Garner, and family. THE COVINGTON NEWS Sunday School Institute at Prospect. The Oak Hill Sunday School Insti¬ tute met at Prospect church last Sat¬ urday. The Institute was called to order by President John Ogletree and listened to the reading of the twenty sixth chapter of Acts. Prayer was offered by E. W. Estes. The next feature on the program was the re¬ ports from the different Sunday Schools. These reports were very encouraging and all reported increas¬ ed interest and attendance. The question, “What relation does the Sunday School bear to the church, its purpose and its improvement,” was discussed by Rev. W. O. Butler, and handled well. Miss Foy Baker entertained the In¬ stitute with a fine essay on the last verse of the twenty-third Psalm. Mr. G. Q. Livingston discussed the question in a very entertaining man¬ ner, showing what is the Sunday School and what is the church. The next and very important feat¬ ure was the bounteous dinner which all participated in heartily. The institute resumed the discus¬ sion of the question at one o’clock. Some of the best addresses ever made on a subject of this kind were deliv¬ ered by Mr. E. W. Estes, Prof. R. H. B. Keeney, Rev. Cain, Mr. T. T. Sul¬ livan. As it was time for the elec¬ tion of new officers, Mr. E. W. Estes was chosen president; T. W. Hicks, vice-president; T. C. Cowan, secreta¬ ry. The question, “What should be the object of every teacher in going before his class?” will be discussed at Hopewell on the first Saturday in January. Those who fail to attend these meetings miss a great deal of valua¬ ble information on Sunday School work. xxx Covington Mill. Marvin Allison, of this place, left for Oklahoma last week.

Rowley had a quarrel with a horse dealer named Brant. It was a trivial matter, but Rowley took the next house to Brant, set up a piano, bought a cornet and proceeded to make insomnia for Brant. After one or two assault cases in court Brant moved. Rowley bought out the next door neighbor and followed with piano and cornet. Brant went to law, but found he could do nothing. Failing, he took a detached house. Theu Rowley hired brass bands and organs and assailed him. This was actionable, and Row ley paid £1,000 for his revenge.—Lon¬ don Tatler. Signal Flags, Signaling by flags, as the term is now universally understood, was in vented in the year 1854 by Surgeon Myer of the United States army. Be¬ fore Surgeon Myer’s invention the only flag signaling was by color; but, realiz¬ ing the inadequacy of such a mode of conveying information, Dr. Myer studied out the system of “wigwag¬ ging,” or talking, by making motions with the flag, a sort of deaf and dumb telegraphy, which has since been adopt¬ ed by pretty nearly all the nations of the world.—New York American. 3ii; W -y—■ X ' i . \ m FREE—Write For Our New Catalog Today.
