Notices are posted for election of
school officers in the Independent
District of Cresco at which the oues-

in bonds for the purpose of putting a
steam plant into the old school build
ing. This is a good scheme. The
stoves are about burned out necessi-
tatlng new ones, hence for health and
comfort it ls wise and prudent to make
the contemplated change. In a proper
ly ventilated and evenly heated school
room pupils can do double the work
possible in badly ventilated and un-
evenly heated room. Although
the board ask for authority to issue
bonds in the sum of $4,000 only the
sum required for the plant will be
issued, and will probably be much less.
The health of the pupils will be pro-
noted by this method of heating as
the school room can be better ventl-
lated and will be free from the dust of
the stoves. No parent should neglect
to provide the means requisite for the
health and comfort OF his children

OF securing that end is to enable the

A fair sized audience greeted the
Georgia Up-to-Date performance last
night at the Davidson Opera House.
The performance was considerably bet
ter than the public had anticipated.
The opening .6rst part" with its solos
and specialties was pronounced by
competent critics to be superior to the
same features of Black Patti show here
some weeks ago and olio that followed
was full of good things. The buck
dancing of johnson and Harris was a
feature and Harry Gillam's acrobatic
work was OF an eccentric and amusing
nature. There were musical special
ties galore and the performance con-
cluded with a skit and cake walk.

something to do with 1t. and apparently
all to do with 1t, but the credit Is due to
God. The Psalmlst said: UNLESS the

glory and yours. You shah be honored
and gloriAed with Him.
This spacious building is not the end
Of your efforts, but the beginning OF
what is to come. There Is no higher

The afternoon meeting was one to re-

throughout the vicinity. The following
pastors were present, who delivered
short addresses, congratulating the
pastor, Rev. s. J. Boyle, the officers,

member Of the congregation for their
diligent and untirlng efforts to erect
