session, at Perry from the 25th to
29th inclusive. On the 25tli,
there will be no session of the
conference, but the opening ser
mon will be preached by Rev. J.
B. Johnston, at 8 p. m. On the
last day, Sunday, of course there
will be no business session.
The district embraces about 2$
churches, served by 18 preachers,
all of whom will attend the con
ference, providence permitting.
The lay delegates will include
about double tile number of min
isters, and with the visitors from
a distance, there will be about 75
guests in Perry ,during the confer
ence.
At the homes and hotels the
delegates will be entertained most
cordially, and we are certain the
proverbial hospitality of Perry
people will again be illustrated.
Committees have been appointed,
and within a few days, at least
before any delegate arrives, it will
be known where every one will be
at home during the conference.
Each day there will be business
meetings and religious services, to
all of which the public will have
cordial invitation to attend.
Rev. J. B. McGehee, presiding
elder of the district, will preside
over the business sessions of the
conference.
The pastors of the churches in
the district are: Revs. J. B. John
ston, LI. B. Bardwell, I. F. Grif
fith,S W, Rogers, H.C. Brewton,

Baseball at Perry.
The first game of baseball wit
nessed in Perry this season was
played last Wednesday, June 4th,
between Marshallville aud Perry
teams.
Witnessing the game were a
large number of home folks and
a few visitors, including several
young ladies from Fort Valley.
The visiting team was compos
ed of young gentlemen who have
many friends here, and they play-
ed fairly good ball.
The Perry team was selected the
day before the game, and at least
two were two boys under 15 years
of age who had never before play
ed a match game.
The game was played with spir
it, and with quick time. Some
excellent double plays were made,
but though interesting, 1 },the game
was notimore than ordinary from
a professional standpoint.
The visitors started off with 3
runs in the first innings, followed
by the home team, with two runs.
The visitors won the game by a
score of 11 to 7, as follows:
Marshallville 3,0,1,4,0,1,0,0,2: 11
Perry 2,0,0,0,3,0,0,1,1; 7
The batteries were Sperry and
Andrews for Marshallville; Coop
er aud Westbrook for Perry.

After severalal weeks of dry
weather we are having refreshing
rains. Some hail fell during the
rain yesterday afternoon, but v not
enough to injure the crops.
How many readers of the Jour
nal kdow that hail-stones con
tain a small particle of dust, and
who can tell why it does? • In
some -instances it is ^visible even
before the hail has quite melted.
A great deal of interest was
manifested in the primary last
Thursday, but despite the enthu
siasm of the voters the best of
feeling prevailed.
The friends of Mr. and Mrs. A.
G. Smith were delightfully enter
tained at their home a few even
ings since. The occasion was a
musicale given in honor of Mr.
and Mrs. Sawyer of Knoxville.

class of the efficient teacher", Miss
Leila Walton. . . Stt : ‘
The program was-interspersed
with’? welt-rendered recitatiqiis by
the children of the school. ■ '
Many patrons of the school, es
pecially the good mothers, were
out to show their interest in the
dear children and bid adieu to the
much’ beloved and faithful teach
ers.
There were visitors from Tlrnrpe,
Byron, Macon, and Unadilla.
The program 'was as follows:
America—Song, by school.

ie Hardison and Miss Walton. ..
Zenda Waltz—Whitmarlc, Oma

A Naughty Girl’s View of Life-

dison and Miss Walton.

Nellie’s Prayer—Recitation,Eva

A talk by Teacher—J. D. Ren-
froe.
God Be With You —Song, by
School.
Each pupil deserves credit for
doing his part so well, thereby
showing that he had received
careful training.
I wish to mention specially the
talk by Mr. Renfroe in behalf of
all the teachers. It was good,
sound advice, mostly to the pu
pils, showing his devotion to
them, admonishing them to look
upward, onward, forward, ever
striving to gain knowledge, to do
the right, and will of Him above,
reminding them that the day for
study does not close with the
school, but only when the breath
of eternal life shakes off its mor
tal frame.
I notice the energy of the teach
ers and pluck of the children
have placed large political maps
on the walls, formed a library of
about 80 volumns, erected a flag
pole which floats a home-made
symbol of American pride, and
purchased a large (walking?)
bell.
All present recognized the mer
its of the entertainment and with
one accord praised the success in
the rendition of the program.
May Ben Hill school, children,
patrons, and teachers remain
wide awake and have many more
successful years. Observer,
