Our courtly officials have been building
i >me good bridges in the county in the
last few years. As an evidence of this
the recent high waters went 6ver the
tops of several of theui leaving trash,
etc. on the bridges, but the bridges
s'ood the storm nobly. The high water
last week was a severe test on bridges
and it took good ones to hold their
ground against the rushing torrents.
We have been shown an old cotton
bill that* was found by Mr. J. II. Rodger

bales were sold to a new York flrm bv
Mr. Rodger at an average price of 38c
per pound. The bales averaged 114
pounds and the amount of money paid
for them was $3,424.20. If cotton would
bring those figures now we would tell
our farmers to turn their land into cotton
fields. We might even give it a
(rial ourself.

Easter Sunday was an ideal Easter
day, the sun shone out beautiful and
br'ght and just warm enough to in
pleasant. Th iait .s were out in full
force i:i Eider attire. There were
services at all the churches, and Urge
congregations were in attendance at each
service. These services were appropriate
to the occasion and lyere highly
appreciated by those in attendance.
The First Methodist church was artistically
deco:lit?d, around the pulpit
and chancel there was a wildernesi of
palms, ferns, ti<?tly and rosea, while
trailing vines a el holly encircled the
organ, and ferns, ivey and holly were
airanged in pret ty designs in the windows
on eithei side, the whole forming a very
cheerful and pleasant eight. The past r.

Our old fiieiid Mr. .Jno. W. Willard,
formerly of Union, now of l'acolet, spent
several days in Union last week visiting
among his friends. He called in to see
us and had a pleasant chat. He said
this was his Hrst visit to Union in four
years, and ho was astonished at the
improvements that had taken plue < in
that short time. He handed us aeoupla
of dollars ?bd told us not to let him miss
a copy of Tub Timks as he could not
well do without, his favorite new.-paper.
lie said he, had been taking it ever i-ince
he could* remember aud it was now a
much better paper than it had ever been.
