THE CLEVELAND COURIER Vol. XIV. No. 19.J LOUDSVILLE LINES. Mr. Walter Underwood had a wood chopping at his home last Thursday. Mr. C. C. Abernathy is building some chimneys for Mr. J. M. Glov¬ er. Mr. G. W. Sims and your cor¬ respondent spent a few days over in the western part of the Blue Ridge surveying land last week. Mr. John Underwood has moved to the R. W. Allison mill. Mr, Ben O’Kelley was up this way Saturday. We are always glad to see Ben. Mr. James Thomas was on a vis¬ it to his sons Saturday. Misses Pearl and Icy Clark spent Saturday night with Mrs. Ledford. Mr. A. J. Thomas lias been very unwell for some time with rheu¬ matism. Mr, T. J. Clark paid Lumpkin county a visit a few days ago. Mr. John Robinson and Bud Pruitt were down this way last week. Mr. T. K. Adams has been very unwell for some few days. Mr. Luther Glover went down the road Sunday afternoon. We don’t know, but we are thinking that Luther has a matrimonial bee in his hat. A good old methodist asked us the other day how it was that we could find so many Christians among the young people? We think they are all very good but, Brother, we think that we can show you in the year 1913 that a Brother went to one of his Sisters in the church, and said that she must not court a certain young man. We do not know whether he was directed by the Lord or by ids own feelings. That fellow was not in the same church that she was, and we suppose he did not want her to court anyone but her own faith and order, so one of her own faith and,order set in with CLEVELAND, GEORGIA, FEB. 21, 1918. and we suppose the good Brother is now singing “Roll the OldChar iot along,” and “God be with you till we meet again.” Now we sup¬ pose all that you have to do is to join the church, pay 35 cents a year, don’t drink any whiskey, break nine out of ten of the com¬ mandments, cut the Pigeon’s wing, and you are certain to be saved. si ioaxTcreekTrTefs .

Since the sound of the whistle from the locomotive in White coun¬ ty things are beginning to hum a little. I notice in last week’s Cou¬ rier that Robertstown is expecting the removal of the court-house to that place. It is also whispered in a low voice that Clermont in Ilall county wants the state capital, and from the way that Dr. Evans has been been pacing over Mossy Creek nothing short of receiving the ap pointment of Postmaster General from President Wilson will satisfy him, and all on account of having voted a democratic ticket. Hurrah for Clermont, Robertstown and the Dr. They may all get their desire, but somehow some people doubt it. [Price 50 Cents. PLEASANT RETREAT.
