wait until their arrival, but lets
make the resolutions now and begin
to shed sunshine and cheer. Little
things like these are what count in
this life. If we have a rose to give lets
give it today for in front of tpday
stands that uncertain tomorrow, and
we know not what it may bring, yet
we hope further and if it was not
for hope to guide the future would be
50 meaningless.
And don’t forget sweet Charity as
these days arrive for it will send ben
edictions into some sad life, and
bring sunshine and. happiness that
count so much in this life. And this
is the time too, above all others that
we should crush stubborn, wrongful
pride, that forbids us acknowledging
our faults and shuts out the joy and
sunshine that comes from the reali
zation that ‘““to err is human and to
forgive is divine'.
Wishing all, and especially the
Journal staff and it’s readers, a mer
ry Christmas and a happy New Year.

dents and readers a merry Xmas and

DUE WEST.
The Odd Fellows rally held at this
place last Saturday was a grand suc
cess. Col. Herbert Clay was out ‘and
at his best. His speech was highly ap
preciated by all present. The music
that was rendered by the cheir was
extra fine and the dinner was the
most sumptious we have seen in this
‘part for some time.
~ We wish to extend to each one who
‘helped us to make the day long to
be remembered among oOdd Fellows
‘our sincere thanks.
Mr. T. J. Helton, who has been
confined to his room for some time is
some better we are glad to say.
Mr. Will Price who was very much
indisposed a few days ago, is able
to be out again.

near Hickory Grove spent Saturday
night with his father in law, Mr.
W. S. Williams.
Mr. David Dickson whose health
has been very bad since June is still
no better we are sorry to say.
Mr. Will Waters of Woodstock has
rented Mr. Asa Darby’s home place
and will move there this week. We
extend a hearty welcome to Mr. Wat
ers to our community.
Short crops and high prices have
got Mr. farmer in a mighty bad fix.
Now the only hope we can see, is for
the farmers to quit feeding the trust
and corporation and for him to com
mence now and make preparations
to move his corn crib and smokehouse
from the West and put it close to his
residence. So long as we raise cotton
we will be erying hard times.
We believe the day is not far hence
when the people realize in their agri
cultural persuits that they must
raise cotton as a surplus crop if they
‘('\'t‘l‘ (‘X]N‘(‘l to make any money out
of it. We have a fine country for hogs
cattle, corn, hay, and potatoes. And
by raising such things as these we
will make a safe hit to relieve these
high prices.

~ The new preacher, Rev. A. C. Can
trell filled his first regular appoint
‘ment here last ‘Sunday week. Those

We are pleased to note that Mr.
Gifford and Mr. Gresham who recent
ly bought the farms of Messrs. W. A.
Sams and Wayland P. Camp have.
moved their families to these beauti
ful homes. These people are quite an
addition to our community. We wel
come them. |
Our people are nearly all moving |
again this winter; what about alli
thiseunrest, and useless worry, aftm'i
all one place is just as good as an
other, several days ago our Mr. John |
Boynton started this moving business
by going back to his fathers near
Powder Springs. Mr. D. C. Under
wocd will take his place, we are glad |
to know. |

farm of our former neighbor, Mr.
Frank Collier at Smyrna.

Hall and he settled near New Salem
and Mr. Sam Berges took his place.

Jr., tried the experiment and landed

try his luck and waked up next morn
ing at jolly good old Coon Shaws, and
there also is a place to rent."
Next in order will be Messrs. . M.
Legg and Abe Kirkendoll. They will
take the place. vacated by one Mr.
Gamage at Mt. Zion, who by the way
went to Kast Point last week in the
rain.,
On Thursday of this week Mr. Tom
Byrd will go back to his boyhood
home near Lawrenceville and Mr.

to. live and die here.
And by the way we are glad to add
that Mr. Andrew Johns who has
spent some three years here will re
turn and bring his brother with him
just as soon as Mr. Tom Read’s house
is vacated. Next in order for a flight
is Mr. C. E. Kimberly who has had
Texas fever for two years. We are all
very sorry to give up this friend and
neighbor. Mr. Dela Hardage takes
his place we are delighted to say. The
next one infatuated with these con
ditions is Mr. Cliff Jones who will
make a landing on Pea Ridge. Lest
we forget we will state that Mr. Bar
net has returned from Fulton County
and stopped with Cole Nesbhitt for an
other year and Messrs. Seaph Hicks
and Luke Hipps will occupy the
places vacated by Legg and Kuyken
dall.
We hope that no one who professes
the name of Christ will be guilty of
celebrating His birthday by drinking
the devils brother.
A merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year to the editress and all the
correspondents, together with all our
many readers,
Don’t You See.
EDITORS NOTE: It looks like it
might be a good idea to put Nesbitt
on wheels.

Jane Austen Unpopular.
It has been pointed out with some
surprise that the late W. 8. Gilbert
had a strong dislike for Jane Austen,
but a correspondent of the New York
Evening Post reminds us that Mark
Twain had a similar antipathy, He
sald once that “a library that does not
contain Jane Austen's works is a good
library, even if it hasn't another book
in it.”

something more than “cheap
ness.” 'We could sell you
at lower prices,than our present
figure but they would be “cheap”
goods and the chances are that
you would not like them.
Better to buy these goods be
cause they are of sterling quali
