I neral today of Captain Warren P.
' Moseley, who was the oldest member of

picturesque figures of the city is laid to

I Committee Has Hard Task in
Naming ‘Two Prettiest and
Brightest’’ Young Women.
To oe designated “the two prettiest ■
and brightest" girls in a Sunday school i
in w hich are scores of pretty and bright
girls is an honor calculated to bring a
great big. broad smile to the faces of
most any two girls. Such a distinction
Is borne proudly today by two members
of the Woodward Avenue Baptist Sun
day school-—Miss Tra. Jarrell and Miss
Edna Still—who also are members of
the Girls High school.
Misses Jarrell and Still are chosen
by a committee of eight men of the
Sunday school, known as “the myste
rious committee.” for the reason that
their names have not been made public.
When it was determined a few days
ago to raise a special fund In the school
the movers agreed on a pleasant sur
prise for the donors —blue ribbons of
honor would be pinned on each by the
two prettiest and brightest girls In the
Sunday school. Then came the problem
of chobsing the two girls, and this task
■ finally was left to a secret committee of
eight men.
Committeemen willing to serve were
not easily found, but, after many ex
cuses had been heard, the eight men
, finally were corralled and sent out "to
do their duty.”
It was no easy job by any means, but,
after a thorough canvass of the school
and a careful scrutiny of the many
pretty girls, the committee reached a
verdict.
Miss Jarrell and Miss Still then were
notified that they had been ciiosen.
Sunday morning the two smiling girls
were called to the platform by Super
intendent C. H. Bolton, of the Sunday
I school, and took their stand beside a
I table* bearing a great heap of blue rib
bon bows. As each donor then came
forward with a contribution, the two
girls pinned on a bow. And that they
came fast is attested by the sqrt that
100 persons left the building wearing
bows.
Miss Jarrell is a daughter of Mrs.
Mittie E. Jarrell and lives at 539 Wood
ward avenue. Miss Still, who is a I
daughter of Luther H. Still, lives at 628 !
I Woodward avenue.

GEORGIA & FLORIDA
ROAD MAY PURCHASE
SOUTH GEORGIA LINE
CORDELE, GA., Dec. 18.—Reports
that have become current in railroad
circles over the state that the Georgia
and Florida railway’ had purchased the
Georgia Southwestern and Gulf line,
were denied by officials of the latter
road in Cordele today.
It is believed that the rumor origi
nated over the fact that the G. & F.
has held an option for some time for
the purchase of tlie South Georgia and
West Coast railway, running 77 miles
from Adel. Ga., to Hampton Spring-,
Fla.
Though it is reported that this option
expired on last Monday, it is stated in
a communication from Adel today that
the G. si s s tin figuring witli J. W.
Olds, of Quitman, who is at the head of
the South Georgia and West Coast,
with the view of taking over this line.
A branch line of the G. F. connects
with the other road at Adel.
