Wood School House Community News

Athens Weekly Review

April 7

We are having more beautiful sunshine now which is very needful and which we are very thankful for, as the farmers are behind with their work due to the late rains. Some corn is peeping up, but looks very sick and some just planting corn. Some putting out fertilizer at present, planning to plant cotton in a few days; some planning to plant peas soon.

Preaching in the morning and singing in the afternoon was enjoyed at the school house Sunday.

School closed Friday. Mrs. Louis Cox was our teacher. They are now moving back home near Cox Chapel. We regret very much to give them up, being our near neighbors. Mrs. Cox was a good teacher and was loved by all her pupils.

Not very much news as there is not much visiting at present, for the women are busy in the gardens and hunting turkey nests.

We are requested to announce there will be preaching Saturday night before the fourth Sunday, the 27th at the school house. Rev. Russell Edwards will be with us; one will preach for us. Everybody come and bring someone with you and let us revive old Wood School House community as of old.

Health is very good at present as most everyone who has had whooping cough is well.
