Our community was saddened
on last Tuesday when news reach
ed here of the death of little War
ren Langford. His remains were
brought here Wednesday, March
18, for burial. Little Warren
was a bright little boy, two and a
half years of age. The fond pa
rents have the sympathy of their
mauy friends at this place, and
would say, “Grieve not, for he is
at rest now.”
There has not been any small
pox in our town yet, hut we are
looking every day for it to rise
up here; it is all around. It keeps

pox, hut whatever it is, it is noth
ing good and we don’t need it.

legeB, looated at Atlanta, Nashville, St.
Lonie. Montgomery, Little Rook, Fort
Worth, Galveston and Shreveport, are
sohools of national reputation. They
are Btrongly endorsed by business m§n
from Maine to Calisornia. Prof. Dragh-
on, who is author of four text.-books on
Bookkeeping, and proprietor of these in
stitutions, doubtless expends more mon
ey for securing positions for his students
than almost any one business oollegean
this oountry takes in as* tuition. He
guarantees positions under reasonable ,
conditions, and will allow a Btudent to ’
deposit money in bank till the oourse is
completed and 1 position seoured. Four
weeks course of Bookkeeping iu his col
leges is equal to twelve weeks in any col
lege thut does not employ his improved
methods of teaching. His Colleges bIbo
offer speoial advantages iu Penmanship,
Shorthand, Typewriting, eto. It is gen
erally oonoeded by those who are in po-
{sition to know that Prof. Draughon’s
success in the Business College work has
been greater than that of any one else.
His superior oourse of iustruotion and
his speoial facilities for seouring posi-
1 tions are almost an offset to competition
