Visiting With the
Presbyterian People
Visiting the Presbyterian church
Sunday night, we found Bill Weber
and his choir of young ladies ren
dering splendid music. Why is it that
men like Jack McCollum, Cliff Miller
and William Alinand, three base sing
ers don’t sit in the choir with those
splendid young lady singers. We en
joyed very much the talk of Pastor
Burney on the difference between a
distinguished man and a distinct man.
The difference is more noticeable in
conversation than in print. The text
for the evening was taken from Mat
thew’s account of tire appointment of
the twelve apostles. He brought out
the thought, “was the Apostles ever
converted” and if so, what evidence is
there of it. On account of Predestina
tion and Foreordination, which we are
supposed to believe, Jesus was not con
cerned about their conversion and the
pastor left the impression that Jesus
was dealing as a man and with men
and did not know the hearts of these
men, and here is where we conflict.
We contend that it was appointed be
forehand in an irreversible decree that
Judas was to betray Jesus for thirty
pieces of silver and that Jesus knew
it all the time and that Judas never
did have Jesus fooled up. Judas seems
to have been the only Democrat on the
apostolic board, as the other eleven
members came from Galilee, up north.
The pastor left the impression that
Judas, being the only southern man
on the board, was very obnoxious from
the beginning and their ostracism forc
ed him to sell out to the highest bid
der. If this was true, why did they
elect him treasurer. We are open to
further argument on the analogy of
“distinguished and distinct, but not on
Judas and Carnes. The pastor left
the impression that the thirty pieces
of silver was approximately twenty
dollars, be that as it may, it was
enough to buy Potter’s Field, a notor
ious burying ground for Judas, while
Carnes’ million pieces of silver bought
a beautiful home and several automo
biles.
We learned that the Presbyterian
church is considering the question of
calling another pastor, for tw T o Sun
days in Conyers and two at Smyrna,
to succeed Mr. Burney, whom we un
derstand is not available. Mr. Burney
has called for liquidation of all out
standing accounts brought over from
last year in an annual report set for
Sunday, March tenth. Also, a call was
issued for an annual enlistment cam
paign to be wound up and submitted
for the new year on that date. The
total budget calls for fifteen hundred
dollars. W. H. Tucker is chairman
of this work and E. 0. Leftwich is
treasurer.

Cotton
We have just received a car load of the famous Mis
sissippi Pi Delta and Pineland, No. 4 Cotton Seed.
This cotton has been grown in Rockdale and adjoin
ing counties for the past two years and has given
perfect satisfaction from a stand point of produc
tion, lint yield and staple. From 1250 to 1300 pounds
of dry seed cotton you can get 500 pounds of lint.
This cotton won for Rockdale county in the state con
test at the state college of agriculture last year, the
first prize for growing the best staple cotton of any
county in the state.
This cotton staples inch to 1 1-16 inch and
9 always brings a higher price than the short
er varieties. Because of its excellent quality
of staple.
We are very anxious that the farmers grow
a good staple cotton in the territory in which
II we buy cotton. This saves us going west to
buy our cotton and thereby enables us to pay
the farmer a higher price for his cotton in
the local market.
I These seed are put up in 100 pound bags and
are worth $5.50 per bag, which is what these
seed actually cost us in car load lots and can
be secured from W. O. Mann, our cotton buy
er, at Conyers, Georgia.
