No Musical Instruments
Allowed In Bogfs
Methodist Church
(By Howard Huff, in Athens
Banner-Herald)
“I give and bequeath to the trus
tees of Boggs Methodist church near
Athens, for the use of said church,
twenty (20) shares of the capital
stock of the Georgia Railroad and
Banking Company.”
"The bequest is for the use of
said church and is made upon the
distinct condition that no organ or
instrumental music of any kind shall
ever he introduced or used in said
church. And if said church shall
violate this condition, then the stock
herein bequeathed to said church
shall revert to mjt estate and dis
posed of under the twelfth item of
this will.”
So read the will of Ferdinand Phi
nizy and so no musical instrument
has ever been introduced in the
church.
Several other churches were also
endowered under like circumstances
in the will but as far as can be learn
ed, this is the only one to have com
plied with the requirements listed.
On a little knoll surrounded by
Georgia pines and oaks, stands the
one room structure. It is a small
white building with green blinds and
has a friendly as well as a reverent
atmosphere.
In the rear is a well planned lit
tle cemetery with moss covered
stones and trees that give the little
plot a sense of peace and serenity.
Every Sunday the bell that hangs
in the small tower in the front of
the church tolls out, calling its mem
bers, forty in number, to the ser
vices. The membership is now made
up mostly of children, the majority
of the old members having moved
away or passed on.
Sunday school is held in the little
one room chapel and though no
musical instrument is allowed, the
sound of little voices can be heard
mingling with the old as the songs
ring out over the peaceful country
side.
The presiding minister, Max Whit
timore, is a student at the University
of Georgia. He is a student at the
Henry Grady School of Journalism
but is present every Sunday to
preach to the small, yet attentive
group assembled to hear the sermon.
The church is located about four
miles from Athens on the Jefferson
road. It was dedicated in 1875 by
Bishop Pierce.
A number of distinguished divines
have served the church, among whom
were Bishop Warren Candler, Dr. J.
B. Robins, and the Rev. J. B. M.
Morris. There have also been three
Emory University of Georgia stu
dents to serve the congregation.
Boggs church was built about the
year of 1875 on land given by Rich
ard Boggs for whom the church is
named. It was built and endorsed
by Ferdinand Phinizy and has since
been kept up through the endorse
ment and the contributions of its
members. Every year Mr. Phinizy’s
son, Charles, sends a contribution,
keeping up his father’s fine work.
ERNEST MICHAEL
Athens, Ga. Ernest Michael,
prominent Athens businessman, died
at his residence here Wednesday,
after several months' illness. Rites
were held at the residence at 3 p.
m. Thursday, Rabbi Lawrence Block
officiating. Burial was in Oconee
Hill cemetery. Mr. Michael was a
son of the late Simon Michael, one
of the founders of Michael Broth
ers’ department store here, estab
lished in 1884. He is survived by
his wife, Mrs. Florette Michael; one
daughter, Mrs. Sol Snyder, of Ba
strop, La.; a son, Emile Michael, of
Athens; two brothers, Max Michael,
of Athens, and Morris Michael, of
Macon; and his mother, Mrs. Simon
Michael.
MISUNDERSTANDING
Another story that might help to
end all absent-minded professor
stories concerns the absent-minded
professor who walked into the bar
ber shop. He sat himself next to a
pretty red-head, who was having her
hair bobbed-at the moment.
“Haircut, please,’’ ordered the
professor.
“Certainly,” said the barber.
“But, if you really want a haircut,
would you mind taking your hat oil
first?”
The absent-minded professor hur
riedly removed his hat.
“Oh, I’m terribly sorry/’ he apo
logized, as he looked around. “I
didn’t know there was a lady pres
ent!” . . .

THE REASON BAYER
ASPIRIN WORKS SO FAST
Drop a Bayer Aspirin tablet into a
tumbler of water.
By the time it hits the bottom of the
glass it is disintegrating.
This speed of disintegration enables
genuine BAYER Aspirin tablets to start
“taking hold'' of headache and simi
lar pain a few minutes after taking.
All people who suffer occasionally
from headaches ought to know
this way to quick relief.
At the first sign of such pain,
take two Bayer Aspirin tablets
with a half glass of water. Some
times if the pain is more severe,
another dose is necessary later,
according to directions.
If headaches keep Coming back
we advise you to see your own
physician. He will look for the
cause in order to correct it.
The price now is only for
twelve tablets or two full dozen
for 25 cents virtually, only a

ALL U. S. COTTON RECORDS
BROKEN
All previous records for cotton
production were shattered Wednes
day with the United States Crop Re
porting Board placing output as of
December 1 at 18,746,000 bales.
The previous record, established
last month, was 18,243,000 bales.
New high for yield and ginnings
were also recorded, the board plac
ing yield per acre at 2G4.6 pounds
and the Census Bureau reporting
16,178,000 bales ginned prior to De
cember 1.
The report was greatly in excess
of expectations. Private estimates
had indicated production of 18,400,-
000 to 18,000,000 bales.

THINGS ONE SHOULD KNOW
To make perfect muffins combine
all dry ingredients, then add liquids
quickly, stirring but not beating.
Do not stir after ingredients are
moistened. Fill muffin pans two
thirds full, and if mixture looks
lumpy it will smooth out during bak
ing.
If too much baking powder is used
in a cake it is likely to be coarse
grained.
Strong coffee used instead of milk
in rice pudding makes delicious cof
fee rice pudding.
It is not economy to buy a single
pair of silk stockings at a time.
When one stocking goes, the other is
a loss. If you buy two or three
pairs of the same color at the same
time you will always be able to
match up the odd stocking.
Add a cup of grated cheese to the
white sauce you serve creamed
cauliflower in. It gives it a delicious
flavor.
Celery should be cooked slowly.
It is a fibrous vegetable, and tough
ens if cooked quickly.
