dates and got the old-linen or the]
old Ring just about scared into da
fits, but the final count at vol
means that Parmele is still on the
map with a low tax rate and plenty
of rain. The mayor's office is a big
job with one dollar a month salary
and about $40 worth of cussin'. John
Roebuck got his share of the Hissin'
but somehow when he went mtn nf
fice the town was in debt and now
the roads are in the best condition
they ever were and there is a nice
surplus of cash in the bank. So,
after all the fireworks, the people
reelected him by an overwhelming
majority. J. W. Grimes, G. M. Car
gile and L. C Crisp are the cos
missioners and Jesse Manning
cop. Now watch Parmele grow.
Mrs. J. T. WUdman is in Payette-1
ville visiting her daughters, who]
are teaching school there.
Last Sunday we went to Rober
sonville and heard a better sermon
than common on such occasions, and.
incidentally, took a good look at
the graduating class. That class
about the finest we ever looked on. I
The girls are beautiful and the boys I
are fine looking, and, all in all. they |
are above the average for intelli
gence and everything that goes to|
make mothers proud of them.
Rev. Shoe is trying to make a
good Baptist of Rev. J. T. Wildman
Next Sunday, while Mr. Shoe is in
New Orleans, Mr. WUdman will
preach in the Baptist church at
Hamilton.
George James says it works hi
mighty hard to carry two mail
routes. But I guess if they pay him
hard it is all right At any rale.
we have not heard of him wanting
to resign.
