Stephens High School Notes,
Since th-“ Winter days have gone” and
spring has begun to smile on us again,
we of Stephens High School are studying
better notwithstanding the old proverb
that “spring weal her gets into the bones
and mas os,a person lazy".
But as the time draws near for our
school to close, our hearts are made glad
rtt th, ‘ tho, “< l ' t of 'W'k flown . the .. hard . ,
and tedious duties of a pupil for a while;
but there is a little pain down deep in the ,
soul that gpaws reslstlessly at the bottom
of our hearts when we t^iink of parting
with one another and our beloved teachers
and of laying down the pursuit of so grand
and pr* cions a thing as knowledge for so
long a time.
Prof. Kilpatrick lias been visiting our
school this week.
Our teachers gave us holiday Memorial
day and we all attended the exercises and
every thing passed oft successlully. We
are always glad to decorate the soldiers
graves.
Both teachers and pupils of Stephens
High School regret very much • to learn
that Mattie Tucker has stopped school.
But a little while morn and commence¬
ment will be here and wo are all striving
now to do moie than we have ever before.
Every thing at school is working smooth¬
ly and the result cannot be any thing bnt
success.

MISSIONS DEPARTMENT.
BY W. M. S.
In anti Out of a I’ickle.
I once read a story which ran on this
wise. Let me flrst state, that aunt Ful¬
ly lived with her brother-in-law. The
small plantation on which they' resided was
the property of aunt Folly and her sister,
which fact entitled aunt Polly to her
board. She had loanwd her brother-in
law a hundred or two dollars. The in
terest of which, very p oorlydressed her.
Aunt Polly went to a missionary meeting,
not expecting to contribute much towards
auv object, as she had but little money,
and no income above meager support.
When slm got to the meeting she found,
that a church out West had no house,in
which to worship. Some sister in a touch¬
ing manner presented I lie needs of the
church. Aunt Polly out of the goodness
of her heart subscribed ten dollars, to be
paid the next fall.
As she walked home she soliloquized
thus: “now I’m in a pickle, as usual—no
money, and I don’t.know how in the the
world I’m to get it. I believe I will ask
brother Tom forthe interest on the money
1 loaned him, «iut will do without my
new dress.” Accordingly at the oinner
table, aunt. Polly veutured lo ask brother
Tom for the money. lie gruffly replied,
“That will lie a nice lime to call on a
fellow for money; besides 1 wanted to
do some building, which I cannot do, if 1
pay you that interest.,” Her sister adding,
“I think you might—be satisfied w<th a
good support." Aunt Polly went to her
room, and continued to study over the
state of affairs, blie could see no way
ov>< of
herself, this is the worst pi* kV • ’ Vf '
baen in, for a big time- Still ruminating
her eyes happened to full on a package
of cucumber seed—there she exclaimed,
“1 have it now; 1 will raise cucumbers,
and sell them, and make pickle, and sell
them also.” She acted accordingly.
When fall came, aud the money was due
she went to the missionary meeting with
a light heart and a heavy purso. She
had in her purse ten dollars, which she
bail realized from the sale of cucumbers,
and pickle. See how aunt Polly trot in a
pickle, and out of n pickle. We need
tear, the Lord always helps his children
out of pickles, wlien they get in them for
his sake.
We are happy to state, that one of the
members of our Society has displayed as
much ingenuity as aunt Polly; in the pre
ceding article, YVe must heartily coin
mend her example, not only to the mem
!,ers of our Society, but U*ali the sisters
of our church, At the beginner,g of this
year, wo decided to do ail could towards

greater blessings from David. We hope
In like manner, diet act of our is I era will
prove such a blossii g, that Jii will roach
further, and further, until every sister
will devise a plan by w hich she can make
some money for the on h ins. Others
may have acted similar to our -Utci; if so
the fact has not yet reached our ear-. As
Abigail prayed for David, so we pray for
