In spite of clouds that threatened rain throughout the entire day, the Easter services at the Methodist church drew great congregations. Long before Sunday school hour in the morn ing the crowds began to assemble and at night the crowd overflowed at every door and window, standing room being at a premium wherever a view could he had of the Easter pageant, “The Tomb in the Garden.” Tills day was the climax of a series of services that have broken all records for church attendance in Winder. Es pecially has this been true of the even ing services and of the Sunday school. At the former, the church has been filled both at the extra song services and for the preaching hours. The Sun day school lias maintained a steady av erage without contest or special feat ures, that eclipses anything ever done by this school In past years. At no service recently have the two large auditoriums been adequate to accommo date to accommodate the entire Sun day school. The Junior and Primary children gave a beautiful Easter program at the close of Sunday school, while nt the morning service, in addition to the Easter music, the pastor preached the Easter sermon on the theme, “Witnesses to the Resurrection.” The annual Easter pageant, for which this sliursh is noted, and which always draws many out-of-town vis itors, was given at night with the va rious departments of the Sunday school teachers, choir and orchestra partici pating. The scene was laid in Joseph of Arimathea’s garden and to the tomb oace tiie soldiers of Pilate, the women, the angels and the disciples, telling in the words of the gospels the story of the Resurrection on the first Easter morning. The interest was iptense throughout, showing what impressions were being made on the hearts of young and old, as they saw. acted out before them, the soldiers flying in fear, roll ing away of the stone, the coming of the women with spices, and the en trance of Peter and John into the tomb. Ahpropriate music was rendered throughout by the choir and orchestra, both for the crucifixion scene and tiie resurrection. The entire company of participants also took part in the Pro cessional. making a brilliant sight with their varied costumes as they marched out of tiie church singing tin* Easter hymn, “Christ, tiie laird, is Risen to day.” Such a program is a spiritual as a sermon. It was listened to with even greater reverence, and made the Easter story very real to those who were privileged to be present. Those taking the principal parts in tiie pageant were Messrs. F. P. Page, Hurrah Nowell, Elton Drake, Julian Ross, Oarl Brooksher, Misses Montine Robinson, Dorothy Rowland. Margaret White. Flossie Henson. Allene Kilgore and Edna Blancks. The directors of tiie pageant Mrs. R. H. Kimball, also Mrs. G. C. Moseley, who had charge of tiie costumes, and Mrs. Will Burch, in charge of tiie scenic background, de serve much of the eridit for the suc cess of tin* pageant. Miss Annette Qull lian was director of the orchestra and Miss Stella Cotter trained the young ladies chorus. The Sunday school orchestra render ed several splendid numbers and added much to the beauty of the service. The members of tills efficient organisation are Messrs. Wiley Barber, Sidney Eb erhart, Frank Bondurant, Bertram Radford, Sam Autry. W. C. Horton, Jr., Alton Young and Misses Willie Mae Eavenson and Annette Quillian.

Judge Superior Court, Barrow county, Geor crjjjl # We the Grand Jury, sworn for the March terms 11*22 of the Barrow Su perior Court, beg to submit the fol lowing report: Through committees for the purpose, we have — Inspected chaingang and road prop erty, Era mined J. P. & N. P. Docket books, Examined the books of County Dili cers, Inspected Roads and Bridges, Inspected Jail and Court House, Attached herewith are reports of each committee. The committee appointed to investi gate the County officers Books, report that all tin* books of the county have te en audited by a certified public ac countant and found no inaccuracies. Everything seems to be in good shape ami we commend our county officers for the neat manner in which all the books and records have been kept. The committee apointed to inspect the jail and court house, report that they find everything in good shape and well kept, except a break in the jail floor and we recommend that this be patched at once. We especially com mend the sheriff’s wife for the neat and cleanly manner in which she keeps the jail and premises. The committee appointed to inspect chaingang and road property, report tliat they have made a full examination of the camp and find everything in per fect condition. Also stock-yards well kept. The committee appointed to inspect j. p. & N. p. Docket books, report that they find all that was turned in to be correct. The dockets from Bethlehem, Chandlers and Cains districts were not sent in. The committee appointed to inspect roads and blrdges report that some of the bridges in the county need repair ing. Especial attention is called to a bridge on the headwaters of Beech creek, a bridge across Butts creek.. This bridge has fallen and is impass ble. Also the bridge across Marberry ('reek at the Smith and Thompson old mill site. The roads in the northwest side of the county are reported to be in good condition, with the exception of the road from Wood place begin ning at main Athens road and run ning southwest to H. P. Hardigree’s and on and connecting back up the Athens road at New Timothy station. The roads on the south side of the county average as good as they have been heretofore at this time of the year except the road leading from the Hog Mountain road to Bethlehem. The Or dinary should he complimented for his efforts to put the county roads in good don dit ion.! We commend Judge Parker for not paying Mr. Baldwin a claim of S6OO balance due on contract on account of defective work. There has been quite an agitation in the county to establish a City Court and to employ county policemen. After inquiring from all sections of the county as to the wishes of the peo- ple in regard to establishing a City Court and employing county policemen, we deem it wise for this matter to lie settled by the people at the next gen eral election. The majority of the voters nt this election determining the status of these two questions. The congestion of the present dock ets were partly caused by the war. Several sessions of the Court were not held, thereby causing the cast's to lie held over. The wishes of the Grand Jury are that further burdens of taxes be not imposed upon our citizens. This congestion was caused in the past by the slow process of trying cases. We recommend that the Court and attorneys practicing in same he more expedient in dispatching business, thereby avoiding much dWay in hand ling county affairs and thereby saving the county money. At the request of our Governor and Solicitor Dean, we have investigated the charge made by one. Rev. Henning ham, that he was taken out of the city of Winder by masked men and wliiyp pd. We have thoroughly investigated this matter aiul sent out subpoenas to find Rev. Henninghnm. We do not find anything on which to base any criminal proceedings. We wish to thank the Hon. Judge H. A. Mathews who presided the first week of the Court, for his courtesy and able charge given our body. We wish to commend the manner in which our Hon. Blanton Fortson is ex pediting business the second week in dispatching business and imposing chain gank sentences in liquor cases instead of the nominal fine which is us ually considered a license to deal in the nefarious stuff. We wish to extend our thanks to our Solicitor General, Hon. W. O. Dean, for tiie able assistance he lias render ed our body. We also wish to extend our thanks to our efficient bailiff. Mr. G. B. Mat thews. for the manner in which he has waited on our body. We recommend that these present ments be published in The Winder News and ten dollars he paid for same. This the 4th day of April, 11122.

THE WINDER NEWS GAINESVILLE MID LAND DEPOT BURNS Monday moving just after 3:09 o'clock the Gainesville Midland Depot and contents were completely destroy ed by fire. The fire was not discovered untii it had such headway that saying the building or contents was impossible. The heroic effort of the voluntary fire department prevented the fire from spreading to adjoining buildings which were dangerously exposed. W. P. De lta Perriere and Son’s warehouse and H. J. Lott's warehouse were the ad joining buildings and in these were stored many bales of cotton and other stuff vrflued at several thousand dol lars. The depot at the time of the fire contained more than $4,000 of freight, partly covered by insurance. The cause of the fire is thought to be of an incendiary origin hut no clue lias been found. Three strange men who were in town early on the morning of tlie fire were detained as suspicious characters. They gave their names as Chlpley, Stern and Gardner, of Atlanta, two of them gave Attanta references. After a thorough investigation they were released as no evidence could lie found to connect them with the confla gration, according to the license tag number on the Ford car they were driving revealed the fact that it was of an Augusta address.—Hoschton News. Rev. S. R. Grubb De livers Notable Address The Greenville, S. C„ News makes the following mention of a great ad dress delivered in that city recently by Rev. Stanley R. Grubb, recent pastor of the Christian church of this city: “An address in which he urged loy alty to the nation, the church and the home was one of the outstanding fea tures of the afternoon sessions yester day of the state Christian Endeavor convention at the First Presbyterian church, the address being made Dr. Stanley R. Grubb, pastor of the First Christian church of Columbia. It was one of the interesting talks and discus sions of the morning and afternoon dis cussions.” Prof. J. B. Brookshire is in Colum bus this week atending the Ga. Edu cation association. TAKING NO CHANCE A colored preacher in Alabama had at one time served a short jail sentence and was fearful, lest Ills congregation discover the fact as in his later years he had been a model of rectitude. One Sunday rising to begin his sermon, his heart sank to see a former cell-mate sit ting in the front row. Quick thinking was necessary. Fixing his eye on the unwelcome guest, the preacher an nounced solemnly: ‘Ah takes mah text dis mo’nin from de sixty-fo’th chapter and fo’hundreth verse of de book of Jot>, which says: ‘Dem ns sees and knows me. and says nothing: dem will Ah see later.’ ” Pathfinder.
