When Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Monfort, of Lytle, determined to celebrate their golden wedding and began to summon back the guests who were present on that happy occasion they wrote down the name of Mrs. Elizabeth Wharton, of Waynesville, and stopped to think - but the list ended there for she was the only one who had not gone beyond their call. But they filled up the list with the names of younger friends and the golden wedding went on as merry as the first. Mr. E. E. Stephens to whom we have referred several times as an energetic and successful teacher who has been of much service to the public schools of the county by advocating and adopting modern methods in the school room, has just had the high compliment paid him of being offered the Valley school the fourth time in succession. There is a little handful of teachers in the county schools who have determined to make their mark in the world and they will do it. He is one of them. Mrs. Avary Needles, wife of the ex-postmaster of Waynesville, started to go to Dayton the other day with her daughter and while driving along the public road near Clio stuck fast in the mud. This sounds too much like the fairy tales the old residenters tell of the good times half a century ago when they hauled their pork and flour to Cincinnati and had grand times prying their conastooga wagons out of the mud and drinking wrinkled home whiskey at the four mile house. The Clio people should put a new bottom in that road, the old one seems to be about gone. |
