This text was used by the Rev. W. G. Woodbridge, of Atlanta, in a sermon preached in the Presbyterian church Thanksgiving day before the united congregations of the Methodist, ‘Baptist and Presbyterian churches. The minister showed that notwithstand ing all the vast progress made in the material world in the way of discover ies and inventions, man himself as a moral and intellectual ereature is in herently the same as he was when Moses led the children of Israel from the bond age of Egypt, though his status, in every respect, has been greatly raised by improved econditions. He paid a glowing tribute to Martin Luther, John Calvin and John Wesley saying that the good which they conferred upon mankind by relieving it of the bondage of superstition, ignorance and error, is inestimable. At the conclusion of the sermon a collection for the poor was taken, and a good sum realized which was divided equally among the three churches. Rev. C.T. A. Pise conduct ed the service at the Episcopal chureh, preaching a fine sermon to a large con gregation.

AND TO STAY, Made Only One Crop in Seven Years, Caused by Drouths, They go and they come. There got off the train here last Saturday morn ing, Mr John H Wilkie ard family from Baxter county, Ark. They were en route to their old home near Franklin gold mines in Cherokee county, Ga, Mr. Wilkie said he had lived in Baxter county, Ark., for geven years and dur ing that entire time he had made only one good crop.g Drouth came and de stroyed all his ?abor and he had come back to Georgia where he could make a crop every year. His wife’s health there was miserable, and he has enough of that country. He says people are still going into that portion of the west though by the wagon loads, all looking for a better country, but he doubts if they will find it, for if their experience is such as his, a crop only in seven years means destitution. Stay in good old Georgia, where health is iu the air, clear sparkling water flows from the mountain sides, and cereals and fruits grow to perfection, schools and church es abound, and civilization has reached a stage of industrial progress that is beneficial to all.
