What next?
There was a game of baseball at
Willacoochee last Friday afternoon
between Willacoochee and Pearson
nines, resulting in a score of 5 to 2
in favor of Willacoochee, and a
hatch of hard feelings which threat -
en to prevent further games be
tween these clubs. The Tribune
doesn't know who is to blame for
the misunderstanding,but remarks
that unless they can play a friend
ly game they ought not to play
with each other at all. Baseball
is a manly game and (he Tribune
loves to witness the game, hut the
lighting blood that goes along with
thi' average baseball team is an
abomination.
The joint art exhibition and
musical recital of Misses Emerson
and Neal was a most pleasant or
casion—entertaining and edifying.
There was a good sprinkle of peo
ple present but not what should
have been; and the Tribune, in all
kindness, says this apparent lark
of appreciation should not have
occurred. The people of Pearson is
entirely 100 careless about- -the
welfare of (heir children —do not
lend them the encouragement they
should. On this occasion the
auditorium should have been filled
with people; it would have been
an inspiration to those who took
part in the exercises. The musi
cal program lasted just one hour
and of a character showing the pu
pils have made wonderful progress
under Miss Neel’s training. Elder
Claus, Mrs. Dudley and Miss
Tommie Whitley, acting as judges,
awarded the metal in art to Miss
Doris Dickerson. Mr. Horace
M. McNeal made the awarding
speech.
Mrs. Oliver Layton arrived at
home from Atlanta Wednesday of
last week. She was at the home
of her brother during the great
conflagration; saw her brother's
home burn with quite allots eon
tents; she and her children lost the
greater part of their clot hing. She
say's the scene was awful and es
pecially trying on the nerves of
the women and children who stood
and witnessed the lire fiend sweep
ing away their earthly belongings.
