The man who runs the local end of a
newspaper learns in due season that
he must not expect even briefly expressed thanks for any of the pleasant
things he may say about the people,
but he knows to a moral certainty that;
the slightest error will call malediction upon his head. He may give a
man a complimentary notice hundreds
of times and never hear of it, but let
bim just hint at che shortcomings of
the same man he will make a life-long
enemy.   Is it fare?
.Eugene Burton, a flfteen-year-old
son ot Norman Burton, living near
Dover, met with a serious accidenton
Friday last. He was driving a team
drawing a large oak log two feet in
diameter and twenty feet long. The
dray and lojf overturned upon his left
foot, at the ankle, and the whole
length of the log passed over it. crushing and scraping it until it appeared a
mass of pulp and broken bones. Dr.
J, A. Eeeder was called and took out
some of the shattered bones, fitted the
remaining ones, dressed it and expects
to save the foot and make a fairly serviceable member of ic. At present it
is doing as well as can be expected.
An accident occurred at the home
of Charles Calkins Sunday morning
which might have resulted far more
seriously, Charles was sitting on a
sofa and after having lighted a cigar;
put a burning match into- the cuspidor. It happened thab this receptacle
was just underneath the heavy fringe
on the couch, which having caught
flre, almost instantaneously the room
was ablaze, burning couch, curtains
and carpets to a considerable extent.
Seeing tbe danger he grabbed the
couch and in getting it out of the
house, burned both hands badly.
Prompt attention saved the house
without calling out the flre department.
A mau may "know how to accomplish
some admirable scheme, but if he does
not possess the proper amount of confidence and courage, that idea will
stagnate. Confidence is one of the
most desirable qualities that a man
can possess. An over-abundance of it
is reason for congratulation rather
than the opposite. Many of the successful ideas in life come to us secondhand. The originator of them lacks
the confidence to materialize the same
and in a moment of discouragement
reveals his pet idea to some one who
does possess sufficient confidence to
push it to success and to reap tbe rewards. A man may possess so much
confidence in himself as co be distasteful to- his friends, and yet; when his
rapid strides oo success are noted, we
are willing to forgive his failing, and
to wish that this same confidence was
also an iaherent quality of our own
nature.
"Ye old time Social" given at the
pleasant and hospitable home of Mr.
and Mrs. E. M. Mussell Wednesday
evening was a complete success in
every way. The house was literally
full from cellar to garret, standing
room being at a premium. The receipts were $22, and would have been
more but from the fact that owing to
the lateness of the hour manv *yent
home without having been seryed refreshments, Mr. and Mrs. Mussell
feel they could have been even more
hospitable had there not been so large
an attendance, but we assure them
that the entire company feel that under the circumstances they did everything that could be expected, The
Guild, thru our columns, wish to express their gratefulness to Mr. and
Mrs, Mussell for their hospitality and
to Kirkbride's orchestra for the excellent music rended and to all who
helped make and carry out arrangements for the social.
