VOL. XXVII. No. 26 . I
ASBESTOS BUZZING
Mr. Slate of Cornelia was at
Reservation one day last week. lie
stated that they had a fine crop of
apples.
Mr. Richard Turner is now liv¬
ing at the old ginsang farm and is
now employed by' Mr. Tljos, .M
Bell.
Mrs. R. \V. Ash accompanied by
Misses Pearl Jackson and Laura
Ash were visiting in this section
recently.
We had ideal weather for Easter
and everybody seemed to enjoy it.
Mr. and Mrs. Comer Jackson are
now spending a few days in this
section.
Several are now attending court.
If everybody would follow the gol¬
den rule there wouldn’t be much
need of courts and jails.
Some from here attended the all
day singing at Pisgah last Sunday
and report a nice time.
Business is now picking up.
They have begun to dig asbestos
and some to dig fish bait.
Mr. Medlock has scraped the
roads with his mules thereby prov¬
ing that the mule is still a factor
for power.
The whippoorwill has announced
the arrival of vernal Spring by
calling in bis note* clear.
Bobby Jones who has not been
very popular with the lair sex has
purchased a “tin lizzie” and lie is
now being sought by a dozen or
more. It is hard to tell which they
like the best, the boy or l.is auto.
Mr. Smith who has had the flu
seven times, nine attacks of the
measles, the mumps, the itch, pneu¬
monia, T. B., and the rheumatism
all this past Winter is getting well.
He has again cheated the grave
and disappointed some of the
people who were expecting to have
a big time going to his funeral.
Johnny who was a very dull boy
and was called a half-wit by some
and who was very ugly, with a
cow lick on his forehead, has
worked his way through school and
has discovered the sixth sense and
mastered the fourth dimention. He
will soon return to the delight of
all and soon will install a filling
station and a garage here. So
there is nothing like a success.
They used to call them exhibi¬
tions but they call them commence¬
ments now. We don’t know why
but we suppose it is we then begin
to find out how little we know and
begin to learn of the mistakes we
have made. Years ago the exer¬
cise* began early in the day and
lasted until late at night. The
girls had selections sucii as : “Why
should the spirit of mortal be
proud" and “We are seven.” Tfie
boys receited : “Give me liberty,”
“The bov stood on the burning
deck” and “I have but one lamp
by which my feet are guided.”
These selections were inter¬
spersed by tnerry tunes by country
fiddlers such as: “Old Dan Tuck¬
er,” IIop Light Ladies” and Co¬
lumbia! Columbia! the gueen of
the world and the child of the
skies” and “At last Napoleon re¬
treats.

The program last Sunday was
splendid and enjoyed very much by
all.
The attendance was also splen¬
did and we W'ere very much pleased
to have the 15 . V. P. U. on that
occasion.
The League attendance of the ist
Methodist Church in Gainesville
last Sunday night was s tid to have
about i2 and our attendance was
about 175.
My good people you ought to
boost our League, back us up, ad¬
vertise it every where you go and
take a helping part in the inter¬
esting programs every' Sunday
night.
Another good thing ir that the
Cleveland League is the only one
of the same organizations in the
county.
The program next Sunday night
will be given by Miss Mary Lou
Sutton.
We are very glad the prayer
service is still alive and progressing
very fast.
It sure would be a slam on our
people if we should drop these
helpful services, after having a
League for over three years and a
prayer service for over two years,
but our prayers are that this will
never happen in Cleveland.
Down through the blackness
A snowflake flies,
White like a ghost in the night—
Then dies.
Deatli is as far
As our wisdom goes,
Though the snowflake lives
In the fragrant rose.

The American Legion is now
carrying on a drive to raise an en¬
dowment fund to take care of the
orphan children of those veterans

disabled soldiers that the govern¬

and we hope all the $5,000,000
asked for and more will be sub¬
scribed.
A heart that cannot beat in sym¬
pathy with poor little helpless

service to otir country is a hard
heart indeed.
