THE BAINBRIDGE POST-SEARCH LIGHT
PINE HILL COURIER
Tht> regular program, which was
ar.ncii for Friday, was suspended
cept the following:
Challenge debate. Resolved, That
hiskey is more Injurious to Society
the Automobile. Affirmative,
’•crior speakers—Aubrey McDon-
i, Bill West. Negative, group 1.
jakers—Carter Martin, Lonnie Mc-
•amery. The debate ended a series
challenges which has been exist-
betwen the two literary teams.
^ discussion attracted considerable
ietition as the subject for discus-
ras one of special moment to
,:h students and visitors. From the
ginning the argument was hotly
r,tested. The extreme competition,
perhaps, to the final decision,
ending which would determine the
ding group. The judges, Mr. D.
Humphrey, Mrs. Mattie Lou Ed-
.nds and Miss Grace Reed, deci-
•d in favor of group Alteriora.
Quite a numbeof our people went
-r to Eldorendo Sunday, and rep
ented Bethel church in singing
r.test. Due to unfavorable weath
r and the Dengue epidemic only a
, w of the Eldorendo fplks respond-
1. Those who attended report a
leasant occasion.
Miss Mattie Gardener, of Fountain
{-ad district, gave an entertain-
Rent and luncheon party in honor of
,J»ss Maude McGlamery, of this com-
ninity. Those going; from here were
Dus Maude McGlamery, Miss Olga
Lberts, Robbie Campbell, Idus
hmpbell, Rob Campbell, and Mj\
i iil Mrs. C. N. Edmunds. The in-
itees say that the evning was one of
v«ort and all imaginable pleasures
rtre witnessed. The hostess will be
, r,g remembered in return for her
i-.'voted hospitality.
With deepest most sincere regret
announce the departure of two of
iur most popular school girls, Miss
's Idus and Susie LeRoy. Idus and
Susie came from their home in Lin-
ln county to live with their sister,
Mrs. G. A. McGlamery, and to attend
hool in Bainbridge, but wer%later
induced to enter school here, while
they have made a wonderful im
pression. They are thorohgh im the
general principlse of art, science and
literature, and have been a credit
to our school. Their sister and bro
ther, Mr. and Mrs. Robert McGlam
ery, have moved into Brinson dis
trict; therefore they have netered
Brinson High School. Idys is a sen
ior and Susie a junior. A letter of
introduction was tendered to them
by the junior class, and signed by
all the members of the high school
faculty. We will miss them irre
pressibly. They are girls of great
promise and influence in this school
and community, and are highly res
pected by everybody. We know that
Brinson school will find them an ac
quisition to its social life, and they
may look upon Pine Hill as their
sponsors.
The challenge debate held between
the senior class and the junior class
here Thursday was one worthy of
special mention. The subject was,
Resolved, That a Thief is More Det-
rimnetal to Society than a Liar. The
junior class had the affirmative and
was represented by Miss Alwayne
Bowers and Miss Susie LeRoy. The
senior class was represented by Miss
Lois White and Miss Idys LeRoy. The
ability of the speakers caused the de
bate to be a hard fought one. The
judges, Misses Cora Lee Conway and
Mr. Wilmer Culbreath decided in fa
vor of the junior class.
The girls have begun playing ball
here. The team was organized this*
week. Miss Grace Reed was elected
manager and Miss Thelma Humph
rey was elected secretary. The girls
always win out over the boys, and
we feel safe in saying their team will
be able to compete with any young
team in the county.
Carroll Cumbie, secretary for the
group No. 1 of the literary society,
tendered his resignation, which was
accepted Friday. Miss Alwayne Bow
ers was appointed to succed him tem
porarily. A vote of regret upon their
departure and sincere well-wishes for
their future, was unanimously ex
tended to Misses Idys and Susie Le
Roy, who have planed to enter school

Taste and See
YOU often hear automobile owners say “What
* is under the hood is what counts." Good
looks count, but they never took you “there” and
brought you back.
Talking about Coffee—it isn’t the package, but
what’s inside of it that counts. And you can’t tell
fine coffee by “seeing’’ but by “tasting.”
Of course a good package is essential to preserve
the coffee, but you can only take out of the most
elaborate package ever made the coffee that was
put into it.
Tasting is much better, much more profitable,
more satisfying than seeing, when it comes to
buying coffee. .
Buy a pound of White House Coffee. Taste and
see for yourself how good it is. It is the finest
coffee grown, not packed to catch the eye but to
satisfy the taste.
Try a pound today.

WHITE HOUSE
MOORE INQUIRES AS
TO HIS COMMISSION
Congressman-Elect From First
District Consults With Gov.
Hardwick Regarding the Con
test Filed by Opponent-
ATLANTA, Nov. 18.—Congress-
man-elect R. Lee Moore, from the
first congressional district, called on
Governor Hardwick today to discuss
the matter of the issue of his commis
sion, and the formalities necessary,
in view of the contest to be filed by
Don Clarke, the republican candidate
in the Chatham county vote.
The governor has told Mr. Moore
the law provides that an executive
proclamation shall issue in 20 days
after the election, declaring the re
sult and, within 30 days from the
date of the proclamation, the com
mission shall be delivered to the suc
cessful candidate, but if in 30 days
demand is not made for the commis
sion the governor shall order another
election. In complance with this law
Mr. Moore was directed to make a
written application for his commis
sion immediately after the proclama
tion is issued and it will then be sent
him promptly. Then, said the gov
ernor, it is up to the national house
of representatives what attention is
given to Clarke's contest, if any.
In view of the fact that Clarke re
ceived less than 200 votes in the en
tire district, it is not likely that his
contest will be given serious consid
eration by congress.

Miss Gladys Long has entered the
school here.
We are glad to report that Miss
Lucile Powell is improving from ser
ious burns recently sustained.
Miss Thelma Humphrey, who has
been seriously ill, is back in school
again.
Remember the young folks pro
gram here every Saturday night, and
Sunday School every Sunday after

The Miracle Trio to be presented
here Wednesday night, Nov. 29th,
promises to be a popular perform
ance. Mr. J. J. Wicker, cashier of
the First National Ban kof Camilla,
has received many favorable editor
ial comments since he went to At
lanta and demonstrated his ability
to pluck music from a hand-saw, ov
er the radiophone. Mr. Wicker is
able to master alntost any string mu

Ira's First Football Game
Bainbridge, Ga., Nov. 18, 1922.
Dear Mr. Editor:
Did you ever attend a laotball
game? I know you have, though,
for that is ail the rage in Bainbridge.
Why here, if you are not a football
fan, you ain't in it at all. Just like
if you don't dance.
Well, I'd never seen a game, and
I couldn't talk intelligently around
here, for all everybody says around
here has to do with Pro. Stackhouse's
warriors—or some other nickname.
So I decided to go to Albany, and see
the game between Bainbridge and
Albany, and learn all about it, bo I
wouldn't be such a stick in conversa
tion. I went along with over 200 oth
er Bainbridge people, who all went
wild hollering "Bainbridge" on those
Albany streets, flossing up their ears
with purple and yellow ribbon, and
wearing some of them on their
clothes.
Well, as 1 went to learn it all, I
did the same thing r.nd 1 liked the I
color scheme so well that not only)
did I doll up my car, but I tied a |
bow in my coat lapel and wrapped!
some around my hat. I know 1 look
ed like an Easter parade, and I
thought of the gay colors I used to
wear back home when it come n-sun-
Wanting to loam absolutely all
about the game, I asked him what he
was doing, and he said that he was
playing football, and that ho .was an
athlete, having played on the Inter
national rorrespondece School team.
That bird ain't no athlete, for all he
has ever done was to run a Ford,
throw a line, pitch his voice and
catch a cold.
So, football with all those things
is a funny game, but I pm glad I ruw
it and know all about it, so now I
can talk it big and figure out how we
are going to bent Moultrie Thanks
giving Day.
Yours very truly,
FOOTBALL IRA.

day.
I sure was proud that I was from
Bainbridge, too—everybody was so
enthusiastic. We went out to the
game and found our side of the field
plumb full of Bainbridge people, and
the other side crowded with the Al
bany fans. I reckon they separated
them so they wouldn't fight. There
was the field itself full of fellows—
our team and the Albany team—and
the ywere dressed in sweaters nnd
breeches too big for them, and hob
nailed shoes. Most of them wore
funny looking caps, big enough to
tote water in. It took me a long
time to figure out the home team,
for you can't recognize nobody out
there.
Well, first somebody kfic’ked the
ball and another man caught it, and
run headlong the other way with
what semed like about fifty fellows
running after and into him. It was- 1
n‘t long before they caught him and
threw him to the ground. That must
have hurt, for I've been thrown from
a horse, and I know. Then they lin
ed up opposite each other, and one
fellow chuncked the ball between his
legs at somebody. That lookad fun
ny to me. Anyhow, a» soon as that
was done I could see nothing but a
mountain of arms and legs all piled
up. And that's the way it was all
during the ‘game—just running and
catching and throwing them down.
Don't they ever get mad and fight
out there? I don't see how they
could help it.
But I learned all about football,
and I even felt tingling sensations
run up and down my back after I
learned the Bainbridge players and
what they were trying to do with
the ball. At first, I yelled every
time Polly Anderson did, which was
most of the time that it seemed like
we were winning—but after while
I knew when to yell just as good l
And it wag a happy yell, too—not the
kind I used to call up the hogs with.
The game is so easy to learn. I
knew practically all about it after a
few minutes of play, and there is
lots of kick in it, too. One of the
funny things I saw, though, was a
guy from Bainbridge out there on
the field with a watch in his hand,
like he was going Home place and was
afraid he would miss his train.
