Prof. Pound to Lecture.
The citizens of Douglas will have a
rare treat on the 14th, inst., in the
visit and lecture of Prof. Pound of
Way cross.
Hie professor enjoys an enviable
reputation, not only as a teacher of
tact, skill and ability, but as a most
engaging and interesting speaker also,
and Prof. Overman may well esteem
himself fortunate in inducing him to
come.
Let everybody turn out and give the
distinguished educator a royal wel
come. Those who attend the lecture
will certainly wish to hear him again,
He has done and is still doing a great
work in Waycross, and doubtless will
tell us how it may be done here.
Our school is grooving in numbers
and influence. Our teachers are show
ing an enterprising, wide-awake spirit,
not only in the work of the school
room proper, but in their effort as well
to secure for the instruction and en
tertainment of the people so excellent
a treat as the 14th promises to be.
Tii: Printing Office Towel.
When I think of the towel, the old
fashioned towel, that used to hang up
by the piintinghouse door, I think that
nobody in these days of shoddy can
hammer iron to wear as it work. The
tramp, who abused it, the deyil, who
used it, the make-up and foreman, the
editor (poor man), each rubbed some
grime off while they put a heap on. In,
over and under, twas blacker than thun
der, ’twas harder than poverty, rougher
than sin; from the roller suspended, it
was never bended, and it flapped on the
wall like a banner of tin. Itgrew thick
er and rougher, and harder and tougher
and daily put on an inkier hue, until
one windy morning, without any warn
ing, it fell to the floor and was broken
in two.—Burdette.
