Happy Happenings.
The fields are looking like the
harvest time is nearly over in this
community.
Mr. Robert Hale, of Conyers,
and Mrs. Arvella Lewis, of River
dale, were the guests of Mr. R. F.
Stanfield and family Monday.
Mrs. D. L. McLendon and her
two daughters, Mrs. Minnie Pool
and Mrs. Carrie Daniel, visited
Mrs. Irvin Belcher at Brooks
Station Saturday, Sunday, and
Monday.
Mrs. Jesse Stanfield and Miss
Susie Stanfield made a business
trip to Griffin Thursday.
On last Sunday morning Rev.
A. S. Ulm preached his farewell
serman to the people of Liberty
Hill church. All the members
regretted very much to see him
leave, but they relected another
in his place, which we hope will
be as good; as they give Brother
Ulm the farewell handshake, they
gave Rev. Homer Adamsom, the
handshake to welcoming him in
our midst, or to serve us another
year, which he promised us he
would do. And we hope to see
all the members out at each
service to help him, as we expect
him to help us as pastor. Without
the church to stand by him he is
just as weak as the church with
out the pastor, and we all know
that without a pastor we cannot
do much. So the members of
all churches should cling to each
other and worship God and not
be divided in any way, for the
Bible says a house divided against
itself cannot stand. So, there
fore, brethern, we should lay down
all malice, hatred, and strife and
think of higher and holier things.
For we see that every day more
of our friends and loved ones are
passing away and all such things
as these will do in some way to
live by, but, oh, when we come to
die they wont do to die by, and
that is why we should try to do
in life just as we would when we
are expecting to die.
Brother Ulm had served us
about three years and of course
we had learned to love him. He
was a man filled with the spirit
and his farewell serman was a
good one. We hope God will
bless him in his field of work and
keep him always.
Uncle Mack, I have not had the
opportunity to write as I would
like to for the past few weeks.
1 think you and others should
give us some good letters on dif
ferent subjects. I thank all who
have complimented my letters in
paper and out of it, as I have had
a number of people to tell me my
letters were good. You know
sometimes a word of cheer to the
living is more than to plant the
flowers on the grave. And, as
for myself, I haven’t aught against
any one. What I write is for
good and not for evil. I don’t
write to hurt any one’s feeling at
all. As for the letters that are
written to the paper, I enjoy
reading them all, and don’t propose
.to disagree with them, if visiting
•is what they want to write about.
But a good letter sometimes of
some other kind gives our readers
something new to and helps
us to study of something higher
and nobler than the past-time of
the day.
Conley, your letter was fine
this week. I hertily agree with
you and sometime when I have
time and space to write, I will
help you on this point. Come
again.

Helps the Farmer to Sell
THE FARMER was worried over the market
reports. Cotton was rising. When it reached
a certain figure he proposed to sell. The day
before it had almo»t reached his price. What
would it bring today?
The farmer needed first-hand information at once. He
stepped to his Bell Telephone. The Long Distance connection
with the buyer in a distant city informed him that cotton had
reached the top figure, and he sold his crop at a handsome profit.
The Universal Bell System enables the producer in remote
rural districts to keep in touch with market conditions without
the necessity of leaving home.
