•I-H-I"!"! I"I-H-H-H
Clothes are a very important factor in our
every day lives and every man, woman and child
should see to it that his or her personal appear
ance be enhanced as much as possible.
Good clothes is a passport to the inner circle of
Biss and society.
le man or woman who is poorly dressed is
handicapped, and so long as we hold mate
rial prosperity in honor and esteem then so long
shall we continue to admire the outward sign.
Every person knows that the outward sign is
dress. The mind is obvious. Dress well. To do
this it is always better to go to the store where
the best goods are kept.

Meeting at Menlo Baptist Church.
Our meeting at Menlo was beyond
the expectations of many, both as to
interest and result. The crowds were
large and the interest good almost
from the very start. And although
we only held a week, we received 18
by baptism and I understand there
are others to follow. There were
four added by letter. The church
was greatly revived and unified.
The outlook for the work at Menlo
is encouraging. Last but not least
was the kindly remembrance of the
pastor by the Woman’s Missionary
Society. When I went into my room
to retire for the night after the meet
ing had closed, my eyes fell on an
envelope lying by my lamp addressed
to me with the words: ‘“A token of
appreciation from the W. M. S. of
Menlo.” On closer examination I
found within ten dollars. May God
bless the good women. How could
we get along without them? They
were responsible for the gift made
me at Lyerly.

What is Work-Day for the Orphans?
“Why don’t you ask every one to
give the orphans of Georgia one day’s
work each year?” asked a business
man of an agent of an Orphan’s
Home.
This happy suggestion has been
taken up by Orphans’ Homes in sev
en states of the South, outside of
Georgia in which alone seven or eight
homes united last year.
People acknowledge the justice of
the plea—" One day’s work out of
365 for God's little ones.” Armies of
cotton pickers, bands of women sew
ing for the orphans, storekeepers giv
ing their profits, professional men,
railroad men, clerks and every class
of people have joined the working
ranks witli joy.
“‘No child must suffer,” is their
song as they search for suffering
orphans all over Georgia. “No child
must suffer” must be the song of
hundreds of thousands of busy men
and women and children as they-put
in their most earnest labor on Satur
day, Sept. 23th, the annual Work Day
for Ga. orphans.
