Aug. 7, 1925: Miss Jewel Rupe is home on her vacation and at the same time recuperating from a slight indisposition. Mississes Ruby Fish and Bertha White, Miss Ruby from Fayetteville and Miss Bertha from New Orleans, are at home here. Emmette Miller has thrown up his position at Little Rock and is now at home here. It is reported that he will conduct the singing at religious meetings hereabouts. Mrs. W.E. Dodds was operated on for the relief of appendicitis at Pine Bluff last Saturday. The operation is said to have been successful and the lady getting along just fine. We regret very much to record the serious illness of an aged Confederate soldier and highly respected and esteemed fellow-citizen, J.W. Russell. He is at the home of his son-in-law, Sam (?) Clower, near town. Father and Mother crook have had as guest for several days Mrs. Mary Floyd of Camanche, Texas, and J.A. McWorther and family of Granberry, Texas. Mrs. Floyd is a sister of Mother Crook and Mrs. McWorther a niece of Father Crook. Victor Felley and Miss Leora McGregor were married here last Saturday eve at the Methodist parsonage by the pastor of the church, Rev. O.C. Birdwell. The groom is a school teacher and is well and favorable known in the county, while the bride is said to be a very pretty girl and has a large circle of friends, whom we feel sure will join us in wishing them the best of luck all through life. Johnny Carter, one of our home boys, has accepted and active engaged as pitcher for the Standard Lumber Co. baseball team of Pine Bluff, and Cullen Tarver, another home boy, is with the Boosters of the same city, as pitcher. We extend congratulations to the young men and may they come out stars of the first magnitude in the diamond. Due to the scarcity of rural doctors, many country people still retain their tonsils. (I love this one!) A man will go a long way to save face, and a woman will go a still longer way to powder her nose. (this one too!) Girls in fishing for a husband often fail to land him by trying to hurry the sucker into biting. (my most favorite!) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
