BARACA CLASS
HOLDS AN INTER
ESTING SESSION
An unusually interesting meeting of
the Baraca Class of the Methodist
church was held last Sunday, in a class
that never lacks in interest. One of the
features was the visit of the Philathea
{•lass, who came in a body, owing to
the absence of their teacher.
But the main feature, as usual was
the lecture of the teacher, Mrs. A. 1).
McCurry, on the “Message of Malachi.”
! As someone remarked, it was the great
est sermon on Stewardship that he had
J ever heard, and from that session the
large body of men anjl women went
with serious thought, and a stronger
determination to be faithful in the
service of God.
Such a class wields an influence for
good in a community that cannot be
estimated, especially, as the lessons
learned are put into practice through
the week by these men of affairs in ev
ery walk of life.

LEWIS RUSSELL
HAD LARGE PART
IN JUSTICE RACE
Untiring Efforts Helped to Make His
Brother, .Judge Richard B. Rus
s 11, Georgia’s Chief
Justice.
Lewis C. Russell, lawyer of the firm
of Russell A Chandler, of Winder,
played the part of leading man behind
the scenes in the successful campaign
of liis brother, Judge Richard B. Rus
sell. for the office of chief justice of
the state supreme court.
The important part of campaign
manager is often overlooked in the suc
cess and personality of the winning
candidate; hut it may he said while
Judge Russell is widely and well-known
over Georgia, the splendid work of
Lewis Russell contributed in no small
degree to his brother’s overwhelming
election.
Lewis Russell is a graduate of the
University of Georgia, class of 1891.
and he has many friends all over the
state, who were prompt in responding
to his requests for assistance in the
campaign. He has been engaged in
the practice of law for 25 years, so is
well-known to the lawyers of Georgia
many of whom strongly supported his
brother. He is an active, energetic and
enthusiastic worker, untiring in his
effort, and he never let up for a minute
during the entir • campaign. He was
the first in headquarters in the morn
ing and tr.e lust to leave at night. He
had entire charge of the correspon
dence and wrote several thousand let
ters in connection with his brother’s
campaign.
Two things of which Mr. Russell is
especially proud in connection with the
campaign, he states, are that this is
the first time in a quarter of a centu
ry that a supreme court justice ever
I got Oil that bench without first being
appointed by the governor; and in flic
second place that in the entire corre
spondence from headquarters, or with
'which he had anything to do. never
Once was it mentioned that Judge Rus-
Jsell had an opponent in the race.
There was never one word said in the
entire sampaign correspondence about
Judge Fish. Mr. Russell states, nor
was his name even mentioned in any
letter written in connection with the
contest.
' Mr. Russell has been widely compli
mented upon the fine work he did in his
brother's behalf, and he is naturally
very proud of the successful termina
tion of the campaign.
BRING THE BABY
TO THE FIRST
BAPTIST CHURCH
Let him cry. That is all right. The
1 Girls’ Auxiliary under the wise leader
ship of Mrs. S. F. Maughou, have
agreed to look after the lusty young
sters while their mothers are at preach
ing. and the Ladies Aid Society, Mas.
W. L Bush, president, will provide
the equipment and comforts necessary.
The First Baptist wants tired mothers
to have the Sabbath hours of public
worship to rest themselves in body as
well as in soul. All mothers welcome.
Poor Old Febrifuge.
In the little town of Febrifuge
Live Andy Klutch and Ezra Scrooge
[ And Riley Pinch and Newton Greed,
, Wherefore the place lias gone to seed.
They claw their petty hoards and moan
And whine and screech in frenzied tone
' And hold their ears and hump their
backs,
'.At every bint of further tax
To push the jsior old shabby place
Two inches forward in the race,
I And shout that, by the Jumpin’ gee!—
lit suited Dad, and it suits me!
I And so it isn’t e’en a town
Where busy folk go up and down,
I But just a wide spot in the road,
A sleeping place for man and toad,
Made so by stingy Ezra Scrooge
And eke bis ilk. Poor Febrifuge!
