Wbat the Peopls of Cur Neighbor Town
Are Saving and Doing.
l^ike City. .I.tnuarv ?i:?Mr It K
Coc k has removed tc Florence,where
he has a position in the mercantile
establishment of Mr J L Barrioger.
Mrs Baird, who will be remembered
as Miss Katie Lee Dickson of
Sumter, spent some days in town
last week. She was an assistant in
the Lake City High school some
^^jrears ago, and no doubt her friends
j$] "Neified to see her again.
quietly did the new rear enter
vftlt his coming was noted only by
^ the hanging up of new calendars.
This writer wishes to acknowledge
v the honor of an invitation to ba
present and make an address at
Harpers at the Farmers' Rally last
Tuesday, and it would have been
a sincere pleasure to accept the invitation,
but the press of affairs
"which could not be laid aside, prevented.
These meetings of farmers
at which topics of interest are discussed,
are helpful and indicate a
growing desire for improvement,
without which desire there can be
no real progress.
The Smith Shows which spent
last week here had a good many
'people and some good features, but
does not for a moment compare with
the Johnie J Jones's Shows which
visited us last summer.
How 1nany of us have stopped
long enough to note that the -earth quake
in Italy last week was one of
the very greatest calamities in the
"ebtire history of the world? What
a fuss did we make about the Charleston
earthquake, in which less than
a hundred lives were lost. Yet we
scarcely hear mention made of this
latest catastrophe which swept more
than two hundred thousand human
beiugs into eternity. So selfish are
we that only those thiugs that affect
us personally arrest our attention.
In our minds even the puny flood of
last summer will remain longer than
this horror which has come to our
brethren across the .?ea.

Mr G L Dickson and Miss Bertr
Hinnant were married last
j\irsday at the nome of Dr I B

for Florida and Cuba.
M: Arthur L Jones of Asheville,

Jones is much pleased with his home
in the mountains.
The General Assembly will meet
on the 12th instant and will adjourn
on February 20. We even venture
to fix the exact date of adjournment,
for we are satisfied that the full
forty pay days, and no more will be
V consumed. For six weeks the air
^vili be filled with l.oafiug, loud talk^g.time
killing and much"gassing."
The demagogue will be in his glory.

Passing of the Old Year?Neighborhood
News NotesLex
January 4:?Ttie^ new year
commences. We begin it with good
o o
; resolutions, recognizing that we can
make it a better year?this is our
peculiar privilege. The high attribute
with which mau aloue is
! endowed, the essential difference be
tween him and all other beinge,
which enables him for the futuie
both to be and to do better. For
' this reason not one of us is satisfied
1 with a look inward, a look backward.
We might have done better. Thus
Christmas witn all its beautiful cusi
touis, with all its gifts and good
cheer, has a deep religious significance.
As we step out of the old
year and into the new, we are re-,
minded of our duty to God, of our
j duty to man. In looking at the
: record we are forced to confess that
| it might have been ' better. Is this
your pain? My frieud, in the very
j sting of this pain is the germ of
happiness here and heaven hereafter.
For the future you may do better!
Greeting the new year in this
j good spirit: May all good things
, come to you?jcy, peace and a couj
tented mind, and may you learn to
love and strive for things that are
| worth while, and to rise above the
petty cares and trials of the day.
, May your eyes be opeued to the
i beautiful things about you and may
you try to share your blessings with
! the old, the poor, the lonely, the
stranger, the invalid, with anyone
for whom or to whom you may do a
kindness, doing your part, be it
great or small, to establish ''peace
on earth, good will toward men."

Tke National Idea for 1999.
The opening articles of the notable
series, "S'ories of a Great Nation,"
to appear in the National
Magazine for 1909, have awakened
widespread interest. The January
issue contains one of the most remarkable
sketches of "The Supreme
Court of the United States," written
by ex-Justice Henry B Brown. "The
Secrets of the 'Secret Service' " are
toJd by Chief John Wilkie, who has
ide a rem-?kable record in this dertment.
xnis article happens to be
e of most time^ ~ interest, in view
the controvert between the Present
and Congress over a paragraph
i> his message. The "Making of
Jncle Satn's Money" is a subject
that ir'. ?8ts every man, womau and
chii^ country, and the story
is told i.. ^ graphic, interesting way,

"The National Health" is treated in
an article by Surgeon-Gen era I Walter
Wyman, and is thoroughly interesting
and up-to-date. These articles
are in every way practical, comprehensive
and cohesive stories of our
great nation, and will not only whet
the appetite of all students of civics
and economics in school and college,
but will be of interest to each individual
of the eighty millions of people
who are stockholders iu this corporation
known as "The United
States of'America."
Vivid and picturesque is the second
of Peter MacQueen's illustrated
articles on "Roosevelt's African
Hunting Grounds." Many of the
photographs were taken by Mr MacQueen,
who has just returned from
Africa, and his sketches are highly
entertaining. The "Conservation of
a Great Nation's Resources" is the
subject of a notable article by Mr T
B Walker, who is one of the largest
individual timber land owners in the
/frriL _ n r a i
country. " 1 ne rtoiiiance 01 an v/ysster"
is another of the interesting series
011 the aristocratic American
crustacean. Stirring, timely stories
reflecting the typical American life
and times, with bits of bright verse
and articles as full as au egg of pertinent
and timelv information, make
one of the most auspicious magazines
for the beginning of the new year.
Editor Joe Chappie's inimitable
chats on "Affairs at Washington"
continue as a feature of this year's
prospectus. He reveals graphically
the perennial^side of events at the
National Capital. His descriptions
of the tariff hearings are particularly
interesting. Did you ever see the
launching of a battleship? It is al-w.? ?.?!
