CONYERS, GA., SATURDAY, OCT. 19 1895. The Fruit Groweis’ tion will meet in Atlanta oa the 12th of Novombel , We arehe quested to state to the fruit growers and any who feel an interest in the subject in Rock dale, that they are specially in¬ vited to attend. The convention wants your experience and ad¬ vice as to the best methods of handling and shipping fruits. Dr. W. H. Lee is an old citi zea of Conyers and has been in the drug business for thirty or 0I ^Y years. He is well estate fished in the business—he is fix ed, all( l this means that he is immovable. He has the trade of the people in his line and his patrons will still visit his store for their drugs and other articles usually kept by a first class drug store. Prof. Harris, of Emory college, preached in the Methodist church last Sunday morning and night. The two sermons were g jod; the one at night especial¬ ly so. The subject at night was, “The soul that siuneth. it shall die.” We cannot enter into an analysis of the discourse, but will say that the arguments and original manner in which the subject was handled showed study and thought, embellished in beautiful, chaste language, which made the sermon from beginning to end eloquent, for it is not oratorical display that makes eloquence, but the thoughts of a discourse well ex¬ pressed. The conclusion was appropriate, showing that God has not seen fit to interfere with any of His fixed laws except in the single case of man, where He interposes His son for the sal¬ vation of men.
