vised by Miss Cora Lee Conoway, who
was assisted by the other teachers,
Misses Lucile Fitzgerald, Katie Hum
phrey, Maude McGJarnery and Corra
Stricklan, music teacher. The play
was entitled “The Development of
Our State.” The characters were ar
rayed in suitable costumes, and ex
celled themselves in the performance
us Indians, Negroes, etc., and in a
brief, pointed and compact form they
dramatized and illustrated the be
ginning of the organization and de
velopment of our state up to the pres
ent day of cnligtenment. Each par
ticipant manifested sufficient interest
and endeavored to make the enter
prise a success. Many visitors were
present, and all expresed apprecia
tion for the delightful occasion. Di-

On the morning of Sept. 11th that
dread visitor, the Death Angel, came
into the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. M.

He had been sick about six months
and the entire period of his illness j
was a lesson in patience for those Banking House 2,600.00

bore the most severe pain uncom
plainingly, at the same time sympa
thizing deeply with any other suffer
ers of whom he heard.
Mr. Bell was 77 years old, one of
the few remaining sons of the South
who served in the Civil war.
While yet a young man he joined
the Primitive Baptist church, and he
was a faithful member so long as he
lived.
He had a strong sense of duty and
did’nt believe fn waiting for the other
fellow to carry all the load.
He spent much time in the train
ing of his children and grand child
ren, from which they . have surely
profited.
We miss him, oh how we miss him,
but we would not call him hack, for
his has been a long and hard race,
and he deserves the rest promised
and which he so firmly believed in.
Indeed, we know that his faith in this
matter was what enabled him to .bear
is affliction wit such gentle patience.
He is at rest, and when the time
comes for us all to answer the great
roll call may we be as well prepared
as he was.
We laid his body to rest in Olive
Grove cemetery. ..The beautiful floral
offering attested the esteem of his
friends.
He leaves his wife, Mrs. W. R.
Bell, and five children, Mrs. J. M.
Robinson, and Mr. L. W. Bell,., of
Faceville, Ga., Mrs. J. H. Dean, of

offering something “just as good” be
cause it pays a better profit, the fact
still stands that ninety nine out of
