W. 0. W. Friends Indeed
Mr. B. Burdine, living near
Cross Roads church, whosechild
had been sick for more than a
month and died last week, has
been the recipient of nuch kind
ness and sympathy from friends,
as was shown in a practical way
on Monday and Tuesday of this
week. During the sickness of
his child Mr. Burdine had gotten
badly behind with his crop. On
Saturday night in theirmeeting
at Cross Roads the W. 0. W.
camp decided to meet on Tues
day and work out the crop of
Mr. Burdine, as he was "up to
his neck" in work. , On Monday
several of his neighbors, fifteen
or twenty in number, came and
started the work. Tuesday
morning eleven plows began to
run and twenty-six hoe hands
began hoeing.-mostly Woodment
and their families. The outlook
at dinner Tuesday was bright
with prospects that the crop of
Mr. Buidine would be free from
grass at sunset of the day.
Such acts of kindness show
the right spirit, and brings to
light the great principle of the
brotherhood ,.of man, which
should be commended.
