A number of citizens had al
ready improved the sanitary con
dition of their homes before the
0
county campaign started, they
are the following:
T. A. Jeffries,
J. H. Crossett,
])r. L. A. Jelks,
F. Lewis.
Some of these however have
made further improvement since
the work started.
Intelligent prople are rapidly
learning that a few pennies spent
for sanitary improvements will
save many dollars in doctor’s
bills.
It costs less to stay well than
it does to get well.
Miss Pauline McFall is home
from a week’s visit to her friend
Mrs. Frank Angelo in Cotton
Plant.
Mrs. Lillian Cooper and daugh
ter, May, arrived Thursday from
Dallas, Texas, for a visit to her
father, Col. H. B. Gray.
“The man who does not give his
fullest co-operation to his country
in this hour, will lie unhappy.” —
Woodrow Wilson, President of
the United States.
ONE VIRTUE OF BOOKS.
“What if a book is dull ?” inquires
Samuel McChord Crothers in one of
the monthly magazines. “It can’t
follow you about. It can’t button
hole you and say: ‘One word more.’
When you shut up a book it stays
shut.” But not Doctor Crothers’
books. His epigram suggests a new
test for the books on your shelf.
Which ones stay shut—which ones
call out, “Bead me?” It is not the
loudest books one hears best; loud
spoken books defeat their purpose if
they deafen you till you can’t hear
yourself think. Thomas Carlyle is,
for us, one of those thunderers.
Quiet voices reach the ear better;
undertone voices like Charles
Lamb’s. But books do know their
place, and sometimes that’s a big re
lief.—Collier’s Weekly.
A MISNOMER.
“How much money has my hus
band in this bank ?”
“I cannot tell you that, madam.”
“The idea! Aren’t vou the tell
er?”
LATE.
Young Wife—What is your hus
band’s average income, Mrs. Jack
son?
Old Wife—Oh, about midnight.
POWERFUL MIND.
“So Mrs. BrPwn has a mind oi
her own?”
“I should say she has. And you
ought to see her use it.”
ENOUGH.
Coach—W1 At that squad needs is
life.
Fresh—Aw, no, thirty days is
enough.—Widow.
_
PESSIMISTIC.
Howell—Have you ever been in
the war zone ?
Powell—Every married man is in
the war. zone.
RUSSIAN CONVALESCENTS.
One of the always novel sights of
Petrograd and Moscow these days is
that of the volunteer nurses, each
with her flock of ten or a dozen con
valescent soldiers shuffling along the
Nevsky or the Neva wall, going to
the movies or staring wide-eyed at
the pictures in the Tretiakoff gal
lery or the Hermitage. You always
bonder what they are saying, these
lumbering peasant boys who have j
never, perhaps, been away from their
distant villages, and their depmre
little chaperons who have not in
frequently lived the carefully guard
ed lives of young ladies of society !
until the war gave them their red
cross and nunlike headdress and a
chance to wander about town like
a sort of Harun-al-Rashid.—Arthur !
Ruhl, in Collier’s Weekly.
UNDECIDED.
“Is your husband going south
with you?”
“I haven’t decided whether to ask
him or not.”
A
ANOTHER SUBJECT.
“Is it true that thev are
tax contracts made by peopfe ^
them CaUSe th^ ^edn’t ^
th“Why should they tar a thlngllk(
Isn t it a minor privilege ?”
WELL NAMED.
“What’s your dog’s name, sounvP
“Ginger.” y
“Does Ginger bite ?”
“Naw! Ginger snaps.”
ECONOMIES.
“What’s your idea of economy?”
“Saving two dollars on cigars so
that your wife can spend it on a li.
cense for a pet dog.”
THE REASON.
“Why is not grammar an exact
science ?”
“Because it is dependent on its
moods.”
