A typographical error in onr last communication, knocked our mention of the singing convention out in the first round, but its to late now to explain matters.

We correspondents, are always filling up our space, by saying that Mr. so-an-so spent the day with Mr. and Mrs. so-an-so and that Dick, Tom, and Harry were out riding with their best “gals” but if the clever and genial Editor will allow us to digress a little, we want to make a suggestion to the music teachers, leaders, and chor isters, of our county in regard to organizing a singingconvention in Henry county, A number of counties throughout the state have organization of this kind, and we believe there is enough people in terested in music in our county, to launch out one of the best county conventions in the state. We suggest that the teachers and leaders in the county, take this matter under consideration, and that some definite action be taken within the next few months Jack. rdcDONOUCiH, GEORGIA, FRIDAY OCTOBER 15, IN LOVING MEMORY Of LIT TLE FANNIE IOUCRUM BLEY. On September 17, 1909. Mr and Mrs. V. L. Crumbley were grief stricken at the announcement of the death of their little daughter Fannie Lou 12 years old. There is much good that might be said of the life this little girl haslived. She was unusually bright and moral child. Her sweet, affectionate and cheer ful disposition had won many fri ends she was loved by all who knew her. We who are so incapable of com prehending the wonderful myste ries of God, were hopeful of much good that Fannie Lou might have done had she reached years of ma turity. Her delight was to lend a help ing hand in any way to comfort others. Surely the little brother and sister have lost a true and steadfast guide, sister has gone the way of the preceeding little ones over whom she watched be fore their departure. “How peaceful the slumber, How happy the waking.” Treas ures on heaven’s shore to draw dear kindred waiting to be called hence. We can’t know why the subject of a Father’s fondest hopes, and most eager anticipations, why the pride and joy of a mother’s heart why the cheerful disposition and honest heart of the oldest sister, should be torn from the loving em brace of parents and children, many fond hopes have be m van ished. i For some good purpose it was I the will of an a 1 wise God to fake j from the home a jewel whose ! brightness can not be hid. j From schoolmates a dear core panion whose influence for good will be lasting and from everyone a character whose example is wor thy of remembrance, “Though dead yet she liveth.” The fairest flower has only been plucked on earth to adorn a heav enly clime. May God’s comforting spirit heal the broken hearts and help them to feel, “The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away, Blessed be the name of the Lord.” One who loved her. Its A Top Notch Doer. Great deeds compel regard. The world crowns its doers. That’s why the Ameri can people haxe crowned Dr. King’s New Discovery the King of Throat and Lung remedies. Every atom is a health force. It kills germs, and colds and lagrippe van ish. It heals cough-racked membranes and coughing stops, Sore, inflamed bron chial tubes and lungs are cured and hem orrages cease. Dr. Geo.
