Week of Prayer.
Six years ago ihe week of prayer
and ,-eif denial was inaugurated by
request of the home board of the
Southern Baptist Convention and
(he lime has come again for ihe an
nual observance, beginning March
17th and continuing through the
week The women in the Baptist
church are earnestly urged to give
themselves to prayer and self deni
al durian this season, striving to
learn something of the spirit of
sacrifice that characterized the life
of our Saviour. When we exam
ine ourseives thoughtfully, we oft
en realize how little we possess of
this spirit in comparison with what
Jesus Christ had who voluntarily
-uffered cruel deathgupon the cross
for our sakes. When we realize
what has been accomplished by
prayer and giving we ought to b j
constrained to pray with all the
earnestness of fiur souks and be iviil-
ing to give of that which costs us
something, for the work of the
?vl aster.
Every woman in the town is in
vited to attend the prayer meet
ings every afternoon and every
woman of the Baptist church is
requested to be present at every
meeting. Lulu L. Wilson,
President W.M.S. Baptist Church.
The following are places of meet
ing and leaders.
Sunday at 2:30 o’clock at Mrs. C.
T Milner’s; Mrs. Charles- Hurst,

Prof Close Goes to Savannah.
! Having been elected by the unan-'
j imous vote df the Board of F.duea- j
i tion to succeed Prof. B. F. Glenn, j
■ as principal -Of Anderson school of
[ that city. He leaves us Sunday
i night for the scene of his future la-
I bors and will take charge Monday
! morning next.
The very complimentary man
| ner in which he was elected to this
i new place as educator adds to the
| honors already acquired by our dis-
i tinguished principal, and while we
j congratula'e him we regret very
i much the loss that our school and
| community will suffer by it. Prof.
! Close came here and took charge ot
I
the Waynesboro Academy five or
j six years ago and practically built
I up the academy by his persistent
efforts. In ihe matter of education
he has done a great deal for this
community, not to speak of the
great moral influence he has exert
ed and his excellent citizenship
with our people. We can ill afford
to love Prof. Close tho his individu
al interests invites us to give to
him the compliments and honors
h v attains by a transfer to a larger
field for his talents as a public
teacher
Mrs Close will go to Savannah
with Prof. Close of course, but not
immediately.
In this new field we wish for him
every success and assume him he
will be always kindly remembered
by the whole community.
Thursday evening the trustees of
this Academy met and elected Mr,
McNair and wife, of Columbus, Ga ,
lo fill two places made vacant by
the withdrawal of Prof. Close and
wife. Prof. McNair is himself a dis
tinguished educator and comes well
recommended from the schools of
.Columbus.
