Fear and Grandma Snow
Never Got Acquainted
Grandma Snow, writes a contribu
tor, was tall, well-formed, as straight
as an arrow and as brave as any man.
We affectionately called her our major
general. Like a real Spartan mother,
when in ’62 her youngest son came
home dejected because he had been
refused as a volunteer because he was
under age, she promptly tied on her
bonnet and marched back with him
to the recruiting office.
“Now, see here, sergeant,” she said,
“this boy’s heart is set on helping his
country as his brothers are doing. He
Is well and strong and willing, and his
father and I think he shows a proper
spirit, and we give our full consent to
his enlistment. What is more, we are
both going to offer our services. You
can put my name down now as a
nurse for anywhere they wish to send
me.”
In later years when she was near
ing her eightieth year she journeyed
to a distant town to v; it l.er son and
his family. She occupied a bedroom
off the parlor downstairs with another
member of the household. One night
in the small hours steps sounded on
the veranda —and the following con
versation took place at breakfast time:
| “Mother, I hear there were people
■on our veranda during the night.”
“Yes, John, there were two men, j
Grandma Snow replied placidly.
“What did you do?”
• “I opened the door, of course, and
asked them what they wanted.”
“Mother! It was a dreadful thing
for you to do I Suppose they had
rushed in 1”
“Well, suppose they had,” grandma
replied, quite unperturbed; “wouldn’t
I have rushed them out again?’

Building Committee
To Meet Saturday
Lumber Being Laid Down For Hart
Circuit Parsonage—Members of
Churches Ask To Help Now
I have been requested to call a
meeting of the Building committee
and Church committees to meet next
Saturday at 4 P. M., at Court House
in Hartwell. The object of the meet
ing is to find out just what the mem
bership of the churches are going
to put in the parsonage for the
Circuit and to transact some other
very important business.
The local committees are urged to
see the members this week and be
able to report both cash and pledges.
Let nothing but Providence keep us
from doing this important work and
attending the committee meeting
Saturday at hour appointed.

The Board of Stewards will meet

The annual North Georgia Confer
ence meets in Atlanta November
19th.
Saturday, September the 27th, is
the annual Work Day for the De
catur Orphans’ Home. This day has
been set aside for the support of the
little tots who are housed in this
home, deprived of parents and loved
ones to care for them. Everyone in
terested in orphan children should
give their earnings for this day to
the orphans. It is not asking much
of those who are so fortunate as to
be in good health and surrounded by
their loved ones with plenty of world
ly goods at their command.
The support of these 120 orphans
for the year is dependent upon the
contributions from this source. It
is a privilege to give to such a cause
and the blessings of the Almighty
will be showered upon those who
are not forgetful.
Emory University opened 'Wednes
day morning with an enrollment of
over 2,300. Messrs. Herbert Carl
ton and Henry Satterfield are two
Hartwell boys who enter Emory this
year.
Unless every member makes a
stiong and a most liberal as wqll as
willing effort the Hartwell Methodist
church this year will send to the
North Georgia Conference in Atlan
ta the first report in her history
“Not Paid In Full.” The matter is
a personal and an individual matter;
what are you willing to do? The
1924 budget for running the local
church is $4,635.00. How does your
payment so far look beside that
amount
We rejoice that the pastor is im
proving some and hope he will soon
be restored to his usual good health.
Services both morning and even
ing next Sunday, provided Bro. Bar
ton is able to preach. Let the mem
bership attend. Visitors cordially
invited.

STAR THEATRE
Thursday and Friday—“ Broken
Hearts of Broadway.”
How the skeins in a web of cir
cumstantial evidence may entangle
and enmesh an innocent person is
most vividly portrayed in “Broken
Hearts of Broadway,” the latest pho
todrama of New York’s “bohemian”
life, produced and directed by Irv
ing Cummings.
The unfolding of the plot in this
great silent drama of the primrose
path'reveals how “Mary Ellis,” a
country singer who has come to the
metropolis to woo fame and fortune,
becomes innocently involved in the
mystery murder of “Barry Peale,”
a Beau Brummel and born vivant
of Broadway. It also shows how
Fate may grip a person and almost
crush the heart ere it casts him or
her aside as debris along the toil
some road to riches.
Saturday—Tom Mix in “The Trou
ble Shooter.” Episode No. 6 “Way
of a Man.” Also Sunshine Comedy.
Monday—“ Those Who Dance.”
A picture that points out the pit
falls set by unscrupulous lawbreak
ers for pleasure mad youth of this
reckless age. Tense, strong drama,
dealing with the greatest problem
the nation faces today, presented
fearlessly, faccinatingly, as Ince can
always do it.
Tuesday and Wednesday—Lew
Cody and Marguerite Courtot in
“Jacqueline.”
Coming, October 30 —Gloria Swan
son in “Society Scandal.”
Coming soon —“Birth of a Na
tion.”
NOTICE —Matinee EVERY after
noon at 2:30 o’clock.
