Exercise^ Wednesday night by
Primary Grades. Excellent Ad
dress Thursday night by Con
gressman John H. Small.
Undoubtly, ' the best *term
known in the hiilory of Farm
ville Graded Schools closed to
day. The exercises began Wed
nesday night with a well gotten
up and splendidly rendered pro
gram by the primary grades. The
opera house, in which the ? exer
cises took place, was packed
with interested onlookers Who
atteilcd their enjoyment by fre
quent applause. The little ones
?hmv?t hy ihpir BplonHifl ni^tinn
that nothing had been left un
done towards their training.
Thursday, night the music
class rendered a few selections
after which the commencement
address was delivered by Hon. I.
H. Small, Congressman of this
diAridt. Conscious of our inabil
ity, to do the subject justice, we
shall not endeavor to give a sy
nopsis of the address.
The people of Farmville and
surrounding community are
juftly proud of our school and
sp'.ecdid showing made. The
corps of teachers, who have la
bored so zealously' for the good
of boys and girls have the grate
Thore. seem to be quite o
jealousy am6ng some business
men, a disposition to try to brenk
down tbeir adversary in order to
build themselves up on their
opponent's down fall. This petty
feclins: among rivals in business
is all wrong. The best way to
bi'ihl up a town is to stand by
every man in the place, that
docs right. Whenever a man
is doing well do not tear him
down. All residents should be
as partners, not opponents. In
all livelihoods the mora business
your rival does the more you
will do. Every business man
who treats his customer* honestly
courteously and fairly will get
his share, and the more business
that can be secured by united
efforts, the better it will bq fgr
all. a town cea$e*to?row
it begins to die, and the
people try toVJtfU:*j?ctf <
business, the more- readly v

every citizen. If a man shows
ability to prosper do not pull
back through jealousy or weigh
him down through cold indiffer

"ODD FELLOWS CELEBRATE 95 TH
ANNIVERSARY."
Last Sunday, the first Sunday
in May, Farmville Lodge No. 373
?. O. O. F? celebrated their 95th
Anniversary. A11 the members
met in their Lodge room at 10.30
A. M. and marched in a body to
the Christian church, wearing
their regalia, where the paster.
Rev. C. B. Mashburn, delivered
an able sermon.
For a time it was the idea of
the Committee to have some
visitor to deliver .the address,
and the local Minister was not
notified that the lot would fall
on him until Thursday of last
week. However he preached
one-of the greatest sermons that
we have ever heard, and those
tliul failed to attend the seivice
at. the Christian Church last Suu
day, missed a treat.
l^The Meat Lodge nt Farmville,
Smite only a liitle more than two
years old, is doing a great work,
?nd is recognized as one of the
strongest Lodges in the District.
They have a quantity of degree
work now pending, and by the
close of the year the membership
will be increased considerable.
A GOOD TOWN.
?
Here are some words from
Edward K. Graham in Harper's
Weekly that are in such good
accord with the doctriss of city
building advanced by this
.iSs1
i or the richest town,?0 thai !
people at the top can have
iugh money to stop work.
Vdo ask for wisdom enough to
know what the permanent and
progressively good things to
work for are, the civic will to
work for them and the material
prosperity to put wheels under
them to make them go.
"What we have learned is that
it is wise to work together for a
good place to live, a place both to
make a good living add to live
0 good life? good money, good
water, good streets, good schools,
good churches. A good place to
liy- is a place to invest money
and get bigger returns, and to in
vest life and get bigger returns
1 'Whatever promotes the mate
rial welfare of the larger number
of p-uple is an essential of gccd
jsevernmeut as it is of good relig
ion. Good [citizenship is not a
?f'.erce struggle in our business to
take all the other fellow has and
then endow a school and church
for him to go to tor consolation.
Big men in business are more
and more coming to discover the
|y|lueof profit sharing and co
operation between all factors,
even in business itself; and for
tunate will be that community
which extendsJo every detail of
iits economic life that same doc
trine of fraternal co-operation
which* gave us Deomcratic
government and the Christian
religion." With the city, as with
the inSfaridtad there can be' oo
prosperity worth while that 'is
not based on order, equity and
a sincere devotion to the common
good. A good town implies a
town that is rounded out equally
In all desirable phas - .
In Chicago one of the head of
a mail order house has confessed
that he has income of $1,320,000
a year, and yet he is supposed to
be at head of an institution
which is' working and soiling
goods for the benefit of the poor
man who has thought and been
made to believe he has been S&
