We know of no business in this town that would go to tho wall If It could not receive its mall on Sundays, yet arc some of them that might be very much Inconvenienced such circumstances. It so happens that the schedules of the trains for Green- ville are such that tho most mail of the day gets here just at tho time everybody should at Sunday School or on their way there. Many people hero will home from the services to read their newspapers and to loOK over their business letters.

If the mall from the morning train from the west did not reach town later on In the day, or if it were not distributed until after the morn lug preaching hour, we believe that tho church attendance would be very much increased and that the public, would very much the minor. Then, too, tho convenience of the employees of tho post office and their to present at tho religious exercises of tho day ought to considered. The public, might remember tho force does not have to distribute this mall on Sunday, that it Is done only as a convenience to tho patrons of tho office. In fact.

This is a growing town, and every one who comes here is impressed with this fact, but it will never reach capacity until we get a live community Of What ll called and It Is just because of a lack of this very same thing that many Hies in this state are so backward today. People ought to take a pride in their homo town. If they cannot, then they should either go to work to make it so that they can feel a pride in it, or else get out of it and go where they can feel a pride in tho town where they live.

And, if tho people of the town will get together and pull Greenville, and actually start something to going about here, one fear but that there will be a leader, and n leader who will know his business. Many good movements could be start ed here right now that would work out for the good of the town If only the proper spirit were manifested In tho matter.
