AA'e wish him a pleasant trip. Engines pulling the fast mail and ex press trains on the Atlanta and AVest | Point Railroad and AVestern Railway of Alabama are provided with steam bell ringers. The bell is connected with the engine by a rod, and the en gineer pulls a handle, which sets the bell to ringing, and it does not stop un til the lever is stopped. The attach ment has been on these engines for some time, and it is said, and doubtless is true, that this is the only line in the South using this novel contrivance. The attachment is for the benefit of engineers who run trains through and across streets and cities,- and is put on the engines on this line at a cost of $25 to each engine. The attachment is pat- tented, and has been in use in this coun try about three years. A few days since Mrs. H. C.

The foundation walls of the new public school building were completed last week, and the Board of Education decided to commemorate the event in a manner befitting an occasion of so much importance to the town and community 7 —i. e., by laying the corner stone. Notice of such an intention was conveyed in proper form to the Mason ic officials here, whereupon a special dispensation was obtained from Grand Master Davidson, allowing the frater nity 7 to participate in the ceremonies and render such assistance as the ancient rules of the order permitted. Thursday afternoon, 6th inst., was accordingly ap pointed as the most appropriate time for the ceremony 7 , and the large num ber of people in attendance fully 7 attes- ed the interest which the occasion had evoked. The order of the procession was as follows: 1. Odd Fellows. 2. Masons. 3. Board of Education. 4. City Officials. 5. Citizens generally 7 . The procession arrived at the grounds about 3:30 p. si., when the exercises were formally opened with prayer by Dr. J. M.

Let us who have toi- lowed them prove ourselves worthy tne precious heritage they left us—be as prudent in life and build as wisely aaici as surely. , • The property on which this building is now oeing erected was secured with out cost to the then town of Newnan, bv those same fathers, for educational purposes. This same devotion to the cause of education which manifested itself so earlv in the noble hearts of our fathers, thank God, was transmitted to those who came after, and to day we can assemble on the very spot wliich first marked the progressive ca reer of Newnan and lay the founda- t on in what may be properly termed a monument to past memories, as well as a living, standing testimonial to the wise and progressive spirit of the pres ent. Following in the lootsteps of those who so early manifested such a pro found interest in the cause of educa tion, then are we not justified in aiding every 7 bright-eyed boy and fair-haired girl, whether in poverty or in wealth, in our midst, to obtain an education and thus become more useful as citizens, and sweeter as the guardian angels of our hearts and hearthstones? Then the magnificent building which is about to be erected here can cast no shadows on the years behind us. It will only 7 inten sify the brilliancy of the past as it shines on present endeavors, while it will ever illumine the years ahead of us. But our worthy sires realized that they should do more than to merely en courage the cause of education. They saw that the two mighty pillars of a people’s strength were Christianity and education. While the one to them was the Boaz in that temple, the other, education, could be the Joachim. AA T ith this in view, three separate lots were donated to as many denominations of Christians on which to build houses of worship, that the religion of Christ might with its benign influences make our people one with glad hearts and happy 7 homes. In this cause, as w r ell as in that of education, under the smiles of God, we trust that their children have buried no talents. In place of three rude structures which were first erected under the bounteous hand of providence, which we should gratefully acknowledge, their children have rear ed three temples to God which -would be an honor to any city in all our broad A (rents Wanted For the fastest Gordon!
