A CHANGE-
With this issue the Skntinel, ns a
semi weekly, ceases. We embarked
in its publication realizing that it was
an experiment, and experience has
demonstrated that, financially at
least, it has not been a success and
we propose to try it no longer. On
Thursday, the sth of January, we ex
pect to resume our weekly visits in
an enlarged form -from that of n six
column folio to an eight. All who
have paid the difference in price and
whoso subscriptions have not expired
will be given due credit on our books.
We have perfected arrangements to
give our readers a paper second to
no country paper in the St ite at the
low price of $1 a year in advance.
Our Seniof will still preside over
the editorial columns ami do the gen
eral selecting; while the Junior will
spare no pains in keeping the local
department abreast with the times
We have secured the services of
Mr. 0. E. Atkinson, who will have
charge of the mechanical department
of the paper. As for the fighting
editor we will dispense with his ser
vices, as we expect to try to live in
peace with all mankind, and begin
the now year with a happy greeting
to all.
XMAS-
Barrons Sentinel :
A'i'*i the vonng folks, happy, care
less ? oung folks Xmas is doubly wel
come. So it was with me. God
bless the children, how we should en
dcuvorJb add t<- their amusement
tbeunuppinewL I have been rumi-
somewhat to-day about Xmas
kiwi glad you come but once a year.
Humiliating is nothing more than
building air castles, and I've been
building some to-day. Says I, “sup
pose you had about ten thousand
ddllurs out at work for you?" If I
had I’d look at least 15 years young
er for those care-wrinkles would van
ish and, oh, wouldn’t I enjoy Xmas—
wouldn't I wade into a big gobler
with avidity, wouldn’t I sit in my ,»asy
chair, with no such little bothera
tions ns no wood to cut, no cows to
feed, no furrows to run, no compost
heaps to build, no acid to buy and
lust-, but not least, no- -Great Scots,
no—sons of midnight to coax along.
Well, I traveled on in this line until
I got (so to speak) in an ant's nest,
these big old rod ants, you know, add
when they begun to bite and sting I
awoke from my unpleasant reverie
with the understanding that I need
ed a boss, and hearing some one say,
•‘look here, the meal is out, you’d bet
ter shell a turn of corn, and bless
your life, here was my boss, the Oman
with a tray of sausage meat, mixing
sage ami pepper in it, mind engaged
and fingers, too, in a laudable busi
ness —contented with her lot. And
herejis the secret —contentment. Now
I am not the only one perhaps who
aometimes bewail their lot who al
low such refiectiona to ward off the
enjoyment that Xmas would bring,
but thanks to goodneas these spells
are ouly periodical and I am ready
with bright hopes, too, to take in
• Xmas, and then, with ax in hand, to
fell a viney, briery, tangled up pine
thicket for the crop of ’BB. Os eouise
if I had lO.OOt) might be ready for
Xmas, but as it is. 1 am not and m v
or was it seems. 1 believe it is hard
er to get ready for Xmas than it is to
get rid of gruss in hoeing time. Clif
fy’s idea of Xmas is that you just but
up against the wall of the next year
ami there is no possible opening for
work—nt least for 30 days and some
of them just but on and never find
the gate.
.But awnv with such doleful
thoughts—this is Christmas! I'be
chickens know it and are prouder,
crow louder and longer and oftener.
Santa Clause is coming and the chil
dren have driven some nails to hang
their stockings on. Ami I intend to
hang up a bag and will be not at
all surprised to find a hickory in it,
for the boss says I need it and I know
that euffv needs it and if it was sash
ionable to apply it He would quickly
I find the gate. G.
I!ax Arrived-
Rev. R. P. Martin, pastor of the
Harlem circuit for the year 1888,. ar
rived on Tuesday. It is to be regret
ted that the church here was not
aware of his movements, for they had
intended to meet him in a body and
give him a warm reception. How
ever, he is among friends and we
hope a successful year is in store for
him.
