I want to go an’ see my sister, an?
would like to carry him some fault.
Can’t you credit me for a quarter’s

Joe looked incredulous and shook
his head. Nothing abashed the col
ored sister lover urged: “You seel
is honest for dough you don’ fargit

face and dropping that long lost
nickle down deep in his pants pock

can’t trust you; if it took you seven
years to pay the five cents, how long

To-morrow’s Excursion.
To:morrow afternoon’s excursion
bids fair to be an -interesting one.
The chairman of the committe has
arranged everything with an eye to
comfort. Two boats will leave the
m. The first boats will return
fore night thus accommodating the
ladies and children. The night
boats will start , back at«10 or 11

moonlight will be something enjoya
ble.
The object of the excursion is to
raise funds for the purchase of a flag
to be awarded to the successful com
pany at the approaching encampment
contest on St. Simons. Remember it
is the ladies who ask your aid, then
lend a helping hand. If you don’t
want to go yourself buy a ticket and
send some one else who can go.

Son contest.
“Anything to beat tho Wide
Awakes” seemed, from all that can
be gathered, the prevailing feeling at
thG Dawson tournament . The first
thing done was an attempt to ex
clude three of the fastest runners of
the team, on the flimsy charge that
they wore “professionals.” If our
boys had carried out the idea of with
drawing right then and there from
the tournament, such action would
have met with the unanimous approv
of their many friends hero and else
where. Neither did it stop with the
above; they were kept on the track
for about an hour while the wrang
ling oyer the hose, couplings, etc.,
was going on, and taxing everything
ip to due consideration, they deserve
great credit indeed for tho glorious
record made by them.

Don’t Crowd the Monkey.
Charley Pendleton of the Valdos
ta Times gives the following inci
dents of tho dinner to the Georgia
Press at Blue Ridge on our recent
North Georgia trip:
At Blue Ridge a one eyed moun
taineer was striving to keep the
crowd back while the editors were
banquetting. It was amusing to
hear him shouting, “dont crowd the
monkey, boys, don’t crowd the mon
key!” They haven’t had a square
meal in five weeks!” Then ho would
spoil the joke by turning to the ed
itors to protest that he was only
joking.
“Now look good, gals, there’s the
editors," said a burly mountaineer
at one of the stations, as he stood by
ttie roadside holding the bands of
two country lasses. Ho spoke with
the interest of a- father to his off
spring upon their first visit to a me
nagerie. ___
