VOLUME 45
ARMISTICE DAY.
Me. Editor: —The Armistice
Day, a day that brings joy not
only to every mother, but to every
tiue hearted American citizen, is
near at hand. This affords a most
splendid opportunity to every
community in our county to do
an act and service that should be
rendered to history—namely the
taking down of the service tlag
that hangs in the school, church
or other organizations and placing
with proper ceremony this sacred
remembrance in some place for
safe keeping.
Should any reader be interested
in a program for such a ceremony,
I would be glad for them to com¬
municate with me. The school
Woman’s club n. d community
here in Chipiey are at work on a
program that I believe will be of
interest to them in event such a
plan Is decided on by their local
county communities. Possibly
you have some suggestion to offer.
Nothing is better than mutua
suggestions and co-operation
Yours, Irvine S. Ingram.
MOVING PICTURES

ern machine and equipment has
been purchased and it will soon b
installed in the School Auditori
11 m. The proceeds from thes
performances will be used by th
local Board of Education for th
school. By this means muc
needed equipment will be adde
to the School.
Not only will it be uectl for the’
above purpose, but for education¬
al instruction in geography, histo¬
ry, science and other educational
features.

W. M U. NOTES.
EXECUTIVE BOARD
MEETING W. M. U.
Miss Ida Ilhoad, of Atlanta, is
now employed by the Board to
visit the associations and organ¬
ize soeietier- She is doiDg a splen¬
did work, which means much for
the future success of missions and
other Kingdom work in Georgia.
Miss Maud Powell, the new
leader of the young peoples’e work
has brought to this deparment
much enthusiasm and the out¬
look for her work is bright. The
Baptist young people should give
her their hearty support, so that
this important work, which has
been without a leader for so long,
may take on new life and grow to
perfection.
The Mary P Willingham Indus¬
trial school for girls opened with
165 girls and Dr. (Jutts is greatly
embarassed for lack of room. The
new domestic science building
fills a long felt want, but the effi¬
cient teacher of this very import
tant department insinuates that a
China and Silver shower by some
generous missionary society would
be most appropriate and entirely
necessary to a well served meal.
Mrs Taul White, State Supt. of
Mission Study, reports increasing
interest and 175 certificates won
by those who have studied the
Manual. She hopes next year to
see Georgia lead all the Sates in
Mission study.—Contributed by

IN ME MORIAM.
B. E. GRANT
One year ago a happy home was sad
dened by the (leatn of a loving hus¬
band and devoted father, when God
took unto himself Edgar Grant, Oct.
19, 1918. His illness, influenza, de¬
| veloped pneumonia and at his death
his wise and three children were very
ill ofthesame disease. Edgar iiad a
genial disposition with al ways a picas
ant word. He united wit h the Shiloh
Baptist church four yearg ago and was
baptized by Rev T T Davis. A few mo
merits before lieSt passed out on the
sea of Eternity he sang his favorite
hymn, “NearA my God, to Thee ” He
dearly loved his church and Sunday
school. It was the writer’s happy lot
to live near him all his life, visiting in
his home many, many times and I nev¬
er knew a sweeter character; he was
so kind and considerate to his com¬
panion, so self-sacrificing for his child
ren, who often speak of going to meet
their darling papa in heaven. Oh, we
do miss him so much as cousin, neigh¬
bor an d iriend, but we must submit to
-God’s will. He is survived by wife
and children, a father, three brothers
and five sisters, his mother having pre
ceded him to the Great Beyond two
years ago. Being the baby child of a
large family, he was inexpressibly
dear to them. “Mourn not, loved
ones, as those who have no hope.
Edgar was a loyal Mason, being W.
M. of Shiloh Lodge No. 020 at the
time of his death. I commend all to
the loving Savior, whe said, ’“My
grace is sufficient for thee.’ 1
