THE rENAI.TY.
Beneath an oak tree staunch and high
A fragle blossom came to dwell;
It smiled back to the summer sky
And seemed to love the world so well,
’Twas good and fhir, so whoahall blame
The sorrowing of an autumn day?
With smmner time it sweetly came;
With summer time it passed away.
And still the tree defiant stood
And felt the rain and faced the blast,
For nature taught him it was good
To stand unfaltering to the last.
To linger thus when all is bleak,
Where smiles have lived a summer’s length,
Is not commended to the weak;
It is the penalty ot strength.

REV, T. C. BETTERTON
LEAVES THE MINISTRY
Writes Senational Letter of Withdrawal to North
Georgia Conference Now in Session.
The feature ol the North Georgia

from Rev. Thomas C. Better-
who for three years was the able
of the First Methodist church
this city. From Griffin Mr. Bet¬
went to Dalton, where he was
of the First Methodist church
one year.
Mr. Betterton’s letter is lengthy
is pecullariiy characteristic of
man, who for sometime has been
of harmony with the conference
which he had been a piember for
yeans.
That he is a man oi ability cannot
be disputed and the fact that he
could not longer remain in the con¬
ference id deeply deplored by his
many friends.
Mr. Betterton assigns several reas-

A Week of Religious Activity.
This week is one of great activity
among the religious denominations
oi the State.
The North Georgia conference of
the Southern Methodist church is in
session at Milledgeville and that good
old town has thrown its hospitable
homes wide open to the Methodist
hosts. Bishop Seth Ward, of Texas,
is presiding, assisted by his cabinet
of eleven presiding elders.
The Georgia Baptist convention, of
which ex-Governor W. J. Northen is
president, is being entertained at
Cartersville. About 700 delegates
are in attendance. The State con¬
vention of the Christian denomina¬
tion is in session at Valdosta. The
attendance is large and interest in
church work is manifest.

ons for his withdrawal, the most
prominent of which is directly con¬
nected with Bishop Warren A.
Candler, whom he says is a dictator
not a leader.
It has been known for several days
that Mr. Betterton was contemplating
severing his connection with the
Methodist Conference, but his definite
decision was uot made public until
yesterday.
Mr. Betterton advocates “advanced
thought,” which is regarded by letter, some
heresy, aDd according to his
Bishop Candler had “heresy hounds
on the trail of all ministers who did
not belong to the Candler division of
thinking.”
Nothing is known at this time of
Mr. Betterton’s intentions for the
iufure, but he is eminently qualified
for many pursuits of life. • *
ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS.
Each Purt at the Larser Ones la
Made by Specialist*.
Artificial flowers were invented by
pious nuns. In the Italian "convents
the altars and shrines -were up to the
cud of the eighteenth century decorat¬
ed with artificial flowers, laboriously
put together, of paper, parchment and
other still materials. In a Venetian
warehouse the. most wonderful pro¬
ductions of natural flowers are ex¬
hibited in glass cases, and In' many
cases, not only the richest and most
brilliant colors, but the very scent of
the flowers has been stolen from na¬
ture, for some of the artificial flowers
are steeped in the perfume distilled
from the flower which it represents.
Last century a Swiss invented a ma¬
chine for cutting out the leaves and
petals, but it can only be used for the
smaller kinds, sucli as are wanted for
hyacinths, lilies of the. valley and oth¬
er small flowers. In larger petals the
irregularfffe#of t/ manual work are pre¬
ferred fife stiff and correct forms
producecrffly machinery. This material
of which the petals are made is woven
In special factories. The scissors and
other toifis used by the girls employ¬
ed as well as the presses In which the
reins are traced on the leaves are of a
shape specially' adapted to the work.
Each part of a flower Is made by spe¬
cialists. In one room, for Instance,
only stalks of flowers and leaves are
made: in another, fruits and berries of
all kinds are cast if they are wax or
blown if made of glass. The clever¬
est workers are employed in making
blossoms of the single petals and bou¬
quets, wreaths and garlands of the sin¬
gle blossoms.—Dundee Advertiser.
15-Year-Old Girl Drowned,
New York, Nov. 21.—Ina William*,
15 years old, was drowned Tuesday
nigh; in an effort to escape from the
Randals island reformatory. A com¬
panion, Rose Traub, of the same age,
who had participated In the William’s
girl’s plan to escape, succeeded in
swimming across the stream and land¬
ing in the Bronx, eluded the author¬
ities. The body of the drowned girl
was recovered.
Bishop Tigert Dead.
Tulsa, r. T., Nov. 21.—Bishop J.
O. Tigert, of Louisville, Ky., died
here at 8:45 o’clock Wednesday
morning. after an illness of ten days;
aged 45 years.
Life insurance was invented by Pas¬
