It does us good to see the, citi
zens of a town all pull to”th‘er
for the betterment of the place
they call home. And this was
demonstrated on Tuesday last,
right here in Hazlehurst, when
the bonding of the town was vo
ted on. They came mighty near
all voting the same way, and it
takes such a spirit and unison to
make a town grow and prosper.
During our many years stay up
on this mundane sphere we have
lived in several towns that were
bonded, and we never saw one in
our life that diin’t grow and{
prosper.
A healthy tewn with a good
school, : prosperous churches; a
live paper, electric lights and
water-works, makes a very de
sirdble’ town to live in,and a
town where monied men wiil 10-.
cate in from elsewhere. \
Now, let’s all pull for Greater
Hazlehurst.
There were 0n1y.121 votes cast
in all, and 105 of these were for
water-works and to erect a new
school builuing. |
Six out of the 121 voted against
the.. school building and five
against water-works..
There were only one negro
who voted during the day, and
he was Dave Fryer. He cast
his vote for water-works and a
new school él)uilding. ._
Delightful- Entertainment.
Perhaps, the most delightful
entertainment of the season was
that given at the home of Mr. &
Mrs. J.J. Frazier on Saturday
evening, March 13th _
~ Several interesting games
were played and it was anevident
fact thatall, had fullyenjoyed the
occasion-
The following young people
were ' present: ‘Misses Ruth
Woodward, Jimmie Curry, Lula
Girtman, Annette Cromartie,
Gertrude Youmans, Mary F'razier
Lola Jarvis, Mrs, Gill. Messrs.
Vonderaw,. Cromartie;. Knight
and Gill. ' ;
After voting Mrs. Frdzier a
most ' charming lostess and
delightful entertainer, the party
returnéd to their respective
homes fully conscious of an even:
ing well spent.
We dropped in atithe Peoples
Drug Store on Tuesday morning
ldst, and found the obliging pro
prietor, Mr. Jarvis. and Mr.
Charlie Latimer,his affable clerk
both just as busy as they could
be, opening up and marking a
line of finé stationary, and évery"
thing that a school child néeds,
from a piece of chalk up. Heal

cash books, etc. Anything in the

§ came #bout this why: Last
Saturday evening while passing
the Pierce House we' atopped
and talked with Ty Cobb—one
of the world’'s greatest base ball
players—for 8 moment or two,
During this time our three little
boys'came up. Leohad a ball
in his’hand, as they were just re
turning’‘from the ball ground
where they had been playing.
After looking at Mr. Cobb for a
moment or two he let the ball
fly at him, Of course he coughy
it and they pitched it at each
other for quite awile. Bob and
Bill stood off and watched them,
and finaily decided that Leo was
receiving too much honor, and
that they wanted a little of it
themselves, so the three of them
pitched and caught the ball with
Ty Cobb, the world’s famous
base ball plaver, and they think
it was one of the greatest honors
of their lives. They feel awfully
swelled over this matter, and
we think that they have told
every man, boy and.negro in
town that they played ball wiih
Ty Cobb, Which was:soo.
