Like all good things dinner was too soon over and the sighs of sat¬ is faction could be heard on al sides a. we stood about in groups and admired the scenery. Just across the road from the splen¬ did church stands Flint Rock school, presided- over by Miss Ola 11. Malone, with Miss Annie Lee and Inez Elling¬ ton as assistants. There is an enroll¬ ment of nearly one-hundred pupils, who endorse our praise of their teachers. Pres. G. YV. Andrews was so happy that he could not wait until 2 o’clock, so Prof. Jessie Piper, about 1:30 was called to lead. He called on Prof. Kitehensto take charge, but he dodged the issue and had the chairmaftship thrust upon him, which he gracefully accepted and then proceeded in his hap¬ py way to make it a day long to be re¬ membered by all those present. Mes¬ srs. Gresham, Coalson and Butler were appointed to arrange a program, which was as follows. “The Beautiful Land,” led Aiy Pres. Andrews wh j has added one more to the one he kpew before, making two in all that he can lead, but we promise that he will spread out and add a few more before ihe real season opens, and we will make him take a prominent part in the leading a little later. Prof. T. G. Boggus load the first lesson, singing, "When the Master Calls,” "Lift the Standard Today,” and “Jesus Paid it All,” in a masterful way, showing a deep appreciation and knowl¬ edge of music, and that he had wonder¬ ful control of an excellent voice. Miss Jessie May Jones presided at. the organ in a graceful manner, playing feelingly Stewart came next, singing “Bye and Bye,” “Led by the Holy One,” and “Precious Book,” which, was a splendid number, and did credit to the leader. Miss Clelia Piper was now organist and assisted greatly by her perfect pftiying. X. C. C. (our own) quartette, sang ■‘Crossing the Bar,” in a matchless way and caused a murmter of appreciation to run through the house. Prof. Piper then lead “The Greatest Blessing,“My Life I count not drear,” and “On the Way With Jesus in the usual happy and pleasing Piper way. Prof. S. E. Coalson (Sister Sam) was called next and led “None Will be Strangers there.” and- “Leaning on the Everlast¬ ing Arm," and then with little Lorene Thompson, our little sweet-toned ten y ear-old musical prodigy, sang as a duel. “The Heart that was Broken for Me," which was a musical as well as educational treat, and it brought forth hearty applause. Prof. Piper was called, and lei, Waiting,’’ “Till All the World is Won” and "I'll See .Him face to face," inhis usual happy style. This number was so good that it made President An¬ drews forget the number. Prof. J. J. Hulsey was then called and led the good old camp meeting hymn, “When J can Read My Title Clear.” which caught the crowded house, and such a volume of harmonious praise rose up towards heaven as you seldom hear. This was followed by "l am Hoping to be There." and “A Land of Beauty," for convincing tone for which the sing er is so noted. Pres. Andrews in a few remarks in which he praised Rev. .1. B. Gresham for being a friend to Liberty Singing Class, and said he was going to ask him to lead a few songs. The quartette, composed of Prof. S. E. Coalson, B. F. iKtchens Jesse Piper and John F. Norman, sang “The Lord is My Shepherd” (which was mistaken by President Andrews for the Lord’s Prayer last Sunday and caused some of the visitors to think that he was not much of a Bible student, but he is.) so feelingly and tenderly that everyone was touched. This was followed by “Will All Co Home,” which is indeed :t splendid song, and was perfectly sung by these earnest, forceful gentlemen. Rev. J. B. Gresham then announced that Bro. Penn would preach here to night but that he felt too bad to sing. Prof. Day was then called and led. in the clear, forceful Day way, “I’m Going that Way,” “Better Further On." Prof. B. 1,. Kitchens, lead “Ready to Go. I’ll be There,” “Marching Along with Joyful Song,” and “Follow the King of All,” in that catching way- for whieh he is so justly famous. Prof M. A. Burch came next with “Looking to Thee,” “Glad Reunion on the Other Shore,” in his own good way. Mr. Carl Butler the led, “Shall it Be You” and “When the Master Calls.” in a touching manner. Our own quartette then sang. “That Beautiful Land,” and "Mother,” so touchingly and tenderly as to bring tears to many eyes. Prof, j. L. Ramsey then led “Glorious News.” “What Shall Our Answer Be,” and “Resound His Praise.”. After this Mr. R. E. Lee dismissed the audience with an earnest prayer, and we gathered around making new acquaintances, and discussing the many happy events of the day, and soon we were on our home w;ird,journey, hsfttpy over a well-spent • day, in singing songs of praise that ; came straight from the hearts-of the ] singers. Theye were a great many la j dies present and their interest never' j relaxed for an instant. Their voices \ front hearts as pure as gold, tuned to perfection with “the harp of a thou¬ sand strings," played upon only by the Angels in heaven, and full of praise, for THE COVINGTON NEWS, COVINGTON, GEORGIA ROCK HILL NEWS The housecovering given by Mr. Dolph McCullough last Wednesday*was enjoyed by a large crowd: ' also m the dance Wednesday night.

PRACTICAL TRAINING IN THRIFT The American Bankers Association recently called for a semi-annual report on all school savings banking systems. These show that the pupils either de¬ posited in regular bank nre, oun directly or- through the purchase of stamps a total of ,691,856.55 between the opening of the present school yea" and February 1. The total report 'd for the entire school year of 1919-192" w.as $2,800.301.18. On February 1, the pupils had $381.- 48S in undivided school deposits; bal¬ ance in individual pupil accountsr $3,- 819,883.52: a total of $4,200,872.32. Ow¬ ing to the failure of many operating savings banks to segregate such ac¬ counts of many opei*ating saving a counts, this amount is estimated to be less than 50 per cent of the balance t-> the credit of pupils in the operating banks. It compares with a total if $2,740,628.49 reported for the school year 1919-1920. The report is for 2.620 school build¬ ings, with a total enrollment of 1.430, 936 pupils.

Cash withdrawals by pupils are re¬ ported as $583,009.14. the divine grace given, they sang so clearly ami, sweetly, adding untold val ue to the good tone of the male voices. \Ve thank God for the influence of oili good women, and may it ever increase.

PfiTnt Rock, Ala.—Mrs. C. M. Stegall, of near here, recently related the fol¬ lowing interesting account of her re¬ covery: “I wag in a weakened con¬ dition. I was sick three years in bed, suffering a great deal of pain, weak, nervous, depressed. I was so weak, I couldn’t walk across the floor; just had to lay and my little ones do the work. I was almost dead. I tried every thing I heard of, and a number of doctors, 3till I didn’t get any relief, I couldn’t eat, and slept poorly. I believe if I hadn’t heard of and taken Cardui I would, have died. I bought i six bottles, after a neighbor told ma ! what it did for her. “I began to eat and sleep, began to gain my strength and am now well and strong. I haven’t had any trou¬ ble since ...
