jf the Sunday schools in
Houston county propose to be rep
resented in the State Sunday
school convention they should pre
pare at once to choose iheif£ dele
gates. The association will assem
ble at Rome on the 22d of July,
and continue in session three
days. The association will be
composed as follows, in accord
ance with the constitution: “The
Association shall be composed of
one delegate for every 300 mem
bers of Sunday schools composing
the county Association, and in
couuties where no association ex
ist, two delegates for every repre
sentative to which the county is
entitled in the General Assembly
of the state.” Of'this Sunday
school district Rev. P. H. Grump
ier, of Macon, is President, and
J. T. Waterman, -Forsyth, is Sec
retary.
---We understand that a
delegation from Perry and vicini
ty tvill attend the Fourth of July
■demonstration at Macon next Sat

The fare from Perry has been fix
ed at $1.25 for the round trip,
good for that day only. It would
be advisable for all who can to

at the ticket window that would
otherwise surely result. The train

Last Thursday and Friday were
gala days at Byron, the town be
ing full of people attending the
closing exercises of Byron Acad
emy.
Thursday the greater portion of
the students were examined as to
their proficiency in the studies
they had pursued during the term
We were not on hand that day,
but what we heard, and saw on
Friday convinced us that the pu
pils had not been “crammed” for
the occasion, but gave evidence of
what they had actually learned.
This school daring the term just
closed has been taught by Frof. E,
H. Ezell, principal, Miss Mary
Hodge, assistant, and Miss Laura
Domingos, music teacher. During
the term 87 pupils have been in
attendance, 19 of them boarders.
The examination, speeches, music
and select-recitations by the pu
pils Friday gave evidence of care
ful instruction. The entertain
ment Friday night, consisting of
music, speeches'and charades, by
the pupils, was quite entertaining
to the audience, being well ar
ranged and admirably rendered.
It would be too great a task to give
a detailed report of these exercises,
therefore we refrain from mention
ing any pupil by name, and will
simply say that everybody was
well pleased. There were about
300 people in attendance Friday
and Friday night. Throughout
the day and evening constant evi
dence of the popularity and effi
ciency of Prof. Ezell as an instruct
or was given, and we congratulate
the good people of Byron upon
having secured his services. His
assistants are no less able in their
respective departments.
The next term of the school will
open the latter part of August, or
early in September.
At noon Friday the crowd par
took of a bountiful dinner that had
been arranged upon a long table
under the shade of the trees. Of
choice, palatable food, there was a
great - variety, excellent in quality,
abundant in quantity, splendidly
cooked and most hospitably served.
Besides this, every citizen of the
town and immediate vicinity kept
open house, and the editor is only
one of many who will long remem
ber with plaasure the warm-heart
ed hospitality of the citizens of
Byron and vicinity.
Byron is indeed a pleasant place,
and the people there and therea
bout give evidence of being on the
highway of prosperity. The town
is admirably located, is healthful,
with good society" and excellent
church privileges. About two
years ago a new Methodist church
-was built, and within the past year
Baptist church and the new
academy have been erected, though
theselast, are not yet entirely com
plete, the interior of each being
unfinished.
During the day last Friday ice
cream and lemonade were on
sale for the benefit of the Baptist
church, and we are glad to note
that a very neat sum was realized.
Nearly every male citizen of
Byron is more or less a farmer,
and some of the most successful
practical farmers of the county
live thereabout. By invitation we
visited the farms of Messrs. T. D.
Warren and T. H. Willingham,
near Byron, and we unhesitatingly
say that their crops are the best
we have seen this season. Mr.
Willingham has 75 acres of cotton
that will average at least two feet
high, filled with forms and blooms.
We do not believe it can be sur
passed in Houston county. Mr.
Warren’s entire crop is immensely
above the average in the comity.
These two gentlemenhave splen
did corn crops, and we do not
think we exaggerate when we say
the prospect is good for them to
make 20-bushels per acre on the
entire acreage of their - farms.
Each has about 50 acres that will
make at least 30 bushels per acre,
barring a July drougth.
1 There are Other good crops near
Byron, but the limited time at our
disposal would not admit of an in
spection all around.
Our visit was replete with pleas
ure throughout, and it. will not re
quire much coaxing to indu-ceus to
go there again.
- May. the good people of - Byron
livelong, and enjoy the fullest
measure of prosperity. '

anybody who ever came to Hen

there were at least a dozen ladies
who had some special dainty fixed

and I fear they will not go to
much trouble again, unless you
make a powerful good excuse for
failing to come this time.

well as it was possible to do.
This is long enough for this

The Presbyterian Festival.
Last Friday afternoon and even
ing the ladies of the Perry Pres
byterian church held a festival for
the purpose of purchasing a new
organ for their church. They
were generously assisted by ladies
of the Baptist and Methodist
churches. It was impossible for
even a citizen of Perry to say for
what particular church the festival
was held, without being told, as
the ladies of the different churches
took so much interest in selling
and serving cream, etc.
The basement of tbe Methodist
church, where the festival was
held, was decorated with cedar,
juniper, and “Oscar Wilde*’ flow
ers, which gave it a very attractive
appearance. The ice cream, pine
apple sherbet, and cake, were
splendid, and the lemonade was
cold and plentiful and temptingly
served.
Could any but the blind refuse
to buy the beautiful little nose
gays sold by the bewitching little
Miss Lila Duncan? Every one
seemed to be in excellent spirits,
the enjoyment was great, and the
net proceeds satisfactory to the
managers. One young gentleman
seemed determined to “make hay
while the moon” was shining. If
this young man succeeds, the
Wesleyan Female College may lose
one of its charming students.
