You cannot judge a young man by
the umbrella he carries—it may l»e-
long to some other fellow.
Tifton gardeners are undecided
whether to plant tlieir gardens now
or a little later. It’s phunny.
There were crowds of people hi
the city last Saturday and Tifton
merchants enjoyed a splendid cash
trade.
Young man, you should imitate
the,postage stamp. It always sticks
to a thing, until it reaches its desti
nation.
Tifton is the most popular trading
centre in southwest Georgia. It is
because she has a lot of live, hustling
merchants.
The April showers this year are
too wintry to the unfortunate one
who happens to get caught in them
without an umbrella.
Tifton is not the biggest city in
Georgia, hut posesscs some of the
biggest hearted* citizens of any place

JAMES Z. ELLIOTT,
Georgia Baptist Convention.
It was tlie pleasure of tlie editor to
represent the Mell Baptist Associa
tion ii\ the State Convention held in
Macon last week.
The state lias no more distinguish
ed body of cliurcli people than the
Georgia Baptist Convention, The
personnel comprised delegates and
visitors from every section of tlie
state, as well as representatives of the
educational and missionary interests
of the denomination in tlie South.
The Macon session was a notable
one. Some of tlie greatest minds of
tlie denomination were present and
assisted in making it, as it was un
hesitatingly pronounced, one of the
most pie s n , instructive and smeoss-
ful ever held.
. The business of the convention, re
ferring mainly to education and mis
sions, was transacted in a quiet, or
derly and harmonious manner, and
hence it was tliat tlie great amount
of business claiming tlie attention of
(lie convention was disposed of in the
remarkably short timo of three days,
The reports revealed the fact that
the denomination is making rapid
progress in every section of the state
and that the contributions for the
support of tlie cause weie being in
creased each year. The showing
made by tlie reports was entirely sat
isfactory to all present.
Rev. F. T. Snell, of Tifton, was al
so present as a ropreicnalive of Mel
Association, and Mrs. B. T. Cole, also
of Tifton, represented the interest of
the Baptist Women’s Missionary
Union.
Tie women’s meeting was held in
the basement of the church where
there was ample room. The ladies
of tho Macon church excelled hi their
hospitality to their visitors, Airs.
Cole is especially pleased with - the
results of tlie mooting as well as the
manner in which tho visitors were
entertained.
Rev. F. T. Snell was assigned to
tho hospitablo home of Dr. W. C.
Gibson, a member of Vinevtlle Bap
tist church. There is no more pleas
ant homo in Georgia. Tho genial
Doctor and his estimable wife did
everything possible to make their
guests fuel entirely at homo. Dr,
Gibson is the general sturgeon fertile
Georgia Southern and Florida
railroad.
We were assigned to tho home of
Mr. Elliott Estes, the well-known
cotton commission merchant of Mr
con, and a cousin of Mrs. II. II. Tift,
of Tifton, His iH a model home, a
happy family of nine members. Be
sides himself and most amiable wife,
are two lovely and accomplished
daughters—their eldest nhitdrcn
and five sons who bid fair to develop
into mnnly men. Their hospitality
was unbounded and we wero made
to feel entirely at home. Wc had as
our companions Elder Shipman, pas
tor of tho Duffy street Baptist church,
of Savannah; Editor E. E. Folk, of
the Baptist and Reflector, Nashville,
Tenn., and formerly pastor of thu
Albany, Ga, Baptist church; and, a
Mr, Awtrey, of Acworth. Gov. and
.Mrs, Northern took tea at this home
Thursday evening* Me. Estes was
educated at Alt. /ion when Gov
Northern was the principal of that
celebrated school.
Altogether wo'Were greatly bene-
fitted and tileaucd * with our visit to
Macon on this occasion. Besides at
tending the convention we had the
pleasure of meeting socially, Dr, W
C. Gibson, Maj. W. I*; Glessner, R
Garnett Stone, John Bindshadlvr
and W. L. Eckle.

COME AND SEE MY
NEW .‘. STOCK!
-:0:-
I have just returned from Now York where I purchased the
largest and most complete stock of
Spring S Summer Goods
ever brought to this section of Georgia. Theso goods were
bought for cash, which means Mock bottom Prtoet, and
I proposo to sell them tlie same way.
MY PRICES
Will Paralyze Competition.
-:0:-
Farmers, merchants, professional men and everybody elso have
wisely concluded that the surest cure for bard times is to
Get Out of Debt
And stay out of debt, and to do this they uot only economise
in til* amount of goods they buy, but are more particular about
prices than over before In buying my now stock t had an eye
to this stala of alTairs in trade ami knew that I would have to
buy at unusually close figures in order to make a living profit
and ni tlie same time meet the demand of the trade for low pri
ces To do this I had to buy many lines of goods In large lots:
l;ut I accomplished my object. I feel no fear of contradiction
when I assert that I am now prepared to offer you
GREATER INDUCEMENTS IN PRICES
than have been offered by any merchant in south Georgia. My
new stock, just received, embraces an endless variety of
Dry Goods of all Kinds,
Stuple anil Fancy Notions, Shoes, lints, Clothing, Ktc., and if
you will favor mo with a call when you come to Sparks, 1
am sine you will be pleased with whnt 1 have to show
you and if uiy prices are not sufficient inducement
to sell the goods 1 don’t ask you to buy.
Come and convince yourselves.
