Cotton is opening fast now. Every dog is a lion at home. That is gold that is worth gold. A sin confessed is half forgiven. Every fool wants to give advice. There is no love without jealousy. All are not saints who go to church. Hatred renewed is worse than at first. Hear the other side, and believe little. The feast passes and the fool re¬ mains. There's no worse joke than a true one. Never do evil thatgood may come of it. What the eye sees not the heart rues not. Strong lye will clean tainted pork barrels. Lip courtesy pleases much and costs little.

The following ministers were ^ osellt : P ' K Twitt V - Dr - J ’ °- A - - l Fentress Chas. Davis, ’ •' ' lamson, J. t. Owen, J. \\ . Jordan, Dr. Ogletree and the writer. The preaching was good to edifi- ca tion. The spirit bore the messages to the hearts of the hearers. May tho impressions made be followed up. Bood congregations attended upon each service. The tent holders did their part well. The singing was with the spirit and understanding. The general deportment on the ’ a8 far as 1 k was as ” ** appli- rhere twenty-one (21) .. were cants for church membership. The Camp meeting spirit is revived, g 0 tne parties propose to build new tents The c!loice lots being select¬ ed. Let those who would build tents not sleep . over their .... rights.

This explana¬ tion should be all that is necessary to encourage every body to attend. It was the pleasure of the Ed to attend last Friday evening and we realized that its object promised to be well carried out. It is indeed a source for the young and older peo¬ ple of our town to collect weekly and spend an hour or more in this manner. Take an interest young people you will enjoy it, aqd it will improve you. Old people and you will feel young again. Our Acade¬ my needs financial aid and let every body help for this purpose if nothing else. The September number of I)em- orest’s Magazine is replete with in¬ teresting and instructive reading. Among the articles worthy of note are “Thirty Years in Journalism,” by Jenny June; “The War of the Hum Power on the People,” by \Y. Jennings Demurest; “Four Friends in a Phaeton;” “Madame La Fay¬ ette: Her Hero Husband and Her Home;” and “A Night Refuge in Paris.” livs. Hurt’s serial increases ni interest, and “The World’s Pro¬ gress” is highly suggestive. The other features of this popular Mag¬ azine entitle it to welcome in every household. The frontispiece is a beautiful oil , picture . of . charming . : | a child.
