Civil Service Commission has announced an examination for the county of Coweta, to be held at New nan on June 12, 1916, to fill the position of rural carrier at Newnan, and for vacancies that may later occur on rurul routes from other post- offices in Coweta county. The exam ination will be open only to male citi zens who are actually domiciled in the territory of a postoffice in the county, and who meet the other requirements set forth in Form No. 1977. This form and application blanks may be obtained from the postmaster at Newnan, or from the IJ. S. Civil Service Com mission at Washington, D. C. Appli cations should be forwarded to the Commission at Washington at the earliest date practicable. County School Superintendent Pen- dergrast authorizes The Herald to state that on Saturday, loth inst., all teachers of the county will be paid their salaries for February and March. The county has a balance of $10,356.67 belonging to the school fund now to its credit in the State Treasury, brought over from last year, and Superintend ent, Pendergrast has been trying to get it out, but without success—due, it is said, to insufficient funds in the Treas ury. However, at a meeting of the County Board of Education on Tuesday last it was decided to borrow enough money to pay the teachers for the two months named, in case the State Treasury should not be in condition by that time to honor the county’s draft for the sum needed. Incidentally, it is worthy of note that the teachers of Coweta never have to wait longer than a couple of months for their salaries, and not often so long as that. The Junior Reading Circle will hold a fair and society vaudeville at the Elks’ hall next Friday afternoon and evening, for the benefit of the County Club. The fair will consist of a midway, with all the usual attractions, such as ‘ The Chamber of Horrors,” “A Trip to Mars,” ‘‘A Picture Gallery,” ‘‘Flower Show,” “Fortune Teller,” etc. There will be also a grocery booth, a novelties booth, a kitchen booth, and a Chinese booth. Ice cream, candy, tea and sand wiches will be sold. The society vaude ville (in the eveing only) will consist of songs, readings, music, and a short play. Young and old are cordially in vited. All will find plenty to entertain and amuse, besides aiding a worthy cause. Automobile parties from neigh boring towns especially invited. Fair opens promptly at 4 p. m.; vaudeville at 8 p. m. General admission 10c. for adults; 5c. fur children. Everybody come and have a good time. The following business was disposed of at the regular monthly term of the Court of Ordinary on Monday last, to- wit: Twelve months’ support set apart to Mrs. Pauline B. Murphey and her minor children out of the estate of Peter B. Murphey, deceased. J. W. Trammell, administrator on the estate of Mrs. M. E. Trammell, de ceased. granted letters of dismission. L. P.

Figures Tell the Tale For the sake of satisfying some people who have got it into their craniums that Swint is losing out in the grocery busi ness, I wish to submit a statement of my cash receipts for the first four months last year and the first four months this year, which is as follows— 1914 January, $2,428.00 February, 1,940.00 March, - 2,142.00 April, - 2,208.00 1915 January, $2,673.00 February, 2,407.00 March, - 2,453.00 April, - 2,684.00 Newnan Takes Opening Game. (iritlin Now. nnd Sun. The Lightloots dropped the first game of the season to the team from New nan. Guthrie was on the mound for the home team, hut did not have his usual form. Whitney, for Newnan, twirled an excellent game and deserved to win. Newnnn scored in the first inning. Griffin came back in their part of the second. Newnan scored 3 in the fourth nnd 4 in the fifth. The visitors secured ten hits off Guthrie, while the Newnan pitcher held the Lightfoots to only five. The park was packed and jammed, there being about 3,000 people in the field. The stands could not accommo date the immense crowd, and as a re sult the spectators were all over the field. It was one of the biggest days in Griffin’s history, showing that Griffin and surrounding territory are imbued through nnd through with the spirit of the great national sport. The big crowd present seems to war rant the fact that Griffin hns won the attendance trophy, a beautiful cup of fered by President C. L. Bruner, of the Georgia-Alnbamu league. Young People’s Forward Movement The regular meeting of the Young People’s Forward Movement of the First Methodist church was held last Friday evening, at the residence of Mr. M. B. Mooney. Mrs. Mooney is ever ready to encourage aspiring youth by throwing open her hospitable home for their entertainment. Bursting buds and radiant red roses, used in artistic arrangement for decoration, were not more beautiful than the bright young people gathered together for mental and spiritual uplift. The meeting was called to order by Mr. Win. Askew, the enthusiastic young president. By a singular coinci dence three of the lady leaders of this society were delegates recently returned from the convention of Sunday-school teachers at Americus. One of these, Mrs. T. E. Atkinson, was called on to tell of the occasion. The talk was up- usually interesting and inspiring, being listened to with rapt attention by ev eryone present. The message was sug gested by an enlarged cartoon brought from the convention picturing two rab bits silting at ease, and two others run ning at full speed, with the motto: “Do not sit up and sit, but get up nnd git,” reminding one of the necessity of activity if any progress is ever made. Transformed into words of Holy Writ it means, “Be ye doers of the Word, and not hearers only.” The social hour was turned over to Mrs. Mooney, who led the troop out on the lawn, where long tables filled with plutes of candy, whose appetizing odor had already reached the regions beyond, were soon changed into silvery sweet ness “long drawn out,” amid happy laughter and innocent mirth of boys and girls in their teens.
