Elder N. G. Christopher having been granted a leave of absence, by the Baptist congregation, there was no preaching services in Pear son last Sunday. However, quite a number of Pearsau's citizens went to the annual meeting at Bethany ( Arabia) church, down in Clinch county. Some of them were born and reared in that vicinity and it is always a pleasure to them to go back to the scenes of their youth. The school superintendents of Coffee and Atkinson counties met one day last week at the Temper ance schoolhouse, a few miles north of Willacooehee, with the citizens of thatcommunity. The question of consolidated schools was discussed and a tacit agreement entered into consolidating several small schools at Temperance. It is a county line school and a number of pupils from Coffee county, living south of the Satiila river, will attend the consolidated school. The meeting, it is reported, w as entirely harmon ious. It is very probable the county- Board of Education will aid in adding one or more rooms to the present building at Temper ance to accommodate the addition al pupils who will attend the con solidated school. This is a move in the right direction. Committee Meeting. The Democratic Exeeutixe Com mittee of Atkinson comity- met at the courthouse, 10 a. in., August 19th.

It seems the car skidded and crashed into the railing of a bridge, the impact threw Mrs. Penland and her child out ou the bank. Mr. It. M. Pen land is the junior member of the law- firm of Dickerson, Rivers & Penland, with offices at llomerville, Milltown and Pearson.
