GRAHAM, 73 YEARS OLD, HAS PASSED AWAY He Was Remarkable In Many Ways, And Not Only His Family, But The Whole Community Loses A Valuable Cit^jten Fayetteville has lost, heaven has ■gained in the death of Mr. J. W. Gra- hain, who passed away September 13, a fqw, afafks of|49^ rllfe of 72 years was remarkable ,ny ways, and not only his family, but -the whole community in which he lived has suffered a great loss. fiut we know the meeting with his laved'ones and friends was a happy one. It was our pleasure to be associated with him in many ways and we thought with him in many ways, and we thought him one of the county’s most useful citizens. He was always ready lo'aid in any good cause, and all that was necessary was to let him know what he could do. He represented Fayette county in the legislature, serv ed the county as president of the Gpunty Sunday School Association and for a dumber of years was clerk of the .Superior court. He was always ready to serve the people in any way he could. Dow .superb was his devotion to his chtlrch and the kingdom of God. As a husband, father, grandfather, friend 'and in all the relations of life he was so tender and sweet. As a Confeder ate veteran he was brave and true. We will ever look upon his life as one who walked day by day with hfijp&aster and who is now waiting for those who follow in his foosteps. He is survived by his wife and son, Mr/ Russell Graham, of Texas, six daughters, Mesdames J. A. Lester, W. S. Turnipseed, J. A. Burch and Misses Laraine and Mary Lou Grabam, all of tlvip county, and Mrs. Lillian Smith, of Texas. Dr. O, T. Malone left last Sunday for New* rfaven,’ Conn., /where he will tiki?'ll!) his Work-as lieutenant in 'ttf® fci'kiy. Dr. Malone had a good pikd tice and his many friends in the coun ty join The News in wishing him a safp return. We recently heard a Canadian sol dier say that he had no fear as to the boys in the trenches doing their part. He said they were giving all they had. The people back at home were the ones who would retard the bringing the war to a close. There are many people in our county who have not bought any war savings stamps. There are some who bought $20 worth who ought to have bought $100 worth. There are some people who have not bought bonds. Some have done nothing for Red Cross. Some have done nothing for the Young Men’s Christian Association. How these people can claim to be loyal and patriotic we can’t understand. The boys in the trenches are doing their best. You are due the same if you stay here. Have you done your best? Gordon, Ga., Sept. 16, 1918. Dear News: Any that have relatives with our army in France, if you will send me their address, as I have access to such will see that they get the very best that the Y. M. C. A. can do for a fel low. My present address is Y. M. C. A. Training School, Blue Ridge, Ga. In the future it will be: American Y. M. BROOKS. Mrs. E. S'. Cooper of Senoia, former ly of Brooks, was buried at Brooks Tuesday afternoon. The funeral exer cises were conducted by her pastor, Rev. Maxwell of Senoia. She had been in poor health for several months. She is survived by her hus band, one child and several brothers. To the bereaved we tender our sympa thies. The Sunday schools composing the fourth division of the County Sunday School Association, will hold their first quarterly meeting at Whitewater church the 13th of Ocotber at 7:30 p. m. It is hoped to have a good attend ance and a report from each school in the division. The division is com posed of the following schools: Inman, Mesdames J. W.< Pritchett and G. H. Eas'tfen attended the [Woman’s Mis sionary Baptist Union at Griffin this week. The Junior Order was reorganized here last Monday by State Secretary J. p. Loveless. This is a young man’s order and has more than two hun dred and fifty members in the county. ' NUSON NIBBLES. J. H. Massengale made a business trip to South Georgia last week. He visited the packing plant at Moultrie while there. Several of our young people attend ed the singing at Antioch Sunday af ternoon. W. L. Jones and wife of Rest visited E. S.

Mr. and Mrs. Taylor and children of West Florida passed through here Tuesday from North Carolina, where they had spent the summer. Mrs. Taylor was a daughter of Mr. James Manley, who moved from here to Tex* as several years ago. While here she met with two of her old school mate, Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Ward and her cousin, S. F. Matthews. The next session of the Fayette County Singing Association will meet here on the fifth Sunday and Saturday before in September. Several promi nent singers are expected to be pres ent. LARGE ACREAGE OF WHEAT TO »E SOWN. Reports being, received by the Bu reau of Crop Estimates from all wheat growing sections show that plans are being carried out to increase the acre age of wheat belts. The work is be ing held up in some districts only be cause lack of rain has prevented fall plowing and preparation of the seed bed. Washington reports: “If rains oc cur, an extraordinarily large fall-wheat acreage will be sown.” In Indiana, much ground has been plowed for fall sowing, reports state, and an excep tionally large acreage is predicted. In Kansas great preparations have been made all over the State for fall sow ing. Similar reports come from, Mis souri, Iowa, Montana and other states. C. A.

STEEL, Court, Fayette County, Columbia Grafonola and Columbia Records Certainly, you may try it at your home’ C ENDING an instrument home so ^ that the whole family can put the Columbia Grafonola to the final test under the very conditions under which it will be played, is one of the ways Columbia Grafonolas are sold. to Can anything be fairer ?
