Walter Wallace says one of the neighbor boys offered to bet him a ginia girls would be married month. Arch McElroy lost two herses last week and Al Burk one.

Childrens day at both churches were well attended. Miss Annie Rose is better at this writing. She has been quite sick for the past two weeks with nervous prostration. She is now with her uncle C H Morrison. It is hoped she will soon be able to get a class in music. She is a professional teacher and composes music, She has a num- ber of diplomas from different schools, Mrs Rollo Flesher is visiting her aunts and uncles around Virginia. Last Sabbath weattended the Free Methodist quarterly meeting at the Nestlerode school heuse. The pre- siding elder Rev Higgins preached with power in the forenoon. We always attend their quarterly meet- ings, they always have the John Wesley love feast, the kind that all the ME churches held fifty years ago, when the young ladies wore their neat sun bonnets, had rosy cheeks, and were a power in the church and a good influence went out among the worldly. But how changed are the facesand dress now; the roses are on top of the hats, face white with ——- and you can hardly hear what they say across the room. Uncle Israel Nestlerode gave us & grand talk. Heisin his 84th year and quite feeble; he says he is ready to go at any time. It makes us think of our boyhood days to hear the father and mother talk in love feast meeting. In the evening Miss Dora Gant of Schell City, preached a pow- erful sermon to a large agidience. Would that more of our young folks were in the good work instead of scooting round in buggies spending their time in foolish talk. Visitors: Mr Gant, wife and daughter of Schell City, JH Farley and wife of Cass county, Rev Tiernan of Wolfe, Ver- non county; Misses Alice and Ella Pilgrim of Merwin. Miss Eliza With- erspoon has charge of the Sabbath school, 40 scholars present, 10 visit- ors.

The corn is beginning to sro fast after those fine gentle showers. The hay harvest will commenee in about two weeks. Bro. Wooldridge preached 4 = zood sermon to the people Sun- aay The church was well filled and all. went home feeling that it was good to have been there.

Wm Feebeck and wife will visit his father and other relatives in Cass county this week. JB Rice has finished setting out his tobacco crop, and his corn is all plowed the second time. Byron Lockard sports a bran new buggy and harness. If some pretty girl don’t get a ride it will all be on aecount of Byron’s bashful- ness. Quite a ripple of excitement was created in this nec by Col Sharp with a new set of har- ness. We suppose he got tired of getting out eyery mud hole he came to tie up the old chain back bands. Mrs Martha Crews has one hun- dred and twenty little turkeys. if she has good luck to raise them all that will be the place to get your Thanksgiving turkeys. George Crews says his corn is do-| ing nicely, all plowed over and in goed trim. We notice that ‘‘Gabe” in Rich Hill Review, speaks of the large amount of white blossom weeds in the meadows. We agree with him, and also notice mere white clover. That is a good sign for a honey har- vest. Luther Crews will soon commence working the roads. Get ready, far- mers, to work your road tax and stop grumbling over bad roads. E. Spruce Jtems, Mr Guy Monday. Will Cook, Jake Fry and Harry Chitwoed went fishing Saturday night.
