Friday morning at 7:30 o’clock,

hearing something like fifty young
people who are g6lng to iMacon to
represent the Athens Christian
Endeavor Union. Tho Athens party
will be joined at Bishop and Wat*

way to Macon, the young people
will enjoy the trip of their life
Yells and songs will be given on

the hours away In happiness will
ho enjoyed. The Athens folks will
arrive In Macon at 11:20 and they
promise to let all Macon know that
they come from tho Classic City
and from the enthusiasm already
disolayed, the statement is sure
to prove true.
When the train arrives at Mon

in picnic style, which will add
more to the trip. Each Endeavoref
will carry along lunch, which
makes it possible to leave the de
