'ditar The Star: j This Is to Inform all and -undry of your host of readers that de pth: wind and weather *Polkvill2, Palm rree in township No. 8, In Cl ' land, and classic and celebrated Hollis hi the shadow of the renown id eminence known as Cherry Mountain, continue to make nlatory Part of these annals are in the past, other features are In the present; while still other events are in the prospective future. . , To begin with the festivU.es of Polkville, at auditorium of the riigh school building, on the night of De cember 2, a box supper and a beau ty show were staged, despite tne borean blasts that roared and the stinging cold weather that prevail ed. The receipts of the evening rf.x $84, while Miss Ruth Smith was an easy winner for the gift of pul chritude over a bevy of radiant damsels. At any evening exerc'se at martial Polkville, the lamps shine over fair women and brave men, while Joy is unconflned. Treating of present features, a teachers’ training school is in ses sion at Palm Tree church, with Revs. Evans, Hoyle and Me,Farland as instructors. All are master work men Is their calling, and the ses sion promises full attendance ard: gratifying results. The writer was not at the festal occasion at Polkville, because he nad no shoes and it was*too cold to risk exposure barefoot. But he deposes without being sworn that Miss Rrth j was a worthy winner of the h >n ors. But as to whether she is re lated to “The Happy Warrior ’ that posed as the plumed and panoplied knight that paraded as the chief tain of Tammany Hall and was inglorlously defeated in 1928, your writer is not a competent witness. He Is, however, enrolled in the kindergarten class at Palm Tree by reason of a local preacher that furnished him a pair of half part twelve shoes which are a perfect fit. m ior iesti vines at Hollis, pejpl? will remember tills place as t ie creation of the late J. P. D With row, a versatile genius that func tioned as a good farmer, a wonder as a merchant, a Sunday school worker, a patron of festal occasions and a pillar of Big Spring Baptists churcl* While not an adept st drawing the bow over the string or a fiddle and eliciting soothing and harmonious cadences, he enjov ed the music of the instrument that immortalized Bob and Alf Taylor; as well as the banjoseph, the guitar and the mandolin. As he has pass ed on to fields elysian, his fallen mantle rests upon the shoulders of his son. Henry Grady Withrow, who carries on the work so nobly be gun. So, on the night of Decemoer 7, the musical clans are to gather at auditorium of Hollis high school, and while it is of spacious dimen sions, the feet of visitors will stick out of the windows. And it will be a real fiddlers' convention. The violinist that rocks, reels, and at titudinizes will not be tolerated, rut upon his appearance as a “virtuoso” will be cast Into outer darkness oy the official bouncer, where mere ir beating, whaling and smashing of teeth. Under certain limitations, the writer will be permitted to func tion. His fiddle must be muted to suppress the tone and he must si', between a man who warbies upon a base drum and another who war bles upon a snare drum. So far as his contribution to gayety of na tions is roncerned, it will be more of a suppression than execution, ile is part of the Polkville, Sunday school orchestra, but plays with n.s violin muted, and the choir .•’jars a vocal accompaniment that would have caused the substantial walls of Jericho to tumble. Both victims and violinists are to be Interdicted We want fiddles and fiddlers. In stead of “rendering numbers,” the performers will play tunes. We want old favorites like "Dixie,” “Maggie,” “Arkansaw Traveller," “Red Wing” and “Silver Threads Among the Gold.” No dead heads except Judges and musicians, but all must pay at the door.—Corn Cracker.

After supper many of those pres ent lingered around for several hours by the big log heap fixe and J conversed about fox hunting i nd j other things. After dark came on, a fox chase was ensued. Some of .hose j who followed the chase and who,} suspectedly were a little short wind-: cd by taking on too much 'possum and "tater," and by the sharp cold wind, returned to the big log heap fire., while others followed the chase and reported a good run.
