Peach County Fair Exhibits and Midway
of Visitors
The second annual Peach County
Fair, sponsored
Foreign Wars, which opened Mon
*ay and will continue throughout
this week, promises to be highly
successful. Two large tents,
50 by 120 feet, housing commercial

exhibits .probably on Friday, and the
parade .scheduled to take place

High School Band, Boy Scout Troops
and decorated automobiles, the pa¬
rade wull form at the court house at
7:00 p. m. and go to the fair grounds.
Every school in Peach county is
represented in the exhibits, with
separate places reserved for Byron
and Fort Valley schools, 4-H Club
and F.F.A., exhibits, both white and
colored. Livestock, chickens, farm
produce, and several interesting hob¬
bies, are being exhibited by boys and
girls. Various school projects such as
home economics, book illustrations,
maps and drawings arc on display,
Of special interest is “Safety Town,”
designed to teach safety to children,
The commercial exhibits are a
point of interest, tying in as they do
with agricultural displays. They in¬
clude farm marchinery and equip
ment. household appliances and fur
nishings, all obtainable locally.
Midway attractions are furnished
by the Crystal Exposition Shows and
include divci 9Q. entertainment for

Rev. Britt Ellington Heard
At St. Andrew's Church
By MRS. W. J. BRASWELL
Words can be glibly, easily spoken
vet words can be great enduring!
Speaking on the imagery and artis
try of words at St. Andrew’s Episco
nal Church Sunday morning, the Rev.
Britt Ellington quoted great authors
and Biblical writers in galaxy of
expression. The minister quoted the
description of Queen Mab in
Shakespear’s Romeo and Juliet, men
tinned Sidney Lanier’s Marshes of
Glynn in building on the greatness
of God”, and gave lines from Thomas
Cray’s “Elegy Written in a Country
Church-Yard,” as examples of mag
nificent expression.
Noting retribution, the words of
Nathan, the prophet, to King David,
“Thou art the Man!” were used as
an illustration of significant words
spoken. The words of Isaiah, a major
prophet, relative to his vision of the
Lord on His throne were used as
illustration of superior, inspired ex
pression. From the New Testament
the words of Jesus to Martha of
Bethany when He said to the grieved
woman, “I am the resurrection and
the life: he that believeth in me,
though he were dead, yet shall he
live,” were given. Words of Jesus
commanding an evil spirit to depart;
the words in the love chapter of First
Corinthians written by the Apostle
Paul; the prayer on the cross for
forgiveness of the perpetrators, are
words that will live.
The climaxing illustration of im¬
mortal words were those from the
lips of the Saviour, “Whosoever liveth
and believeth in Me shall never die.”
Rev Mr Ellington is serving St.
Andrew’s Church here,
every Sunday morning.
