By The Judge.
Having a little personal experi
ence as pupil, patron and teacher, I
can heartily endorse Prof. Driskell
as he expresses himself in the Jour
nal. When I was a boy the teach
er’s rule was law, and a bay or girl
never got too large to obey. them.
But that was under the knock-down
and drag-out system, but it laid the
foundation for some of the brightest
intellects Georgia has ever produced.
Every patron of a school in Houston
county ought to have a copy of
Prof. Driskell’s article and refer to
it often.
Farmers are down in the mouth,
August having played havoc with
the cotton crop. The best cotton in
this section will not make over
three-fourths of a crop, while much
will not make two-thirds.
Taylor Jarrett, a colored tenant of
Mr. W. A. Woodard, was bitten by
a moccasin last Saturday, and was
in a very critical condition for sev
eral hours. He was picking cotton
and thought the pricking of his
hand was by cotton bolls until he
jerked up his hand with a snake
hanging to it.

A Sunday School Tribute.
Whereas, on the 16 th of August,
1902, Harry Holtzclaw was sudden
ly called from the midst of earthly
friends and kindred to his home
above, and,
Whereas, the circumstances of his
death were attended with peculiar
sorrow and sadness to all that knew
him, more especially to associates,
friends and loved ones; and,
Whereas, his endowments of mind
and heart gave promise of a useful
and noble life, his removal for that
reason being more painfully felt,
Resolved 1st, That by his death
this community has lost a noble,
manly youth, whose life promised
much of good to himself and others.
Resolved 2nd, That the Perry
Baptist Sunday school, of which he
was a member, has lost a bright, ge
nial, faithful attendant.
Resolved 3rd, That his Sunday
school teacher and classmates have
by his death lost an apt scholar, a
lovable companion, and a dear, true
friend.
Resolved 4th, That we extend to
his grief-stricken parents, sister and
brothers our sincerest sympathies,
assuring them that in our hearts is
an aching void also.
Resolved 6th, That a copy of these
resolutions be given to his family,
and one to The Home Journal for
publication.

GREAT FENCE SETTING.
A Mile a Day of Woven Wire Fencing
Nothing Unusual.
A mile of good fencing put up by
three men in a day seems like a fore
runner of the farmer’s millennium,
yet this is being done right here in
oiir own state every day with the
Ellwood Steel Wire Fence. Of
course this refers to putting up the
fence after the posts are set, and it
is an illustration of the convenience
of the ready woven wire fences
which have gained such popularity
in the last two or three years.
After the posts are Bet the roll of
fencing, containing 10 or 20 rods, is
unrolled and the fence lies flat on
the ground with its bottom against
the posts. One end of the roll is
stapled to the end or starting post,
the Woven Fence stretcher is ap
plied to the other end of the roll
and by working the stretcher the en
tire length of fencing is quickly, ea
sily and properly drawn into place
along the posts ready for stapling.
The stretcher makes all taut at ope
operation, and staples are then driv
en home on each post.
