thousands of request* pour in from
farms. suburbs and penthouses And
all the writers of these letters meet
disappointment. Years
to 1923 there was an annual ap
proprration for free seeds for Con
pressional distribution through the
Department of Agriculture. But in
1923 the Government decided to dis
continue the distribution of this
great quantity of seed since it was
only commercial garden seed such
as could be bought from any goon
seed house and did not necessarily
represent varieties better than those
lrl common use. Not only does the
Department of Agriculture have nc
free seed, it has no seeds or plants
(or sale either.

OBSERVATIONS
From the Pastorium
REV. C. C. BUCRAI.EW
(Continued from Page Eight)
Pastor. Rev. Walton Stewart will
preach.
The people of the Methodist church
have been all that anyone could
ask them to be as good church neigh
bors and friends in time of need.
They have rendered us the use of
their building; the pastor has divid
ed his night services with us; and
has offered us a warm welcome at
all times. We are hearing rumors
that they might begin repair work
on their building before many weeks
In this undertaking we wish for
them the finest success possible, and
shall stand by with our facilities
and services to help in any manner
possible.
Here and now we want to thank
these people who took part in the
play presented at the school house
last Friday night. It was under the
auspices of the L. L. L. Class ana
directed by Mrs. Fred Davis, Mrs.
Jno. Warren and other members of
the class who were so ably assisted
by Mrs Galley Summers. A capacity
house saw and enjoyed the presen
tation, and the receipts netted S175 50
to the building fund. Much of the
financial success of the play was due
to the fine response of the business
men of Conyers and Covington who
responded so readily with ads.
Services next Sunday will be held
in the school auditorium with Bible
School opening at 10.30 followed bv
preaching by the pastor at 11:30.

New Books: Pay For
Teachers To Wait
Governor E. D. Rivera and the
Store Board of Education plane the
early purchase of *200,000 more
books, for school libraries in the
State. Bids are now being considered
and a decision on the volumes to be
chosen will be announced soon.
In She meantime, uncertainty was
general as to when payday would
arrive for the teachers in the schools,
of the State. Due to the lack of funds
in the State treasury, checks due
on February 28 could not be sent
out, and the 21.000 school teacher?
in the State began to feel the eco
nomic pinch.
