Well, I will give your excellent papo
a few dots from the northeastern see
tion of Pickens county, as my father
always said this is the garden spot of
the world.
The cold weather about two weeks ago
almost ruined the small grain crop in
this section.. Some say it will come
again from the roots and some say it
will not; so if we live we will see.
John Cisson has moved his family from
here to Brevard, N. C., where he is en
gaged at work in a big machinery plant.
Ben Masters lost by death a fine cow
about two weeks ago.
W. L. Green is still confined to his
room with sickness. Many friends wish
him a speedy recovery.
W. F. Hendricks, who has had his
sawmill in this section about 18 months,
has moved it to near Griffin church. W.
F. sure knows how to cut fine lumber.
Rev. J. E. Foster filled his regular
appointment at Pleasant Grove last Sat
urday and Snnday.
Married, by Rev. J. E. Foster, at the
home of the bride's parents on Sunday,
February 11, at 3 o'clock, Miss Willie
Mayfield and Mr. Eugene Talley. Mr.
Talley is a son A. B. Talley of this sec
tion and is well known thruout Pickens
county, while the bride is the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. George R. Mayfield,
well known in Greenville county. The
writer wishes this couple a prosperou
and happy journey thru life.
The writer has in his possession an
acorn that is 52 years old and came from

kind.. P.G.S.
Along Little Eastatoe *
Farm work is progressing very slowly
as there has been so much rain an(
other bad, rough weather. Friday
February 2, was the coldest, windies
day we ever remember. The thermom
eter here registered two degrees abov:
zero on Saturday morning. We know o:
but little damage done by the wind, ex
cept that J. R. Meese had about ninet,
feet of his front porch blown off an4
carrying it over the house, bending fiv
points of the lightning rods flat down oi
the body of the house and carrging it ui
on the hill above in the field, leaving
whole. Mr. Meece is remodeling an
building back only nineteen feet of th
upper porch this time. No other dan
age was done as we have heard of.
Mr. and Mrs. James Gravley left th
section recently to try their luck 1
Dillon We are very sorry I
give them up, but hope our loss is the
gain. Mr. Gravley had been there on:
before, and we understand a job i
superintendent of a ranch awaited hi
him at a hadsome salary. We wih
them well in the far-away west.
R. A. Gravley and family have mov:

to go by way of Reedy Cove, Rocky

Rosman, N. C., for several reasons. I
would develop three sections of farming

The Parent-Teachers Association
The meeting of the Parent-Teachers

very well httended. There are twenty
one enrollments and all seem quite en
thusiastic as to the work. Mrs. Vesta
McFall is the very efficient president,
Miss Isadora Williams, vice president,
and Mrs. C. E. Robinson, secretary.
One of the noticeable effects of this
organization is the marked change in
the behavior of the boys in the audi
torium on the occasion of a lyceum or
any other entertainment. Beautiful
behavior has been noticeable recently.
It was agreed that a prize be given
the room in the school that has most
parents at the next meeting..
The co-operation of parents and
teachers is an important thing and
t every one who has a child in school
should belong to this organization. It
meets the second Wednesday in each
month at 3 o'clock. Si.C.
is Morgan-Farmer
