minis ¬ ter of the Presbyterian Church at this place addressed the assemblage in a neat little speech in which he complimented the pro- jectors ¬ for their zeal and enterprise show ed tbe advantages to be derived from thei establsihment of such an institution and commended it tos most liberal patronage by the people throughout Eastern Ken- tucky ¬ Dr Williamson was followed bv Prof Hays who

of Mr- - Samuel J Salver a student of the Academy from West Liberty which was applauded to the echo by the entire assembJtgo Mr balyer is a fluent speaker and a few more years of study and practice will find him in ths halls of Congress his voice mingling with that of such men as Carlisle Breckinridge aad Blackburn while his eloquence will recall the days of Clay Calhoun and Web- ster ¬ He is destined to make his mark upon the living issues in the pages of Eastern Kentucks history and so indelibly will his name be stamped upon the hearts of the people that time cannot efface it West Liberty may well boast of her talented speakers while she can claim Sam Salyer and when he shall return to them after a course at Hazel Green Academy he will be more mature and harder to master Ladies and Gentlemen This is not a time for memory and for tears but time when the hearts of you people should lap forth in gladness for prosperity is in our midst and bids onr country blossom as the rose There is no land however luxuriant Its vegetation however fair its flowers how- ever ¬ blue its sky though so clear and pure ¬ ly beautiful that God alone may be seen in heaven yet it has its natural impediments It seems to have been the wisdom of the in- finite ¬ God to so create the world that no spot should be entirely free from inconven iencies A fertile soil a salubrious climate will most certainly add to the comfort and wellfare of the inhabitants of any country But no people can be truly blessed nocom munity can boast of its society unless intel- ligence ¬ reigns supreme Sampson lives in Holy Writ as the strongest man physically that ever trod the earth but how does his slaying the Philistines as a blessing and benefit to man compare with the Proverbs of Solomon or the writings of any man in acred history There is a Dortion of Eastern Kentucky sad ly lacking in zeal for the promotion of learn ¬ ing and still brighter minds are not cre- ated ¬ nobler hearts beat not within the bo- som ¬ of man than throb beneath the breasts of the people of our hills In this scope of country stretching from the Big Sandy on the east to the Kentucky River on the west from the bluegrass region on the north to the Tennessee line on the south comprising in all near 20 counties the people are not particularly lacking in religion for church- es ¬ are planted in almost every neighborhood and the daily walks of our citizens bespeak their love for God The land is not want ¬ ing in riches for under our feet lie slumber ¬ ing millions of wealth and the hills are decked with forests of nnequled beauty and utility No water is so clear and spark- ling ¬ as that which ripple3 down our hills and flows across our green valleys No air so fragrant with the breath of blooming na- ture ¬ so resonant with the voice of feathered songsters warbling their Makers praise as the gentle breezes that fan the fair cheeks of our maidens and cool the hardy brows of onr bold mountaineers It is as Byron has said The land of the cedar and the pine Where the flowers ever blossom and the beams ever shine The All wise Providence has done every ¬ thing in reason to embellish our homes to ameliorate the condition of his people in this section of country and it now rests in our power to make us a learned as well as a generous and chivalrous people It affords me more than ordinary pleasure to truly state that there is one town in all these counties I would say one county but this is no county affair then I reiterate that one town in all these counties has taken the right step What is it that is giving to the citizens of Hazel Green a character for schol- arship ¬ above that of her neigboring towns What is it that is sending young men and women teacners tnrougnout tnis ana ad ¬ joining counties better fitted to discharge tbe duties of a teacher than teachers have been heretofore Ah 1 The cause is obvi ¬ ous Give honor to whom honor is due then let U6 praise the Hazel Green Academy beyond measure I do not wish to deliver a eulogy upon any one but I must say as I have read that all good things are three so you people have in your midst three men who hare done more for you your children and in fact for East ¬ ern Kentucky than any three men within the confines of our State This school-buil- d ing tbe unest this side of Lexington will fly AerfBturejsdestiBeiltobeahrightoae attract the attention and command the ap- - plause of all visitors and soon Hazel Green will be known farand near as the Athens of Eastern Kentucky Here the sons and daughters the life of every household may receive a colleginle education There is freedom in the very atmosphere and soon we can boast of our institutions of learning It behooves you one and all to stand by these three noble hearted men and also our able professor and make this school as firm as the rock of Gibralter In the vears to come when your hair is silvered bv the frost of many winters when you are nearing the flight for that upper and better as you look upon vour sons who we are informed has been assigned 1 1 T T und daughters grown to manhood and wo manhoo 4 not only in body but in mind bright fruits of your gallant labor your hearts will swll with pride and the grave will not seem such horrid place after all Then our hilis and valleys will be dotted all over with the homes of a prosperous and en lightened people The homes of a race irom wmen snail spring me uucr ui uicu to serve as models for the mighty world and be the fair beginning of a time IS IT WRONG The followinglines were written by a lady of this town on the death of her father brother and sister la it wronsr to wish to see tliem Who were dear to us on earth Who have gone to heavenly mansions Who surround a brighter hearth Is it wrong to mourn their absence From the parted household band Should we check the sigh of sadness Though theyre in a better land Is it wrong to hope to meet them Yet upon the blessed shore And with songs of joy to greet them When this toil of life is oer Is it wrong to think them dearer Than the many of the blest Who to us on earth were strangers Must we love them like the rst Ive a father up in Heaven And oh tell me if you will Will that father know his children Will he recolleet them still Can he look down from those windows To this dark and distant shore Will he know when I am coming Will he meet me at the door And thou loved one who didst leave us In the morn of childhoods bloom Dearest brother shall I meet thee When I go beyond the tomb Shall I see thy lovely features Shall I hear thy pleasant words- - Soundingper my spirits heart strings Like the melody of birds And I think me of another Of a darling little one Who went up among the angels Ere her life had scarce begun I long once more to see her And to fold her in my arms As I did when she was witli us With her thousand budding charuiB Oh tis true the soul must suffer And be bound with anguish down Ere tis fitted for its dwelling Ere tis ready for its crown But oh Jesus Blessed Jesus Thou didst love without nlloj Thou wilt meet us thou wilt bles us Thou wilt give us perfect joy The New Presbyterian Minister Eev Dr W E Williamson of Leb- anon ¬ Ky the new minister appointed by the Presbyterian Synodical Commit- tee ¬ arrived here last Thursday night stopping at the Pieratt House On Fri- day ¬ morning he went immediately to work and did more pastoral work from that time until Monday morning three days than most ministers accomplish in as many weeks He called upon all the members of his church addressed both the schools delivered an address at the Hazel Green Academy entertainment held two services Saturday on Sunday visited both Sunday schools and had a talk with the children preached two sermons received into the church three members from other churches and held a childrens meeting The people all at- tended ¬ the meetings and from first to last manifested great interest Without regard to denominational lines all like him like his preaching and bespeak for him great popularity in this community He will again preach here on the second Sunday in February and all who have not heard him should avail themselves of that opportunity to do so An Artistic Workman Mr B F Eiddell the Mt Sterling tinner has just completed the most beautiful piece of stamped tile shingling perhaps ever executed in Kentucky We refer to the tower on the Hazel Green Academy From a distance when the suns rays strike it the painting presents all the beauty of the Kaleiodoscope toned down in old gold and crimson but a closer inspection reveals the fact that where the colors blend in harmony nestles a beautiful wild flower deftly delineated on a back ground of slate The tower is surmounted with cresting and the Bcene presented is one that transports the beholder to the Champs Elysees of France or the Carnival at Rome as it were Forrest is certainly a master hand MORGAN

Appropriate addresses by Rev Dr William ¬

benedictionBy Rev Dr W E Williamson of the Pres ¬

byterian ChurchBelow is the speech of Mr-- Samuel J

Salver a student of the Academy fromWest Liberty which was applauded to theecho by the entire assembJtgo Mr balyeris a fluent speaker and a few more years ofstudy and practice will find him in thshalls of Congress his voice mingling withthat of such men as Carlisle Breckinridgeaad Blackburn while his eloquence willrecall the days of Clay Calhoun and Web-ster

¬

He is destined to make his mark uponthe living issues in the pages of EasternKentucks history and so indelibly will hisname be stamped upon the hearts of thepeople that time cannot efface it WestLiberty may well boast of her talentedspeakers while she can claim Sam Salyerand when he shall return to them after acourse at Hazel Green Academy he will bemore mature and harder to master

Ladies and Gentlemen This is not atime for memory and for tears but time

when the hearts of you people should lapforth in gladness for prosperity is in ourmidst and bids onr country blossom as therose There is no land however luxuriantIts vegetation however fair its flowers how-ever

¬

blue its sky though so clear and pure ¬

ly beautiful that God alone may be seen inheaven yet it has its natural impedimentsIt seems to have been the wisdom of the in-

finite¬

God to so create the world that nospot should be entirely free from inconveniencies A fertile soil a salubrious climatewill most certainly add to the comfort andwellfare of the inhabitants of any countryBut no people can be truly blessed nocommunity can boast of its society unless intel-ligence

¬

reigns supreme Sampson lives inHoly Writ as the strongest man physicallythat ever trod the earth but how does hisslaying the Philistines as a blessing andbenefit to man compare with the Proverbsof Solomon or the writings of any man inacred historyThere is a Dortion ofEastern Kentucky sad

ly lacking in zeal for the promotion of learn ¬

ing and still brighter minds are not cre-ated

¬

nobler hearts beat not within the bo-

som¬

of man than throb beneath the breastsof the people of our hills In this scope ofcountry stretching from the Big Sandy onthe east to the Kentucky River on the westfrom the bluegrass region on the north tothe Tennessee line on the south comprisingin all near 20 counties the people are notparticularly lacking in religion for church-es

¬

are planted in almost every neighborhoodand the daily walks of our citizens bespeaktheir love for God The land is not want¬

ing in riches for under our feet lie slumber ¬

ing millions of wealth and the hills aredecked with forests of nnequled beautyand utility No water is so clear and spark-ling

¬

as that which ripple3 down our hillsand flows across our green valleys No airso fragrant with the breath of blooming na-ture

¬

so resonant with the voice of featheredsongsters warbling their Makers praise asthe gentle breezes that fan the fair cheeksof our maidens and cool the hardy brows ofonr bold mountaineers It is as Byron hassaidThe land of the cedar and the pine

Where the flowers ever blossom and thebeams ever shine

The All wise Providence has done every ¬

thing in reason to embellish our homes toameliorate the condition of his people inthis section of country and it now rests inour power to make us a learned as well as agenerous and chivalrous people It affordsme more than ordinary pleasure to trulystate that there is one town in all thesecounties I would say one county but thisis no county affair then I reiterate thatone town in all these counties has taken theright step What is it that is giving to thecitizens of Hazel Green a character for schol-arship

¬

above that of her neigboring townsWhat is it that is sending young men andwomen teacners tnrougnout tnis ana ad¬

joining counties better fitted to dischargetbe duties of a teacher than teachers havebeen heretofore Ah 1 The cause is obvi ¬

ous Give honor to whom honor is duethen let U6 praise the Hazel Green Academybeyond measure

I do not wish to deliver a eulogy uponany one but I must say as I have read thatall good things are three so you people havein your midst three men who hare done morefor you your children and in fact for East¬

ern Kentucky than any three men withinthe confines of our State This school-buil- d

ing tbe unest this side of Lexington willfly AerfBturejsdestiBeiltobeahrightoae attract the attention and command the ap- -

plause of all visitors and soon Hazel Greenwill be known farand near as the Athens ofEastern Kentucky Here the sons anddaughters the life of every household mayreceive a colleginle education There isfreedom in the very atmosphere and soonwe can boast of our institutions of learningIt behooves you one and all to stand bythese three noble hearted men and also ourable professor and make this school as firmas the rock of Gibralter

IS IT WRONG

The followinglines were written by a ladyof this town on the death of her fatherbrother and sister

la it wronsr to wish to see tliemWho were dear to us on earth

Who have gone to heavenly mansionsWho surround a brighter hearth

Is it wrong to mourn their absenceFrom the parted household band

Should we check the sigh of sadnessThough theyre in a better land

Is it wrong to hope to meet themYet upon the blessed shore

And with songs of joy to greet themWhen this toil of life is oer

Is it wrong to think them dearerThan the many of the blest

Who to us on earth were strangersMust we love them like the rst

Ive a father up in HeavenAnd oh tell me if you will

Will that father know his childrenWill he recolleet them still

Can he look down from those windowsTo this dark and distant shore

Will he know when I am comingWill he meet me at the door

And thou loved one who didst leave usIn the morn of childhoods bloom

Dearest brother shall I meet theeWhen I go beyond the tomb

Shall I see thy lovely featuresShall I hear thy pleasant words- -

Soundingper my spirits heart stringsLike the melody of birds

And I think me of anotherOf a darling little one

Who went up among the angelsEre her life had scarce begun

I long once more to see herAnd to fold her in my arms

As I did when she was witli usWith her thousand budding charuiB

Oh tis true the soul must sufferAnd be bound with anguish down

Ere tis fitted for its dwellingEre tis ready for its crown

But oh Jesus Blessed JesusThou didst love without nlloj

Thou wilt meet us thou wilt bles usThou wilt give us perfect joy
