Philomatheon Notes.
The Philomotheou Literary so
ciety is still prospering. It meets
every Friday and interesting pro
grams are always rendered. The
last meeting we had a lively and
finely presented debate on this
question—Resolved, “The cotton
gin has been of more benefit to
mankind than the telegraph.”
This is an important question and
many practical points were
brought out pro aud con. Those
who made the first speeches on
the affirmative were, Lewis Ren
der, Joe Dunson, Jim Toni Loyd|
Wallace Clark and Eugene Pierce.
Those on the negative were, Har
ry Slack, Chas. Cotter, Searcy
Slack and Willie Lehman. The
judges found difficulty in decid
ing but the weight of the argu
ment was given to the boys on
the negative. These debates are
generally impromptu and they re
quire quick thinking, and the
members agree to overlook a blun
der, however, nothing of this
kind ever happened.
The society has made arrange
ments to supply song books for
the morning exercise at the school.
Mr. James Handley made the
motion that we get these books a s
he is an enthusiast of song, and
the society was unanimous in
thinking it an excellent idea, so
the books will soon be en route
for the school. The morning ex
ercises are not a part of the pro
gram for the society but we have
the pleasure of contributing this
much to the school.
When the society had finished
its business, a committee of Miss
es Corinne Jarrel, Mildred Han
son and Corinne Heard from the
Eliot Club which is the girl’s so
ciety of the High School, came to
offer a challenge to the Philoma
theon society in a debate. A
motion was made that the chal
lenge should be accepted. This
motion was carried and a commit
tee of Lewis Render, Chas. Cot-
ter and Harry Slack was appoint
ed to arrange time, subject and

terms for the debate.
This committee met Misses
Hanson and Jarrel of the other
society and arranged for the de
bate as follows: The subject shall
be, “English is a more beneficial
study than Mathematics.” The
time is set two weeks for prepar
ation ; and the speakers shall be
chosen one each from the eighth,
ninth aud tenth grades of eacli
society; a coin was tossed for the
sides, the boys getting the affirm
ative. The speakers have not
yet been elected but this will be
done at the next meeting. The
debate will be close as the socie
ties make one run match and the
speakers will be chosen on both
sides. Already great interest is
being taken in this mental clash,
for there was always a friendly,
though decided, rivalry between
the chosen young desciples of
Demosthenes
DeLoach.
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Hand, of
Truett, Ala., were visiting here
Saturday and Sunday.
Mr. W. J. Kirby and Mr. W. H.
Jacobs and daughter, Miss Dora,
of West Point, attended the fun
eral of Mrs. Hadaway last Wed
nesday.
Rev. Jesse Holiday, who was to
conduct the services at the burial
of Mrs. Hndaway, foiled to come
aud Mr. W. H. Haralson conduct
ed services. A large number was
present. Mrs. Hadaway leaves two
sons and two daughters, quite a
number of relatives and 1 a host of
friends to mourn her death,
I hope that other papers will
follow the lead of The Reporter
and take up the fight for better
roads. My plan would be to levy
a property tax for the improve
ment of the public roads. Of
course some will oppose this, but
none can do so whom it will not
benefit, for those who are the
largest property holders will be
the most benefitted by improved
roads.
I have never seen so many cot
ton seed used for fertilizer as is
being used this year. This is as
it should be considering the price
asked for cotton seed meal,
