gorgeous colors and
the work of a real artist. We appre
ciated this gift no little and gave it a
conspicuous place on the wall of our
offioe.
Mr. Nichols while here also placed a
small, attractive announcement for The
News relative to his enterprise, the
largest thing of tffe kind in Northeast
Georgia. We would call attention of
News readers to this ad. and if any of
them having lost loved ones, are contem
|plating buying a monument. Nichols
Would Ik* a good man to see.—Walton
