Richard and Mrs. Richard and all of ' the little Richards wore invited to 1 take supper and enjoy .a musical at 1 the heme of Mr. Willie Yancqy, and ! of course r.'ichard and Miys Richard |' went, Mrs. Richard not feeling good, I did not attend. After supper We were.! entertained by tils Allensvillc string j 1 band, composed of Charlie Slaughter, Glover Slaughter. Jeff and Tinnie O'Briant. They made some rare mu- < sic, such' as they used to have^ forty" 1 years ago *in Shake Rag anil such * men as Thad Jones and Richard were < in attendance. And while I never was : mucH on a dance, to listen to -.such 1 music does seem to make one's joints get a little loose and causes Mm to : think^gf hie-younger days and those bcautifuf girls he -used to meet, many or wnom nave already -pone to an-1 worn. Ricahrd, when he listen? to ; such music as this and thinks of those gone on before and we, who - * must soon follow, whether tW; music of Heaven will be more charming or 1 the girls more beautiful than those , we have seen here. The preachers ( tell us we will know no difference between men and women when we get , to Heaven, but it will just be one j happy band of people, but Ric'rJard don't know about this, 33 it "always s takes both sex here to run a big j meeting or tic anything worth" while. t But the preachers can make their claim and Richard will make his for 9 neitter .knows just how it will be, -j Mr. Yancey is'^preparing to leave .us and perhaps go back to Ohio to j work in the rubber trade. * j - " ~~Y -It was sad luck, to Mr. Gus Slaugh- j, tor to get his <^ar stolen at the fair. But . that is all that Richard can see n in these fairs?to gather together a . lot of slirewd rogues and lewd wo? men to rob the unsuspecting hard 0 working farmer of- his money and. ti the young men of their morals. It is true it may pay the managers of the fair but it most certainly takes more t money from the Counfy than it a brings in, and ho doubt leaves a train of diseases which ^tfcill pay the doc? tors for years to come, but 'so far as -j tils nublic. is concerned I feel thev are always the loser.
