NOEL WEEKLY
BUDGET!
To The Patrons Of The School.
Our school will open next Mon-
day, Sept. 12. but the first part
will be subscription. The free
school will begin two weekslater.
The trustees thought.it best to
postpone the free school two
weeks for the benefit of those
who had cotton to pick, but there
are some who have no cotton to
pick that want to begin school
now, so the'school will open Sept.
12, and the free school two weeks
later.
I would like to see as many as
can, enter the first day. I would
be glad to see the school full
from the beginning. And I want
to call the attention to the fact
that the school books we have to-
day are graded and each lesson
to be learned depends upon the
previous lessons and if’a child
losses a few weeks or a month at
been overhauled and is in good
shape for the coming season.

Burglars At Wilmer.

mer was burglarized last Thurs-

back window and took three
watches, $20 incash and several
knives and pistols. Mr. Johnson’s
son and one of the clerks were
sleeping in a side room but were
not awakened by the intruder.

the beginning of a school it is
impossible for it to do as good
work through the remainder of
the year as other children who
started at the beginning of the
school, and it is often the case
that pupils miss the grade they
should be in and are forced to go
back in a lower grade because
they are not able to do the work
required because they have lost
time and can not get connection
with the work that has been giv-
en before. For these as well as
other reasons 1 would be very
glad indeed that you would start
every part of the machinery has your child the very first day and
let it get a fair start with other
children of its grade and keep it
in school every day, not suffer it
to miss a lesson. Then and only
then can success be assured.
Again I would call the atten-
tion of the parents to another
thing and that is be sure and
send the small children at the
opening of the school. The small
children cannot work to amount

fresh and vigorous and capable -guess Uncle Billy will have t'»
of learning a great deal at that
age. And above all they should
be started early, when the weath-
er is good and the school is not
crowded. When the winter
months set in there is so much
bad weather that the small chil-
dren cannot come, and the school
will be crowded and the teacher
cannot give as much of her time
to them as she can at the first of
the school. Every one knows
that success in anything depends
a great deal on the kind of a
start one has, so let the parents
think of this and send their small
children at tire first of the school
where it will have the very best
of advantages. I want to empha-
size this last statement and hope
that parents will consider this
fact seriously.
The school will open at 8:40,
Sept. 12, and we extend a cordial
invitation to every one to bp

give us encouragement and we
will appreciate it. We would be
exceedingly glad to have the

be glad if each one would give us
a talk on that occasion.

Belmont Often Photographed.
Among rjch Americans perhaps
none is so fond of being’ photo-
graphed as August Belmont. James
R. Keene being a close second. One
New York photographer, whose
patrons are mostly wealthy men, has
made thousands of negatives for
Mr. Bclmor‘ in the last few years.
One of the largest single orders for
prints from old negatives ever re-
ceived by this photographer came
from Mr. Belmont himself sdon af-
ter the death of his wife. It in-
cluded a good print from every neg-
ative in which Mrs. Belmont ap-
peared. The photographer never
guessed how many photographs he
had taken for Belmont till then; he
found that they numbered nearly a
thousand.
A revival has been in progress
at Liberty Baptist church this
week, considerable interest has
been manifested.' It is reported
that ten people have been arrest
ed for misconduct. It is a sham-1
that people, pretending to be lad
ies and gentlemen will attend re
ligious services and misbehave,
and they should be dealt with ti-
the extreme penalty of the law
A serious fight was reported
here last week, between two par
ties named Harry and Will. The
facts came to the ears of Consta-
ble Guion, who at once hastened
here to investigate. After dill:-
gent inquiries he learned that
Harry and Will were big hogs. ’-1
