WITH SUCCESS MS. JOHNSON DIED I niESBDY moos Rev. Chamlee Do ing Preaching and Rev. Bell Singing A large number of Canton people have been attending the Revival meeting now in progress at the First Baptist Church. To those that have been attending we need not burden you with the knowledge that you have been receiving something worth while, hut to you that have been cold and indifferent • and haven’t been attending the services, it is your loss, to you that have been attending it is your gain, as you have already learned. For.the past two issues, we have carried th* announcement that two “Cherokee Sons” were in charge of the services, is was not our intention then, nor either is it our intention now lo tell you that they have made good, is wasn’t intended, for they themselves have done the mak ing and as we search the English dictionary we are at a loss to find a word that will express just how good they are making and have made. We refer to Rev. Aquilla Chamlee who is doing the preaching, both morn ing and evening and Rev. Howell Bell who is in charge of the singing. Numbers and numbers of our read ers remember them from school- hood days. Rev. Chamlee’s sermons have been more than could be ex pected. His sermons are powerful and sincere together with a beauti ful delivery which makes his audi ence eager to catch every word that falls from his lips and we say it Reverently that never before in the history of Canton have the people been so profoundly impressed a* they have with the series of sermons he is delivering and when the meet ing had drawn to a close and Bro. Chamlee has departed from us, his good sermons and kind deeds will live in the hearts of the Canton peo ple forever. Bro Chamlee will con tinue the meeting the remainder of the week and we would urge to the people of Canton and Cherokee to mu name CHEROKEE CIMMIETEE A number of Republicans in Cherokee county are receiving notices this week that the following men will constitute the Republican Executive Committee of Cherokee County.

Rev. Howell Bell who is in charge of the singing is also another Chero kee product that is doing wonderful work and his singing is being greatly enjoyed. Remember the meeting both in your prayers and attendance. A man doesn’t think much about the care of his hair until It Is either gone or going so rapidly that it is difficult to stop. A woman begins taking care of her hair when she is a little girl—and as a result the average woman has an abundance of beautiful hair. Proper care of the hair calls for good brushes, combs, certain medical remedies, the proper soap for washing, possibly & vibrator or massage roller, r. hair tonic, scalp food, dandruff eradicator itc.

Stage settings and beautiful lighting effects will also add much toward the interpretation of the story. Every detaii of the costumes are appropriate to the story and the time of the scenes enacted. The Biblical story of Saul will he depicted throughout its various dra matic situations, with only one de parture from the true story,—that is Jonathan is not slain in battle, but returns with news from the bat tle. * The curtain ries with a brilliant court scene showing King Sayl (bass) surrounder by his courtiers and attendants, being being hailed in a grand chorus hy the people on the victorious return from a battle with the Amalekites.

The various incidents of the story , are presented with different scenes j and setting and are interpeted with j great feeling both hy the members | and the acting. The characters of David, Jonathan Michael, Abigale, Witch of Endor. and the Messenger of Comfort with various chorouses, rich in me’ody and rhythm are introductory. Scenes especially impressive are shown in act IV, when David is shown at night in a secluded wood ed place and the Messenger of Com fort appears to him; in act V, the Witches’ Place when Saul consults the Witch of Endor and Michael and Samuel make their unexpected en-, trance. The closing scene is one of great animation and victory show ing David being crowned as kind. Announcements of the members of the cast and as to ticket reserva tion will be made next week.
