can’t see anything but a short crop of
both cotton and corn this year. There
is the poorest prospect., at least around
here, at this time of the year that I ever
saw.
Mr. C R. Willis and Miss Lillian
Harris, of Molena, were happily mar
“G ried at the Baptist church in the pres
ence of a large crowd Sundaj’ at ( lever,

If I have any voice in regard to our
reunion, of which I think I have, it
seems to me that Mt Zoo. who doubt

Concordand Hard t >i, ought to iny
through their correspondent at Zetella
I whether they want our reunion this
.A year or not, and it looks that if Senoia
1 , Enterprise-Gazette can have a gover
nor, U. 8. congressman and State
school commissioner, we G. S. W.
folks could at least have annual speak
ers and an ex-congressman, and I sug
gest, if 1 can get a motion on it, we in
vite Hon. C. L. Moses, of Senoia, to ad
dress us on that day. The reunion has
been a success in the pa-t and we hope
I it will hold its own in the future.
CONCORD CULLINGS
Concord, Ga., Juno 16.—The big
gest boom on here row is the in
corporated district school and the
erection of anew school house. The
board of trustees held a very inter
esting meeting Saturday morning
and decided to build anew school
house, provided they can get the
00-operatiou of the people. The
board decided to raise the money by
subscription and H. U. Oxford, Dr.
R. A. Mallory, J. C. McDaniel, J.
H. Smith, J. W. Strickland, W. F.
Madden and J. T. Fossett, were ap
pointed to take subscriptions. The
committee will meet at the M. G. I.
Saturday afternoon at four o'clock
to arrange a plan to raise the money.
This is doubtless a gool step in the
right direction, as a new house is
very much needed and has become
a necessity. The old one was built
in ancient style and is very incon
venient and uncomfortable and has
become very much dilapidated.
Prof R. A. Carreker has been re
elected principal of the M G. I. for
the ensuing year and has accepted
the position.
The literary scciety and Sunday
schools held their annual picnic at
Warm Springs Friday. There were
sixty in attendance from here. They
enjoyed the day so well they say they
are going back again some time in
July.
-Among those who attended the
singing from here at Bethany Sun
day were T E Mathews, J U. Har
ris, Miss Flora Mathews, Miss Lucv
Haris, Bennie Marshall and sister,
Miss Claudie.
The many friends of Miss Mattie
Spurlin will be glad to know chat
she is recovering from a severe at
tack of measles. We suppose this
is the last case here this season, as
we knew of no one else who has
been expo.-ed,
R&v. C. V. Weathers filled bis
regular appointment here Sunday,
and after preaching a very interest
ing sermon to an attentive audience,
held a short church conference.
The conference elected J. E. Harris
delegate, and J. T Fossett, alter
nate, to the district conference,
which convenes in Barnesville next
July.
After the expenses of the oom
menci’ment exercises at the M. G I.
were paid there was a neat little
ballancs left of twenty-five dollars,
which has been turned over to the
treasurer of the board of school
trustees to b« used as school funds
to pay for coal, etc.
Smith B. os are receiving many
bands to work in their large nurse
ry, as a result of a small advertise
ment inserted in the News and Sun
a few weeks ago. Many say they
saw the -advertisement, which in
duced them to come. They are
coming from Columbus, LaGrange,
Sunny Side, Griffin and various
other places, and still there is room
for many more. As this is the bud
ding season it makes it a very busy
time with the nursery men. Good
moral: When you open your doors
and want customers to come, just
advertise your business in the News
and Sun, the G. S. W.
Misses Luda and Florence Bates,
of near here, spent last week with
their aunt, Mrs. Della Parks, of
Thomaston. Tney report a very
pleasant trip.
Mias Jennie Lou Bowen, one of
our roost accomplished young la
dies, was among those who attend
ed the annual singing at Bethany
Sunday.
The farmers are plaving havoc

GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, JUNE 19. 1903,
FIGHTING
Our valued correspondent and agent at Silvey, H. T. Spraggins, bet
ter know over the length and breadth of Middle Georgia as “Silvey
Snowflakes,” announces that after warring against the spirit for three
years he has at last concluded to turn around and fight the devil by
giving up all other business and studying (Sod’s word In this we wish
him God speed, and hope that he will be as faithful in this as we have
found him in every thing else.
Brother Spraggins sot-ms to have an idL that if the editor of the
News and Sun and its correspondents woul'd all follow in his footsteps, it
were a consummation devoutly to be wished ; but we can not agree with
him. If he will pardon the presumption of the claim, we probably have
seen more of the devil and know more aboiit his works than ho does.
Ho is a many-sided gentleman, who has tq be fought in different ways,
an Iwa use the way that belongs to our business. We run a secular
paper, but we always uphold the right over the wrong, encourage all
church enterprises and prefer to give more space to revivals than to sen
sational crim: s. Wo give all the appointments of all the preachers in
this territory, and are regarded by them as their organ, though they
have too much sense to expect us to print all their sermons. When i f
comes to the prolix and didactic moral refactions and prayers of our cor
respondents, we most in general cut them out, simply because they do
not belong there, though partly in sympathy with some ot our more
frivolous subscribers to whom they would be as swine before pearls.
We expect to continue this course, even though it cause us to fall
under the spiritual displeasure of any others of our correspondents, who
may learn the true way through godly association with the News and
Suu and its corps of correspondents. Let Brother Spraggins exercise to
smite Satan down with his mighty battle axe, but m the meantime as he
urns ana writhes with agony in the fiery pit we shall continue to spit
him a few thrusts with our well-tried lance. Wo do not nope to do
him up, but w? are willing to do our best to keep him down.
SILVEY SNOWFLAKES MAKES
HIS FAREWELL ADDRESS.
Stops Work as Correspondent to Give Ail His Time to
Study of God’s Word.
Filvky, Ga , June 17., 1903.
News ana Suu, Griffin, Ga. Dear
Correspondents and Readers:—!
made the announcement in my last
letter that I had under considera
li.cn of leaving the columns asc
regular correspondent for a more
high calling. Now, as it has
brought much irqiiry why and
what that calling is, Mr. Editor, I
will ask just space once more in
your valuable paper to try in a
feeble way to answer why I will
have to bid adieu to the G. S. W.
us coirespondent. Now, I know
that I will bo uadersteod by some
of the correspondents and readers,
while with others they can’t under
stand, therefore I will get no sym
pathy from them.
Nov/, friends, for something over
three years I have had impressions
by the spirit, which I have worked
againi t with Satan as my captain.
At times the impression would be
so powerful that I would refuse to
read my Bible for as long as a week
at a time, but when I would take it
up to read the same impression
would come again, and for over
three .years I have been fighting it.
Now friends, I felt that if tne Lord
would let me do such things as I
felt like I wanted to do, I would bo
willing to do them, and I would
pray Him just to give me these
things to do. But his ways are as
much higher than my ways as the
heavi ns are h : gher than the earth.
And being fully persuaded t hi t what
He has premised he is also able to
perform, so as the potter’s clay, I
have laid rayself into His hands for
Him to make cut of me just such a
vessel as will be to His honor and
glory, and where He leads I will fol
low.
Now, friends, the lovo of God
works in mysterious ways His wot
ders to perform, and “whosoever

Bethany, Ga,. June 17. —Sunday f
was a day that will be well remembered
by a good many people who attended
the singing here. The singing was a
great success and tujoyed by all pres- ,
ent. There were people present from ,
Senoia, Griffin, Concord, Pedenville,
'Zebulon and several other places. The ;
singers present were \V. J. and H F. ,
Brook; .md N. B. Lunceford, of Griffin ; .
J. F. Davis, of Zetella, and Add Ale- i
Leroy, of Vaughns. Ths house was -
crowded ail day and had good behavior
inside and outside.
R. H. Yarbrough is the champion ,
mink killer, killing seven at one time ;
but, too late, they had already killed
and eat a hundred chicliens.
P. T. Horton is the first to get
through chopping cotton around here.
As to the program of the reunion, I
think it would ba very nice for every
correspondent to take a part. This
scribe went up to see the bachelor twice
Saturday week, but failed to see him
either time. Am in hopes he will be
in next time I call on him.
Next Sunday is preaching day here;
everybody come and bling someone
w i.h them.
We are sorry to state that Mrs. 11. W.
He lovefh Ho also chestenetb, ” and
I know that I have bad chasti-ement
‘his year for my disobedience.
Christmas day I promised that, I
would ba of more service in my
master’s vineyard this year than I
bad been in the past, but I wanted
(o pick out just such things as J
nted to do, then I would ask the
Lori to let me do them, and the
things I felt impressed to do I want
ed someone else to do. Why did I
fed tl is way? Because the evil
spirit would toll me to do the things
that I felt impressed to do. I wou d
put myself up as a public target for
the world to shoot at. “Blessed are
ye when you shall bo persecuted for
my name sake.” “Whos ever be
ashamed of nu and my work in this
sinful and adulterous generation,
him also will Iba ashamed when 1
come before my Father and His
holv angels. ”
Now, friends, for the above rea
sons, that I may give all ray tim?
ito the study of God’s word, I will
leave off us a rfgnl : r o, rrtspondent,
but did think tb> t I would write
occasionally ; b ”, as the editor
would not publish such letters as I
i might write, so 1 will say to those
I who say they will discontinue their
subscriptic ns when their time ex-
I pirns, don’t let me stop your sub
scription because I know the editor
to be a perfect gentleman and some
I of the correspondents I know to be
I Christian gentlemen and ladies, and
i each one, if the editor would en
courage them by publishing such
J things as they could write, tho G.
i S. W. could do a great deal towards
[ upbuilding the Zon of Christ’s
kingdom in the many homes that it
visits each week.
I will now say goodbve to each
one of the large family with a
hearty God bless you Perhaps I
may not meet, you all at the associ
ation in August 1 ask an interest
in all pravprs of correspondents and
readers. Yours, “Snowflakes.”
