Grove Hill Poultry Farm Plant Burn*
Fire destroyed the poultry plant j
of the Grove Hill Poultry J’arm last
Friday night. The plant was located,
on the Commerce and Jefferson road, j
two miles west of town. The fire i
was discovered about 9 o’clock, and
had already developed to a degree
beyond control when discovered. The;
building and contents were totally
destroyed. Incubators, with an egg
capacity of four thousand eggs, con- 1
stituted the principal loss. There J
were three large incubators and three
small ones. There were several hun-'
dreds eggs in the plant. Lamps of
the incubators had been burning
several days, getting the incubators
ready to receive the eggs, and the
supposition is that the fire originated
from one of the lamps. The loss is
estimated at four thousand dollars,
partially covered by insurance. The
plant was the property of Prof. C.
L. Veatch and Fred Williamson.

Georgia doesn’t suffer from over- j
production. Its trouble is inadequate i
distribution. The world will con
sume all the foodstuff Georgia will j
raise, provided they can get it. The
automobile truck is helping to solve
this problem and adequate freight
rates would do its share in the same
direction.

(From Banks County Journal)
People in general are dissatisfied
with the present game laws. A boy
can not hunt even in his own militia
district without paying some other
men to do it. A widow woman with
two or three little boys must pay
several dollars before her boys" can
go out and shoot or trap a rabbit.
Often neither the woman nor the
boys have the money. It’s rotton,
and the people resent it. We have
more fool laws than any country in
[the world and they are violated here
more than in any other country.

Baptist Convention To Meet
In Valdosta
| The one hundred and fifth annual
session of the Georgia Baptist Con
vention will meet next week in Val
dosta, beginning Tuesday night, and
! continuing through Thursday.
Dr. John D. Moll of Athens has
been president of the convention for
jthe past fifteen years, and Dr. B. D.
i Ragsdale has been secretary for
! more than thirty years. Dr. E. J.
Forrester is treasurer, and Dr. W. T.
j Granade assistant secretary.
Dr. G. J. Davis, pastor of the First
'■ Baptist church, Marietta, will delivet
| the annual convention sermon this
year. The sermon will be the principal
event in the opening session Tues

One of the principal reports to be
heard at the convention will be one j
on state missions. This report will
be read by Rev. F. C. McConnell,
Jr., pastor of the First Baptist church,
of Tifton. The report will reveal a
year of marked achievements in some
departments of the state mission pro
gram.
The W. M. U. work of the state
also will make a fine report. The
W. M. U. convention, recently held
at Gainesville, reported a total of 2,-
039 missiohary organizations in the
state, of which 1,096 are young peo
ple’s organizations.
The B. Y. P. U. work, another de
partment of the state mission report,
will make a fine showing. Edwin S.
Preston is the secretary of this de
partment. Rev. W. P. Binns, of La-
Grange, is president of the B. Y. P.
U. convention. The report will show
a total of 1,670 unions in the state.
During the year these unions have
granted 9,456 awards for work in
study courses.
The report on education will be
another point of interest in the con
vention. This report will be read
by Dr. W. M. Harris-, pastor of the
First Baptist church, of Thomasville.
While no exact data is yet in hand
regarding the various institutions in
the Georgia Baptist education pro
gram, it is generally understood that
the 1626 report will be a favorable
lone. The institutions included in the
]report will be Mercer university,
Macon; Bessie Tift college, Forsyth;
Norman institute, Norman Park; Lo
cust Grove institute, Locust Grove;
Brewton-Parker Institute, Mt. Vern
on, with general information concern
ing Shorter college, Rome, and Pied

NOTES
Our basket ball practice is pro
gressing very nicely at this time.
- There is still a large number coming
out, and we hope that all of these
will continue for a largo number not
only encouragci the coach, but it
also helps the regulars in the scrim
mages for making various substitu
tions in the scrub team, gives the
Varsity the advantage of learning the
different ways of different people
whom they will meet in liietr various
opponents.
We regret the loss of one of our
Varsity men, Fred Culberson. We
hope that he will decide to come
back with us before long, for we feel
that the team would not be itself
without him.
We have been noticing a few visi
tors coming out in the afternoon to
see the practice. We hope that
these will continue doing this, and
we want to invite and welcome every
one who would like to come out and
watch the scrimmnges in the after
noons. Come out and see for your- '
self how things are going on.
Our team will play the opening
game of the season next Friday night,
December 3, in either Maysville or
Dacula. It has not been definitely
decided yet as to which of these two
teams will play. We would be glad
to have as many as can come out with
us and encourage the team.
