SUCCESSFUL REVIVAL *
Bein* Conducted in Birinin*tiam by
I>cm. BloNNer and Culpepper.
Dr. Blosser writes from Birming
ham that he and Mr. Culpepper are
meeting with wonderful success in
conducting their revival at Birming
ham. The large tabernacle in that
city, which seats from 4,000 to 5,000
people, is taxed to its utmost capacity
to accommodate the large crowds that
attend both morning and evening
services.
Anniversary Service.
Rev. W. T. Dale, who has been con
fined to his bed for more than a week,
wishes us to say that be is so far recov
ered that he feels that he will be able to
fill his appointment here on tomorrow.
The occasion will be the 83rd anniversary
of the Cumberland Presbyterian church
as a separate denomination.
The Aniversary Song will be a special
feature of the occasion. Last year the
anniversary sermon was on the line of
the “Historical and Doctrinal.” This
time it will be on the line of the “Practi
cal.”
It is recommended that the church at
large observe the following week as a
week of praver and self-denial, in behalf
of Home Missions.
It is requested that all the members of
the Ladies Aid Society be present on to
morrow, and further that all members of
the church be present.
The public generally is al ways welcome
at this church; come one, come all. The
invitation is made as broad as the Gospel
invitation itself.
Notes by the Wayside.
By a North Dalton Parson.
—The meetings at Hamilton street
church are well attended, and a great in
terest manifested both on the part of the
church, and the unconverted. Method
ists, Baptists and Presbyterians, are all
doing what they can, working together
to get souls saved. The meeting prom
ises to be one of great power.
- Rev. Clayton Quillian is helping the
pastor in the revival meeting at Hamil
ton street, and his sermons are all good.
Ik> is a very earnest Christian worker.
—Preaching at Hamilton street Sunday
at 11 a. m. by Rev. G. J. Orr, and at
night by the pastor.
—North Dalton is greatly in need of a
postoiHce. Some good man is going to
take steps to get one, we are told.
—M. I). Smith will preach at Five
Springs today and tomorrow’.
—The editor of The Argus palmed off
his old fighting rooster on a certain
preacher in town, and now to pass by
that parsonage you would be amused; it
looks like a regular cock-pit. There is
no telling what some people will do.
Wanted—A Salesman.
We want a good salesman to run a
wagon and sell our sewing machines for
a Dalton firm. Salary or commission, or
both paid to the right man.
A man entirely new’ to the business

A practical education is more valuable
than any other accomplishment, as it
qualifies one for many positions. It is a
stepping stone that leads to higher places.
It is the gateway to advancement ami in
dependence.
A bookeeper and stenographer, who
is a good penman and understands the
elements of the English language and
the practical part of luatematies, • would
be safer from poverty than a great Greek
scholar.

Did you know that gormally & JEFFERY did not get out a lß;ht wheel UN
til September of 1892? Well, they did not, preferring to stick to the spring frame. But, say!
When they did finally decide to put a light wheel on the market, it ‘‘got there.” Believe it? Out
of .‘l9 events at different points in the United States between September 3 and November 13,1892,
Road and Track, the Nos. 3 and 4 Ramblers came off with 20 firsts, 18 seconds, 11 thirds. Wonder
ful, isn’t it? And, mind you they are road wheels, not racers.

Red Clay, February 2. —Good Mr.
Hicks, the weather prognosticator, has
either failed in his calculations or the
storm to come to us between the 24th
and 31st of December last has kindly
turned in another direction. If the
latter, we are much obliged, as well as
thankful for the present balmy spring
weather.
We note a number of our farmers pre
paring ground for sowing oats and plant-’
ing gardens. It really seems that spring
is about to break forth in all its har
monious melody—that the chime upon
one hill will soon echo that on another,
and all nature eagerly behold the fasci
nating picture and listen to its soothing
lullaby.
We note visits to Red Clay by the
following gentlemen. W. P. Whitten,
Graham Shell, McKenzie Reid, Doc
Bagby, Robt. McCoy, W. P. Brewer and
Major Reeder, representing the J. R.
Hall Tobacco Company of Greenville,
Tenn.
Doctor B. B. Brown is now one of us.
He moved into our town on yesterday.
It is not yet decided as to the date of the
reception.
I learn that T. H. Pittner has disposed
of his Cohutta business to James R.
Huff, and that the business w ill here
after be conducted under the name of
Pitner & Huff, Willie Pitner remaining
in business. If high-toned courtesy and
first class ability will insure success they
will have it. •
W. L. Williams has also opened up a
full stock of goods at Cohutta.
That prince of good fellows, Warren
Norton, expects to enter business here.
