THE I'ItTMS% EXCURISON.
Our1 friend, Alhe Press and Balner,
has antually found fault with the pro
graiml or excursion as provided by the
ofllers. snee we have been eonneected
with te Association in an oleal ea
pacity.
I desire V) say for the benetit. of those
who ilay not un11derstand the arrange
luents fully thatl at a mleeting of the
Executive ( t)nlitit.tee it was devided to
toke a trip to Nashville at tihe conelus
lot) or the mneeti-g at Newberry and the
neretary and lPresident were. author
' ed to make tle necswary rr nge
ments. in order to divide t ve work I
undertook the arrangemtents for the
trip while the Secretary was to assist
in selurilg 'transportation to the annu
al meeting.
The result of my laborts has been
printed in detail. I am sorry that the
plans do not ieet the approval of t lie
Press and iBanner, but tien it is hard
ly to be expected that any arrange
Ir.ent.s could be made to Meet with uni
versal pitI1piolat ioln.
I have given a great deal of tiIV to
this iatter atnd It has cost me some
money, but both have been given free
ly and.heartily in order to m1a'e a pleas
ant trip for those who desire to take it.
The takhtg of !he trip is not compulso
ry on any tilber and neither is any
member who to ces it bound to confotm
to the. progratim if he does not desire to
do so, but to make the trip with any
sort of order or comfort or pleasur)
some kind of program and schedule
had to be arranged and tihe one made I
hoped would meet with apl,roval. Plor
instance, those who prefer other enter
01tinment thiatt going to ch1nuch on Sun
(lay ttle not obliged to go to church.
As to publishing all the correspond
ene it would take a weeklV newspaper
foi that purpose alone. I printed t-ne
letter irom N r. H 1 . a 1, o' the Wes
tern and A tiant.iv,which gave tiht cond i
tions 1111411 whIi'ch transpolrtati:1 woul
be issued and lie has my word that I
will eollformli to those condil.iolls, antd I
will do so. If any editor wants to go it
It'o le t.her. is 110 colipllsiol oil him to
go with the party or to secure Iis
transport,ation through tle Seeretary
and 'resilent. But we its oilleiurs of
the Association were authorized to act
for the Association, and so far as I anm
concerned as 'resident I will seeI'
transportatinon only for mIlemblers of the
Assoeiation. oithirwise what wohlitl lie
the good of our- having an Asciation
and acting tillfo it?
And my revollectionl of tle Chiicluo
tril is thait, it. was necet'ssary to haNe
imellberslip il tlie Assoviation for
trasporttion throtigh the Secretary.
Eli meIei' will 'IaVe his own1 tiek
et. and canl remlnain iitil it is olit -usu
ally 310 days. I thought four days would
be about as long as the majority Woldll
care to remalii in Natsiville, but those
who want, to stay longer ean do so.
1 giant that, severval days coul he
51pen1t pleasanltly in ('hattanooga. lbut
away from their business so longY
As to the ['ui. man ear 1 tholught it,
would be more plleasat, to have our'
own ciar for' the enit,ire tr'ip, but, neither
la that coampulsory and up t,o this tinme
I have heardl fronm (lily two miemlbers
aiid if tile others do not responlmd we
will have no ear, for I will not, oirdeir it
ulless I have tihe mloneLy to pay totr It.
1, semted to mie that, $5.00 wtas cheap
foir the use of a car' for six days and
those who (10 not l'ett,urn with the pari'
ty will onily be depived oIf its uise fori
0one day and1( we had1( nO idea there
would be kicking omi that score.
Aft,er the State waslt kinid eniough to
publish it fuu the I tinlerar'y I dlid nlot,
mail aniy more copiles of it, thinking
ever'y memberL'i would( see it.
1'Tose who initenld taking thte tip as
prioposedl shiould let ime hear froni themll
at (once. VTe time is inow near at hand.
Of coure~ 1 (10 tiot conlslier the crlit
liciim of the Press amnd Uannter as at all
personalt and de itot object, to crit,ieim,
but, it, do&s seem a littie str'ange that so
much gppear should be given to this
matter. If the Press5 and1 Banner do
sires to pi'int, the correspoiidenice of the
President, I will gladly furnish hitm the
letters I have received though I did
inot keel) colpies of those I wro0t0. I am
expectintg Mr. Wilson at thte annuual

the correspIontdence.
I beg thte pardon of miy ireader's for

yes, Nita, you couldn't have struick a

dooubt but, that a great deal of the
tr'outbles andl hardships of to-day are
caused by the neglect of p)arents in the
training of their daughters as wvell as
their sons. Maty girls nowadays are
rai.Aed up to lie waited on, atnd an idea
cherished by s0omo p)arents that labor,
though not exactly degrading, is not
altogether the nicest, thing for their

avocation of life, and then into the
dwellings of our peoplo both in and out
of towns and cities, and see how many
of the present. evils, the failures of life
and folings of unrest aro traceable to
such imperfect training. "Train up a

contains the names of al, her.dear old

mon who leit theitOwives and dear little

to be the rights of their country. The
bodies o: many of this numbei,are now
mingled w(th the earth of distant, lands,
and now we can but meet and cherish
these sweet memories. Quite a s -dniess
struck our heart, as we stood near tie
rock that contained the name of ou1r
dear old father. The 1on1u11lent, was
beartifully decorated with flower.- and
evergreens. Some sweet songs of a
doleful naturo were sung, ai quite iln
appropriate prayer, wits ofTered by Rev.
E. P1. MeClintock.
We have had someic light. showers, but
not enough to bring up1) the crops to a
