Older Roys’ Conference.
The Older Boys’ Conference
was held at the Y. M. C. A. build
ing in Atlanta December 1,2, 3,
1916. There were 323 delegates
from 22 different schools of Geor
gia; also some from other States:
Mississippi, Tennessee,.South Car
olina, and North Carolina.
The services began Friday eve
ning, 7:45 p. m., on time, after
an interesting visit to the Federal
prison. Officers were elected at
the first meeting: President, Mr.
Fred E. Smith, senior of Locust
Grove district; vice president, Mr.
Davison of Augusta; secretary,
Mr. White of Atlanta.
The meetings were well worth
while. Every boy, I think, was
on time, and enjoyed deep down
in their hearts the messages the
speakers brought to us. The
speakers consisted of Mr. \V. ,J
Milner of Atlanta, Mayor-elect Asa
G. Candler, Prof. W. A. Sutton o!
Atlanta, Mr. C. C. Menzler of Ten
nessee, Mr. W. 13. Godfrey of Mis
sissippi, and Mr. McDonald of At
lanta.
Every boy Jiad the opportunity
to see the Boys High and Tech
game free Saturday afternoon,
and most of them witnessed the
games.
A group of all the delegates
was made Saturday morning in
the rear of the tabernacle. The
conference banquent was held in
the Y. M. C. A. building Saturday,
7:00 p. m., of which everybody
shared their part of something
good to eat, while music was
made by the band.
From our school, L. G. 1., there
were 25 delegates present, and
am sure everyone feels benefited.
Several telegrams came to us
while there, wishing us a success
ful meeting; but the one most
gladly received was from our
President, Woodrow Wilson.
The last meeting was held in
Broughton’s Tabernacle Sunday
night, beginning at 8 o’clock. The
leaders of all the schools had the
privilege to testify, and tell how
much they had accomplished
while there.
The last address was by Mr.
Blake W. Godfrey of Mississippi,
after which all the delegates lined
up around the aisles, joined hands
and sang “Blessed Is the Tie That
Binds.” Just after the adjourn
ment baptizing took place in the
same building by the p istor of
Broughtcn’s Tabernacle.
We are sure everyone present
came away more determined to
do better work for the Y. M. C.
A. in the future. DELEGATE.

Signature of
Subscription Notice.
On the first of January it will
be necessary to raise the subscrip
tion price of The Weekly to $1.50.
We have done our best to pre
vent the increase, and sincerely
regret to do so, but the high cost
of paper and all materials at last
compel the change. Blank paper
now costs more than double what
The Weekly paid in the early
spring, and numbers of the week
ly papers made the raise in Sep
tember.
Mr. A. C. Oglesby has agreed to
see as many of our subscribers
personally between now and .Jan
uary first as possible, and all who
desire to do so can pay a year in
advance at the old price of $1 00.
We hope as many as possible
will take advantage of the
opportunity, and assure you that
as soon as conditions return to
normal The Weekly will be only
too glad to resume formal dollar
schedule. We trust and believe
our readers will appreciate the
necessity which impels the
situation. Mr. Oglesby is author
ized to receipt for any amounts,
and all favors shown him will
have the full appreciation of The
Weekly.

children began choking and cough

an attack of Croup,” writes Billie
Mayberry, Eckert, Ga. “I got a

gave them a dose before bedtime
