Colonel Sam Wilkes
Flere
Colonel Sam Wilkes of the Georgia
and West Point Route dropped in to
pay us a call Thursday. He is always
in pretty good touch with general con
ditions as he travels a great deal. He
is very optomistic as to the business
outlook for this fall and winter, re
ports from every quarter give promise
of a wonderful crop. If reasonably
good prices prevail Georgia will have
more money than for a long time,
South Georgia is on velvet by reason of
her wonderful tobacco sales. A splen
did corn crop was made this year and
with hogs, hens, cows and corn. Geor
gia will begin 19 30 in fine condition,
“The management of the Georgia
railroad is always glad to know of
your county fair which we observe
will begin early in October,’’ stated
Mr. Wilkes.

taste. WE MUST HAVE THE BEST
COUNTY HISTORY IN THE STATE.
I very greatly appreciate this hon
or which the citizens of our good coun

Christian Science
Society
“Matter” was tllie subject of the
Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Sei
enee Society of Covington last Sun
day.
Among the citations which com
prised the Lesson-Sermon was the fol
lowing from the Bible: “No man can
serve two masters: for either he will
hate the one. and love the other; or
else he will hold to the one, and de
spise the other. Ye cannot serve God
and mammon’’ (Matt. 6:24).
The Lesson-Sermon also included
the following passage from the Chris
tian Science textbook. “We cannot
serve two masters nor perceive divine
Science with the material senses. It is
not wise to take a halting and half
way position o r to expect to work
equally with Spirit and matter, Truth
and error. There is but one way,
namely, God and His idea, which
leads to spiritual being” (p. 167).
