THIS IS TO YOU.
If you owe us anything on
subscription we call your atten
tion to the fact that v ( , it
Newspapers cannot pay their
bills with promises, and they
have expenses to meet just the
same as other business. Your
promise to pay next week will
not help us—send or bring it
NOW. To those who have paid
we are thankful and we feel as
sured that this notice will be all
at this necessary to the others.
So In re. Very likely the ene who is
now reading these lines ewes Tiie
Anuus something and we need it
badly. Come in and and settle.
THE ALLIANCE.
The thing for the sub-alliances to
do now is build themselves up,
Let every brother who loves the
the cause get some delinquent
brother to go to the lodge and rein
state himself. Why not; our princi
ples are the same they ever were and
the most disinterested will own that
they are good. We dont care for
the*littJe flings that have been made
against us by the loving brethren,
the rank and file of the order is
withusfand we will abide the motto :
“In things essential, unity, and
in all things charity/' The Bible
teaches that if we have no charity
we are nothing, not the fellow you
a'e mad with, if you no char
ity you are nothing your sweet self.
In a financial point of view if you
have only three bales of cotton to
weigh it will pay you to be alliatice-
man, for it will more than pay 3’our
dues.
‘‘Buffd up” is the watch word.
Let the .Batts county alliance be a
soverign at home on its own floor,
subject to the dictates of no boss so
as to shut out all demagogues,, and
if a man in the order tried to build
1 himself politically st the expense
•f the organization turn him oat,
and thus defeat every scoundrel in
his sneaking desires, cousing the
demons of purgatory to weep in
sack,•■cloth and ashes, and like the
trogan- horac trot their own defeat
If we wish to hold a convention and.
ic-operate with other counties in
State or in the United States we can
do so by delegates as in an advis
ary meeting. Let us continue to
work for the masses in a strickly
\non partisan 8| irit.
\
FGjrn the Hampton Hustler we

tary notice of Coi. Frank Curry who

THE TACKY PARTY.
Written Up In Tacky Style By One
Of The Tacks.
Mister Taylor Butlrili’s 'gMs give a big
party las *S f addy nite and all the gals and
boys in this settlement cot a invite.
1 tell you it wus a mighty nice shindig
and we’uns danced till most Auuday.
You ought to have seed how fine everbody
waro drest. Thar wair moor silk dresses
and ribbins than you ever hearn tell of,
and curls, why Harriet Matilda 2?uttiill’s
hair looked like it had been wropped a
week. Sum 'own gals was thar too but
they couldenl near dance he .Buzzard lope
like Mame and Elia. All the gals did
look so sweet and rosy and most all of
em had sticks of of candy what was give
to cm on the way by their fellers, and
evrey time the doorbell would ring we
gals would fly to the door and see who
could be the fus one to tell the feller what
come howdy.
Some of them boys did look monstrous
fin. J/ister Jonathan Lyons, and them
two school teachers, they was dressed the
handsomest j r ou ever is saw. John had
on a yaller and greau suit ar.d wore a big
dimond and that Mister Kelly looked
prettier than usual. The other teacher
man had on a collar so high that you
couldn’t see nothing of him but collar,
so he looked rale well.
Them town gals, Miss Miriam and Miss
Eilny, liad on red and blue sating waistes
and looked rale pretty, and they could cut
ibe Short Dog very well but as I said befo
when it come to Buzzard Lope, they were
nowhar !
Lime-by Mr. Ben Diliard, be come and
all of us gals flew so the door to admire
him. He did look so sweet and the gals
like to have et him up. I think be was kiud
er sketred they would but after while they
bad something better to eat. The supper
bell rung and you never seed such a scam
per for the dining room. And thar on the
able was the prettiest red apples, and
grate big to fit everybody’s
mouth, and lots of buttermilk, and they
had lemonade too, and persimmons and
red stripcd-stick-store-bought-candy, and
a -round the room w r as the most punkins
and kershaw r s. We all et till we couldn’t
eat no more, and still there -was some lef
for nex time. Bime-by somebody played
Run Nigger Run and Alabama Gals wont
You Came Aud Nile and eveiybody
danced till thay couldn’t shake their feet
no more. Aots of folks come in to see
the dancing, and Mister Jo Wright, he
was thar, and Mrs. Watson, she was thar
and Mrs. Wagnir, she was thar and Aheap
of others. i?ime-by one of the boys said
his ma told him not to stay no later than
ten o’clock so the froliek broke up after
much kissing (dun by the gals).

WINTER READING.
How to Spend your Eveaing? Pleas
antly and Profitibly.
The winter evenings are here, and
iadoor occupation have become a
necesssty. Outdoor enjoyments
frvored by the long summer even
ings are droppped for the season
and the delights ot leading will in a
large measure take their place
What finer occupation ior the long
winter evenings that are at hawd?
The intellectual world is constantly
expanding in numerous directions,
and no one is so well fitted to take
n the enjoyments which life affords
as the man or woman who has a
good subjects. Social intercourse is
often ‘‘flat, stale and unprofitable''
for the lack of this important re
quVit ot intellectual injoyment.
Ideas must be scare when knowl
edge is limited.
How best to untilize the opportu
nities that winter affords lor pro
moting intellectual growth and cul
ture is an important question. An
excellent way is to lay out a comse
"of reading and follow it systematic
atically. For general utility there
no better readi*g than history,
biography and travel, with a little
standard fiction thiown in. For
special purposes scientific woiks
should take, and where literary cul
ture is special desired the best auth
ors in leading Hues of thought are
to be prefered. But whatever style
ot reading is decided upon there
should be steady adherence to the
plain outlined. By following this
course surprising progress will be
made in mastering any subfect,
A halt hour given every eyening
will carry one through the 1 mgest
histories easily and with great profit.
Read in this way all the leading
histories in the world will become
familiar in a few winters. History
is an unfailing source of suggestive
thought, and richly repays the
reader for the time expended upon
it. Biography reveals the secret
springs ol history and the livos in
teresting chasacters. It.is a side
light oftentimes more intereting
than history itself. Books ot travel
are essential to a correct knowl
edge, to the discoveries of explor
ers as well as the condition and
characters at the present day of
well known countries.
A WORD TO OUR PATRONS.
Several of our patrons have al
lowed their children to stop school
witlnn the last week or two simnly
because the children have grown
a little tired and want to rest. Pa
)
rents, this is injustice to the ttacli
ers aho hove Doored so faiihf illy
wiih them. The true teacher feel?
deeply the seeming ingratitude of
children and parents which i* dis
played by such action. You do your
children a gross injustice to let
them leave school at the very time
when they ought to be able to do
the very best work the school term.
None but those who have been
in the teacher's place can appreciate
what a loss of time, interest, patient
work, and valuable attainments art
incuried by children leaving sc boo.
two or three weeks before the close
of the term. But please take our
word for it, you can hardly do your
child a more serious injustice than
to allow such practice.
There are only two weeks till the
fall term closes. These we want to
bo the hist of the term. Wt want
to do more work and better work
than in any two weeks previous be
cause vve have the advantage of all
the preparation we have aiaoe for
it within the past three months. If
your child is not there we can do
him no good and the golden mo
ments and opportunities are uniuQ'
proved. Why will you let your
child squander his time and grow
up in idleness and ignorance on the
plea that he needs a little rest. He
dont need it. Men work from Mon
doy morn till Saturday night in
their stores and on the farm and iu
the shop. Boys do the same from
the beginning of the vear till the
last day oftheyearto make money.
Why is it that they cant study twen
ty days in the month for ten months
ot the year tc get something that is
far above the price of gold.
Some men may grow careless
towards the end of a term and lag
in their work and teach children by
tbeir example that the last week or
two of school dont amount to much
but when we can Ftifie our con
science so as not to b i sensible ol
our duty to our pupils, our patrons,
our town and community, and to
God, then and not till then, will we
teach such enormous ideas. But
before we ever trample our trust
under foot in such disgraceful wa)
we shall give it back to the trustees
and let them find more worthy men
lo carry on the work.
If you want to do the very best
thing for your child, encourage him
to be prompt in attendance till the
last day, Dont only encourage
him but make him go if necessary.
God holds you accountable for the
way you bring up your childien
and you cannot escape the penalty
if you allow them to grow up in ig
dorance and idleness,
