It was our pleasure to meet our old friend, Mr. J. C. English, of Lib erty Hill, last Sunday, the 15th inst., at Sowhatchee. Bro. English is one of Sowhatchee’s boys and a welcome visitor at any home here. Success to you, brother. A series of meetings are now in progress at Zion church. Rev. S. Eley, pastor, is assisted by Rev. E. B. Joyner, of Dukes, Fla. The meet ing will continue possibly the en tire week, during which time we should be able to get results. Should the meeting at Zion close Friday night, the officers of the S. S. and B. Y. P. U. are asked to meet at the Baptist church Saturday night, the 21st, at 7:30 p. m., for the purpose of organizing a study club. As we now stand, we are too far apart and we do not understand our position toward those whom we would teach. All are invited. Let all the teachers, leaders and other officers be present. The fair correspondent of Sow hatchee last week showed great sym pathy for Old Caesar by using the word wonderful when the word ludi crous would have been more appro priate. However, we will give it in right. That charming young lady found out that Old and Mrs. Caesar would like to go to Mayhaw, Miller county, the 4th inst., and came early the morning of the 4th, accompanied by Miss Mattie Lee, of Beaumont, Texas. Away we went and Old Cae sar had settled back to enjoy things right when Miss Willis made a turn to avoid a bad place in the road, and down we went in the bog. We ease out and found we would have to prize out. Off we went to hunt a pole and every few steps we would find where some one else had prized out. Soon we found a pole 15 feet long. Now to get it there. We shouldered that pole and got it to the car. By that time Mr. George Temple and others were there to help us. Soon we were out and an other car stuck fast near us. We helped them out and left On to M'ayhaw and we found a lot of the old boys at Col. J. F. Bush’s to help enjoy the reunion. A bountiful dinner was spread and we did it full justice. At 3 p. m. we were ready for the return trip. Miss Christine Willis decided not to try the pond again, but to go back byway of Blakely. With a good road and with an expert at the wheel like Miss Willis, we sailed, we glided and we flew and in one honr we were back home. Thanks, many thanks, Miss Christine, for the pleasant trip. Last Friday night we concluded a most wonderful meeting at Sowhat chee Baptist church, something that nearly all had said could not be ac complished and had given up in despair. Our pastor and a few others put in to do this work, and it was done. Bro. Matthews said it must be done and done now. He worked day and night and left us Saturday mornng a wearied and worn, but happy, man. Bro. Mat thews is a man that doesn’t know defeat. Visiting at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Willis the past week were Mrs. J. B. Bivings of Jesup, Mr. J. W. Pelham of Gordon, Ala., Misses Beulah and Jessie Lee Sapp, M’r. Hollie Wadford and sis ter, Miss Eula, and Miss Edna Mc- Donald of Graceville, Fla. Miss El lene Willis returned home with these young people to spend the week. B. Y. P. U. Program.

EARLY COUNTY NEWS 'HINTS on fashions FOR FALL SEASON It has been customary in the past seasons for us to give a few hints as will be fashion’s decree for the com ing fall season. Indications are that very interest ing fashions are in store, as seen from reports and fashions from both Paris and New York. The coat suit will again be popu lar, but very different; the coat be ing tight fitting, plain tailored al most as a riding habit, single-breast ed and a slight flare, finger length or even shorter, long slender notch revers and a link button closing at the normal waist line. The coat dress, next in line in pop ularity, presents smart models thai will be even in front diagonally tiered. Skirts of very fine poiret \will are mostly used for these dresses. Trimmings of linen are shown on many of these models. As to coats, from what can be observed at the present time, early fashions show a tie on the side. Very likely the flare, which was a late spring product, will be in vogue for this fall. For short lengths ten inches from the ground is considered proper. The blouse is of a shirt type, sometimes collarless, and will be used four to five inches below waist line. This style of blouse is used mostly in connection with the coat suits. The fancy blouse is by no means a discard and will be used more elaborately embroidered and beaded than ever. Very likely the greatest change in dress will be the introduction of circular flares and the tiered skirt. However, from for mer seasons, although fashions show them for the late spring, they will be a factor for fall. While it is rather early to fortell regarding evening apparel, this much can be said. What has been shown so far are bodices very much un trimmed, oval back and medium low decolette. New weaves in silks will be shown, velvets are also promised to be very good for this fall. Char meen, a new dress material, is firm, yet thin, silky in appearance.
