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).

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.
