we commend these officers for their

The County Board of Education,
wo gave this office our examination and

tional interest.
There is apportioned to the county
for tho year 1897........ $5,030.00

Once assembled, a young man Is selected
as master of ceremonies, and the ball
begins.
“He takes his station in the center of
the room, while the rest pair off and pa¬
rade around him. Suddenly one young
woman will throw up her hands and say;
“ ‘I am a pinin.”
“the master of ceremonies takes it up,
and the following dialogue and interlocu¬
tion takes place:
“Miss Arabella Jane says-she’s'a pin¬
in’. What IS ‘ Miss Arabella Jane An
thorpe a-pi tun,’ turj’ .
“I’m a-pinin fur a sweet kiss.”
‘‘Jliss Arabella Jane Anthorpe says
she’s a-pinin’ fur a sweet kiss. Who is
Miss Arabella Jana Anthorpe a-pinin’
fur a kiss from?’
“ Tin a-pinip fur a sweet kiss from
Hugh Waddle’ (blushes, convulsive gig-
gles-and confusion on the part of Miss
Arabella Jane Anthorpe at this forced
confession.) Hugh \\ addlo walks up
manfully and relieves the fair Arabella’s
,pinin” by a smack which sounds like a
thiee-year-old steer drawing his hoof out
of the mud.
“Then a young man will be taken with
a sudden and uncountable 'pinin.”, which
after tho usual exchanges of questions
and volunteered Information, reveals the
name of the maldan who causes the
‘gnawin’’ and ‘pinin'.’ She coyly re¬
treats outdoors, only to be chased, over¬
taken, captured and forcibly compelled to
relieve her captor's distress. “At one of
these •ntertatnments. which it was the
writer’s fortune to attend, theie was a re¬
markably beautiful young woman who
had been married about a month. He
husband was present, a large, beetle-
biowed, black-eyed mountaineer, with a
fist like a ham. Th© boys fought shy of
the bride, for fear of Incurring the anger
of the hulking spouse, The game went
on for some lime, when synitons of irrl.
tation developed in tho giant. Starting to
the middle of the room, he said:
“My wife’s ez pooty, ,n ez nice, ,n sweet
ez any gvurl hyar. You uns has known
her all her life. This game has ben a-
goiti’ on half an hour au’ nobody has
p hied fur her oneet. If some one don’t
plno fur her pooty soon there will be
trouble.’
“She was the bell of the ball after that.

ths government and civilization of a
people are entirely dependent upon
the educational facilities and tyjtel-
lectvial developments of that people.
Where only one member of a family
is educated his influence is su;re to
be elevating and ennobling the
family; where the family ,shares
equally in this education a similar
influence is exerted over the.jeom-
mu nity; and the influence of /hin en-
lightened community is felt And ap¬
preciated by the surrounding coun¬
try. Since our Union is made up of
states and the states of counties and
the counties of districts composed of
citizens free to act on alf questions
of education and government ac-
cording as their best judgement may-
direct; and since not only the i pros¬
perity, but also the future destiny of
our Republic is dependeit directly
