Eph. -2-10. . •• Let ue gsk Him to work'in us to 7?1U those good works so that our will, without being Impaired in Its free operation may be permeated and molded by His will just asllght suf fuses the atmosphere, without dis placing it. And let us also expect that He will Infuse Into us sufficient .strength that we may be able to do His will unto all pleasing. Thus, day by day our life will be a mani festation of those holy volitions, and lovely deeds, which shall attest the indwelling and inworking of God. And men shall see our good works and glorify our Father, which is in heaven.—F. B. Meyer. Better Work Our Society Should Do. Ida Q. Moulton has put forth the Ulurtatlon to tho Christian Endeav- orers: “Do you want the members of your society to give more time and money to the work? Then urge them to try bringing all their tithes Into the store house and see what great blessings God has in store for tbem. Do you want them to undertake some special work? Then get them to praying that the Lord of the har vest will send forth more laborers into His harvest and the chances are He will send them. Do you want to see new members coming into the society? Then admonish all who have taken thp pledge to “walk In wisdom toward them that are with out.” Do you.want.to see more done for .missions? Thon entreat all to “lift up their eyes and look, on the Helds' whitened for the harvesters. If a Man Tells Ton That you Can't Run a.

If we expect the Lord to do great things with our societies, we must individually get into a place where ho can do great things with us. A little girl who constantly fol lowed her father about asking, “Papa what can I do for you?” wasreproved for it by her father. i^Cjind, why do you ask that ques tion bo often?” With tears In her eyes she replied “Because I love you so I can’t help it, papa.” Sup pose we were in that attitude where wo could not help asking God to let ns do something for Him, do you think wo would long have to study the problem of “Better work In our societies?” Now “Will -you not offer yourself today. While the Savior needs your life? It may be when you would join our ranks, ’Twill be at the end of strife.” +++ “Will you not offer yourself today, Today, while yet there Is light? For when you would gladly give up all It may be eternal night.” —October Record of Christian Work. A Public Benefactor Dr. Robert E.

SUITS WITHDRAWN CERTIFICATE HOLDERS GET MONEY REFUNDED AND ARE SATISFIED From Saturlay’s Dally.' The suits against the Atlantlo Coast I-llie railroad brought by about a dozen of the townspepole who at tended the Valdosta gun tournament were yesterday withdrawn. The cause of their being . brought was tho fact that the road refused to recognize the certificates < calling for a one-third fare on the return trip. The basis of compromise was that the road refund the extra two- thirds fare paid, amounting In each case to about eighty cents. The complainants say that they felt sure of winning their cases but that they had no desire to engage In a long litigation. They say that the light was one of prldclple as each could havo. worried along without the 80 cents In his business. They think the justice of their claims was ack nowledged by the road when the re fund of the extra fate was made. E. A.

Read that wonderful compllat- tlon of faith in Heb. 11 ch., tbe sum ming up of which begins with tbe 32nd verse: “And what shall I more say? for tbo time would fall me to tell of Gideon and of Barak, and of Sampson and of Jephthrae; of David also, and Samuel and of the prophets." Take the characters mentioned In this chapter and refer to their career as found In tho old testament scriptures. IS'hat a mar velous record as the result of Indivi dual faith! If our 43,000 Home Mission women would, today, exer cise a like faith, we would at once have the matrriai upon our al tars out of which to make the 100 trained workers for which the church at our very doors has so long been pleading. But remember the condi tions: See Abraham with Isaac, climbing up. Mount Moriah; Isaac bearing the wood for the altar, and Abraham with the Are in-one hand •nd the knife in tbe other!

Yours may not be demanded Just now, but you must have tbe sp.’rit of sacrifice ere yours Bhall be a prayer of faith. Home Mission women, do we really desire these trained work ers or are we merely players at this? ‘Be not deceived: God Is not mock ed.” Think on these things.—Bull etin. Kindergarten Training Class, Atlan ta, Georgia. The City of Atlanta, Ga., seems to be making a faithful effort to solve tbe problem of Us own great need for a trained Christian workers On the 11th of September her City Board of Missions opened at the Normul Training School Class. The course provided is so comprehensive that students may be fortified at every point and thoroughly prepar ed for all the varied conditions and experiences of city mission work. They are pleading for strong, intel lectual, consecrated young women to avail themselveB of. this oppor tunity to be trained for successful service in this kind of Christian work and efforts. Has fair Georgia no lovely daughters-to he thus hon ored? Yea, has not tt^e great city of Atlanta these noble young women, who are willing to labor ind suffer with Him In this mnch needed ser vice that they may reign with Him through nil eternity? “Think of these things.”—Bulletin.

Jerger The Bnlnbrldge Democrat or yes terday prints tbe following Interest ing political rumor which will beread all over tbe second district and which belongs In the “Important, If cor rect” class; “The report comes pretty straight .that Judge Spence will run for Congress In* the Second District next time. Mr. Griggs hav ing determined not to run for his present position any more. In this event, the next race promisee lively ttmea in the old Second district not ' only for Congressman but for Judge of the Albany circuit. The Judge may safely rely upon Grady county and equally depend upon Decatur and Seminole going against him." QUIET WORK-BEING DONE BY , ASPIRaNTSIFOR MUNICI PAL OFFICES The white primary for mohldpal officers will be held during the latter part .of 'December. All of the city officers have tp apek re-election an nually. A bill was advertised som time ago to make the terms of cer tain of these officers two years but this v4ts never Introduced Into tbe legislature. The prospects are that there will be a lively fight all along the line. The principal Interest cen ters In the office of mayor. The pres ent Incumbent |J. A. Roddenbery will not be -a candidate for re-elec tion. He has served tbe town for two years. No formal announce ments have yet been made tor this position but It Is an open secret that two prominent citizens of the town tyill seek the honor of being the city's chief executive. They are J. F. Pittman and J, S. Montgomery! Others have been mentioned to wit W. C. Snodgrass and C. W. Cooper, hut they have' hot said yes or no to Inquiring friends. There Is a cer tain element that declares that the race will be a three corqered ope. It goes without saying that the light' questloh will enter Into the caatpalgq. Some of the voters de clare that the municipal ownership matter will be the only rpel issue and that they will swing to the thing un til the city has a plant. Of course (f the light committee were to re commend the purchase of the pres- ent plant at a price satisfactory to all this contest would vanish and tbe election would be harmonious In that regard. This contingency new seems to be remote. There are others who say that they are tired of the light fight and lay that there are more Important Issues before the people. They term the light matter a dead Issue and waht to iigure on more sewerage, exten sion or water mains and better streets. , These issues wll enter Into tit;; platforms of the mayoralty candle- dates but the chief fight will 1* In the board of aldermen. Not all of the present board will stand for rey election though probably at least five out of the eight will. Young business men are suggested for- any vacancies that may arise. For tbe offices of clerk, marshal, sexton and treasurer it Is supposed that the gentlemen who now hold down those Jobs will offer agala-. As yet however, there haa been little or no talk'about them. There may be opposition and there mi/- not. The campaign will open up In earnest during the next few weeks But there haa already been a lot of quiet work done and n good many promises made. • My.
