G, 0. P. Chairman Im
pressed by West
(Lincoln News Service)
Washington. Feb. 8, —Chairman John
T. Adams, of the Kepublican National
Committee, has returned to town from a
visit through the middle west. He said
hb had found industrial conditions very
favorable ih the regions he visited, with
visible signs of a general picking up of
business. “One thing which impressed
me, said Chairman Adams, “waa the
friendly attitude of the people toward
the administration and the Republican
regime. I heard many expressions of
friendliness, from democrats as well a 8
republicans, for the administration.
“Business is improving; the farmers
are coming back, and conditions are
looking up all along the line. As to
political conditions for the republican
party, I am more than pleased at the
piospect. I was exceedingly gratified
over the industrial outlook, for that
spells welfare for the whole country.’
SISTER AMWA JONES DIES
The death angel visited Sister Aman
d i Jones Sunday moiuing, January 27th
1924, and the great spirit was freed from
the cares oi this life, and like a bird to
tue mountains, fled heavenward to be
received by God who 1 ave it. She was
taken with a chill on the 17th, and this
led to complications from which she
never recovered.
Sister Jones was born in Oglelhrope
County in 1866. Hence, at the time of
her death she was in her fifty-eighth
yeir. She was carried to Augusta in
her early childhood and during her life
there she became a member of Spring
field Baptist Church. In 1891 she came
to Athens aud during the pastorate of
Rev. I. K. Hall she connected herself
with Hill’s First Baptist Church. She
died in the ranks of this church, having
been a faithful member for thirty-three
years.
Sister Jones had been a hard working
woman all her days. She w’as honest,
upright and minded her own business;
she had those essentials that will carry
vou to heaven.
