The writer met with the church at Pleasant Hill last Sunday, but owing to the inclement weather the attend ance was small. Miss Hubbard, of Newnan, has been chosen principal of the school at Farm- dale, and we bespeak for her a liberal patronage, as there are a number of children of school age in that communi ty. Many people have changed homes since winter opened. This unrest seems to prevail throughout the coun try, and is confined to no particular class or section. From some cause or other there is a destitution of supplies among many families, and they will be forced to live mainly on credit the present year. While upon this subject will it he re garded as an impertinence or as out of j place for us to make a suggestion? Those who sell supplies on time could make the burden of debt lighter upon these poor people by charging a more reasonable profit upon the few necessi ties that they are compelled to have to make a crop. For example, corn is now selling at 75c. cash, but the time price (for a few months’ time) is $1.25 per bushel. This is more than the poor far mer can pay and come out even at the efcd of the year. Be merciful to the poor, and the Lord will bless you. Misses Nora and Julia Page have re turned from a visit to friends at Griffin and Woolsey.
