VOLITMK 5, JiU. IS REVIVAL SERVICES GROW ' ING IN INTEREST "Monday niglit Dr. 11am and Ids assistant, ('apt. Spooner arrived and at the regular evening sevice opened wliat promises to be one of the best meetings held in Win tier for years. A large number of committees to look after the detail work t>f the meeting bad been appointed and were on.their job. ('apt. Spooner is a singer of na tional reputation having extensive experience in the army and in the ■famous ’napman meet ings throughout the nation. lie has organized a splendid choir composed of members of all the churches in Town and the boys and girls. Asa soloist he is great, but his genius is conducting congregation al music, and one is carried hack to the good old days of the past as the great throngs sing “Jesus Lov er of ATy Soul,” to the "tune of “Silver Threads Among the God” “Holy Manna” and numbers of the choice old songs and the very best of new ones. It is the universal opinion of our citizens that no greater song lead er has ever struck our parts. Dr. I lam is at his best, lie was here last year; our people knew what to expect. He comes fresh from a gloriouus victory in paying k >ff the indebtedness of the Taber- Tiacle, and from a great revival in his own church. Asa preacher he is intensely earnest, and evangelically ortlior <!ox, sensational of couurse, and as fearless as was Elijah of old,and yet withal as gentle and lovable and tender in his ministry as Hli- Jjah. Profiteers. political grafters, v srldly minded Christians, society vuuers. dancers, gamblers and sin in general finds no comfort in his sermonizing and yet with passion ate and prophetic zeal he holds up Christ as the Saviour and the blood as the remedy for sin. "Wednesday afternoon in compa ny with a number of Winder citi zens, Dr. Ham visited Statham and preached to a fine congregation of attentive listners, a number of the Statham citizens are attending the meetings. Sunday afternoon at 3 o’clock this active team of workers will accompany Kev. W. H. Faust to 'Bethabara in Oconee county and have charge of the service. The meetings will continue thru next week, daily at 10:30 a. in., K p. m., except Saturday. The high esteem in which this splendid evangelistic team is held by our people is evidenced ly the large numbers of our people in at tendance ami the enthusiastic ami wholehearted support given them by all the pastors, churches and ehristians in this section. You will not want to miss the Sunday services, nor can you af ford to miss the morning sermons that are Biblical and expository in character. CHRISTIAN CHURCH. R. E. Moss. Minister.

Much talking is not always an indication of sucres. Jn fact most all of us news paper men, preachers, lawyers, doctors, business men and farmers talk too much and do too little. : We are all, unfortunately, con ceited, feel our importance, and deep down in our hearts fan our egotism and believe we are just a little smarter than any one else. This leads us all into error and causes us to show our weaknesses and our ignorance by talking too much and trying to force our opin ions on others. Most of us are like the old wom an who was an incessant and eter nal talker, but always prefaced her remark by asserting “she was a woman of very few words.” Winder has a man who can be claimed as an exception in this particular respect, and as a rule can he called a man of few words. The Times refers to Mr. John M. Williams, president of the Har row County Cotton Mills, direct or in Winder National Bank, di rector in Smith-Mayne Manufact uring Cos., director in the Bell Man it factoring Cos., and one of the I large cotton buyers of Georgia. Mr. Williams is a native of this county, reared on 1 lie farm six miles from Winder. , He is unusuming, liberal in all public and charitable undertak ings, attends to his own business and has made a marvelous success as a business man and good citi zen. Few men as young as he have accomplished as much arid accum mulated a fortune equal to his in i the same length of time. WOODRUFF HARDWARE CO., NO. 2. AT STATHAM GREAT SUCCESS. The Woodruff Hardware Cos., No. 2., of Staham, under the man agement of Pike Hutchins, is en joying a wonderful succes and is one of the live factors in the on ward growth and prosperity of that hustling little city of which Ba rrow county is proud.

MEMORIAL DAY WELL OBSERVED IN WINDER Winder paid impressive tribute to the heroes of the sixties, the ob servance ot the day being marked by the cessation of practically all business houses; interesting exer cises at the school auditorium and at the cemetery. Judge Russell was a well chosen orator ot the day. and in his own . impressive way paid loving trib ; ute to our revolutionary, confeder ate and world war veterans. April libth is the anniversary of the surrender of the confederate forces and the close of the war be tween the states, and also curious ly, of the first shot fired in the con flict with the United States and Germany. SNAP SHOTS The hapicst man in all the world is the one who all along life’s high way feels the strong and tender clasp of God’s unseen hand. Cheerfulness is the oil of glad ness that makes the wheels of life progress more silently and swiftly. When you can not better condi tions it. docs no good to worry ov er them; worry is the ennker that eats ont life’s brass. If you would he w ise think much, travel extensively and talk little. The man who tarries always in life’s collar has very little time to glimpse real glories from the top stories of life’sd welling. Example is stronger than pre cept, action is more mighty than profession and the tunning up of life is but the reaping of what we have sown. People said Tom Watson had been stuffed, stoned and stilled out side the city walls on April 22nd, they found him clothed, restored jand inside the gates ruling over I the synagogue. Mr. Palmer seems to have about as much influence over the sugar profiteers as he did over tin- over whelming majority of the votess of the grand old Empire state. If the time spent in complaint were actualized and utilized in forwarding worthwhile things, this mundane sphere would be in finitely better off. Paying ten dollars per rifle in aeroplanes does’nt sound much like economizing, and the ones who do it. are not building and manag ing our manufacturing plants and railroads. I | To set, you face to face in the right direction and then travel for ward in the fear of Cod means eventually to scale the heights of achievement. Success is to get up the moment we stumble, face in the right di rection and keep everlastingly go ing. If some girls who walk the streets were to put the paint they use on their faces on their moth er’s house and fence, the old town would look a whole lot brighter. The cause of prosperity is to too stubornly refuse to give to the whisperings of adversity; we are largely what we think we are. The only man in all the world who completely fails is the one who lies down and positively re fuses to get up. A man’s real character comes out in defeat. He who grows sout hs small, but he who shakes off 1 lu dust, of the neelee and smilingly moves on in natures true nobleman There is no more deluded man on earth than one who thinks that life consists in the multiplication of possessions, and that content ment aiid riches will bring genu ine happiness. Mr. Tom Jeff Lanier, one of Statham’s splendid citizens was a visitor to Winder Wednesday. Mr. J. L. Lanier and family, of Atlanta, spent the week-end in Winder, quests of Mrs. W. B. Mc- Cants.
