Burdine, living near Cross Roads church, whosechild had been sick for more than a month and died last week, has been the recipient of nuch kind ness and sympathy from friends, as was shown in a practical way on Monday and Tuesday of this week. During the sickness of his child Mr. Burdine had gotten badly behind with his crop. On Saturday night in theirmeeting at Cross Roads the W. 0. W. camp decided to meet on Tues day and work out the crop of Mr. Burdine, as he was "up to his neck" in work. , On Monday several of his neighbors, fifteen or twenty in number, came and started the work. Tuesday morning eleven plows began to run and twenty-six hoe hands began hoeing.-mostly Woodment and their families. The outlook at dinner Tuesday was bright with prospects that the crop of Mr. Buidine would be free from grass at sunset of the day. Such acts of kindness show the right spirit, and brings to light the great principle of the brotherhood ,.of man, which should be commended. lisle hose bargains.
