A A AAA A A A A itA V JONESVILLE JONESVILLE, Dec. 16.?There in be no complaint at the weather lan for he is giving us the finest reather that can be afforded and lere can be no good excuse for anyne to complain either of the weather r the fine crops and good prices. It as been a bumper year for all South 'arolina and then Woodrow Wilson 5 managing the affairs of the gener1 government up at Washington. As ; has never been" so well done it is eally a year of jubilee, but I fear ur people do not realize it as they hould. Everything is high and nearer equal; what we have to sell in this ountry we get pood prices for, and f course we may expect to pay the ther fellow pretty high for what wo ave to buy. I bough* a drove hog the other day >nd paid $42.25 for it. I have seen he time when I could almost buy "a Irove of hogs for that much money. paid forty cents a dozen for egg> oday and have seen the time that I ould buy five dozen for forty cents, iut I blame my hens for this, for hey have joined the strike and won't ay an egg for Thanksgiving, a wedling of Christmas either. I was so glad to see a letter from /ox in The Times last week, would ike to hear from him oftener. Some fellow wrote a letter to Sana Claus in The Times last week and aid he wanted Santa to bring him a fife but he was too shamed faced, imid or bashful to sign his name. Veil, that sort of fellow will never ret a wife; he will have to come cross and tell his name and call limself "Moxy" or something that Santa will understand. ? I.ast Saturday was one of those dg days for Jonesville, ninety bales f cotton went on the market at 13 -4 cents, which means about fiftyiirht hundred went into the farmers lockets in this community. The merhants had a pood trade and pot a rood part of the money that is floatnp around. Rev. J. A. Cook, the new Methodist ninister, preached for the Jonesville ircuit at the Methodist church Sunlay morninp. He preached a pood ermon and made a fine impression m his conprepation. Bro. Cook has lot moved to Jonesville yet but will nove this week. Rev. W. H. Ariail, he retirinp minister, will vacate the larsonape this week and will po to lis new work at Black Swamp cir:uit. The parsonape on that circuit si at-Clarnett, a small Seaboard railroad, about forty mileA 'rom Savannah. Mr. J. Wt Bates, who has been ve-y iick and went to Columbia for trcitnent, has returned and is improving. Dr. H. T. Hames and Mrs. Han?>s vent to Chester last Saturday to itend the funeral of one of lames' sisters. The time for Christmas gifts or (resents is here. I have already reeived one from Chicago. The giving if Christmas presents originated at he birth of our Savior when the wise nen from the East came and brought rifts of frankincense and myrrh and (resented them to Mary the mother if the young child Jesus and giving f presents has been practiced ever ince. This is right and proper hut he modern w.'.y of celebrating the lirth of Christ is a departure from he original and to my mind is a sin. I think I can see the forecast of vedding bells in our town. Mr. W. C. Johnson is the champion iuk r?i?cr in uonesviiie. Me butchred three hogs the other day of his wn raising, 13 months old, that weighed 475-489-505 respectively.
