Notes From Flint Hill.
We <*• one this time to say fare¬
well. We have tried to get our
share of ili; benefits from this
psge.
Our sch<>ol which has been in
sessh,n since last fall, will close
next Ei id ay May, 17th.
This has been the most success¬
ful year that we have had in many
yea rs.
While we are not many in num¬
ber, as may tie found elsewhere,
but we have all that’s in our terri¬
tory and they are regular in their
iitteinience. Our school is the
priile of itie community and every
body pulls for Flint Hill.
Our present teachers have been
with us four years and the whole,
peoph* join in the effort to keep
them.
We carry on the entire common
school course of study and do
High School work too, this keeps
us busy, and we enjoy it.
Did you ever wonder where
Flint Hill received its name?
Then wonder no longer, because
the thousands of rocks here nat¬
urally suggested the name. But
it is the prettiest hill you ever
«aw, and it you don’t believe that
the most att ractive school grounds
in ail Georgia are right here in
your home county, then drive
out to see us and be convinced.
For more than fifty years men
and women have decreed that an
“apron string” must have been
broken there that its contents
might, come in contact with the
heels and toes of school boys and
girls, but today they stand and
look with admiration as they see
that the other end—a master
mind—has been dealing with these
stones instead of heels and toes.
This teaches us that often-times
what seems useless and unsightly
around us, need only to be
handled in the right manner to lie
made useful aud attractive.
We trust that the editor will
give us a page next year so we
may continue to read the different
letters.
Liberty School.
Our school closed Friday last.
We feel we have done a very good
year’s work in our studies as well
as in house and grounds.
Our average was very good all
the time. We feel that our teach¬
ers did their dutyin every respect.
We appreciate tli 3 care and inter¬
est they taken in their school and
the patience they had with the
children.
We truly hope all the children
will study all the spare time

through the summer. Why what
if we do have to work, we can
grasp the knowledge the quicker
when we get the time to study.
Do i.ot throw your books aside un¬
til next term. What if it is hard
to work with your hands and
brains too. Nothing worth any¬
thing was ever accomplished by
anything but hard work.
I for one aim to study all I can
and I hope eveay other girl or boy
will do the same.
“Knowledge to be a good thing
must be rightly applied.” So let
us get knowledge and apply it
right.
Perserverance is one thing need¬
ed badly in our lives. Whenever
you fail in your attempts to do
anything good let your motto be
“try, try ogam.” Where there is
a will there is a way and if auv one
wills and his will is strong enough
he can get an education for where
there is a will the word f-a-i -1 is
not known.
Other pHopie have accomplished
great things, “why with patience,
should not you?”
There is one thing we missed
very much this year and that is
the county oratorical, but we don’t
know what will become of them,
taking our C. S. C. Prof. G. 0.
Adams, away from us, while we
are glad foi Prof. Adams to be a
real president, we don’t like to do
without him. The oratorical af¬
fords pleasure as wel as they are a
great benefit to all the school chil¬
dren. We truly hope our next. C.
3. C., will arunge for an oratorical.
Well, I guess we will all “do
our best and leave the rest and it
will come right some day or
night.”

* THE r TERPRISE, COVINGTON GA
The Enterprise Seeks a
Favor From its Friends.
“This is funnv world and has
lots of funny folks in it,” said
Mr. Dill.
\ We desire to get everything of a
^ oca ^ at, d 8 °cial interebt t > publish
in the Enterprise. We have even
employed chroniclers u hunt up
the news, but they soon tire and
leave us where we were in the be¬
ginning.
Now, we are going to ask a per¬
sonal tavor of everyone who reads
this. Whenever you take a trip
or have an acquaintance visiting
you, or entertain, or know of any
improvements that would be of in¬
terest to our readers— anything, in
fact, except politics—just so its
news, phone the office or jot
down on a piece of paper aud send
to ns, or hand to a representative
of the paper. Our appreciation
shall be shown in the bright local
paper which will great you every
week. It is utterly impossible for
us to know all news items, unless
our friends inform us; and this
we hope you will do, for the favor
will not only be appreciated, but
reciprocated whenever an opportu¬
nity is offered.
Take a personal interest in your
town paper and put forth your best
efforts to make it a true represen¬
tative of our intelligent and hos¬
pitable people as well as our beau¬
tiful little city. If you’re a true
citizen you want to help yrur
town ; so when you help the Eti
terpise you help Covington and in¬
directly help yourself, for we are
all equeally interested in our town
and county.
Readers, help us make a greater
aud better Enterprise! Hope that
a newsier paper will brighten fu¬
ture’s way, and when, if possible,
we mount the top of the ladder and
number the Enterprise with the
bright particular stars of Georgia
newspaperdom, that a happy and
everlasting memory will gild a past
thorny at times but rosy and sweet
at others.

Sf w
Cause of Suicide.
The Charity Organization So
XU.S’IXX'XX New
Yorkers commit suicide. At first
the investigators thought it was I
to poverty, bet after five
months spent in collecting statis
tics, the report shows that not
one effectual or would-be suicide
had ever applied for charity, and
that in the great majority of cases
«t love aud whisky” were the most
potent causes. “The great major¬
ity of the sufferers were from the
self-supporting classes.” More
than two thousand years ago the
wise Roman noticed that t » it is
not granted to any person to be at
the same time in love and in his
right mind.” And it seems a fair
inference that mental disturbance
is harder for the human animal to
endure than physical suffering.
Whisky, of course, produces
mental disturbance, and now it
appears that love is as dangerous.
