Crops in this section will Booh be
housed and preparations begun for
the next crop. Syrup making is now
m session, and the farmers have be
gun making preparations for sowing
their grain. Some have already
sown. Some are yet holding cot
ton; possibly they are waiting for
s’x cents. We could personate one
in 1 mo16 °f U“ s section who refused
10£ or 11 cents iu 1900 and sold for
less than 8 cents,
Mr. A. J. Houser is making prep,
arations for the erection of a new
ginnery, which, when completed, will
have a capacity of fifty bales per
day. The public gins of this vicini
ty have been very badly crowded for
the past few seasons, and it is said
that one, if not more, will retire
from public service after the present
crop is finished; therefore the farm
ers will have cause to appreciate this
new ginnery.
Our community was well repre
sented at the circus at Fort Valley
last Wednesday; at least fifty at
tended.

e,rayeu3is l
This godly woman was born De
cember 15th, 1865, and took her de-
pai’ture from this life at he mother's
residence, 7 miles north-west of Per
ry, from the same room in which her
eyes first beheld the light of this
world.
She joined Providence Methodist
Church when a child, was ever de
voted to its irue interest, and lived a
blameless life. She was above fch^
.average woman in mind, heart and
life, shedding the brightness of suh-
shine o\er home and community.
Her devotion to mother, brothers
and sister was without limit,and her
kindliness and charity of heart to
her neighbors were true and pure.
Her loss to family, community
and church is sorely grievous. But
her time had come to depart aud
she was ready, and rejoiced v at the
approach of the angels who appear
ed to escort her home. May the
blessings of heaven rest on her aged
mother, so soon to follow.
Pastor.
Miss Allen had been in declining
health a year or more—afflicted with
consumption—and for several weeks
prior to her death she had beeu crit
ically ill. She died Friday, October
31st, and cn Saturday, November J,
the interment was in the cemetery
at Fort Valley.
During her last illness the atten
tion of neighbors and friends was
constant and kind, and at the burial
the large attendance attested the
high place she held in the affections
of those who knew her.
The bereaved family have the sin
cere sympathy of their many friends.
Death of Mrs. A. F. Smith.
Mrs. Eugenia Smith, wife of Mr.
Alexander F. Smith, died at their
home in the upper 5tb district, near
Dunbar, last Sunday afternoon.
Death came suddenly, she being
at the time apparently in perfect
health.
Relatives were guest's at the Smith
home that day, and Mrs. Smith ate
a hearty dinner. ~ For a short while
after dinner Mrs. Smith was alone
in the parlor. An unusual noise was
heard, and when Mrs. Busby came
hurriedly into the room, Mrs. <|j>mith
was on the floor, dead, having fallen
from the chair in which she had been
sitting. —
The burial was at Union Church,
Crawford county, Mouday, Novem
ber 3rd.
Mrs. Smith was a daughter of the
late Mr. J. E. Rushing of near By
ron, was between 35 and 40 years of
age; a most estimable lady.
She leaves bereaved a devoted
husband, four sons, two daughters,
three brothers and two sisters, and
to these their many friends extend
tender sympathy.
—It was reported last week
that there was a case of small
pox,—a negro man—on the farm
of Mr. Virgil E. Heard on the
Macon road about 2 miles north
of Dennard. Dr. R. L. Cater
verified the report, and proper
precautions were at once enforc
ed to prevent the disease from
spreading. The house is one in
which were two light cases in
1900, but no report having been
made, the house was not cieansed
and fumigated as were all others
known to the authorities.
Hon. S. S. Taylor of the Lower
14th district will soon move with
his family to Montezuma, and occu
py the handsome residence now in
course of erection. Mr. Taylor is
an excellent citizen, and his many'
friends in Houston will regret the
removal of himself and family to
Macon county. His removal will
also make vacant the office of jus
tice of the peace of that district.
Readers of the Youoh’s Compan
ion will this week be enabled to
compare President Roosevelt’s ac
tions as chief executive with his
opinions of presidential duties ex
pressed while he was governor of
New York. In 1900 the article was
written, and is printed this week.
Possibly the comparison will be be
tween what is and what should be.

THE
FIDGETY
EvE-A-lsr
Did you ever meet a fidgety
man ?
Ever stop to think why he ap
pears s,o uneasy ?
ISfine times out of ten it’s be
cause his clothes bother him.
His coat collar bobs up to his
ears when he sits down, or the
hem in his trousers has an insane
desire to rest on his ankle bone.
Perhaps ’tis simply the vest that
causes the trouble, and when it
taps him on the lower extremity of his left ear the “Fidg
ety Man” can be seen at his best.
Men who wear our clothes don’t fidgest.
