In my opinien, the county coinmiß
sioners did a wise thing .vLen they
entertained the petition a«d divided
Watters district into Watters a d
Ridge Valley districts. There's
room enough in fiat territory, and
it the side next the Bartow county
line wants te join fortunes with
their “no fence” neighbors why—
all the better. Again I say, the
Commissioners did right.
* *

I am glad to see that the
merchants will close, beginning next
Monday, at six o’clock, in the after
noon, Now I have observed the
workings of this custom in the past,
and am heartily in accord with u-
A hen a clerk has been confine< “
store loom or oftic- irom G or 7 0,-
cifjcJr ‘us morning until 6in the
afternoon he or she deserves a rest—
and reason why all < f
them can’t have it.
If all the stores close promptly at
a stated hour, why no merchant has
an advantage over another merchant.
But if a merchant agrees to close at
six and some belated customer rush
es in at one minute to six and wants
to’ and does trade for half an hour,
or even five minutes, why the mer
chant cant close his door with out
risking an joffewe to a customer —
and while he wants to close up ever
so badly— he don’t.
. *
* *
Then it is that his competittor,
ever ready to criticise, turns his ton
gue loose; trouble follows, ana—
the clerks suffer. Now what I want
to say is addressed to that class oi
shoppers— mostly thoughtless ladies,
who do not pause to thirk oi the
needless inconvenience they work
on the helpless, the polite but pa
tiently obliging clerk : when you go
shopping in the afternoons, reme >.-
ber that you and your dollars control
and remembering that, why be hu-
I mine enough to make your purchases
so that you can, at six o’clock, be on
( the ttreet where you can see clerks
i from every store on Broadway come
pouring out of the hot stores into
the free air. This bit of advice is
gratis, only to those that need it.
Next Monday that class is requested
to use it.

I was at the Opera House last
■ night and was highly entertained
with the closing exercises of the
Rome colored schools. Prof. Dent
handled the numbers on his pro
graine 'u a most creditable manner
There was quite a number of white
people present and I am certain
that they were well pleased. One
* number on the programe: ‘T’m
a Lily of the Valley” deserves
especial mention and was roundly
encoerd by the white people. The
behavior of the audience was most
excellent and lam frank to say
that I congratulate the colored
people of Rom j on that concert.
They deserved it.

Col Seab Wright was booked for
an address but wrote that he was
too sick to be present, so stated the
principal. Superintendent J.C.Har
ris was programed to deliver the cer
tiheates but the illness of hise hild
caused him to have to leave the haij
before the performances closed.Mr
J L. Camp, President of the Board
of Trustees was present and in a most
’ eloquent and well turned little ad
‘ dress presented the graduates with
their diplomas. Professor T. Al. !

schools,is an educator of whom bis
race may well feel pnoud.

I met Mr. Herbert Valois, the

this morning. Clyde Shropshire,
Harper Hamilton, James Spul

tertain Colonel Valois, and if Don
aid Harper could have cast his
French eye bn “the way we done
it,” he would have kussed m
