•' BURTON SPRINGS.'
The birthday dinner of Aunt
Polly McDaniel at her home Jan. 25
was enjoyed by All present. The
invitations were mostly to the
aged . Some of them had known
her a long time ago back in Ten-
nessee. On the above date, as they
began to gather in, those dear fa-
thers and mothers as they meet
to mix and mingle their voices to-
gether, brought great pleasure and
joy to our heart. Aa we listened at
them tell about war times, the tri-
als some of them had Undergone in
rearing large families. Yes, we
heard them tell about, the first
lamps they e\er used, small tin
, ones, the tallow candle, how they
used to moufd them and how they
would walk four or five miles to
Sunday school, preaching, carrying
the baby. No baby carriageSroad
no go carts In those* days. The
dpgs .would stay at home if the men
did not have them off in the woods
hunting. The men would give log
rollings and and the women quilt-
ings. many more things we Could
write but time and Bpace forbids.
In the closing words we must say
the dinner was excellent. Some
three and twenty enjoyed its boun-
ties, the time for parting arrived
the good byes were said and* each
wended his way homeward. I am
sure each felt tp his heart that it
$fa£ gbod to have been there. We
shall never forget Aunt Polly’s
76th birthday., May she live to
enjoy others is the wishes of her
friends and neighbors.
* The school is small but moving
on ‘nicely. Sunday school’Sunday. ;
Hope every one will take part in .
the Sunday school work here.

The thriving town of Vega is
setting an example which Amarillo
should follow. Two fill cars of
trees have been receives and will
be .used to make beautiful and
more comfortable the matin streets
of that place. Let us jlo. likewise

few got to brothers at sunset. Found
brother and father well. We
feasted on razor back and collards
and potatoes and lots of things
which we do not get in Texas. On
the morning of the 27th we went
to the river bottom to cut a bee
tree, found the tree and it was only
a common sweet gum. We got
busy and in four hours landed her
in a sleugh of water 12 feet deep
and did not get a drop of honey.
She sunk like a rock. We dia not
intend to do that but it broke
across on us and the stump meas-
ured six feet across the top but it
was not the biggest tree in the
bottom. So went home and the
next day started for some fish.
We took our guns and dogs and
in going up the bottom the dogs
treed in a sleugh c£ shallow water
and we went to them in breakneck
speed and they had a cypress log
full of catfish. We got 68 pounds
and left some for thp other fellow.
Now if any one disputes this 1 can
prove it by Billie Smith. So we
got a muscadine vine and strung
them and wens home and we sure
did enjoy several meals of fish.
On the 7th we boarded the Cotton
to visit Mrs. Dodson for a
days, she being a very old friend.
They went to the new church and
graveyard on Saturday evening and
she took suddenly sick that night
and was never able to be up again.
Friends, children and physician
did all they could, but there was a
mightier power than ours.
She leaves a husband, two sons
and two daughters to mourn her
loss and a host of friends too for
every one who knew her loved her.

Bright’s Disease is more dreaded by
physicians than any of the serious dis-
orders with which they have to deal be-
cause of its insidious and malignant
character. If prompt actiqn were taken
when headaches, urinary disorders, di-
gestive troubles first appear, much suf-
fering and sorrow would be averted.
