FAMILY REUNION.
On tho Oth of Soptomnor Mrs. R. i
R. McCullough luul tho pleasure!
of a, family reunion at the home of
her danght 'r, Mrs. John Tyler. |
It was a pleasure to see the child-;
ren and grandchildren meet, the!
mother at this annual reunion.
A portion of the time was spent
in devotional exercises. There,
were some expressions made by j
the mother to her children, and by
the children to their mother that
will he cherished, by thorn while'
they live.
After the service the table was
spread in tho beautiful grove and
it is useless to try to ti l! the varie
ty of g-totl things that were pre
pared and joyfully partaken of by
all present. Then after an hour's
rest the parting song was sung,
led by \V. L. McCullough, son of
the aged mother.
At last all left for their homes
hoping to have a reunion in the
great beyond, where there will he
no more separation,

On Sept. 22, the birthday of Sis
ter J.M. Patterson, the same be
ing too birthday of Bro. P. W. Al
len, and as their custom had been
for several years to meet at one or
the other of their homes and eat a
birth da v- dinner together, this be
ing the time to meet at the home
of Bro. Patterson, quite a number
of their friends and relatives were
present.
We were providentially hindered
Yrom being with them, but learn
that they had a most enlovable oc
casion. A portion of the time was
spent in offering thanks to the Giv
er of all good for His providential
care through another year.
Sept. 23 a large crowd of friends
and relatives, reaching near the
hundred murk, gutheiod at the
home of Bro. A. S. McGurrity, in
their family reunion, and to eat a
birthday dinner with his compan
ion.
They live at the old homestead
and it was a pleasure to see these
children meet with their children
and friends and enjoy the greet
ings of each other.
Around this home was a part of
our tramping grounds when V hoy.
Everything for this occasion had
been put in fine shape. A table
sixty feet long was built under rhe
beautiful shade trees, and at the
proper time the good sisters of t Ik*
home and the many friends h gun
to spread on the tablp the well
prepared variety of good things to
eat for this birthday dinner. Af
ter dinner we repaired to the
house and listened to some good
songs led hv I. P. Rosser, T. J.
Upchurch and brothers.
Then began the offering of
thanks for past blessings and ask
ing that they be extended.
One of the oldest relatives of
this family was present, Uncle Al
len Stuart. He made a very im
pressive talk to these relatives,
especially to the young people.
There was great joy in many of
the hearts of the kindred and
friends. Then the snaking of
hands and the good-byes came
with the hope that this family
i might have another reunion some
lime where mav it be.
J '
Get. Mrs. Jackson and myself
j received a message inviting us to a
1 family reunion and birthday din
| ner with Bro. Willie Tingle at his
! home near Philippi church.
*
We were there on time. The
j children were all present except
Mrs. Lilia Tingle, who was sick
and could not come. It was a
pleasure to these parents to have
the children come to the old home
arid bring the grand children, who
numbered twenty-six, and they
had a jolly time.
Before we could begin to be im
patient about eating another birth
day dinner, we saw the lengthy
table filled, and there not being
room, had to add to its length to
hold what had been prepared for
this occasion.
It goes without saying there was j
plenty and to spare. In the after
noon wo had some good songs led
by Bro. H. W. Crnmbley. Then
there was pleasure in offering of |
thanks to the Lord for His bless-1
ing upon this family. May tfiev ■.
ha ve a reunion one day where
they shall never be separated from
each other.
The time had come for ns to
leave for our.homo when to add to
our pleasure, the father and moth
er and all the children contributed
of t heir means to us a sufficiency
to buy one hundred pounds of
flour $3 ; sugar $2 ; coftVu $2 ; i)|ce
$1 ; three gallons syrup §1.50; live
pounds cheese $1; and then §1.25
left that I may help others.
A man would be in a had fix to
get all that he can of this world's
goods and keep all that he gets.
Quite a number of my friends
around Sharon church, and especi
ally Mr. Hump Stroud, will under
stand me when I say the old gray
is doing well.
Wlnle we have so munx pleas
ures, let ns do the best we can in
doing the most good we can.

UNION GRADED SCHOOL.
Onr school has opened with 90
pupils in this first month.
Work is well organized, with
Miss Custellow as first assistant,
and a very interesting and profit
able year’s work iff forecasted. We
urge all the patrons to help us
with their full support and patron
age soon as possible.
It is certainly a great drawback
to children to lose the first three
months.
All who have entered school
should be as punctual as possible.
All children who are absent one
day lose two days. They lose the
day after absence by gathering up
their books, finding their lessons,
and regaining attention.
Next Friday week is visitors’
day and we earnestly invite al 1
patrons to be present and bring
dinners and stay all day witn us.
The building committee com
posed of Messrs. Rogers, Hopkins,
Raul, CrJiig and Culpepper, have
put the material on the grounds
for the residence on the school
grounds. They will put up a neat
four room cottage of modern pat
tern.
We do not believe that any citi
zen in this community will shirk
his duty and allow our zealous
building committee to suffer any
financial losses from their responsi
ble position.
It is our duty as soliciting com
mittee to stand by them till every
dollar of the obligation is denied
up.
