There have been many opportunities for the people of Thomasville to prove that they have warm 1 and generous hearts, and that proof has always been forthcoming. The Gainesville incident was no exception to the rule and in a short time many names were inscribed on the roll 6i contributors. Each deemed it a pleasure to help the needy and suffering. The amount of $111.27 was raised, and was ^ent to Gainesville yesterday afternoon free of charge by the Southern Express Company. Mr. W. P. Grantham, the genial agent of the company at this" place informs the Times-Enterprise that money or clothes or any other articles weighing less than ifty pounds will be sent free to Gaines ville. This is most generous offer and goes to disprove the oft repeated asser tion that corporations have no sozzls. Meigs Giving to Gainesville Sufferers Hon. E.

Festivities at the public schools did not last so long last week as Thomasville was accustomed to see in the days of South Georgia College, Young Female College and numerous private schools, but in point of brilliance the entertainments on Thursday and Friday nights were no Whit behind. ' In spite of the rain, Mrs. Carswell and her pupils were greeted by a flattering audience on Thursday. The beautiful weather of Friday and the charm of the word “diploma” combined to fill the auditorium of South Georgia College to uncomfortable overflowing on Friday. /.Every nook, cranny and window from door 'to ceiling was crowded with inter ested, expectant faces. " On both occasions the performers ac quitted themselves^ with great credit. Mrs. Carswell’s talent as a music teach er was in evidence through herpupilson each evening. The touch and technique of the youthful musicians is unusual, and their efforts lent a charming variety to the exercises on Friday. Being the chief attraction oh Thursday it is unnec essary to speak of their efforts except as a whole. To mention in detail, and do credit to each individual performer of the cele bration would be a task almost as great as that of the class poet himself. In the words of the valedictorian, Misses Mary Ann and Elizabeth Den- bam, who have been the attractive young guests of Judge Hansell’s family, have ‘'returned to their home in Monti cello.
