We agree with the Oglethorpe Echo when it says: “We are against poli cal rings and cliques wherever they be; and we shall always bo found waring against them, though we may some times meet defeat.

This refused to do, stating that an officer lead his men wherever duty them. Next morning, at the of his company lie entered the and about noon a bullet from tho enemy hit him in the heart, killing almost instantly.

Failing to find him, she went around the house.and looked for him, and then went to one of her neighbors to inquire if they had seen her husband.

Don Give it _. Up. T t # Lite is a hard , b^ the cm and they la e their tbarni which tile open air gives them. So with* our lives. We cannot bear too many strains, it handicaps our ener gies and gives us a feeling of lassitude. Be bold, earnest, hopeful—fearless in doing the right, Tho weakness of man shows itself iu giving away to dis ip pointent, Do not ilo that. Live for something higher, nobler than lagging by the wayside. Tears never won a victory; if you weep, let it bo for joy when you have won the fight. There is no trial too great for human endurance. God has made man so high, so strong, so perfect, that his strength is as terrible as tho whirl¬ wind. Keep yoursef high and strong and perfect; live ever on the buoyant things of life; look disappointment in the face and smile. Life, is *o sweet to be fretted away over the embers of despair.
