The Southern Bell Telephone
Company has discontinued all
night toll rates and hereafter day
rates will be charged on all long
distance messages, passing over
the lines of this company. The
change went into effect Septem
ber Ist. The company announ
ces that the reason the night
rates are discontinued is because
of the large number of long dis
tance calls lost and delayed in
the evening hours, due to the
congestion of traffic when the
night rates take effect, resulting
in serious and general complaint
in regard to service during the
early evening hours.
WANTED—Men to chop wood,
for coaling on the Menlo Fruit
Co. land, between Menlo anl Ly
erly, Will pay 50 cents per cord

The Tent Meeting at Lyerly.
Sunday, the Ist day of Sep
tember, 1907 was certainly a
great day at Lyerly. Rev. E. M.
Stanton and P. E. Coleman had
been in a tent meeting for ten
days and on Sunday I think
there were fully 1000 people
present. Rev. Stanton preach
ed at 11 o’clock from the text,
Deut. 6th —Loving God with all
the heart, etc.
The singing led by P. E. Cole
man of Atlanta, was sweet and
appropriate and many were
melted to tears and Christians
rejoiced and , penitents wept,
and I think the angels rejoiced
over the prodigals returning to
the*r Father’s house. Eleven
were baptized Sunday night
and several were received by
letter into the M. E. church.
I think Christians were estab
lished in the faith.
Bro. Stanton and his sweet
singer, P. E. Coleman, left Mon
day for Griffin, Ga.
May God be with them to the
end.
S. W. McWhorter.
