The ad vance continued there Friday, wheat going up more than four cents a bushel in early trading, and other grains also soaring. Meanwhile farmers’ hopes were buoyed somewhat by forecasts of probable thunder showers, cooler weather and unsettled conditions in the Mississippi valley. The showers, however, were not ex pected to bring anything but slight relief from high temperatures which supplied an anti-climax Thursday to a ' month -of dust storms and extreme aridity. Temperatures of 103 degrees were common in Kansas and Mis souri yesterday while their north ern neighbors sweltered under the full blast of the heat wave. Inwood, la., topped the day’s rec ord wtih 111 degrees and Aberdeen, N. D, was not far behind with 110. At Freeport, 111, the mercury shot up to 106, and at Minnea polis to 106.3. Schools at those two cities and at Des Moines and Keokuk, la., were dismissed. The Illinois Bar association in session at Waukegan suspended activities to permit delegates to seek relief. 1‘ Methodists Issue Church Directory In Oconee County WATKINSVILLE—The Watkins ville Methodist ciseuit of the Ath ens-Elberton district of the North Georgia conference has racently issued an attractive church direc tory for 1934-35, which contains a list of the Board of Stewards and members of the Watkinsville church, May's church, and John son’s church.
