SEMINOLE
We continue to have an abun
dance of rain. Farmers do not
get-to plow more than two days
in a week and most the time the
ground in too wet. But we hope
ere long we will have some pret
ty weather. There will still be
some fruit if not killed later on,
but not as much aa there W'as
last year.
I thought I put in my letter
last week about Linton Weaver
dying. He had been an invalid
for a long time and could not
walk for the last two years. lie
died at Charley Toles’, his broth
er-in-law’s, in Cherokee county,
Ala., but was brought back
here for burial. The Rev. Mr.
Harris of Lyerly conducted the
funeral services.
There has been some corn
planted here on high lands. A
great many of the oats sown last
fall were killed by the cold weath
er in February. The lands of
our community have been great
ly damaged by shallow plowing
and hard washing rams. There
will be a good deal of land that
will not be cultivated as it is
washed so badly that it will be
best to let it rest awhile and
then there is not labor enough to
cultivate all of the land. There
is scarcely any sown down. Land
should be sown down every 3rd
year at least.
Our public school has held up
very well. Commissioner S. E<
Jones says our school here is
above the average. We could
still make our school better if
all the patrons were interested
in the education of their children
Alcohol to Children
Ask your doctor how often he prescribes an alcoholic
stimulant for children. He wdl probably say. \ er), very ,
rarely. Children do not need Emulating. Ask him

as they should be. Two dollars
and fifty-two cents to each child
is all that parents are interested
now'. The state of Georgia is
; more interested in the education
of the children than the parents.
The state has appropriated that
much to each child while the par
ents have not as yet done much
financially. We hail a very good
i private school last summer tor
about two months. We could
have a school here all the time if
people would send, but we would
have to have a compulsory law
to cause or make pie send to
school. There are not more
than half of the children of school
age that go to school here ami
I guess it is generally about that
way all over the county in the
rural districts. Our school houses
on an average cost about two him
dred dollars, are not comfortable.
They are not attractive and many
other deficiencies I could name,
i It seems that we are taking more
interest in our criminals now than
we are in education. We have
a good jail to keep them in. cost
about eight or ten thousand dol
lars. We soon will have a $55,-
(XX) court house to convict our
childfen in and make them crim
inals. So it seems we are more
interested in our criminals than
we are in our children. It we
want more criminals we only havi

children and neglect what we

Our Sunday school was as
