We are having a lot of sickness in our neighborhood now. J.R. Holshouser and family are all sick with pneumonia, but are improving.
Mrs. W. T. Howell has been very sick but is better now.
We would be glad for Saw and Dandy to come over and see our school, (we do not go to school much ourselves) and we think you can learn something new. We have several new studies; first dancing, fighting, spelling and expelling and several others we are told. Initiating has been stopped by the boss, we are informed.
T. A. P. Roseman has been sick for two weeks but is out again, we are glad to say.
Dandy don't you think it would be a good solution of the compulsory educational plan to make every negro go to school from 6 to 21, extend the grandfather clause to A. D. 2019 and close up some of those playhouses, or so-called money schools?
We learn that T. A. P. Roseman has decided to sell out his stock in his store and close by March 1st. His store is very handy and we regret to learn that he is going to stop.
