DECORATE FOR COM
MENCEMENT CHAUTAUQUA
Jt begins to look like Barnes
ville is going to have the biggest
event in the Commencement-
Chautauqua occasion that the
Bttle city has known in years.
There is going to be hundreds
of visitors and the citizens
should use every effort to get all
the good possible of the event for
the community. To do this, a
good impression must be made.
There should be a big demonstra
tion.
Nothing will help more than
for the people to decorate. Let.
every store and busi iess house;
and home be liberally and beau-;
tifully decorated. Let streamers;
float in every breeze, let there j
be proper but tasty decorations,
exterior and interior and every
body, homefolks and visitors will
catch the spirit of the occasion
which adds greatly to the success
of tin* occasion.
Let everybody get ready to de
florate liberally for Commence- 1
nient-Chautauqua.
This is the season of the sweet
girl graduate and the commence
ment dress.
We are awfully glad to observe
that the automobile craze hasn't
struck Barnesvills vet, especially
the racing kind.
Don’t forget to do that, paint-j
ing, brushing up and cleaning
up around your places. It will
help will out things wonderfully. ■

The weather man hasn’t treated
ue right recently. He didn’t give
us any spring and now In* is giv
ing us the hottest kind of a sum
mer.
Those baseball games during the
Chautauqua will lie no minor
feature of that occasion. We will
have the opportunity of witness
ing some rare sport in that line.
What about that roller mill?
Don't let the matter drop without
securing one for our town. It is
a necessity ns well as a tine in
vestment. so lets have one by all
means.
Other towns may have their
Chautauqua* but none of them
<aii touch lhirnesville when it
comes to having Chautauquas that
entertain and please the people.
Come and see what we can give
you from June the 12th to 20th.
“There never will he a monu
ment high enough, nor pure
enough, nor grand enough for the
women of the south. 1 will not
die, if the good Lord spares me.
till I see that monument and the
southern sun shining around it-.”
—Gen. Johu B. Gordon at New
Orleans.
Bella—l certainly think you
deserve great credit For your kind
ness to your mother.
Mildred—Oh, its only natural.
Bella—l don’t know. It isn’t
every daughter that invites hei
mother to her swellest dinner par
ties, as you do.—Brooklyn Life.
The New Port.
A coat and pants suit; for the fashionable well
dressed, common sense critical man who wants
a cool, comfortable, nobby suit for this weather.
Some points in the Newport suit.
Wool Crash, Irish Homespun, unlined except
shoulders, have enough padding to keep them in
perfect shape, yet not being bunglesome.
4 button sack. Cancave sack, concove should
ers, hand made collar, cuffs on trousers, belt straps.
Pateut Newport side fastening. ’Tis an ideal
summer garment, made perfect in every detail.
You’ll not have to have the judgment of a Morgan
or the brnins of a Webster to know what one needs
for this kind of weather.
When you see the Newport Suit, it’ll not be
necessary for you to consult your wife, but you
to ask her about the color.
Why there’s something
in our clothing that seems
to meet the demand of the
dressers. It’s worth a
dollar or more even in
satisfaction, not even con
sidering the making and
a thousand other “little
ties” that go to make the
Collier Clothes.
Everybody knows that
when they go the Collier
Stores for a suit and pay,
say twelve-fifty, and you
are not satisfied, you re
turn the suit, you’ll go
out jingling the financial
“spot” in your pocket.
Does this count any
thing with you?—no more
than the price of, Mr.
Other Fellows—
-7.50 to is.flii
. . Lots and lots of People . .
We mean some people “drop in” at just anyplace
to bny a good pair of shoes. Well we have some “drop
in” trade to come to us and say that the last pair of
shoes didn’t give them good wear. Naturally they
didn’t. The man you bought them from didn’t exer
cise any more judgement and care in buying them than
you did. You “dropped in” to buy from a “drop in” man <
We sell good shoes.
That's our line.
It’ll not be necessary for you to complain to some
one else when you come here. We’ll stand by any shoe
we sell that we’ve branded. \\ e’ve got plenty of shoes
that we sell besides “Blue Steel” for children, but they
are for the little ladies that want to get out of the every
day ones for Sunday. Avery, very pretty lot at $1.25
to S3OO the litt'e Miss.
Strand Ties $2.50 to $4 00
Regent - $3 Soto $4 00 Shoe
Can you see SvCX3 and $6.00 in a pair o flow cuts?
—you’ll -see that much in a pair of J. &M. What’s the
use keep’ng vour foot in misery? It’s worth sls° to
$2.30 for a summer of comfort. Beg your pardon for
mentioning so frequently our ladies’ tine slippers, but
we’ve got a good thing, and pushing pays. It would
pay without pushing, but •
A great line of . . .

Take Heed of
What Ye Hear
Editor Nkwh-Gazette :
I recently came in possession of
! a small circular being distributed,
I suppose, throughout our county
on the subject of Sunday Schools,
asking questions of parents and
others of young people.
Such questions, while no doubt,
asked in the best of faith in the
j matter, to mv understanding of
the Scriptures and the plan of
Salvation, are very misleading
j and dangerous even to the happi
ness of our people. If I under
i stand the writer the idea is that
such teaching leads one up to
Christianity.
I will say just here that people
cannot be taught Christianity
and I make this assertion in the
[ fear of Gud, and without fear of
successful contradiction. Neither
do 1 believe that one who lias
passed through repentance toward
God, and been given faith in the
Lord .Jesus Christ as the only
Savior of sinners could believe
j such teaching.
Because the Scriptures plainly
! teach that it is not by power or
iby might but by my spirit saith
| the Lord, not of works lest any
man should boast for we are his
work, manship, created in Christ
Jesus unto good works, which was
before ordafiled that we should
walk in them, not the swift nor
the slow, neither to him that
willeth nor to him that, runneth
but to God, who sin weth mercy.
I would not be misunderstood
jas to good works. I believe in
them and advocate them in their
■ proper places and believe them
to be the fruits of faith and not
11he source of faith.
People are still teaching tin
law as the means of eternal Sal
j vat ion and if they could only
j realize that though they keep
j the whole and only fail in one
point that they are guilty of all.
Then who is able to stand on this
foundation. There never was a
| man or woman that kept it and
never will be..
But the law is good and of much
benefit to those who use it law
fully. I will at some future time
give my views mu the benefits of
keeping the law as I understand
the Scriptures to teach it.
Hoping tliis may cause someone
j to search the Scriptures for infor
mation on this important subject
l will close for this time.
Yours Fraternally,
T. E. Whittle.

A Child and Its Name.
“Vast Yilain Paul Trond Prosper
Come Napoleon” are the names
which have been given to a child
born in a French village near the
Belgian frontier. The names form
a sentence in French of which the
translation is, “Go, vile poltroon;
prosper like Napoleon.”
As He Thought.
“You are in my pew,” said Mr.
Upjohn stiffly.
“Then I am sitting in the seat of
the scornful!” replied the stranger,
getting out of it with alacrity and
taking a seat farther back in the
church—Cassell’s Journal.
