"^COMPARES PAST WITH PRESENT Editor Herald:?I have been thinking* for several weeks 1 would write you a few lines for the paper and if this escapes the waste oasket 1 will write again. I have been thinking of the difference in people now and twenty years * ago and the part that ignorance plays in all classes of people; he great amount of misconceptions and mischievous propaganda s p r e a d among the people, and the keen eve of both man and woman concerning: social economics and financial condi-1 tions, all watching and working fori. <tne ability to fight the battles of life t(> a goal of happiness, prosperity and fame. As a writer of yours years ago, told me, ignorance is responsible for nearly everything that happens. Ignorance is the great cause of so much discontent among the people, restlessness, discomfort and uneasiness. Wliere there is ignorance there is all kinds of mental visions and thoughts to make undesirable citizens. For instance, take an infuriated mob if talked to by intelligent people nine times out of ten they will yield to reason. Ignorance is the cause of .about .all the crimes of the human ' rn ii. - - i >' i < ' * race, i ruin ana ennpntment win mane the human family act right and do right. The trouble with our County, State and National Government is that so many people don't think at all and just a few think and lots of times they think the wrong* way. The aim of everyone should he to make this land of ours a better place to live in, to promote the general welfare of all and to leave to posterity a heritage worth while. Our homes, our county, state and national government will be what we and succeeding generations make it, and if it increases on enlightment for the next century 'ike A\. has for the last where will the peo\>Je be. I think ignorance will be about ?t>ut. When T read and think of the changes of the last cenXury T wonder if it can change that much more in the coming century or will we reach the peak, lyets stop and think how ignorance has been blotted out.

Now, was it enlightment or ignorance brought us all these good things? A century or two ago witchcraft was feared by nearly everybody, and lots of old innocent women who were called witches were put to death. Enlightment has reached the people now and we are living in a land of blessings, comforts and conveniences. The social and economic advantages we today enjoy has wrapped up in it some tragedy, some heart throbs, grief and prayers. Nothing: worth while is easily ' gained and all we hold most dear today, all that makes life for the masses more endurable is the result of the toil and persistent hard labor with brains and hands of our ancestors ' whose deeds live after them in the pulsating and throbbing machinery of our industrial life and twentieth century of civilization. I for one long to see the time come when any of us undertake to do anything small or great we can do it intelligently and with our own knowledge and not have to listen to someone to tell us who would lots of times laugh at our calamity. There is now no excuse for people being ignorant as about all of the schools run seven to nine months. May God speed the time when ignor- < ance to a large extent will be blotted out. K. L. MISHOE.

The first time was two or three years ago, when the jury found a verdict of $500.00 for trie plaintiff and the company appealed to the supreme court. The supreme court granted a new trial on the ground of error in the charge of Judge Memirtinger. The jury took the case at a late hour in the afternoon, and after remaining out for a time returned with a verdict to the effect that hey could not agree. Thereupon the court declared a mistrial. This means that the case will come up again at the next term of the court and will be tried again. The next time will be the third time that it has been in the hands of a jury. o- It will pay to dust your cotton with weevil poison if the weevils are really injuring your crop and your land is capable of producing at least a third of a bale to the acre with the weevils eliminated. o MAPLE NEWS Preaching services were held atl Maple Sunday.

H. seals: and he testified to the buildintr of a fence and cutting: timber by Jos- ! iah S. Watts and Octhan Arnette. The two surveyors, Jack Long and , J. B. Gore, were appointed under an order of court to make a survey of the lands in dispute and such contig- i uous lands as might throw light on the matter in controversy. The plats made by them did not show all of these tilings as fully as should have been done in the opinion of the court. The defendants put up witnesses v*ho testified to the lines of the McMillan land, parts of which was in question and also testimony showing the dividing lines between the different portions of this McMillan land as it became cut up into smaller parcels in the course of time.
