W. H. Norton Chairman. AV. J. Moore secretary, Rev. W. L. Cutts Mas ter of ceremonies. The council was formed of brethren from vis iting churches. On invitation some thirty persons presented themselves as desiring to regularly organize a Missionary Baptist church. The following program was ob served : Song; prayer; song; reading letters and list of members; read ing and adopting church covnant; reading and adopting the deco rum; reading and adopting Arti cles of Faith. Sermon by Rev. W. L. Cutts, subject “Fellow helpers to the Truth.” Charge>o the church by Rev. W. H. Norton, and the Constitution prayer. The right-hand of fellowship was then extended by the council, whereupon they were solemnly declared to be a'regularly consti tuted Missionary Baptist church. The newly organized body elect ed a church clerk, Prof. W. N. Hart, took up a collection for missions and was dismissed with benediction. Quite a number of visiting bretheren were present, and the record this fine community has for taking care of visitors remains unbroken.

There was a good many out to hear him in the morning, but at night the congregation was very slim. Rev. J. T. Mims and family went to Grovania, where Brother Mims filled his regular appoint ment at the Methodist church. Mrs. T. J. Shinholser, Mrs. H. S. Kezar, Miss Lilia May Mims, and Mrs. J. H. Coffee went to Ma con last week shopping. Miss Maggie Marr and Mr. Jack Hodge of Henderson were in the city yesterday shaking hands with friends. Mr. T. J. Shinholser has return ed home from a trip through the country to Macon. He reports a pleasant trip. The cold weRther has come again and the farmers are uneasy, afraid they will have to plant their cotton the second time for this year. Mr. Butler Hardison and Cole man Hodge of Henderson passed through our town last week on a cow hunt. Mr. J. L. Eubanks of Hender son, was here Saturday on busi ness. The finest grain we have seen yet was cut and brought to town by Mr. H. J. Brown, it was fully two feet in height after it was cut. Hurrah! for him, he is a good farmer any how. Mrs. Winn and Mrs. F. A. Poole of Savannah, are in the city visit ing relatives. Our fishing club went fishing last Thursday and it seemed that they fell in the pond and scared all the fish away. It rained, was the trouble. Mrs. J. H. Clark spent one night out in the country last week with Mrs. J. H. Grace. Mr. C. E. Eubanks has swapped his fine horse for two mules and while he was in the lot feeding them not long ago he happened to a misfortune and let one of the mules kick him. He soon got over it, but he didn’t want to get in ’ 'eking distance of any more mules. What is the trouble with Socks?” we don’t hear anything from him these days. Cheer up! don’t let this little cold snap scare you and come again ; we are glad to hear from you. 4-22-1901. <*«-<» “WANTED—75 men and boys to work at the Crate Factory in Fort Valley, Ga.” say the season is a month behind^ We have not been fortunate out here in securing a stand of corn,- some planting 'the second time. We are expecting the same of cot ton, in consequence of which there will be a deficit in the supply of seed. Our people are handling a large supply of fertilizers this year, but I don’t think the acreage in cot ton will be increased. The grain crop is promising just now, but the recent fall in temperature caused some of the owners of brag pacches of wheat to be uneasy,-such as Rome San- derfer and Jim Carney. A number of our people heard the Rev. Dix at the Houston Fac tory Baptist church, last Sunday afternoon. Mrs. Beulah Andrews, of Rober ta is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. O. Sanderfur and family. Our school is progressing nicely and making a splendid average since the small-pox scare has gone to the winds. Two new scholars to-day It is generally conceded that “Hello” would sound well in an office at Heard. Who will pull the wire? Miss Maggie Howard, who has been visiting her brother and fam ily, returned home last Sunday. If new top buggies is a sign(?) of prosperity, our community is certainly full of it. An old open buggy is a curiosity now. Surely, this is a day of fads. Messrs. Edgar and Lewis Murray, of Hollinshead, were around about here last Sunday afternoon, but I think the cold winds drove the poor things to roost before they got their supper. We notice a bill has been intro duced in the Florida legislature to tax bachelors of over forty $100. All the ladies say' this is a good plan; suppose we try it in Hous ton and increase our school fund? There is a splendid location here for a physician. Will come again when the weather moderates.
