Intereeting Meeting At
Helen June 2.
The pubUc is cordially invited to
meet at Heleu, Georgia, on June 2,
1923, for the purpose of discussing
the advisability of perfecting a
pennant organization to be known
as the Helen-Hiwassee-Haysville
Highway association and to devise
a way and meansj for promoting
highway construction between the
towns of Haysville, N. C., Htaw
assee and and Helen, Georgia, and
making desirable connections with
same to the State Highway system
of Georgia and North Carolina,
and also with a view of getting
said road placed on the Georgia
State Highway Map at the earliest
possible time.
Believeing that a good road
on a permanent grade across the
Blue Ridge mountain divided at
Unicoi Gap, would thus promote
the best interests of Georgia and
adjoining States, and that the
people of Clay county, N. C., Ra¬
bun, Towns, Union, White and
Habersham counties, Ga., have a
vital interest in this proposed good
road and we trust that everybody
who is interested will Cotne to
Helen Georgia June 2, 1923.

we had intended to hold beginning
next Monday night will again be
of. We have talked with
the cabinet, or rather some of them
and it 6eemes to be (he opinion
that by next month all the outside
work of the church will be finished,
steps and all, the weather in all
probability be more settled and
therefore it is more advisable in
every way to have the meeting in
June rather than in May. So the
meeting will be held beginning*!he
3rd Sunday night in June instead
of May. We hope by that time to
have a real sure enough preacher
with us and we hope and pray that
the way will be^clear for a real
good meeting.

Joseph for taking them down into
Egypt.
We are also glad to know that
our brotherin of the other church
are going to hold a weekly prayer
meeting every Thursday night,

was planned, arranged and carried

more zelous, because the off' season
will soon be upon us.
