The Tribune was in error about
the date of the Justice of the
Peace election. Instead of Satur
day, the Bth day of January, it
should have stated that it would
be on Monday, January 3rd.
Please note this correction.
Last Monday was designated by
City Council as “Clean up day!"
and the smoke from burning trash
and debris filled the atmosphere
hereabouts for several days. “Get
it clean —tiie city—and keep it
clean" should be our motto.
The annual meeting of the stock

any will be held in the bank build
ing Wednesday, January sth, and

l)r. Morris was operated on at the
Baptist hospital for appendicitis.
The latest from him is that he

getting along finely. Mr. C. J.
Morris has returned.
Both'pf the Pearson churches,
Baptist and Methodist, have adopt
ed the envelope system of making
their contributions for the support
of their local work, 'flic plan is a
good one. and il is (he inauguration
of at least some of the system nec
essary for the orderly and success
ful carrying on their work.
Pearson has two of the most in
teresting Sunday Schools she has
ever had. The people are display
ing more interest tn the teaching
of the Scriptures. There is no
doubt if the grown people would
attend and set the example of giv
ing and studying the Bible the
young people would surely follow
the example. Try it, fellow citi
zens!
Prof. J. M. Thrash, President of
the Eleventh District Agricultural
School, at Douglas, went on the
recent Tech Excursion through
northern states and inspected some
of the big manufacturing plants
enroute. Last Friday evening, on
invitation of citizens of Pearson he
came here and g£lvc a detailed
statement.of what he saw and the
impression it had made upon his
mind. The meeting was held in
the school auditorium and guile
a number of the business people of
the city heard him. The Tribune
editor regrets that sickuess pre
vented his being present.
A Welcome Visitor.
Mr. W. \V. Sharpe, Sr., of Way
cross, was in the city Friday after
noon and the Editor was glad to
meet him.. They have been friends
from young manhood, when both
were starting out to make their
career in the world. “Billy,” as
the Editor familiarly knows him,
was favorably impressed with what
he saw of Pearson, and thinks At
kinson county has a bright future
before her if the people work to
gether to that end. Both were so
deeply engrossed in discussing the
future of this section that the
Editor forgot to inquire after the
health of “Miss Inez,” although
“Billy” was generous enough to
drop $1.50 in the till to strengthen
the health of the Tribune. The
Editor begs pardon.
Miss Charlotte Rieketson is at
home for Christmas.
Miss Marie Roberts, who lias
been attending Freeman's Business
College at Albany, is at home for
the holidays.
Mrs. Marion Bradford and sister,
Miss Belle I’afford, are expected
from Albany tomorrow morning to
spend the holidays with their par
entsand other relatives and friends
in this city.
The! )ig lumber shed at Leliaton
was burned one day last week on
tailing a heavy loss upon its own
ers. There was little or no insur
ance. It is understood that it will
be rebuilt as rapidly as pdssible.
Messrs. Charlie and Wash Doug
las reached the city from points in
Florida Tuesday afternoon, four
o’clock. Father Time seems to bo
dealing gently with them. They
will remain in this section, among
relatives and friends, until after
New Year. Glad to see the boys.
They will all come back to Atkin
son Gounty after awhile; it is the
best country on earth.
Wellborn 'Corbitt reported to
the Editor last week that a Curtis
Air Plane, becoming disabled, conic
to the ground in an old field near
his place one day the week before.
He said he did not see any liquor
but the gossip was there was eight
cases on board. The ships found
ering was attributed to its cargo.
The plane and the whiskey, if
there was any, got away safely.
If anybody actually saw any of the
beverage, they are reticent about
it.
The tax books °f Atkinson Comi
ty closed promptly Monday and
now the work of issuing executions
aginst delinquents will proceed.
However, Commissioner Weathers
has authorized the ’Tribune to state
that all persons paying their taxes
by the first Monday in January
will be permitted te do so without
extra cost, giving them another op
portunity of paying their taxes hud
saving costs. The officers are dis
posed to be as lenient with lax
payers as they can under the law
and their oaths of office.
The contractor, in charge of the
work of sinking a well to provide
the city with a supply of water,
reported Tuesday morning, 10
o'clock, that lie had reached the
desired end and had he thought a
bountiful supply of wholesome wat
er. The members of council, who
was appointed to look after the
matter, promptly went on a tour
of inspection, and was reinforced
by a number of citizens. They
found the machine pumping up a
volume of clear water, slightly im
pregnated with sulphur. All
hands quenched their thirst at the
well and pronounced it just what
they had been wanting for a num
ber of years. The Editor drank
some of the water and unhesitat
ingly pronounce it the equal of
any artesian, water that has been
found in this section of the State.
What sort of citizens are expect
ed to develop from boys who loaf
the streets, smoke cigarettes and
listen to the careless and often dir
ty conversations of grown-up idlers?
Parents who thus turn their boys
loose on the public no doubt will
receive their' punishment in time,
but, in the meantime, what of the
general effect of this bringing up?
