News from Claud.
BY GABRIEL.
. Our farmers have begun to harvest
their grain, and some of them have
finished chopping cotton. The rain
and hail on Saturday finished chop-
ping the cotton of those who had
not completed, that work.
Messrs. R. R. Smith and R. C*
Ault man have the finest com in this
community, and Mr. R. W. Hartley
has the best wheat around here.
A good many our our farmers set
out their pototoes last week.
Mr. R. R. Smith says he will be
eating potatoes about the middle of
June. I guess he was talking about
Irish potatoes.
Mr. J. W. Tabor says he Will have
the first watermelon in our town.
Mr. J. A. Arnold has been faring
well for the past two weeks—riding
his baby up and down the road in
a little wagon.
Will Tabor of Macon visited home
folks, and another, last Friday. A
marriage is talked about.
J. S. Tabor and wife of Taborton
w‘ere with-home folks here from last
Thursday to Saturday evening.
Two Hollinshead young men were
in our village a week or two ago
after chill tonic for their brother,
who was very ill, they said. I
don’t think he has improved any yet.
Mr. C. M. Hartley was in Fort
Valley last week on business.
• Dr. White of Macon was unable
to come down aud deliver his ad
dress to the pupils and patrons of
take View academy last Thursday
night. We hope, however, that he
will be able to give us a lecture in
the near future.
A good many young people of
Claud attended the picnic at Union
Academy last Saturday. In the af
ternoon Hon. Joe Hall of Macon de
livered a speech, which was appre
ciated very much by all.
Mr. R. W. Hartley has lost his
dog, and all of his kittens but one
have died.
Miss Laura Davidson and sister,
two charming young ladies of Hat
tie, yitited their sister, Mrs. J. T.
Hancock, last Friday.
Miss Minnie Reynolds and Mrs.
Mattie Rape were in our village last
Friday evening.
.Our school has closed, but we
hope to - meet Prof. Stripling 4 and
Miss Reynolds as our teachers again.
The Fort Valley Courier is the
newest candidate for public favor.
The first issue was published at Fort
Valley last Friday, by The Courier
Publishing Co., with Mr. Emmett
Houser as editor and manager. The
paper is a six-column folio, and the
make-up shows, the handiwork of an
experienced printer. Editor Houser
is well qualified by experience and
native talent for the work he has
undertaken, and we cordially wel
come him into the journalistic field.
It is pleasing to note that the Cou
rier and the Leader do not each re
gard the other as a rival, but as a
co-worker. May they dwell togeth
er in harmony, and each earn and
receive a full measure of profit.
It ii said the crude product of
the new oil wells in Texas will be
extensively used as fuel. Of the sit
uation the chief geologist of the U.
S. geological survey says, in part:
“The importance of this oil field is
greater than at present can be des
cribed or estimated. It means not
only a cheap fuel supply to the larg
est state area in the Union, but ow
ing to its proximity to tidewater, it
promises an export trade such as ex
ists nowhere else in the world. Prep
arations are being made to sink hun
dreds of wells and very soon the
present output of 500,000 barrels a
day may be quadrupled.
It is said the railroad being built
to Hawkinsville by a firm of lumber
men will be sold when completed,
and that the Central Railroad,
through the mightsyille & Ten-
affle, has an option on it. With
that trade completed, the logical ex-
tension of the road would be from
Hawkinsville to Fort Valley, via
Grovania and Perry. Houston peo
ple Will give all the aid practicable
to such extension. ,

be formally opened with appropriate
ceremonies nex-t Monday, Jime M*

A Birthday Dinner.
At the beautifully decorated home
of Mr. and Mrs. J. A Middlebrooks
quite a large crowd gathered on
Sunday, May 19 th, to enjoy a birth
day dinner, given in honor of their
son, Asa, it being his 21st birthday.
All present enjoyed a very nice time,
and say they wish Asa could recall
one or two years, so he would be 21
again.
The crowd left the house in the
morning, and enjoyed a very effect
ive sermon preached by Mr. Clem-
ans, pastor of Byron Baptist church.
After preaching they returned home,
and engaged in enjoyable conversa
tion until the hour of dinner time
drew near, when Miss Ollie Middle-
brooks invited aU out to dinner, to
which all responded promptly. The
table was beautifully deco.ated with
pretty flowers, plucked by the ten
der mercies of all present for the oc
casion upon which they were used.
Not only flowers were there, but one
of the finest trimmed tables, patient
ly waiting for the guests to come in
and indulge in the useful folly.
In the afternoon, while all were
m the elegantly furnished parlor,
Mr. Willie Williams gave an exhibi
tion of his joyful laugh, which was
a concert to some, especially those
who had never heard it before. The
entire afternoon was one of the hap
piest of their lives.
Those present, as they went to
dinner, were: Miss Lillie Rushing
and Mr. Asa Middlebrooks, Miss
Daisy Rushing and Mr. Eldridge
Ingram, Miss Bessie Cline and Mr.
Burke Williams, Miss Ollie Middle
brooks and Dr. G. P. Cline, Miss
Carrie Middlebrooks and Mr. Alva
Lowe, Miss Allie Frank Middle
brooks and Mr. Buford C. Rushing.
As all left they expressed them
selves as having had a fine time, and
congratulated Mrs. Middlebrooks on
her excellent taste and cordial hos
pitality.
