LUCKY BOY.
i AUSTELL
. Never has an event been enjoyed
jmore than the Hallowe'en party
‘given by the Ladies' Missionary So
ciety of the Methodist Church at
this place on Friday night. When
you entered the hall it seemed you
were in the woods. Trees were
placed around in their autumn foli
age. Even the floor was carpeted
with the falling leaves. It really
was a ‘‘'spooky scene,”-the pumpkin
bhead and Japanese lanterns giving
the place such a grotesque look. The
coffee and sandwich booth was pre
sided over by Misses Bertie Smith
and Sarah Veal, each in bewitching
dress. There was the apple-biting
corner, in care of Misses White and
Winters. Punch was scrved by Miss
Grady Howell. The fsh pond fur
nished a lot of amusement for both
old and voung, while the pinning on
of the pumpkin eye was not so suc
cessful by those who tried it, but
Miss Mary Strickland and Miss Dora
White were kept busy marking up
the “bad shots.” Mrs. James Cure
ton won the grand prize, a strutting
peacock. There were two ways of
learning what the future held for
one. In a corner hidden beneath a
pine two gypsies, Mesdames Shelver
ton and Westermoreland, had a min
iature lake, in which floated tiny
dolls. By fishing one of them out
you discovered your fortune wrap-.
ped around it. No one failed to
learn something, but the corner that
seemed to draw at all times and all
classes was the palm readers’ corner.
Madam Zoecella, from Atlanta, toldi
many that night what the future
held for them. |
The witch of the evening, Miss
Ruth Shelverton, with her stick and
pipe, was moving around among the
crowd, putting charms on many or
“hoodooing’” them. Music was fur
nished by the Austell Brass Band
(colored).
The crowd hated to have to give
way for the morning hours, but
witches and ghosts have to return
to their caves, =0 all bade each other
a fond farewell until Hallowe'en
again.
Mr. Ernest Perkerson attended the
Grand Lodge as a delegate from
Austell.
Mr. W. T. Strickland also went to
the lodge at Macon.
Mrs. Ramsey and children, of Car
roliton, were guests of her sister,
Miss Dora Speer, and her aunt, Mrs.
W. H.' Speer, recently.
Mrs. Roy Shelverton is the guest
of her mother, Mrs. G. H. Woodall.
NMreg. Dr. Morgan has returned after
a month spent with her parents in
Des Moines, lowa DELLA.
MT. ZION.
The opossum and potato supper
was just fine and will be long re
membered. The hunt came in for a
lot of fun to about twenty-five young
people, with AMr., Phagan as sponsor
and Mr, Staten and his faithful dogs
as buntsman. We had some fun
and some luck, too. Some have sug
gested that we try it again.
The Sunday school teachers were
exchanging visits Sunday. Miss Lula
Manning and Miss Pearl Kirk, and
we would just guess that Mr. Brant
ley was acting as sponser.
The Missse Phagan, Mattie and
Ruth, were visiting in our ‘‘burg’”’
Sunday afternoon.

Rica Sunday. $

The death angel quietly invaded
our midst last Thursday morning
and claimed for its victim the gen
tle loving spirit of Aunt Susan
Leavell, wife of Mr, E. E. Leavell.
She had been a great sufferer for
many years, but bore it with pa
tience and fortitude. She had been
a consistent member of the Baptist
Church for forty years and died in
that Christian faith. She leaves two
sisters and one brother, Mrs. W. S.
Williams, Mrs, Green Wigley and
Mr. Jobhn B. Kemp, besides a host of
friends, to mourn her untimely
death.
She was laid to rest in Ma:s Hill
Cemetery Friday morning. Rev. F.
M. Lacy conducted the funeral ser
vices in the presence of a large host
of friends and relatives.
We tender the bereaved husband
our sincere sympathy in this sad be
reavement.

taketh away,
Bleszed be the name of the Lord.”

A CONVERSATION
Giood morning Jones,
flood morning Mr. Smith; wall 1 hope.
First rate thank vou. Any news?
Why yes, old man Bill Jenkins lost some money yesterday -
Heard about it as I came down this morning.
You don't say! How did that happen?
Why he came down to town yesterday with a load of produce
off his farm, and after selling it he got his check cashed and put
the money in his pocket. Said he owed some of it to a neighbor
up oear him, and in some manner he lost the money out of his
pocket on the way home.
(Smith) Well what do you think of that! Now I bought
that load of produce from Jenkins myself and gave him a check
on the bank of Powder Springs for it, and I told him to leave the
money therc on deposit and check against it to pay that neighbor
he owed. So that is what he gets by not following good advice.
Well I'm sorry about it.
