A FREAK EGG
H. M. Lawrence, Air Line citizen,
was in the office a few days ago ex
hibiting an egg one of his hens laid,
The egg, which was very small, had a
twist to it, resembling a baby ele

Great is old Hart.
NORTHERN SLANG
Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 7—The Nor
thern people laugh at the Southern
people for saying “Down Yonder’
and “you all” as well as many other
expressions commonly used in the dear
old South. The average Northerner
think that the southern people say
“you all” when they speak to only one
person. Os course he has been misin
formed and poor fellow is having fun
at his own expense.
It will be interesting to note some
of the expressions and words used by
these northern brothers in their every
day conversation. You will readily
see that they have not been schooled
to perfection. A common expression
here is “Did you eat, yet?” Some of
them cut it short and say, “Djeat
Jet?” “No’d jew?” Another one is
“Leave me take your knife a min
ute.” or instead of saying “Let it go
at that,” they say “Leave it go at
that.”
SAUL SAYS ADVERTISING ,

ment Store, savs it pays to advertise

Fair Success
The Hart County Fair November 1-
2 was a success, and words are al
most useless in trying to describe
every department of the event that
brought our people together for these
two days of enjoyment and profit.
From the president of the Fair As
sociation to the most humble partici
pant, fcere was harmony, and the en
tire eilent “went off” in the usual Hart
County style of doing things up
“brown” as we sometimes say.
To try to place credit for the suc
cess off the Fair on any one person
wcuhlfbe unwise: suffice it t* say that
our people knov who deserve crelit,
and tqey are receiving it.
In the community exhibits Reed
Creek : won first place with Air Line
second. Owing to delay in checking
up the various reports by the Judges
a complete list of winners was not ob
tainable for this issue of The Sun.
Exhibits in every department were
splendid .
The" Fair Association was indebted
to the Georgia Railway & Power Co’s,
large band for furnishing music for
the event. This was an enjoyable fea
ture.
The various community entertain
ments were largely attended, and this
was a new .departure that brought
forth favorable comment. Hart can
entertain herself, alright, when it
comes to shows.
The auto exhibit, football game, and
other added features were numerous,
and fine. The fireworks both nights
drew large crowds, also.
Truly, it was a great Fair, and
withal entertaining and profitable to
all who attended.
Next Sunday Mr. L. D. Newton,
Editor of the Christian Index wil be
with us and will speak at eleven
c’clock in our church and will speak at
Cross Reads at 3 P. M. and is to speak
at Sardis at 6 P. M., and at Bio at 7:30
P. M.
Mr. Newton has just returned from
his trip through Europe and you can
not afford to miss hearing him at least
once next Sunday. This will be a
rare opportunity to hear a great ad
dress. People are invited and urged to
come regardless of creeds.
Mr. W. D. Powell, the old War
Horse of Kentucky, will speak in our
church 7 P. M.. November 14th. Re
member this will be Wednesday week
at 7:30 P. M. Dr. Powell will enter
tain and instruct. He is a real show.
People who used to know him in Ken
tucky went for mlies to hear him.

MRS. C. A. DEAN DIES AT
93 YEARS AGE IN HOME
OF LAVONIA DAUGHTER
Mrs. C. A. Dean, age 93, died at her
home in Lavonia on Tuesday morn
ing, October 30, 1923. at five o’clock.
She was ill only a few hours.
The passing of this woman ends tho
career of one of Franklin county’s
oldest and best known citizens.
Tie Lav .nia Times carried a most
interesting item about Mrs. Dean, part
of which we give below:
Mrs. Dean was born in Ohio on Oc
tober 31st, 1830. Her maiden name
was Carolina Arelia Adams. She be
came an orphan when she was three
yeais of age. She lived with a broth
er in Indiana till she was 15 years of
age. At that age she went to Texas
and lived with another brother, Har
vey Adams. She was married three
times during her life. Her first mar
riage was to Mr. Cyrus Burruss, of
Scuth Carolina. After her marriage
she lived in South Carolina at what is
now known as Roberts Station. One
child was bom to this union, Miss,
Eugenia Burruss, who is now’ Mrs-
Eugenia Mason, cf Lavonia.
Her husband died when her daugh
ter was about four months old. Eight
years later Mrs. Dean was married
to Mr. Irish Stephenson, also f South
Carolina. To this union one daugh
ter was born, Lula, who was known to
us as Mrs. Lula Patton and who died
some years ago. Mr. Stephenson went
to war and was killed when his daugh
ter was about one year old.
The last marriage of Mrs. Dean was
to Obadiah Dean who died nearly for
ty years ago. Thev lived together for
many years at what is now known
as the Dean place near Canon, Ga.
No children were born to thp last
union. Mr. Dean had been married
three times also and it is very re
markable that at one time Mrs. Dean
was living with and caring for flvo
sets of dhildren. They got along very
harmoniously and were as peaceful as
if all had been full brothers and sis
ters. Among the step-children that
Mrs. Dean raised are Jeff Dean, of
Smithville .Ga., Col. W. O. Dean, of
Monroe Ga., and Mrs. Jeff Holland
of Canon.
Mrs. Dean came to Lavonia tea live
w -h her daughter, Mrs. Mason, about
twentv years and had made Lavonia
her home ever since. She was known
to Lavonia people and her life here
had been a benediction to all with
whom she came in contact. She had
been a faithful member of the Baptist
church for about seventy years. She
was ready to go or stay just as
God wished. Mrs. Dean was like a
ray of sunshine in the home even to
her last day. Stye spread god cheer
and never failed to greet everyone
with a smile.
Her remains were peacefully and
quietly laid away at Lavonia on Wed
nesday morning at 10 o’clock just
ninety-three years to a day after her
birth. The funeral services were sim
ple ahd impressive of the life of noble
simplicity which she had lived. Bro.
Geo. Steed conducted the funeral ser
vices.
