The health ol' our community is very good at present. Aliss Huronee Owen has been visiting near Sept us recently. .Miss Irene Wilson is visiting relatives at Hickory Flat. Airs. W. a. ?nullard has returned from a visit tot? reenville. Air. and Mrs. .'. AI. Hammond have been visiting in (?reenville recently. Mr. Samuel Ki roil, who has been very mw for some lime, is, we are glad to hear, convalescing. Air. W. A. Owen, who has been mer chandising at ( i nylon this year, has bought a nice little farm and erected a handsome storeroom on it near (his pince. Wo wish him much success. Our young people have enjoyed two most delightful pound parlies recently at the homes ol'Air. K. I*. .Marlin and Air. M. AI. Magwell. The farmers ot this section are done gathering and have about completed the sowing of their small grain crops, which is the largest area and best pre pared that has been sown in many years. Airs. W.

Cracklings go very well in corn cake, but we don't like to see them going in the puhlic road. War is being waged on thc feathered trihi- in dead earnest. Hut, Mr. Sports man, please don't load your gun quite so heavy, as it explodes with so much violence that you only get the noise, and in a great many instances you leave feathers enough on that to soon take it beyond your renell. ?Viiit?.-!, refreshing winter! This is tho time when farmers take a few days to rest up, and eat what they have m a do tho precedingyear. That's right, boys, rest up some. Don't bustle around and try to do it all or get it all in a ?ew months. Hut, remember that a short rest is a sweet one. Don't rest too long, fibd something to do that will be a benefit to you. If you can't timi any thing to do that wjllbea beneiit to y ou, do something that will benefit others. A man should not expect to receive nomei lung in return every time he docs a thing. The man who wants to re ceive a reward every time he does a thing generally receives but few anti Maali rewards. Itailling has become quite popular willi some of our people.
