Revival services will begin at Mt.
Pleasant church next Sunday. Let's
all go.
The following program was ren
dered at the H. E. B. Wednesday
night:
Song—Society.
Invocation—C. O. Salter.
Business Proceedings.
—okes—Susie Mae Salter.
Reading—Louvele Salter.
Solo—Paul Salter.
An original play, entitled “The
Newly Wedded Couple"—Audrey
Avery, Paul .Salter, Jack Martin, Roy
Burnum and Lauvele Salter. The
Drama was wholly original nd it
brought frequent applause. The play
continued about twenty five minutes.
For the benefit of those who failed
to hear the previous discussion and
for other reasons the subject, Res
olved, “Tht the World is Growing
Worse,” was discussed again. Af
firmative— Rev. C. O. Salter. Neg
ative—Andrew Avery. The debate
was a heated contest and despite the
impression of the four act wedding
drama, the (flpbate was considered
the feature of the program. Not be
cause any big oratory was stressed
or tremenduous eloquence observed,
but because of the sharp tilts of the
speakers. The question involved 3
subjects, viz: finance, morality and
religion. But the affirmative speak
er demanded a biblical discussion of
the subject and this of course, prac
tically eliminated finance and moral
ity. Rev. Salter in his opening speech
took a short rap at the financial con
dition of our country; attacked the
immorality of the Prohibition law and
outspokenly assailed the many relig
ious institutions and denominations.
He launched a vigorous broadside at
all churches which do not bear the
name of Chript and baptize (not spr
inkle) for the remission of sins. And
moreover those that are governed
by revisable Decorums. Rev. Salter
sought permission to ask the negative
side pertain questions which was
granted anti promptly answered. He
was not interrupted throughout his
discourse.
Avery speaking for the negative
endeavored to give credit for sub
stantiated points, but refute all oth
ers. He began with early mankind,
hs ignorance, his mode of life, etc.,
and in a comparative manner he at-
tem p*'<i to as far as accessible to
trace manhood and his relationship
with finance, morality, religion and
society up to the present time. After
summarizing religious persecutions,
past wars, etc., in a brief way he then
took up the affirmative’s argument
on religious affairs. The presiding
officer failed to deny the affirmative
speaker the right to interrupt the
negative. This of course had a tend
ency to remove restrictions of order
and a squabble ensued. The speak
ers took up various verses from
Genesis to Revelation and the hoi
argument followed sor about forty-
five minutes until the affirmative
speaker gave up his attempt. A re
buttal was offered which caused every
move to be friction. The audience
applauded the speakers and at in
tervals and at the close of every tilt
cheers of laughter, holler, or hand
clapping rung throughout the house.
G. W. Dean, Jack Martin and Wat
son Norris were selected to judge the
case. At the end of the affirmative
speaker’s rebuttal the negative speak
er’s judge and the call judge realiz
ed that the affirmative side had failed
to prove the assertion they surrend
ered the score chart to the affirm
ative’s judge who laid it down and
they failed to give the negative
speaker credit for points knocked out
of canceled.
The debate was the biggest discus
sion since the “Grace falling possibil
ity and impossibility” was debated
and which Mr. Salter won, has at
tracted considerable attention. The
negative side won.
Three counties were represented
Mr. J. A. Sellers, who resides over
on the Albany road had the misfor
tune of a partly burn-out Tuesday
night. The flames consumed his en
tire barns, cribs and all attachments.
The community regrets his loss. The
orgiin of the fire s unknown.
Mr. Ira Bates accompanied by a
number of popular teachers, 'com
munity Belles, etc., deluding Misses
Edna Di4on, Maud Swiconl, Janie
Dixon and Vasta McCullough, of Cli
max district, attended the H. E. B.
Wednesday night.
Mr. Charlie Hammond and Misses
Flossie Brunum, Onnie Brunum, Es-
tell Hammond, Rosa Lee Hammond.
Bertha and Jewell Burnum wen
among those attending the H. E. B
from Yadu.
Mr. Alex Lodge, of Mt. Pleasant,
and Miss Alice Harrell, of Vada, were
at the Society Wednesday night.
Messrs. Carl Brock. Emory Dol-
11. . .Tory Harrell and wives, of Pros
perity, attended the H. E. B. Wed
nesday night.
The alt-day singing at Mt. Pleasant
church Friday was a b g success.
Many singing classes were represent
ed. All co-operated with Professor
Cooper’s class and one another and
good singing was the order of the
day. All the program was to the
point but the remarkable features of
the afternoon session was a solo—
“Christ on the Tree” by Miss Bertha
Burnum in which she portrayed a
great dignity which resulted in many
compliments. The next was a Bass
Solo sung by Prof. Wyatt Cooper and
Miss Rosa Lee Hammond and thor
oughly enjoyed. Delmar Gillespie, a
young ten day student was on the
program and is worthy of commenda
tion for the skillful manner in which
he sang his three songs.
Dinner was spread and those who
didn’t enjoy the occasion were those
who had to pick cotton and couldn’t
attend.
Miss Flossie Brunum, teaher of
Prosperity school, and Miss Edna
Dixon who taught the Heath school
last term are among those of the
county who succeeded in making a
first grade elementary certificate.
They are elated to know they have
won success and of which their many
friends are justly proud.
Mr. Leo Williams, Miss Velma Wil
liams, Miss Mary Ward, of Mari
ana, Florida; and Miss Alma Pre-
vatte, of Vada, dined with Mrs. S. H.
Salter and Mrs. Jenny Hornsby Sat
urday.
Mrs. W. H. Whitley, or Salt City,
is with Mrs. Lola Salter. Mrs. Salt
er, one of the most hospitable ladies
entertained the singing club Sunday
afternoon in honor of her mother,
Mrs. Whitjey. Abput thirty boyn
and girls composed the crew. It is
unnecessary to say the occason was
enjoyable for success is always the
result of this particular group.
Rev. Chester Williamson delivered
very impressive and fruitful sermon
here Sunday. Mr. Williamson is a
brilliant young man, capable, com
petent and conscientious—a friend
and keeper. He has a host of ad
mirers among the younger set who
gladly welcome him here.
The church especially requests ev
ery church member to meet Elder C.
O. Salter at church next Saturday
morning at 10:00 o'clock for business
purposes.

Judge R. C. Bell Candi
date for the Court of Ap
peals to Succeed Himself
Judge R. C. Bell, of Cairo, Grady
county, who was recently appointed
Judge of the Court of Appeals to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
Judwge Benjamin H. Hill is a candi
date to succeed himself both for the
short term and the full term. His
name therefore, will appear on the
ticket twice, unopposed for the short
term, which is for only about six
weeks between the November gen
eral election and January the 1st, to
finish out Judge Hill’s unexpired
term. It will appear with that of
another candidate for the full term
to begin January the 1st.
He submits his candidacy for the
full term for your thoughtful consid
eration.
His record as a lawyer, Solicitor-
General, and Superior Court Judge
will fully justify the people in re
taining him for the full term. He
asks to be given a trial.
Judge Bell is now in the prime of
life; physically strong, willing to
work, and accustomed to nothing
else. He was born and reared on
a farm in Webster county, and is 42
years of age. He worked out his own
education by his own efforts, has
made his own way by sheer pluck and
determination, and is acquainted with
the hardships of life.
He is endorsed by EVERY lawyer
of the Albany circuit of which he
was judge when appointed to the
Court of Appeals, and by every bank
or banker in that circuit. He has
been highly commended by the press,
and has assurances of support from
every section of the State.
Vote for him for the full term. H.e
will bo deeply grateful, and you will
never regret it.
