NEWNAN BRANCH W. C. T. V.
Our last meeting was made more pleas
ant' by the presence of our president,
Mrs. K. J. Barnett, who is able to bo with
us again.' The program was a Btudy of
women of the toible, ns follows: “ Woman,
her .Creation and Transgressiofi, ” Mrs.
S. L. Book:' “Ruth, the Model
Daughter-in-law, ” Mrs. Warren .Melsou i
“Hannah, the RewArdod Mother,”
Mm, ;R, a-.
wonion of the Now Testament we find 1
that Jesus crowned woman with His con
fidence. He preached to one woman
at Jacob’s well, and His sermon wns
far-reaching in its results. ' He told lior
that .Ho was the Christ. He first an
nounced to a woman that Ho was tho
Lord of tho Resurrection. Women fol
lowed Him and ministered unto Him,
being last at the cross and first ot the
tomb. On that Easter morning an an
gel -of God commissioned them to go and
tell His disciples that He was risen from
the dead. The best example of self-
denying liberality, in the biblo is recorded
of woman; t|» best example o# loving'
service is recorded of woman; the
best example of conquering prayer is re-
corded of woman. The gift was- a wid
ow’s mite; tho service war the anointing
of Jesus with a box of precious ointment;
the prayer was a mother's prayer for a
daughter possessed with an evil spirit.
Jesus never let fall such words of royal
commendation as those concerning these
women. Of the poor widow He said,
■* Sho hath cast In more than they all. ’ ’
Of Mary He said, “She hath done what
she could, and wheresoever this gospel
shall be preached in the 'whole world
there shall this also, that this woman
hath done be told for a memorial of
her.” To the Canaanitish mother He
said, “O, woman, great is thy faith I
Be it unto thee, even as thou wilt,”
giving her the keys of earth and heaven
and the liberty to go out and possets “
all.
Mrs. Cliff Loftin read a paper on
The Real Criminal,” touching upon tho
recent terrible tragedies occurring in
different sections of the Union, and
pronounced the arch criminal Alcohol.
Mrs. T. E. Ansloy read an article,
A Sad Picture,” the sentence of a
young man not 21 to life imprisonment
for a drunken murder.
The discussions were animated, as
woman's discussions usually are.. It
waB decided to ubo tlie interest on the
•$100 bequeathed by tlie late T. M.
Thompson to the W. O. T. U. to buy a
medal to be offered in an annual temper
ance essay contest, to bo known as tlie
Thompson Memorial Medal. A bright
woman present said she did not see
how any woman could object to giving
$1 a year for a membership in the W. C.
T. U. If she did not have time to at
tend, her money can represent her in the
cause. A wise statesman says, “If we
allow the prohibition amendment to lie
destroyed it will bring back upon hu
manity a curse greater than war itself.’
Mrs. T. E. Ansley will arrange til
“Sabbath Observance” program for the
May meeting. X. L. 0.
HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Wednesday afternoon, April 27, New-
nan High School played the District A.
and M. School. From beginning to end
tho game abounded in the unexpected.
Ncwnan was leading until the ]q s t half
of the ninth inning, when some weird
fielding by our team permitted the vis
itors to overcome a two-run lead and win
the game. The final score was 7 to 6
in favor of A. & M. However, on Sat
urday afternoon we redeemed ourselves
in a game with Carrollton High, played
at Carrollton,-tho score .beiug J to 2 in
^ 0r „ 0f * 0 ™ aD - afternoon,
illy 6, at J:30, we will play Carrollton
at Lee Park.
If the people of Newman expect ns to
do our best in these intar-schooj events it
is high time that they get behind ns.
In a eol'tnlii town not far awny the whole
'population is enthusiastic over all high
school athletic events. Prizes nre given
winning contestants in tho moots by tho
merchants of tho town; a luncheon Is
served: games are advertised everywhere:
'general Interest Is luuiufestoil i In short,
nil tho people of tho town nre behind that
school. Wlint has Newimn done I Is it
to bo wondered at that wo have not made
a bettor record dining the past year or
so? If Newmm is to have n grent high
school onr citizens must manifest more
interest. Wo now hnvq tho material for
an unusually good toiim—football, base
ball, track, literary. Aro the citizens of
Nownnn to help us muko next year our
most brilliant year in tho intor-school
moots, or is Nownnn to do ns sho has
done • during tho past, two years—take
second or third place, boenuso of lack of
interest? If wo wore winning ovory
game wo would have a good crowd of
town people out to cheer us, bat now they
don’t eomo, Why?
Friday hns been declared ii holiday by

Size is not the only index of capacity
for service. Some of the mosf; efficient
things in the world are insignificant—
needles, for instance.
So don’t judge the service we can
render you by the size of the store. We
sell nearly everything the average per
son wants or needs from a drug store,
and those who buy from us get just as
good merchandise—generally the same
merchandise—as elsewhere, and get it
at reasonable cost.
When you want anything in the drtig
line, except prescriptions, come in, or
’phone us—you will get it right away,
and we’ll both be pleased.
Our telephone is 135—use it!

You have no doubt often wished you
had enough money so that you would
not have to worry about anything, and
could devote all your time to things
which interest you, but did you ever
stop to think what effect it would have
on your taste and disposition? “The
Easy Road” shows just what this situ
ation might bring you to. It’s a fine,
big story, well told, with a strong cast—
a Paramount picture. See this picture;
you’ll like it, and think about it after
ward. The cast includes such stars as
Gladys George, Grace Woodall, Arthur
Carew, Lila Lee, Laura Anson, Viora
Dapiels, and others.

Douglas McLean
Never before has Douglas Fairbanks
been so enthusiastic over the success
and admiration of a picture than he is
over “The Mark of Zorro,” which is
from the story of Johnson McCulley,
“The Curse of Capistrano,” which ran
in the All-Story Magazine. Critics who
haye seen the picture proclaim that
Fairbanks has excelled any of his pre
vious performances, due to some ex
tent to the ingenious story, and the op
portunities offered Doug to make use
of his athletic ability. Picture here for
ONE DAY only, opening at 1 p. m,

“The Easy Road” “Buried Treasure”
Miss Davies, in the role of Pauline
Vandermuellon, daughter of a Wall
street capitalist, is about to marry thp
man of her father’s choice when she is
carried into another world by spirits.
She becomes a Castilian maid of the
sixteenth century, and many of the suc
ceeding scenes take place on pirate
ships. It’s a novel idea, and Cosmopol
itan has made it into one of the most
lavish and beautiful pictures of the
kind ever produced. With its quaint
costumes and brilliant setting this pic
ture, along with dramatic appeal, is
worth your attention, and one that will
be sure to please.
