Talk about your swell social
functions ! Your birthday sur
prise parties, your church fe-ti
val, or your limekiln swtulop sup
pers ! These might do when
there is nothing better in sight,
but it was left for N. B. Henry,
the boss barn builder, to inaugu
rate' what is likely to become a
more popular gathering than ev
en a darkey campmeeting. It is
simply a barn raising. The way
Mr. Henry does it, or rather the
way lie did it last Saturday, is as
follows : He is engaged now with
his force of men in building a big
barn for Johnnie Magsam, a mile
and a half southeast of town, it
was- known to him that by last
Saturday the barn would bo ready
to raise, and men would be need- j
ed. We do not know how he
made that fact known to the pub
lic, but early on that day, men
were there by the score farm
ers, lawyers, doctors and mer
chants and by noon the big
structure was "on its feet." So
pleased was Mr. Henry with the
result that he invited the whole
crowd to the City Hotei for din
ner. Did the crowd accept ?
Don't you think any of them re
fused! Three-score and fifteen
souls at once took up the line of
march, and in a remarkably short
time they were clamoring for ad
mittance into Harry Hamil's big
dining room. The crowd was
counseled to possess their souls
in patience, and in a few minutes
the doors were thrown open and
every man of them served to a
sumptuous dinner. The proba
bilities are, that if Mr. Henry
keers up tins custom, he will uev
er be stuck for hands when he
ants to raise a barn.
