From Pickens Ronte 3
Mr. Editor: if you will allow
us space in your valuable col
umns we will attempt to write a
few dots from our quiet section
of the county. And as we take
up our feeble pen we find our
selves exactly . midway of the
eleventh month of the year
yes, drifting on over the sea of
time amid joys and sorrows, yet
living in an age of peace, prog
ress and prosperity. Ten more
days, then comes that historic
day-Thanksgiving- set apart
by the leader of this great na
tion as a day of thanksgiving
and prayer for the peace, 'happi
ness and prosperity that we en
joy while our sister -nations
across the sea are engaged in a
bloody conflict, taking- the liyes
of their fellow men and destroy
ing property. Let us all be
thankful that our old ship of
state is so steered that we are at
peace with all the world. Then
again there is another happy
feature that pertains to Thanks
giving day. It bring; home all
the members of the family who
are away fighting life's battles,
to once more gather around the
family circle for a day of joy and
happiness, recalling the pleas
ures of childhood days and cheer
ing the loved ones who are still
at home. Let is all be thank
ful for the many blessings that
we enjoy.
Everybody has been busy for
the past three sunny weeks nick
mng cotton, gathering corn and
sowing grain. and now that we
have have had a irefreshing-rain
the ground will be.in a more-sea
sonable order for sowing. Cotton
is about all picked out and the
crop is short. The corn orop is
also short.
