Greensboro Jottings

Mrs. Smith is quite ill with slow fever.
There has been a great deal of moving about here, some leaving our neighborhood and
others coming in to take their place.
Mr. Stover from the Cream Level country, a good man, we think, and a valuable
acquisiton to our county, is our neighbor.
Our school is doing well under the management of Prof. J. M. Ford.
Farmers are beginning to complain of being behind with work.
The weather is too bad for visiting. He that is at home must stay at home and he that
is abroad must stay abroad. See.
Edgar Finley did manage to get home from McKinney where he has just completed a
business course in the McKinney Business College.
Ross Parker is attending the same school.
Gus Dryer and Green Coltharp are going into the saw mill business. Some of our farmers
are going pretty largely into the truck business. Others are quitting cotton to raise sugar
cane. Still others are raising "cain" and not much else.
Ben Fitzgerald has lost considerble stock by freezing. We have had some cold weather
sure enough.
A Reader.
