SHAW, “THE CHAMPION' Clothier and Furnisher, 117 Forsyth St., AMERICUS, - GA. The fourth quarterly meeting or the Sumter County Sunday School Associa- tion convened at Leslie last Thursday, Nov. (1. The meeting was called to order by the president: minutes and roll call of officers omitted. Mr. Kirby Jones was elected secretary pro tern, of the meet ing, the regular official holding that office being absent. The following was the programme of the day’s exercises: Speech of welcome by Master Jimmie Bailey. Responsive Address, by Maj. M. Speer. Address—“Teaching the Lesson’’—By Rev. Robert Adams of Americus. Essay—By Miss Aurelia Sims. Recitation—By Master Frank Janes. Recitation—By Miss Bessie Janes. Recess for dinner. AFTERNOON. Address—“The Church and the Sun day-school,” by Judge J. A. Analey. Songs by visiting schools. Reports of delegates. Song—By Miss Bessie Janes. Short addresses by Major Black, Mr. J. W. Wheatley, Rev. Robert Adams and Major Speer. Every part of the programme was well rendered and very greatly enjoyed. The speech of welcome by Master James Bally, the essay by Miss Aurelia Sims, and the recitation by Miss Bessie Janes and Master Frank Janes were especially enjoyed. The songs by the Leslie school were well sung, and the address of Rev. Robert Adams was one of the most pointed and practically useful ever made before the association. As for the dinner nothing need be said. It “spoke” for itself, and the way in which it disappeared told more pow erfully than words, of the abundance and excellence of the feast. The whole day was one of the most pleasant in the history of the association, and the meeting adjourned with a reso lution of most hearty thanks to the Leslie school and citizens for their hos pitality.

One of the livest and most enterpris ing houses in Georgia comes to the front in the advertising columns of Tiie Timks-Recori>kk this morning, Messrs. Eads, Neel & Co. of Macon; and they propose to make it mighty interesting for their competitors in the clothing business in Southwest Georgia. They claim to be the largest retail clothiers in Georgia, carrying the largest stock in the largest store in the State. Mr. John C. Eads will come down to Americus in a few days; for in addition to meeting the people in these columns, he wants to get acquainted personally with our live and progressive citizens. He, as well as his house, is well known in Georgia; and Mr. Eads is himself one of the most enterprising and prosperous merchants of the Central City. Read their advertisement carefully in another column. Fine Polatuei. Mr. W. II. Tatum of Huntington comes to the front as the champion po tato raiser of Sumter.

Price, a Justice of the Peace, at Richland, Nebraska, was con fined to his bed last winter with a se vere attack of lurabiigo; but a thorough application of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm enabled him to get up and go to work.
