Editor is it possible that Jack son’s Mayor must go around armed a3 he walks the streetsof your peace able and quiet little village?

An old farmer and his wife, noted for their niggardliness, had a custom of allowing the servant only one match to light, the fire with each morning. One morning the match failed to kin dle, so the servant went to their bed room door und asked for another one. A whispered consultation wus held between the two, then audibly tbe wife said: “Will yow risk her wi* anitber ane, Job nr “I doot we’ll bae tae risk her, Janet,” replied Jotou, "but be sure an’ seek a slcht o’ the ane she got last nkcbk’v- G-lasgow Times.

As was stated in last weeks Jack sonian the Normal Singing School will begin at Fellowship church, a bout seven miles west of Jackson on tL% 29th of July and continue for a term of twenty days, taught by Prof. Jacob T. Mavo of Jockson. Perhaps some would wish to know the branches of study and what is to be learned in this school. It has been intimated that this school is not for beginners, but for advanced students. Let this mistake be corrected. It is for all classes, for children and all others who have never studied at all, as well as for the advanced. Instructions will begin at the A B C of music, including a thorough and systematic course, acquainting pu pils with the theory and principals of notation, Major, Miner and Chromat ic scales, Keys, Intervals. Transposi tions, Moiulations etc., thus enab ling them to read music intelligently. There will be lessons daily in Tech nical Voice Culture, Harmony and Composition, Sight Singing, Ear Training, Conducting etc. Every one who desires a greater fun I of knowledge of music should attend this school. It is cheap, only $2.00 for the term, and board can be hart in good homes for about SIO.OO per month. The writer has had the pleasure of attending several sessions of “Mayo’s School of Music,” and this being the sixth session for this community since 1902 is an evidence of the fact that he is giving satisfaction. A large enthusiastic cluss is expected, and we urge every one who can to meet us at Fellowship on the morn ing of July 29th. For further particnlars address Fred Peak, Griffiin, Ga.-, R. F. D, No. 1.
