U. of the Western Associa tion was held with the church at Elim on Oct. 13 and 14. The societies were well represented, and the meetings from the first were characterized by enthusiasm as the workers gathered to make their annual report. A beautiful hospitaliti’-a delicious hot breakfast- was extended by Mrs. R. D. Cole, of Newnan, to the messengers passing through Newnan at an early hour on Wednesday and Thursday mornings. The grove surrounding the church and school building at Elim made good its reputation for hospitality. Dinner wa3 served in the grove each day during the association—good, wholesome and abundant dinners. So much for our physical welcome. The spiritual wel come was good as well; but we will not be satisfied until every woman, not only of Elim, but our entire associa tion, comes forward and takes her part of the Lord’s work with her sisters. Come!—we need you, each and every one. The work reported by the twenty- seven societies tells of a great in crease put forth by the women of the Western Association for the Master’s cause. Why not have a W. M. S. -a real, live, working W. M. S.—in each of the fifty churches? Women, this is a question for each of us—those who are working and those who are not working. Will you help? v There was a stirring moment on Wednesday when, right after the splen did address by our State President, Mrs. Willingham, the superintendent pleaded for renewed zeal and devotion, and every woman present stood, thus pledging her best to God for another year. We are pleading with each Bap tist woman in the Western Association to give her best to God another year. The superintendent, Mrs. Roy Cole, has by love and very hard work led our women to fields of broader service. She was ably assisted for two months by our consecrated, self-sacrificing as- sociational organizer, Mrs. O. L. Jones, who did very tine work in strengthen ing old socieites and organizing new ones. On Thursday morning our hearts were stirred by the presence of twenty- five college girls, who came in a body, with teachers, from the Southern Fe male College at LGarange. As we looked on these young women we be held great possibilities for service, if only their young lives are surrendered to God.

Carrollton, Ga., Oct. 20.— One of the most sensational trials ever witnessed in this county came to a close this after noon when the jury returned a verdict of guilty of manslaughter against Guy Veal, who was charged with the murder of Ex Hayes on Aug. 8. There were no eye-witnesses to the tragedy. It appeared from the evidence that the defendant and the deceased visited a camp-meeting about 12 miles from the defendant’s home on the day of the killing. The deceased carried with him thirty pints of whiskey. The de fendant pleaded self-defense, and in his statement admitted the killing, but claimed he did it to save his own life. A pistol was found on the person of the deceased. The deceased was 28 years of age, and the defendant only 19. The case was given to the jury yesterday at noon, and they were unable to agree until late yesterday afternoon. The State was represented by Solici tor-General J. R. Terrell and W. D. Hamrick. The defendant was repre sented by S. Holderness, C. E. Roop and Reuben Arnold, of Atlanta.
