What In Going On In Ohllou'h Thriv
ing Suburb.
Rev. Clayton Quillian has removed
here and was “Pounded” last week by
his people. The people here are glad
to welcome him and his estimable
lady.
Rev. W. T. Dale, of Dalton, filled
his appointment at the C. P. Church
on last Sabbath, p’reaching in the
morning, but returning in the evening
to his meeting in Dalton.
From “time immemorial” it has
been the custom of the C. P. Church
to celebrate the organization of the
church by holding an anniversary
service on some Sabbath in February,
having been organized February
4th, ISIO. On this occasion Rev. Mr.
Dale gave a short sketch of the great
revival of 1800, together with the
causes which led to the organization
of the church. He a|so gave a con
cise statement of the doctrines of the
church. He expressed profound grati
tude to God that much of the bitter
ness that once actuated many people
and churches had given place to
brotherly love; and while we differ in
many minor details, yet in all the es
sentials of religion there is a Wonder
ful unanimity of feeling and senti
ment, He said his church is a “liberal
church.” Many thought too liberal
for its good as a church, but the speak
er said he would rather be charged
with being too liberal than not liberal
enough.
Our school is flourishing under
Prof. Irvine. There are new houses
going up, which is a mark of the
thrift and prosperity of our town.

l'he services are well attended, and
members of other churches are taking

and no deviation made from prices marked. The terms of all sales

Ruin to Our Farmers.

The Alliance vs. Crown Cotton
Mills.
. The supreme court rendered a de
cision last week in favor of the Crown W
Cotton Mills, of Dalton, in a case
where the Alliance had sued these
mills for damage. It seems that the
alliance made a contract with these
mills to furnish 12 ounce cotton bag
ging of a certain width and when the
boycott on jute bagging was busted
the said alliance flew up on their con
tract for a frivolous cause. It seems
that the weight and width of the cot
ton bagging varied from one ounce to
one-fourth of an inch, but the mill
men embodied in their contract a
clause to provide for the unavoidable
variation of the looms and this clause
knocked the suit silly.—Jimplecute.
