Dear Editor: Will you permit
a little girl eleven years old to en
ter your circle? My papa takes
the Herald and I thought I would
write as I am a Tennessee girl.
It is dry here and everything
in the gardens and meadows are
very short, but the corn looks
very well for dry weather.

Mr. Editor Herald: As I have
been silent for quite a while
I thought I would jot down a few
lines from here this week.
The weather is fine and crops
look well arid everything seems
to be in a flourishing condition.
Health is good with very few
exceptions.
Rev. J. P: White has been sick
but is improving. He was unable
to fill his appointment at Mt.
Pleasant the 2nd Sunday, but
hopes to be there at his next reg
ular appointment to discuss the
same subject as announced for
last 2nd Sunday.
Hello, Wesley Lansf ord, I was
glad to hear from you through
the Herald. Write again and
mention your papa and mama
and the rest of the folks; tel
them all to write.
I like to hear from all my old
friends and schoolmates, and
there is no better way than
through the Herald as we can
write to so many at once and
this is to all my old schoolmates.
Though we be scattered all over
the United States I love the mem
ory of you all and have often
thought I would be glad if we
could have, a reunion and al
meet at old Shipley like we have
in days gone by and strike hands
i with each other and talk over
the things that have come up in
our pathway since we have met
with the great responsibilities of
life, what a meeting that would
, be. I now have in mind many
. whose names 1 would like to men
tion but space will not permit just
now. but I trust you will remem
ber me when you read my name.
I am still at the same old stand
and I go there most every Sun
dav. but it may be that we wil
not meet again on earth, but if
not, when life is over and we
; cease to wander, I trust we shall
meet just over yonder.

Of all sad words of tongue or pen
The saddest are these it might have been
1 might have been a writer but
I'm not, but I'm going to try to
write a few lines to the Herald
again as I have been requested to
by some of my friend3.
Hello, Dodd City, Texas, I re
ceived your letter 0. k. and was
glad, indeed, to hear from you.
I appreciate the Herald for
many reasons, two of which are it
is a means ; by which we bear
from many of our friends and
relatives, other wise we would
not for I have heard from friends
who did not know where I was,
and one other reason is it has in
structive and religious letters in
it. . !?:-v:
Come, one and all, and write
to our paper and sign your full
name. '
Friends, I'm so I can do light
work and I tell you its fine and
feels good to be out again after
9 months laying on your back
for I could not lay on either side
and I believe it is through some
of the good religious people's
prayers that I'm living today, of
one who is in Heaven my father.
My. Christian Herald readers,
one and all, I earnestly ask an
interest in your prayers for me
and mine that we may go forth
and do our duty and be men and
women, who, when pur life's
work is over that we can say all
is well. Heaven means a great
deal to me as I have a father,
mother and brother there.
My friends, did you ever stop
to think what a privilege we had
of serving the great being who
stands out on the brow of noth
ine and holds the wealth of this
world in his hand and rules the
universe. :"
The weather is fine here, at
present and crops look well and
evervone seems to be working.
M. B. W. of Route 4, write and
tell us the news.
I want to congratulate Cooke-
ville on her city officials for I am
personally acquainted with the
most of them and believe them
to be upright men. ;
I want to tell the Herald of a
little joke I heard since I "came
out here. A northwestern farmer
hired a city chap to help in hay
ing, the chap was on the stack
and the thought struck him how
was he to get down and he asked
the farmer as to how he would
get down, the farmer told him to
shut his eyes and walk around a
while you can guess the rest.
