I think ftiey ought to have felt that way before they began throwing stones. They go on and say that they haven’t any children to put in school now. Well, if they haven't what are they kicking so hard about. That’s what *uzzles ipe. Now. Mr. Editor, this Anxious, as they call themselves, claims not to be a citizen of Ashton, but only passes through Ashton occasionally. If they are not a citizen, we hope they will not locate here, for we do not want those kind of bark-biters. - Now, Mr. Editor, enough has been said _abQut_ the awful AaJbUm but all intelligent people know that graag grow* in the summer.

In some way she got' hold of.a pound can of gun powder which she started to pour on a burning piece of a fire cracker. Tim powder in the can exploded and burned he" face and hand badly. While the burns were serious she is doing nicely and it is thought the wounds will heal with only slight scars lefti-if any. our good folks were going there to church and Sunday school, and they wade through the awful grass from April until October, then the trus tees meet and hire the grounds cleaned up. Now. Mr, Editor, our "Anxious" say s it gets their goat beca use he does not know whether it is a "he” or a "she’’ that replied. Now that "kinder" gets my goat, for 1 did not know that we had any ntfnd-readers in this vicinity. But any way, our "Anxious” admits that there was a path hoed from the road to the steps. 1 admit that We have some sharp women, still we have some foolish ones, and they always think they know more than anybody else. Now it seems to roe that our first Citizen is trying to tear down our school, but it is growing .spiti of it. Three year* •go we had twenty-odd scholars; today we have eighty-three or four. That sounds to me like she is grow ing. Our "Anxious” wants to know if tve ha\e people here in Ashton that don’t contribute to anything. Yes, we have a few. but sorry to aay so. Now. Mr. Editor, cur '"Anxious" says that last piece tore them all to pieces, and puzzles them so until they won’t write any more. 1 think R Is getting high time for "Anx ious'’ to stop and crawl off and hide. , Now. Mr. Editor, our "Anxious" speaks of pitchforks being pitched. I think they are the ones that are using the forks. I said nothing un til the thing was run in the giound, then I came to the rescue. All this stuff was being said because "Anx ious" did not appreciate our little professor. Now. as 1 am not much of ;• grammar scholar. 1 admit get ting my plurals mixed, but it seems to me that "Anxious” did not use murh gr.tiHuiar either. Now. as I ! said. I can't speak much grammar.
