3rd Sunday, is Rev. Erwin’s monthly
appointment at our schol audi
torium. We understand that on the
second Sunday in July he is intending
to protract for a week, at least, at
the school house. This arrangement
will conflict with the Free Will Bap
tists, as the second Sunday in July
every year is the time for their
protracted meeting, One of the
other of the meetings will have to
be changed, as Our Community catt
not take care of two protracted
meetings at the same time.

last week.
Mr. and Mrs. Bartlett, of Leary,
were recent week end guests of the
latter’s mother, Mrs. Mary Wallace.
We always thought that the
church was opposed to gambling in
any form, but it seems from the ac
tion of the general conference of the
M. E. Church, South, in recent ses
sion at Dallas, Texas, that they ac
tually whitewashed gambling bish
op. That action will not do the
church nor prohibition any good, but
wll tend to hurt both causes. One
good thing the conference did, and

elected I pledge you all the ability
and efficiency that I have on .all
measures coming up before the as
sembly. I’m human and conceited
enough to compliment my last work

of Georgia of over one million dol

as their servant, and on account of
my friends urging me to make the

services. Respectfully,
