I want to encourage all the gossipers and scandal-mongers to concentrate on Dula. It makes no difference to me what you say good or evil, praise or censure. For the Lord s sake sav something! And don't ever forget that Dula lives in" Lenoir, N. C. and makes a good living filing glasses ; that he is prepared in every way to follow his chosen profession, and that good work costs more than shoddv. Sav something, and in saying it remember that the neighbor who hears you say it has your meas ure and knows how to measure your corn in his own bushel. Say something against me if you wish, but remember ii" vou make a practice of it your neighbors all will have vour number, and while talking about me some other folks will probably get a rest that they may or may not deserve. And in the final analysis the truth alone stands. I will be in my office in Lenoir, N. C, from Feb. 26th till March 5, excepting March 3rd (next Thursday), when I will be at Granite Falls, N. C.
