LETTER FROM FAYETTE
VILLE.
Dear Editor:
A month has pass
ed since I troubled you before,
by writting a short letter, which
you published.
And during that time one of
my old schoolmates has appeared
on the battle ground, and so far
as I can learn he is doing very
well with his studies.
I would like to see Woodruff
County and espicially my home,
repersented here to her fullest
capacity.
A person needs to know two
things in auy trade or profession
he inters.
These are the, “principles and
taws, ’relating to his trade or pro
fession which have been noticed, j
studied by men who gave it a life
study.
Then when he has learned the
laws and principles; he must
know how to put them in use be
fore he can accomplish anything
of note.
Of course, there are men, who
nave accomplished great things
without knowing-much about all
the laws pertaining to his work,
but how much more they could
have easily done if they had been
traiued in their work.
I have heard several boys say,
they are not able to goj off to
school, although, they would like j
to'go the best in the world. If j
they would only set their heads j
and stand by tkeir resolutions,
I think they could get through
someway. Hopeing this will move
some one. I remain,
Grover MeCrory. |
Earle Crail is talking of visit
ing Genoa, Ark. Christmas.
W. H. Knowlton and family
left for Anson, Tex. May God’s
smiles go with them.
Two of McCrory’s most charm
ing little ladies visited the News
Saturday. They report quite a
nice time.
We have a new devil at the
printing office now. He is a good
one too. Luther Jones is his
name. He has worked for the
News a short time at spare mo
ments, as he is going to school
an d judging from the rapidity
with which he has learned under
the adverse circumstances, be
will in a few years be manager of
the New York Sun.
On last Sunday, quite a num
ber of McCrory’s best citizens
were at the depot to welcome
and greet Mr. and Mrs. Tom
Burkett back to Woodruff Co.
We don’t remember of any one
ever receiving a more enthusi
astic welcome than that received
by Mr. and Mrs. Tom Burkett,
we hope everything will be satis
factory in order that they may
remain in our midst. We waut
all the good people we can get.
We understand that on last
Sunday two of our brightest
young men were flying their
kites in and about DeView. Boys
for your mothers’ sake, be gen
tlemen. No one can fathom the
anguish caused by such an epi
sode to the mothers’ wounded
hearts. Boys, be men. Add com
fort, suushine and joy to your
mothers’lives in their declining
days rather than gloom, regrets
and dispair. Ask this question,
will this act please or grieve my
mother and act accordingly.
W. H. Wood came to the News
office Monday and informed us
that on last Sunday they wor
shipped for the last time per
haps in the Christian Church,
of which he was the chief pro
moter. This church located in
DeView is the only building in
Woodruff Co. for the Christian
Church. On Sunday night, a
farewell meeting was held at the
home of Mr. Woods by the
good people of DeView After
a love feast, the congregation was
dismissed by a very appropriate
prayer offered by Bro. Johns.
On Tuesday, Bro. Woods and his
family said adieu to Woodruff
Co. They intend making Anson,
Jones Co. Tex., their future
home. We regret to loose this
estimable family and commend
them to the people of Anson.
