Pat goes a-hunting.
An Irishman, who wasn’t much of
& hunter, went out to hunt one day,
and the first thing he saw to shoot at
was a blue jao sitting saucily on the
top of a fence. He blazed away at
the bird, and then walked over to
pick it up. What he happened td
find there was a dead frog which he
raised carefully at arm’s length, look
ing carefully it it with a puzzled air.
Finally he remarked:
“Well begobs, but ye was a devil
of a folno lookin’ bird, befur Oi blew
ther fithe's off o’ yerse.”

The Rock Hill school children spent
Saturday afternoon pleasantly at the

searching for Easter eggs. The eggs
were hidden in the pretty grove by
Mrs. White and Miss Nelson. While
the eggs were being hid the children
were on the branch gathering flowers.
When they came back they rushed
to the grove eagerly to see who could
find the largest number of eggs. Liz

prize. The prize given was a large

The Oyster.
When an oyster has its shell closed it
is alive. Trained "sliuekers” say it is
not difficult to open the shell of an
oyster when you know how and that
they can open from thirty to thirty-six
in a minute. It is said that oysters In
season may be eaten at all hours of
either day or night without causing
the least symptom of indigestion.
When served raw the small varieties
are considered best.

“Beginning Mev the lothfour new
rural routes will he put in the coun
ty. Two more will go from Jack*
son, another from Jenkiosburg and
another from Fb'villa, malar.g
twelve ioiili. This gives the countv
a fine system of rural routes, and
will be the means of making farm
ing lands more valuable and coun
try life much more desirable. The '
establishment, of this system is doe
more to tlm direct efforts of.l. K.
Carmicha* 1 than nr.y other one
citizen of the county. He has been
working quietly at the matter
through Congressman Bartlett for
more than t o . e rs.”
While the abbvj appears in our con
temporary, the Aigus. yet we are in
no doubt about it having come from
the pen of one of J. it. Carmichael’s
Funky Fridays, and not from the pen
of the Editress. Therefore what we
have to say, is. by no means, intend
ed for her. We know Johnie is very
philanthropic (?) Yes, greatly con
dderate of others and that he readily
up his money for the advance
ment of his fellows we f are, but.n Ftl
kv Friday, your boss Johnie, did not
directly or indirectly, have anything
odo with the establishment of the
free rural delivery's ystemsin Butts
County or elsewhere,
your boss, Johnie, has worked all this
through Congressman Bartlett. Mr.
Bartlett has worked untiringly
aud unceasingly for nis constituents,
not only in Butts, but all over the
district he represents. I daresay no
Congressional,district in any state of
the Union has a better rural delivery
than the Sixth, and to Charlie Bart
lett the people are indebted and not
to your boss Johnie. my flunky Fri
day.
I can tell you what your boss has
done flunky Friday. He built a cheap
post office building and got it, ofT on
the Federal government for a term of
years at a handsome rental price.
Yes, flunky Friday, we know you
think your boss is IT, but we think
there are others. We are willing for
you to parade the good (?) deeds of
It was that matchless Tom Watson,
while in Congress, who introduced
the first measure on the subj ct and
from that small beginning has grown
the free rural delivery system all over
the Union. No I your boss did not
directly or indirectly bring free rural
delivery to Butts. Why flunky Fri
day, we would have had the system
if your bos# had never been born.
We wiil not allow it to go unnoticed
and uncontradicted when you say
your boss, but don’t take the work of
our Congressman’ our Charlie, and
give credit to your adorable Johnie.
Now, Johnie is a great (?) citizen. We
don’t see how the people could get a
long without him, but, my flunky
FViday, he is not entitled to one par
ticle if credit for the free rural mail
delivery in Butts. No, Friday not a
bit of it! I will admit that he is an
sdeptwhen it comes to getting his
$12000.00 mansion by the tax asses
sors for 86000.00, but the rural mail
delivery in Butts is the product of
Charlie Ba tlett working for eacii and
every’ constituent along the several
rout s in our county, and not to
Hunky Friday’s boss. ***
THE Wm MATRON
AND THE DOG.
The i-nost alarming thing we see as
we go hither and yonder is the large
number of young matrons and Miss
es who are fixing their affections on
the scavenger eating dogs.
We were on board a street car the
other day and found a beautiful lady,
elegantly and handsomely dressed,
and she had in her arms one of those
scavenger eating animals, and of all
the billing, cooing, spit swapirg and
tongue chewing we never had hoped
to see, nor hope to see again. The
little scavenger eating rascal would
run his tongue out and she would grab
it with her teeth and pull on it like it
was chewing gum.
This dog-tongue chewing fad, so far,
has not been taken up by the negro
matrons ami misses that we have ob
served, but we are hoping that tney
will “calch-on” and drive our Cau
cussion sisters from this sickening
waste of their affections. One of our
large cities in the East, has passed an
ordinance prohibiting this dog-spit
swapping process in public, and we
:hink Macon and Atlanta should fol
low aUU.
To see ft womar, God’s greatest gift
to man, with her mouth in the mouth
of a dog, or the dogs tongue in her
mouth, puts a man to wondering and
asking, what is the the trouble in
that woman's life? Is is possible that
t,ne worna:: we saw on board the Street
can't get a man to love her, or
that her affeitions are so low they
rise no higher than that dog? But love
is like the butterfily. Have you never
seen the butterfly, clothed and array.
