Change of Superintendents.
After nearly a quarter of a century of
service to the church as superintendent
of tbe Methodist Sunday School, Col J M
Mobley presided Sunday afternoon for
the last time. He retired in favor of Mr
O S Barnes, who was elected by the last
quarterly conference as his successor.
At the close of the usual school exercises
he briefly stated the reasons for the
change and made a short farewell address
to tbe school. He said that his service
was ended, the record was made and
whatever there may have been of error
iu the discharge of his duties l e had done
the best he could.
When he took his seat Mr B C Kim¬
brough read a preamble and resolutions
eulogizing bis merit as a superintendent,
his prompt attendance through sunshine
and rain, bis devotion to the duties of his
office and the sincere regret of the school
at the retirement from the position he
had so long and faithfully filled.
Mr O S Barnes, Judge W I Hudson and
Prof J W Dozier added their tribute to
bis worth as a superintendent in brief
but eloquent terms. Mr R A Ru»sell
then stepped in front of the altar holding
in his hand a gold-headed cane. In well
chosen language he alluded to the time,
twenty-two years ago when Col Mobley
gathered a few children of the town in a
class and taught them in the old school
house on the hill. That was the origin
of the sohool which had continued almost
uninterruptedly up to the present time.
At the close of his remarks be presented
the cane in behalf of many friends who
chose this manner to express their esteem
and confidence in the retiring superin¬
tendent.
Handkerchiefs were need freely dnring
the time consumed in these testimonials
of respect and esteem. The resolutions
were unanimously adopted by a rising
vote, after which the sohool filed out of
the church.
Mr O S Barnes, the new superintends
ent, is a young men and craves the co*
operation of parents and teachers that he
may discharge the duties of his office in a
manner that will be for tbe best interest
of tbe Sunday school.

Valdosta, Ga,, Oet. 20 , 1886.—My
boy is now eighteen years old, and bus
been sick all his life, and not able to do
any work of any kind. I thfeught he hart
dropsy, He has bis blood had was almost appetite like water. color,
never any or
and was unfit for anything, being in such
an awful condition. I have daring the
last ten years expected him to die ut any
moment, he could not walk 100 yards
without resting two or three times. In
three or four days after giving him
Briggs’ Nunnbetter Tonic Pills he did a
whole days work in the field, being so
much improved. He now has a good ap -
petite and is rapidly improving in stregth
and color. 1 know the Pills have given
him a new lease of life, and I recommend
them above every medicine on earth. My
wife ha* also been in feeble condition for
some time, and they have improved her
also very much. If anybody needs a ton¬
