Mr. Buck Polk has just built him a mee roomy house to live an. Mr. n. v. Cook made a visit re cently to the old homstead of his youthful days. We have expected to see a letter in the Times from him describing the impressions ne received from living over again the life of his boyhood experiences. We hope he will do this yet.

Mr. Henry Pope will begin erecting a ten-room house in a few weeks. Mr. J. C. Klutti asked te to say something more about our ' public roads, but I don't think I shall, ex cept to gay that he think if they are not going to cover up the stones, bet ter throw them out. Loose, atones in the road are a perfect naiaaaee and a constant menace, especially to those who are compelled to travel in an old automobile. We, who are able to choose between a two hoarse wagon, steel tired buggy or ox cart as a means of locomotion don't notice such small impediments as stones .in the road, or even a few rocks. But it is a fact that we think too little afamt the "welfare of our citv friends, and leave them to come and go the best they can. This disregard of ur city cous in's happiness is a species of selfish ness on our part, and we ought not allow it to take root and grow until ' we ham become alienated from those who would identify themselves with every worthy project of the country men. For our part we wish they would qnit resoluting and howling about low priced cotton, If you can't sell eot ton at the present prices then don't do it just roll it in the shed, or bet ter still, let it lie in the seed. Go and borrow the money, you can do it, and pay your bills, and keep your cotton , at home until somebody else would ., like to have it. - Mr. Tom Measamer, son of Mr. Jno.
