MRS. E. B. PHILYAW
A new made grave, in the Dil
lard Cemetery, marks the last
resting place of the remains of
Mrs E. B. Philyaw, and though
the little mound of earth is heap
ed with flowers, the token of tne
esteem in which the deceased
was held by her acquaintences,
yi-t, gt home is saddened in
which a husband and eight child
ren ars mourning tne earthly
loss'ofAvife and]mother.
Mrs. Philyaw had been a vic
tim of the dread'JJdisease, pella
gra, for several years, and r.o
doubt realized that at some time,
she would be called.upon to sur
render all that was dear to her,
in an earthly 'way. on accounl
of the disease, though until the
last remained cheerful as was
possiblejunder the circumstances
She leaves a husband and
eight children to mourn her go
ing. There are four boys and
four girls.
Mrs. Philyaw was Miss Dora
C. York, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. York, and was
a thember of the'Baptist church
since fourteen years of age. and
judging from the large congre
gation, at the church, that had
gathered to pay their last tribute
she must have been beloved by
the whole community.
The deceased was fifty one
years old at. her last birthday,
April 7th.
fife fife©** was condTuciedw
the DiUard Baptist Church and
in charge of the pastor, Rev. J.
W. Kesterson.
The bereft ones have the sym
pathy of the whole community
in this sad hour and the Tribune
joins the many friends with sym
pathy.

vide wagons with which to haul

people will collect it together, or
better put it in recepticals of

The slogan of “THE COW,
THE SOW AND THE HEN”, is
being practically demonstrated
by our Farm Agent, Mr. Walter
E. Neville, who gave us some
figures as to the outcome of his
poultry undertaking for thiF
year.
Mr. and. Mrs. Neville began
the firstfof*lJanuary with 114
Rhode Island Red hens and at
this time have 265 young chick
ens varying in ages from da\
olds to six weeks old.^They have
sold $78. 75 worth of day old
chicks; $130.00 worth of eggs
and $25.00 worth of hens, and
have 600 eggs incubating that
will hatch in a few days. ,
Mr. Neville has contracted his
fryers for summer delivery at
45c per pound. They will be
penned and fattened on a butter
milk ration for ten days before
placing on the market.
Beside the poultry interests
Mr. and Mrs. Neville arejnilking
a few fine Jersey cows which
largely contribute the ration for
the laying hens as well as to fat
ten the marketable fryers.
Like other men whqhave made
a studv of the-farm problems,
Mr. Neville is firm in his belief
that foe itjeal jpe
cow, the sow and the hen”, and
says that there is not only satis
faction in handling them but
that there is a real profit in the
industry if given the proper at
tention.
This method of farming is gen
erally known as Turner C ounty
plan of farming and has been
the means of keeping hundreds
of cotton farmers from hitting
the bottom [of their resources,
which they would have done if
they had continued to stick to
cotton.
This method- of farming is
well adapted to this section be
cause of.the natural advantages
that the country affords and if
practiced will put every farmer
on the road to prosperity.
Mr. Herman IGaines of the
State Highway Department was
in.Toccoa last week
Twelve members of the Bap
tist Church have purchased the-
Felder-Hamby property, on Main
Street fronting the Blue Ridge
Hotel, for a building site for tht
proposed Baptist Chore)'.
The property purchased con
tains approximately four aens
of land and is the most desirable
property in town for the location
of a church and also for business
house?.
These men have a deed for the
Felder interest and an option for
the Hamby interest and will soon
secure the deeds to the entire
tract.
It is reported that they intend
to donate to the church as much
of the land as is desired for the
church building and then. to dis
pose of the remainder for other
purposes. Probably a public sale
of the'remaining lots will be had
at some time in the near future.
The Baptists Qf Clayton occupy
a strategical position with refer
ence to the Baptists churches and
and Baptist of tnfe county and
for,that reason alon» it is neces
sary'that they waltQpp and build.
Not only do they occupy that po
sition with reference to the de-
ominatiomin tbfetfection but it
'WVffim&F'thattmiy build for
local reasons—that 4he the pres
ent building is inadequate for the
needs of the.local congregation.
With a membership of more
than three hundred it is neces
sary that they build in order to
accpmi date the local folks to say
nothing of the congregations
that they may have if only pre
pared to take care of those in
clined to worship with them.
Mr. M. M. Welch and daught
er, Mrs. Roberts and two grand
children, of j Florida, are stop
ping at the Earl House for
season. Mr. Welch is well known
to the Baptist of Georgia because
of his twenty five years connec
tion with the Mission Board, in
Atlanta, where he applied him
self diligently to the task until
his health broke down and he
was compelled to take a vacation.

Of the social activities of tl e
ommunity. the birthday party,
given to Mr. Robert Dickson, by
his friends, was the most enjoy
able affair of the last few days.
A unique invitation was sent
out by the friends to whicli about
fifty young men and ladies re
sponded.
After gathering at the Dickson
House they repaired to the foot
of Black Rock where they spread
t’ie lunch, feasted; themselves
and toasted the honoree.
The following poem constitut
ed the invitation and was com
posed by a friend.

Of ducking his beak, in "Needy Creek”

And from there we'd slowly roam,
'Round theTcntl, carpeted with moss,!
To seek-and find his “Paradise Lost.”
Bobby-being no longer a pup,
Bobby, he den’t have to "git up”
But we’d planed to start at eight
So'b not to be out too late.
And say-Pleasc don’t act cheap,
Stir yourself ami cook some "eats”
For we have read-and heard it said:

We,plan to bury "Pistol Pete”
And introduce to ail the woild,

So come along, and sing our song,

Church, Dr. H. C, Howard, teach
er of Homeoletics, at Mercer U-
niversity, preached the Commen

High School, which marked the
beginning of a series of exercis

school.
The speaker selected for hif
sibject ’’Quality, rather then
Quantity”, and read the story oi
Gideon and his army of three
hundred chosen from among the
thirty-two thousand.
It wak an excellent discourse
in which the speaker stressed the
necessity of quality in every walk
of life.
