Spencer of the Macon Telegraph and Herring of IbeTifton (I t em liave exhausted their vocabulary of wit, humor and sarcasm in ex pressing their appreciation of chit tellings. Hoys, why not vary the monotony in a few preachments in re “Cracklin' Bread,’’ the sort oui mothers use to bake. The Tribune welcomes Mr. 1). C. Wright to the editorship of The Willacoocbee Times, lie lias an excellent field for labor, and t rusts he will serve it well. However, it is true, if he accomplishes his task satisfactorily, lie will need in com plete measure the hearty co-opera lion of his feitow-citizens. No editor can do his best for his com munity without a steady and sub stantial support. From the sporting page of the Macon Telegraph it, is learned that the “Douglas Aggies have turned out many star players in Grid game.” Thought the Douglas (11 th District) Agricultural School was being supported to “turn out” farm ors. Will somebody please tell us how many "star” farmers have re ceived diplomas from this school? I f there has been one he has escaped public notice. These star “din mond” and "gridiron” players are not seeking fame on the farm, but a leading place in the garden of athletics where they can work an hour or two twice a week and lazy around the balance of the time — maybe turn out to be “star” gam blers. On every farm in South Georgia there is six days work to he done every week, fifty two weeks in the year. 11 lias been so ever since the Divine fiat went forth from Eden that ”4n the sweat of thy face shall, thou eat bread till the days of thy life,” and there be none who can circumvent the decrees of Al mighty God. He meant for you to get busy and stay busy on your farms, or other vocations. Idleness is a baue to civilization and a sure road to sorrow. The farmers who keep busy, studying and working, on his farm will never need for laws staying indebtedness or for governmental dictation how he shall conduct his farm, whet her he shall plant this or that crop. Farm ers, more than any other class of toilers, have it, in their power to maintain their independence. They can if they will —the question is, have they the will to do so? Pearson Methodist Church Notes The interest being manifested in the different departments of the l’earson Methodist Church since the beginning of the new Confer ence year is indeed gratifying to its members. Much of our former indifference seems to have been cast aside and real enthusiani, of some degree at least, is being shown. One of the most hopeful signs that we have noticed is the resur reotion of the mid week prayer serv ice, fl say resurrection, for what it lacked being dead was but little). Brother Luke, our new pastor, has a unique way of conducting these services —quite different from any thing that we have been accustom ed to in the church here —and with the results that the attendance has already increased some several hundred fold. At the present he is taking up in chronological order the various events in the life of Christ and drawing therefrom with much force and interest the lessons most applicable to us to day. Now. what we want and veal I j need is your presence at these mid week services. Our Pastor prom ises to hold us just one hour, and if you will but try it we believe you will agree with us that it is one of the most profitable and in teresting hours of the week. Sup pose you come next W ednesday evening at seven o'clock. And don’t by any means forgot our Sabbath School. It meets every Sunday afternoon at three o’clock. W e are especially anxious that the young men of our town become interested in this depart ment of work of the church, and towards this end we art'organizing a Young Men's Class. Come and help us to make it a snceess. It will do you good, encourage and stimulate us, and in return wo will do our best to make you feel wel come. Very truly, G. H. Mixgledorff. Mt. Zion News.

In mom ry of little Johnnie, son of Mr. an Mrs. J. 11. Ration!, born Apr 22d. Ibid, and died Xovembei 4th. 1920. He was bright little boy. the joy of the home and with the ap parent pro uise of a great life of usefulness out the soft still voice from the distant shore called him, and human hearts and bauds could do no mon to stay the summons. He was attended by kind friends and the best medical skill. He battled with his alltictions for sev oral days, and when the end came he whispered with his last breath. “God bless Mamma’s baby." and fell into that dreamless sleep that kissed down liis eyelids still. Funeral services were conducted at Elim Church and the little boy was laid to rest, under the tower ing evergreens, to await the Resur rection morning when the broken “WELL, OLD MAN, HOW • ARE YOU?” If Your Blood I 3 Rich and Red You Say "Fine ” ENTHUSIASM IS RED-BLOODED.
