Air Line Thrift Club was organ
ized June Ist, 1922, by Hart county
Home Demonstration Agent, Miss
Frances McLanahan. Miss Willie
Kay, president; Mrs. Thompson Wil
liams, secretary. Two young ladies
were appointed to boost the club.
The side gaining the largest number
in membership was entertained by
the losing side. Miss Troyce Gurley,
the Red side, and Miss Dducilla Mar
tin, the Blue side. At the close of
3 months the Blue side entertained
the Reds with delicious refresh
ments.
The question box was the hrst on
program and it proved quite helpful
as well as entertaining. Next came
the demonstration in organdy flow
ers, next silk flowers, then came the
paper flowers. We held two meet
ings in which we made flowers that
were used in decoration on November
11, 1922, Armistice Day.
Next demonstration was basketry.
In January, 1923, it was necessary

BAPTIST CHURCH
1 Three hundred and three in Sun
day school last Sunday.
Rev. O. L. Jones, Superintendent
of the Anti-Saloon League in Louis*
i iana, preached two interesting ser
mons morning and evening. Bro.
■ Jones was a citizen of Hartwell some
i seventeen years ago and was em
ployed as the Hebron Associational
■ evangelist making many friends who
were made glad by the opportunity
, of hearing him again. He now has
headquartres in New Orleans. There
would have been no conflict with the
interesting protracted services at the
Methodist church had it been antici
pated before Bro. Jones promised to
visit in this section when he was in
vited to preach for us.
All members of the Baptist church
• who have attended the Methodist
i meeting during the protracted ser-
• vices of the past ten days have given
. much praise and expression of ap
preciation for the strong, practical
and timely sermons delivered by the
pastor. They feel that if the faith-
■ ful and urgent exhortations do not
; help in stopping some of the popular
sins in Hartwell that it indicates a
I deplorable condition. -The prayer of
I Christian people is that great good
will be the result of the meeting.
The common shrew is smaller than
the house mouse, and is one of the
fiercest and most indomitable of
creatures. The lion is a cowardly
skulking brute beside this wee atom
of fur and vitality that is called
the common shrew.
: was away teaching school. Mrs. Don
I Moorhead was elected.
As our club had grown so large
it was up to us to see if we could
raise sufficient amount of money to
build a club room. First method
for fund raising was two short plays,
fifteen members taking part. sl7
was the amount we received from
the plays. Then next was to work
for community prize at Hart County
Fair. Our ladies won the $25.00,
so this was added to our treasury.
In January, 1924, elected officers
for the year. Mrs. Don Moorhead,
president; Mrs. Asa Pruitt, vice
president; Mrs. Thomspon Williams,
secretary & treasurer.
Program committee—Mrs. Bob
Robertson, Mrs. Paris Bray, Mrs.
Artis Ertzberger.
Child Welfare —Mrs. A. D. Brown.
Mrs. C. L. Ferguson, Mrs. Will
Gaines, Miss Willie Kay.
I Home Improvement—Mrs. H. W.
I Scott, Mrs. J. T. Williams, Mrs. G.
T. Wimer.

, head. Mrs. Bob Robertson, Miss Mi-
■ na Crump.

Finance —Mrs. Asa Pruitt, Mrs.
Don Moorhead, Mrs. G. T. Wimer,
i Mrs. R. P. Robertson. Mrs. A. D.

At this meeting we decided to
j have a box supper last of February,
the proceeds were $54.46, and then
I next on program we sold sandwiches,
i cake, hot coffee and hot chocolate.
; SB.OO were received.
A few days ago we decided to
i sell flavoring for the club room.
During the past 2 years we have
tried to hold regular monthly meet
ings, sometimes we would have them
called off for sickness, or some other
good reason, but we would try to
have call meetings to make the loss
up. Os course sometimes we would
have only a small number but we
would not get discouraged. Our club
has had so many good things in de
monstration work that we will not
try to name them all.
The main reason we have been so
faithful is due to our faithful leader,
I Miss McLanahan.

METHODIST REVIVAL WILL
BEGIN IN ROYSTON SUNDAY
The revival meeting which is to
begin at the Royston Methodist
church next Sunday morning prom
ises to be one of the interesting
meetings to be held in this section
this season. Preparations for the
services have been under way for
the past several days. It is expect
ed that the series of services will
continue for at least ten days.
Dr. Thos. M. Elliott, pastor of the
church, will do the preaching, and
Claude C. Chambers, of Waynes
boro, Virginia,, will direct the sing
ing- , ,
The personnel of the leaders of the
coming revival adds greatly to the
interest, since both of them are
former Elbert county men, born and
reared at Bowman.
Dr. Elliott is a member of the
North Georgia Conference, having
joined that body from an Atlanta
church, to which place his father re
moved from Bowman. Mr. Cham
bers is a business man of Virginia,
but devotes much of his time to Gos
pel singing. Both of these men are
widely known throughout this sec
tion of the state, and no doubt will
have many of their old-time ac
quaintances attend the revival.

Good rains have fallen in this sec
tion for the last few days and crops

has been threshed, the wheat crop
was better than for years, But the
threshermen report but few oats
threshed.

Thornton.
Rev. J. A. Harper, of Nuberg,

It was the pleasure of the writer

DAIRIES AND DAYLIGHT
Dairymen who deliver their pro
ducts either to customers in the city
I or to the loading platforms of rail
i road or interurban lines find it nec
' essary to do a great deal of work
before daylight, and thus they need
i lots of artificial light.
Electricity is rapidly coming to
I be recognized as the safest and most
convenient means of dairy lighting.
It is claimed that wherever electric
j light is used on the farm during
working hours it saves time, and in
no kind of farm work is this more
' true than in the work performed in
I ’.he dairy barn. Electric lights can
' be placed where they are most need
; ed.
The independent electric plants,
which are now so widely used on
; farms all over the country, supply
j enough light not only for the dairy
I barns, but for the house and all other
buildings as well. In addition to
■ light they furnish plenty of current
for electric power. And in the
I house the washing machine, pumping
| system, vacuum sweeper and a hun
dred other household appliances
make the farm wife's work much
lighter.
Hebron Baptist Workers Plan
For Big Meeting In Bowman
Below is the program of the sum
mer encampment of the Hebron As
sociation and the meeting of three
conventions July 21 to 25, 1924, at
Gibson-Mercer, Bowman, Ga.:
The Association has asked that at
least two representatives from each
church attend the Summer Encamp
ment, and stay in the dormitory at
Gibson-Mercer from Monday through
Friday. Prof. Rev. J. B. Brook
shire, the newly elected president of
the institution, is in charge of the
entertainment committee.
The class work will oegin at three
o’clock Monday, July 21, and it is
expected that we will open the
classes with full attendance.
The following will be the faculty
for the varied courses. W. M. U.
Manual, Mrs. Suddeth. B. Y. P. U.
Manual by C. P. Hayes. Sunday
School Manual, Miss Ruth Green.
Layman’s work in Stewardship, Rev.
J. Fred Eden. The specials in each
o fthe courses will be: Miss J. R.
Allen, of Atlanta; Rev. C. W. Hen
derson, Royston; Prof. Brokshire,
Bowman, and Mr. M. M. Norman,
Hartwell.
The annual session of the Sunday
School convention will be held from
10 o’clock Tuesday and Wednesday.
Col. A. S. Skelton, president. The
program will be found in this issue
of The Sun.
The annual Y. W. A. Council, Mrs.
M. V. Duncan, leader, will be held
Thursday, beginning at 10 o’clock.
The program follows:
The B. Y. P. U. convention will
convene Friday at ten o’clock. Mr.
C. C. Parks, president. He has ar
ranged a splendid program which fol
lows :
The Encampment Singing will be
under the leadership of Rev. Thos.
J. Rucker, of Bowman, and Bro.
Rucker has some special numbers he
is arranging for the occasion. To
gether with solos, instrumental mu
sic and the very best singing.
At the night sessions we have
some able speakers who will address
the encampment. Monday night Dr.
Acquilla Chamblee, of Forsyth,
president of Bessie Tift College,
will be the speaker. Tuesday night
Dr. W. A. Wray, of Elberton, will
address us on some thrilling theme.
Wednesday night, either Col. A. S.
Skelton or his substitute will address
us on some phase of the Sunday
school work. Thursday night, Edi
tor L. D. Newton, of the Christian
Index, Atlanta, will address th> en
campment. Friday night, Mr. C. W.
Binns, of Atlanta, who is president
of the Georgia State B. Y. P. U.
convention, will speak to us.
With such a program, it would be
hard to find so many good things
anywhere, and this is indeed the
greatest step this association has
taken in its history to provide a
real school, and an encampment that
feeds the entire man, body, mind and
soul.
The Hebron Association considers
themselves fortunate indeed to se
cure the services of Rev. J. B. Brook
shire, of Winder, as the president of
Gibson -.Mercer Academy. Bro.
Brookshire has been superintendent
of the Barrow county schools for
several years. He was before be
coming county superintendent, pres
ident of Perry-Rainey Baptist school
at Auburn, Ga. He is an able
preacher and will be of great service
in the Associational work as well as
the efficient president of Gibson-
Mercer.
