education-character
At the Midway Sunday school
fcuuday _ afternoon those present
were especially impressed with the
chalk talk made by Superintendent
Peppier.
In discussing the various phases
of the lesson for Sunday Professor
Peppier said that he had recently
asked his classes at Emory this
question: “What is the purpose
of education?”
He said that he had received a
large number of replies the ma
jority of which were to the
that “the purpose of education is
to cultivate the mind.”
l ( While I consider this
a very
good answer,' said Professor
Peppier, “yet I do not consider
that it fully answers the question.
I believe that the purpose of edu
cation is, first, to develop charac
ter no man can succeed in any
thing.”

Cotton Playing About 9c
A merchant remarked a few days
ago that 011 a trip through one aston-' sec
tion of the county he was
ished to find so many bales of cot
ton stored at the-farm houses along
the way.
Many of these are last year’s
crop as well as of this year’s
growth. The amount of cotton
being held yet in this county
amounts to a considerable
and it seems that nothing short of
high prices will eutice this fleecy
staple from its resting places and
pul it in the mar ket of trade.
Twice last week the price of cot
ton in Covington touched the 9
cents po i nt and for extra good
s ^apie a fraction over was offered

This was used in connection
with the lessens to be drawn from
the life of David and his 60118,
Absalom, Adauijah and Solomon,
and the talk made by Dr. Peppier
was accompanied by striking
blackboard illustrations that im¬
pressed every one present.
The Midway Sunday school is
continuing its steady growth and
last Sunday showed an increase in
at endance and contributions over
the correspordmg Sunday for last
year,
Besides the lesson features of
this Sunday school the musical
part, under the direction of Mrs.
W. C. Clark is always an attrac

The organization of these teams'

state and no doubt they would be
invited to the next Grand Lodge
session to exemplify the work.

the ten cent point much will no

and altogether this makes the pros

o'her circumstances,
There is yet a great deal of trad

this county and the merchants ot
Covington have the stocks of goods
on hand to meet the demands when
they come, and the buyer will find

THERE WILL BE NO WHITE
PRIMARY HELD
JUST A FREE
FOR ALL FIGHT
Charles G. Smith Announced to
Oppose S. P. Thompson for
The Mayoralty.
Covington will have no white
primary for its city officers this
year.
It will be a free for all fight, and
it appears now that the city will
see a rea l *ive campaign.
At the mass meeting held at the
court house Monday evening, call
to1 "^’ Cil " 39 published in
j wee ^ s enterprise, the matter
having a white primary was
cussed and it was deemed not nec
essary at this time, hence the
mefe ti n S adjourned without elect¬
ing a new city executive com¬
rnittee and no primary will be
called.
This leaves all to fight it out in
the election which occurs on the
third Monday in December.
Following the meeting Monday
night was the announcement made
Tuesday morning that Mayor S.
P. Thompson would not have easy
sailing, as Charles G. Smith an
notmeed himself as a candidate for
mayor and since that time both
gentlemen have been making an
active canvass among their friends
presenting their claims for the of
fice.
Mr. Sink h is a well known
vbuSf man and his friends insisted
that he should become a candidate
and they have actively taken up
his cause, The canvass of the two
gentlemen insures 3ome real inter¬
est in the election and there will
be lots of work done between this
and the day of the election.
