WILKIN S VILLE [* nt Wilkinsville, Nov. 24. Rev. T. F. ^ Boozer of Gaffney has been engaged ?e to teach the McCullough school down in the fork of Pacolet and Broad rivers this season. Mr. Boozer is a u1 teacher of several years experience 4 and is well qualified to discharge the duties he assumes. This school bolongs to the 25th school district. We have had several days of right i severe cold weather and most of tbo ' work done by people is getting wood, naking fires and sitting by them. Mrs. F. A. Goforth has been in a f0 low state of health for quite a while nc Ind seems to improve slowly il any It all. She is a daughter of the late Thomas Scott and a most excellent B Christian lady. Mr. Charlie Bennett and his father >f .Jonesville hauled a load of their N blunder last week to their new homo Ct n York county whither they expect to g, live next year. They struck generally ? rood roads hut an intensely cold spell >f weather in which to make this trip. tC Hog killing time is now on hand ind some fine porkers have been kill- tt d during Che fine spell of weather. I Most of our people have hogs to kill, H nut unfortunately there is not enough H for a year's supply of meat. This, I however, we trust will not he the ease I much longer as people will turn th? ir | uieniion more to nog raising 111 the future. It is a very bad something that lias no good at all in it.

Mrs. Charlie A. Sparks and c! Iren, Archie, Herbert, Charles and Horace with Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Sparks, all of Gaffney, came down last Saturday in their fine automobile a no spent a day and nignt with r< natives in this section. I am much pleased with the high (but unmerited) compliment paid me by Hrother "Smike" of New Hope. Such comforting words come to us as an inspiration and nerve us to higher and more determined efforts to "make good.*' Thank you, good brother; may you never have reason to regret Dur meeting and acquaintance with each other. Hut let me assure you that I lay no claim to the merits you so lavishly bestow upon me. Yet I am glad of any good impressions my lite and writing may have made upon you. Life at its longest is far too I short for us to fulfill our duty to our I fellow man, or do what we would like I to do.
