Sunday School Convention.

: account of the Sunday school con ■
\ vention at Ellabeile on the 4th, '
inst.
The convention met at 10 o’-I
clock, a. m. the president, Bro.
J, P. Eng ish, presiding. Only |
I three schools appeared with pro-|
l grams, Ellatielle, Lanier and Way- j
side. The programs were tine and
very nicely and impressively ren
dered. There was a large crowd
and all seemed to know how to be
“purty.” 1 didn’t see any one
that 1 could see was under the in-
I ibieuce of strong drink.
Judge Sheppard was expected to
be there with an address, but for
some cause he failed to show up.
Everybody was so well pleased
with the former president and
clerk they were reelected. At the
close of the business of the con
vention the president made some
very impressive remarks, and ex
horted all to lie more faithful in
going out into the highways mid
hedges for those that are lost.
The convention goes to Lanier
next year.

About Congressional Tenure of
Office.
A Savannah merchant last week
in introducing Congressman Ed- /
wards said: “May he live to a
ripe old age and die in office.
i This is typical of some Savannah
‘ business men. They want the
; Congressman always. But Con-
gressman Edwards replied: “Itl
is not such an easy job to stay in
’office from the First Congre sional
District,” and in immediate con-;
Lection with this stat ment he
'said In had secured six million
dollars for Savannah harbor. He
did not tell now much he had se
cured for the country counties
Mayb-, this accounts for the fact
that he is finding it a haid job to
here-elected this year.—Sylvania

Edwards Visit Home.
Congressman Edwards sa'TFv ■»
he came home to make" an active;
campaign for jo-election to Con

out “jeopardizing the interests of;
his constituents at this particular !

I Lower Cotton Bill for rggdlation I
; of cotton exchanges—probaßiy the!
1 most important bill to the.farmers
that will be considered fpr .many
ysars—has come up for .cMiHidera
tion in the House, and a, substi
tute was adopted changing „the
bill enacted by the Senaje. The
House also passed,a BiJi changing
the law which heretoM* 4-prohi
bited Confederal M^ldkrs. from
collecting claims or ncc d u n t s

We wonder if Mr. \fidwards
thinks hie constituents fire'not in- !

there ever was a time when the
farmers needed their representa

cotton exchange bill was; under
consideration. Ad.

Edwards Endorsed By ehairman
Roads Committee.
[committee on Roads, U. 8.
House of Representatives,
Washington, D. C., June 10, ’l4.
Dr. L. J. Belt,
Millen, Ga.
Dear Sir:
I have your favor asking me in
relation to Mr. Edwards’ record on
the subject of road legislation. It
affords me great pleasure to state
th the has been one of the most
active advocates of ?uch legisla
. tiou. He voted for the bill which
passed the House but failed in the
Senate in the 62ud Congress,
(1912). He was very active ini
securing a rum which enabled us i
!to bring that measure before the.
House.
He supported the amendment
to the House Rules which created
the House Committee on Roads.
When the House Committee re
p irte 1 on roads its bill to the;
House in this session Mr. E I wards !
was a^ain active in securing a rule ;
making it in order to consider the i
I bill and lie vote 1 for its final pas
sage. In fact he has been an ar .
I dent supporter of road legislation i
at a'l times and rendered us much
valuable assistance.
Respectfully,
Dorsey W. Shackleford,
I Chairman Committee on Roads.

Edwards Will Carry Effingham.
The general indications are that
Edwards will have no trouble in
carrying this county in the coming
primary.
The people of old Effingham not
I only realize that Mr. Edwards is
i far the superior man of the two
J candidates for Congress, but even
if they did nut know thut beyond
a question tlv-y would not tole
rate the “mud slinging” that Mr.
Overstreet hus been indulging in.
The time for gaining votes by
slinging unjust words of criticism
has long since been relagated to
the past by the people of Effing
ham, and a large majority of them
have already made their decision
on the question—that Edwards is
their man.
Mr. Edward® has shown by a
statement of facts that the charge
/that he has done hardly anything
for his people since he has be m in
Washington is untrue and unjust.
It is not even necessary for Mr.
Edwards to show the people of
Effingham these facts, for they are
a reading and thinking people and
always know what is being doi^fi
for them by their representa Ves |
and servants.
Furthermore it seeias to ÜB J®F
the Majority of the of
the district will be iy/ the same
boat with Effingham, and on the
19th of August, next Mt. Edwards
will be found an easy victor. —

Surprising Cure of Stomach
y Trouble.
When you 'have ‘'-.oible with
your stomach or chronic C 'nstipa
tion, don’t imagine that your
case is beyond help just because
your doctor fails 11 give relief.
Mrs. G. btengle, Plainfield N. J.
writes, “For over a month past
I have been tr.ubled with my
stomach. Every thing I ate
up set it terribly. Oue of
Chamberlain’s advertising book
let-came tome. After reading
a few of tne letters from people
who had been cured by Chamber
lain’s Tablets, I decided to try
them. 1 ha,e taken three fourths
of a package of them and I can
eat almost everything 1 want.”

Why Turn Edwards Out?
In speaking of the C-.-ngression- i

ask:
When an official has been faith

office because some one else want I

ask, why? Ad

Unjust Criticisms-Edwards Can’t
Please Everybody.
If Charlie Edwards were to suc
ceed in getting through Congress
a bill inoreasing the prices of cot
ton 10 cents per pound, eliminat
ing the toll weevil, preventing
panics, floods, dry spells, short
crops and, in fact, every other
thing detrimental to successful
farming, still we believe there
; would be people who would insist
that he had done nothing what
ever. At least Mr Overstreet
would have the people believe
' that he had been sleeping for the
last eight years.—Enterprise. Ad
