of Church.
A large congregation greeted
Rev. A. Chamlee at the Baptist
church last Sunday, several of the
mem hers of the Methodist church
attending on account of the ab
sence of Mr. Colson at the South
Georgia Conference.
Mr. Chamlee spoke interesting
ly of his impressions of the recent
stat' convention at Madison and
of tlie work of the Baptists in
Georgia and in foreign Helds.
His sermon was a powerful ap
peal for home qqd foreign mis
sions, citing the reports of mis
sionaries to show how a work was
being done and how important
this work was p> Christianity,
peace and civilization.
lie appealed to tho men to take
hold of the work and press it to
completion and commended the
organizations of tho women and
children.
There was little doubt, ns Mr,
Chamlee progressed in the talk,
that ho had gathered new zeal,
and enthusiasm in the grout work
at the convention and that, the
reports submitted had greatly en
couraged him in his efforts.
His congregation has rarely
heard Mr. Chamloe speak so
earnestly, so pointedly, so em
phatically and so feelingly as he
did in his Sunday sermon and it
was one of tho best of the good
talks he always delivers.
An interesting incident he told
to our people was that Miss Jones,
formerly a nurse at Rawlings’
Sanitarium, in this city, was now
in a hospital in China and a co-
worker with the Baptist mission
aries in that far-away country.

Enough Cases To Consume
About One Week on
Docket.
A special term of Washington
superior court was called about
two weeks ago to convene next
Monday morning in order to clear
the jail and save expense to the
county.
Several coses could not lie
reached at the regular term and
this made the convening of the
court necessary, m addition to the
expense feature.
It is said there are enough cases
to consume the entire week if they
are all tried, there being several
murder eases to try not reached at
the regular term.
WILL PRINT DIRECTORIES
For The Various Churches and Lod
ges of City and County.
The Herald requests each Lodge
and church in the county to fur
nish by mail, directories, showing
the time of holding meetings or
services, to be carried permanent
ly in this paper without any
charge and to be changed when
ever requested.
Particularly should the pastors
in the city furnish these directo
ries. It is frequently difficult for
people to remember the time of
holding the various meetings and
as nearly every family in Sanders-
ville will be reached by this paper,
the publication will be of great
ad-vantage to them.
Rev. H. M. Morrison, said to be
one of the most eloquent of the
hard working preachers of the
South Georgia Conference, will
come to Sandersville Junuary 1st,
and the members of the church
generally are pleased with the ap
pointment and believe Mr. Mor
rison will take up the good work
of his predecessors and carry it
forward to success. The people
generally will give Mr. Morrison
aiy.l his family a cordial reception.
Many of our readers will be
glad to know that Rev. .J. M.
Cutler, a former beloved pastor of
this church will go to Dublin and
be near us.

College of Agriculture, Athens,
Gu., from January 4 to 15, in
clusive. The railroads have agreed
to make special rates on the cer
tificate plan, and the cost of at
tending the school will be confined
to railroad fare, board while in
Athens, which need not lie over
one dollar a day, and a $1.00 reg
istration fee. Thq persons at
tending the school will be sup
plied with mimeographed copies
of all lectures given. There will
be about fifty of these sheets
which will constitute mi
admirable summary of informa
tion on the soil, fertilizers, selec
tion of cotton seed, diseases of
cotton, insects attacking cotton,
feeding of cotton by-products,
machinery used in cotton culti
vation, grading and warehousing
of cotton, T! e subject of cotton !
grading will be emphasized ve”y ,
particularly, the work of the last
school having demonstrated that
in a period of ten days the aver- *
age farmer could be taught to di*- j
tinguish grades and classes of cot-'
ton with sufficient accuracy to j
protect himself in offering his
goods for sale.
The cotton school brings within ;
the range of every farmer in Geor
gia a vast amount of useful and
practical information at a mini
mum of cost. Any farmer attend
ing this school will be benefited.
Ask the opinion of those who at
tended last year. Do not fail to
take advantage of the opportunity
which the state is offering its far
mers throu/h its college of agri
culture for obtaining information
of the greatest practical and
scientific value.
CHRISTMAS JUGS
ARRIVING ALREADY
Noticeable Increase in Liquor Ship
ments—Remedies Discussed.
A party of citizens were watching
the unloading of packages “with no
marks to show contents” at the train
a few days ago, and there was such an
increase in the number as to cause a
discussion of the evil und a remedy.
While it is likely the orders will
have to be repeated, there is little
doubt that these were the “Christmas
Jugs” or so intended, as bml as it is to
connect these vessels and contents
with the name of Christ.
That there should be enacted laws
by Congress to put a stop to the evil,
was the conclusion reached by the par
ty present.
“Hell” All Left Herald Office.
We are getting over the effects
of the fire. For several weeks we
have been separating type and
putting in new and the old refuse
type and metal has been thrown
in the “hell box” and shipped to
the type foundry so there is no
“hell” left in the Herald office.
