Man would accomplish very little in this world U

just for the necessities of life—they never think of
the future or even try to provide for their own com-
fort, when oid age shall at last cut off their earning
power, as it surely will.

Caldwell Fishing Club.
The members of the Caldwell
Fishing Club met in the court
house Tuesday morning and de-
cided to order o lot of bream for
their big lake out in the sand
hills. The dum has been com-
pleted for about a year and the
water now covers about four
acres of ground, but when the
pond Í9 tilled up after a few big
rains, when they come, it is es-
timnted that the water will cover
about thirty acres. When full
the depth of the lake will bo fif-
teen or twenty feet in the deep-
est places. It is feed by never
failing sand hill springs and will
always have plenty of fresh
water in whioh the fish ought to
thrive.

Millinery at Fa-
Monday was the regular mar-
ket and sales day and as the big
rain falling Saturday left the
ground too wet in most places
for plowing, there was a big
crowd in town and about the usu-
al number of horses and mules
for sale or exchange. However
there was not a great deal ot'
business done in the way of trad-
ing stock.

Sunday School Picnic
The members/of the Junior
Epworth League of the Metho-
dist church and some invited
guests, making about forty in
all, bad a picnic in Banty Hart-
graves' pasture Saturday, aid
all had an enjoyable time till the
rain came. Most of the crowd
went in wagons and floats, and
the horses were turned loose to
graze out there. When the rain
was seen approaching and the
crowd began getting ready to re-
turn, it was discovered that
three of the horses had escaped
arid returned to town. This
necessitated a wait till the horses
could be sent for and brought
back. Hy this time the rain
was coming dowsi in torrents
and in the lauguage of one of
the attendants, "the crowd got
as wet as fish." Except for the
rain, the affair was a very pleas-
ant one.
