RESOLUTIONS
Adopted by the Presbyterian Church
on Resignation of Dr.
Jas. Stacy.
In the dispensation of His provi
dence our Heavenly Father has made
it necessary for the labors of our
well-tried and beloved pastor, Dr.
Jas. Stacy, to terminate. The infirm -
behind this cloud stretches a silver
lining, for, while our official relation
ship of pastor and church is to termi
nate, we earnestly pray that Ood will
spare for many years the life of dur
beloved pastor, that he may continue
to move among ns shedding the grace
and love which his presence inspires,
that he may continue our counselor,
that he may continue to minister to
our spiritual needs and cultivate our
affections, and, too, it is a part of our
Christian hope and belief that beyond
this vale of tears we shall be permit
ted to enjoy with our pastor the fru
ition of these years of joint labors.
Therefore, in accepting the resig
nation of Dr. Stacy as pastor of this
church, be it resolved;
1. That we do so reluctantly and
with giief.
2. That we assure Dr. Stacy of our
hichest appreciaiion of his long and i
efficient service. "
3. That we crave his spiritual ad- |
vice, visits, and ministrations during
bis life.
4. That we now invite him to a seat
in the Session of the church, with the
privileges of speech during his life.
5. That we invoke the divine bless
ings of restored health and many
years of happiness and Christian ex
perience upon him and his devoted
and saintly wife.
6. That these resolutions be spread
upon the minutes of the church re
cords, also a copy be sent to our be
loved pastor and one to the press for
publication. W. P. Nimmons,

DR. JAS STACY,
Whose Resignation as Pastor of the Presbyterian Church Was Accepted on
Sunday Last, After 40 Years Active Service.
ities of ripening age,- together witli
his many duties as author, pr< gbyte-
rial and synodical clerk, and trustee
of one of our colleges, have brought
upon him evideuces ot impaired
health, and the only rational course
left him demands rest and relief from
exacting official duties.
The years of almost a half century
look down npon his pastorate of this
church, and this remarkable period of
service is strong evidence of his ef
ficiency and faithfulness as her spir
itual counselor. The harmony,
growth, and sweet fellowship, which
have constantly and uninterruptedly
reigned in the church during this long
lapse of time, add strength to this
testimony. But the fact that Dr.
Stacy has won and held the respect
and admiration of the entire citizen
ship of Newnan, gained and retained
the perfect confidence of the Chris
tian ministry and cbnrch membership
of the community, and so endeared
himself to the people of his home that
mothers, fathers, and children all join
in ardent love for him, marks him as
a Christian gentleman of highest char
acter and rarest merit and strength.
Daring this long lapse of years, Dr.
Stacy has beautifully, cheerfully and
efficiently ministered to bis flock. In
our homes he has been a wise and
cheerful counselor; aronnd the mar-j
riage altar he has mingled with ours
his joy and prayers; at the chancel he
has administered the sacred ordinance
of baptism to our children; and in the
dark hours of gloom be has held the
hands of our loved ones while their
souls were passing through the “val
ley and shadow” into the celestial city.
When the flood of these memories
surges upon us, it ia not strange that
we bow our beads in sadness while
our hearts swell with angaish. Yet
The price of cotton has declined
one and one-half cents per pound
during the past fifteen days. During
the past week the decline has been
about one half of a cent per pound.
Reports from Texas and Mississippi
indicate that the farmers of these
States are marketing their cotton
freely at the reduced prices. In con
sequence the receipts are very large 1
each day compared with last year.
East of the Mississippi river a large
percentage of the fai-mt...-. are bolding
their cotton for better prices. Re
ports from European cotton mills and
also from the mills in this conntry in
dicate that they have small stocks on
hand and are only buying to supply
present needs. A large number of
mills are idle in both countries, await
ing developments. If the cotton far
mers would hold their cotton instead
of placing the entire crop on the mar
ket during October, November and
December, the great declines in price
during these months in spot cotton,
would undoubtedly be averted.

A Talk With the People |
On a very important and interesting matter, fk
Where do’you do your cash trading? With 1%
the man who sold you on credit? Well, If you P&
do, you make a sad mistake. ‘‘Why,’’ you Sk
say. “ought 1 not to spend my cash with the
fellow who has sold me on credit?" Why, cer
tainly not! You are under no obligation to do
so;—he has made- enough out of the credit
business to pay him for his presumed kind
ness in waiting on you. Then it is not to your \
interest to do your cash trading with a man
who buys and sells on time; because he can’t
buy goods on time and sell them as close as a
man who pays cash and gets cash for his goods.
• Then if he offers you the rock bottom cash
price it makes his credit price look too big.
and this he is too sharp to do: so you must
then pay him too much for them. Trade with
a man who buys the best cash bargains and
lets you have them at the same reduction.
1 keep everything in Dry Goods, Groceries,
Shoes, Hats, Notions, Hardware and General
Supplies.
Come to see me. 1 will save you money.
