U’s, etc., of the Centennial Association, which was held at I.ifsey Springs last week, was a great success, even sur passing the highest expectations of those who promoted it. The attend ance was fine throughout the week and everything passed off in an ex cellent way. Rev. Arthur Jackson, Mr. Joe 11. Smith, Airs. Ella Bowers, Mrs. H. F. Morrell, Mrs. Emmett Langford and Airs. O. T. Dewberry were largely in ; charge of all the details which con tributed to the success of the under-1 taking. Everybody who attended, either regularly or from time to time, had a genuinely good time every day. Real work was done by those who attended, studying diligently the sev eral courses provided by the program and a large number will be awarded diplomas. There were several in spirational addresses by leading men and women of the Baptist denomina tion of the state and much good was certainly accomplished. Among the visiting men and women whose ser vices were so helpful were Rev. Fred E. Smith of Hapeville, Rev. J. Fred Edens of Toccoa, Mr. H. L. Batts, State B. Y. P. U. secretary, Prof. R. W. Edenfield, Mr. George W. An drews, State Sunday School secre tary, Mrs. C. W. King of Atlanta, Rev. H. N. Alassey of Jonesboro, Airs. Claude Gray of Locust Grove, Dr. L. AI. Latimer of Griffin, Rev. 11. M. Fugate of Alacon, Rev. C. S. Durden of Thomaston, Mrs. J. F, Fowler, Alissionary to Argentina. The even ing services were attended by large crowds from the surrounding com munity. In addition to the study and wor ship everybody enjoyed the recrea tion and the bathing in the pools. It was indeed a wonderful success and it is believed the encampment next year will be much more largely at tended and even a bigger success in every way. “NO MORE WAR” PARADE Under the auspices of the Barnes ville Chapter of that great and useful organization, the Woman’s Chris tian Temperance Union, there was an impressive parade last Saturday morning, represented by a number of organizations and individuals, with cars properly decorated with “No more war” placards, the parade go ing through the main streets of the city.
