Baconton Hems.
For the plea'sure of those who
have asked “SchoolGiil” to con¬
tinue writing the Items, she sub¬
mits the following. To those
who disapprove ol the Items gen¬
erally, she would say—well,
nothing.
Mr. Allangon of Atlanta, one
of Georgia’s many brilliant young
men, is here in the interest of
a school-library system. He ad¬
vocates a Lyceum course for this
place, and as our pec pie are very
enthusiastic over the subject, we
shall, in all probability, get the
proposed course. V7e fully rea¬
lize that it will be quite a treat
for us.

Cordele visited relatives here last

Messrs. Roy Stripling and Rob¬
in Cochran are n&w 4 pupils from

The “trio” still exists, but it
isn’t the only “trio” now, for we
hear of another that is connected
with still another by the slender
possibilities contained in “three
straws.” And the three “trios”
join each other in advocating
that each separate “trio” “holds
its own.”
Mr. John Turner went on
“special business” to Pelham
Sunday p. m. We wonder
whether or not there is a pair of
blue eyes in that business. Or
perhaps they are Brown. We
hear that Mr. Turner intends go
ing to Metcalf to continue his
business.
Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Culbreath
of Baker were over here Sunday.
Mr. Eyoae Dean was here
from Pretoria Sunday. We
know what kind of eyes there
are in that affair.
Vaccination has for some time
been the crier of the day, and
the effect is now being seen
in flushed cheqks and tear-dim
eyes; and heard in “weeping
and wailing and gnashing of
teeth.” Those who have not yet
submitted to vaccination have
an advantage over the now un
fortunates—they can “laugh in
their sleeves.” C?
Excitement over the strike ran
high here a whilp Sunday.
Mrs. Dora Cottle of Doerun
was here with relatives last week.
The tables were turned Sunday
in that nearly every married
couple in the townold and young,
was driving while the young
folks took a back seat. What
has got into the married couples?
Tnere must be something in cot¬
ton futures after all.
Mr. Proctor of LaGrange,

The League library collection

widely patronized.
Mr. B. B. Lane of DeWitt was
here to services Sunday.
We hear of a runaway here
Sunday which resulted in the in¬
jury of several colored children.
As the number stands now Ba¬
conton will have six contestants
in Camilla for the places at the
Chautauqua: two in instrumen¬
tal music, one in vocal music,
two in reading, one in oratory.
Mr. Lane, whose training brought
Baconton’s medal last year, will
train those in reading and ora¬
tory, while Miss Bacon, that
sweetest of musicians will train
those in music. Ye other towns
had best prepare for at least a
contested fight.
Our new chandelier is in place
in the M. E. church, and we are
justly proud of it.
Mr. Fob Culbreath of Bain*
bridge is here on a visit,
Valentine Day was well ob¬
served here, that is, most of the
valentines were issued on the
days immediately preceding and
following. Though many insult¬
ing comics were sen f by ."those
whose respect for self and others
could be held on a needlepoint,
the general pleasure attending
St. Valentine Day was not marr¬
ed.
What did “Flint River Coon”
mean by a duplicate of the yel¬
low jacket? We didn’t C?
The A. O. Bacon Literary So¬
ciety has neen re-organized, and
the new officers are: President
Hattilu Glosiei: vice-president,
Frances Fleming; secretary,
Beulah Pinson; librarian, Willie
Van Vickie; editor, Tom Flem¬
ing. The program for the meet¬
ing Feb: 19 is an elaborate one,
celebrating the birthday of Low¬
ell and Washington, with music
Interspersed.
The Ladies prayer meeting and
missionary society held at Mrs.
J. R. Pinson’s Tues. p. ra. was
well attended.
(Later) The Lyceum course for
Baconton is assured. Hurrah!
The B. Y. P. U. was never bet¬
ter than it was Sunday with
Gifts of Our King as a subject.
The League Sunday p, m. was
well attended, and the program
was most interesting with a sub¬
ject of “What will true friend¬
ship do?” Or as Col. Bacon ex¬
pressed it, “What will not true
friendship do?” ne (Col. Bacon)
gave a most impressive talk.
First, taking up David and Jon¬
athan of Biblical fame, he dwelt
long and well on their beautiful
friendship. Then “turning to
the pages of fiction,” he gave
striking illustrations of true
friendship from Tennyson’s En¬
och Arden and Dickens’ Tale of
'Two Cities. Going back to fact
„
he told of Jesus and His friend¬
ship for all mankind, dwelling es¬
pecially on His agony in Geth
semane where he sweated great
drops of blood, then leading on
to His last words on the cross,
“It is finished.” W(thal it was
a gt and talk and very character¬
istic of Col. Bacon. But of
course “School Girl” can’t near¬
ly give him justice here even in
outline^
Work has again been resumed
on the Baptist Church.
As there is such a thing as a
waste basket to be feared, Good¬
bye, School Girl.
