ITS SEVENTY-FIFTH YEAR.
Anniversary of First Baptist Sunday
school Celebrated.

Anniversary Oh FIRST bhpt1St sunday
school Celebrated.
The seventy-f1fth anniversary of the
Sunday school of the First Baptist
Church was celebrated in the church
forded most encouraging evidence of
the Sunday-schoors present prosperity
and usefulness. and its constantly
growing strength.
The professional hymn, to the inspir-
ing strains of which the pupils of school
ment into and about the auditorium of
the church, was "On to Victory" The
singing throughout was one of the fea-
lures of the evening, and showed care
full training. Among the songs was
one by the infant class, under the di-
rection of Miss Alice Mccall that was
particularly enjoyed.
The remainder of the programme was
made up of scripture reading, a reel
tation, What We Ought to Do" by
Miss Julia V. Skinner, the annual re-
port of Supt. J. r. Cain, and an ad-
dress by Rev. DR.. Ramsay.
In the little talk he made the children
DIR. Ramsay complimented them upon
the entertaining and inspiring exer-
cises of the evening and upon their
own bright and beautiful appearance.
He exhorted them. however, to remem-
Der their fondest aspiration should be
to build in their own breasts the hope
Of the future life beyond the stars No
physical health, ne temporal success
could avail if this were lacking, said
DR.. Ramsay.
The final hymn. "Oh, 1t Is Beauti-
full" was inspired by these last words
of Dwight l.. Moody

"TWENTIETH CENTURY WOMAN"
Subject of John Temple Graves Lee
ture Wednesday Night,

lure w euneSuAN Night
Hon. John Temple Graves will de-
liver his lecture upon THE Twentieth
Century Woman" at the theater on
Wednesday evening The lectures will
be the event of the lyceum season in
Savannah, and it is expected that an
audience that will pack the theater
from pit to dome will greet the gifted
and eloquent orator of the evening.
The lecture will be given for the ben
eft of the free Libraries that
have been established in each
of the white public schools of
the city and it is hoped that its pro-
ceeds will materially help a work
which will rebound so greatly to the
good of the pupils of these schools.
With very limited means the teachers
of the schools have succeeded in gath
ering together already very respectable
collections of books and by this means
have been enabled to endow at least
some of their young charges with a
taste and inclination for good reading.
The press and people everywhere
he has spoken have united to declare
Mr. Graves one of the most forceful
and eloquent orators of the country, and
his lectures are acknowledged master
pieces of thought and diction.
The box office for the reservation Of
seats for the lecture will open at the
theater this morning, and from the
large advance sale of tickets, which
have been in the hands of the teachers
and pupils of the schools for the past
two weeks, it is easy TO give credence
to the confident prediction that every
seat in the house will be sold before
Wednesday night.

President Adams Spoke.

Mr.. S. b Adams, president of the
society. made no formal report. The
ground covered by the chaplain and
superintendent and by the treasurer
left little for him to add. These re-
ports he said, were excellent, but the
showing of the financial support given
the institution by Savannahians, is
commensurate with the aid that should
be forthcoming.
The president dwelt at some length
upon the excellent work of the Port
Society. showing the good it accom-
plishes. He commended most highly
the assistance received from the La
dies Auxiliary, and Mrs. Iverson' s
ministrations to the sailors and her
excellent watch and ward over them,
won her the testimony of the presi-
dent.
Its Inspiration From God.
Rev. Mr.. Scully did not speak at
great length, but he spoke very en-
tertainingly, with pleasing diction and
an apparent appreciation of just those
for so many years made it an admired
and cherished institution in Savannah
All good deeds are born of tod, the
speaker said and his inspiration should
be acknowledged.
Gods mighty works offer inspiration
TO all who VIII grasp 1t, Mr.. Scully
said, and he pointed out the manifea-
tation of the hand of Provid aace IN its
all-pervading care for Gods creatures
An inspiration of love for mis- fellows
should be caught by man f. en- Cod s
love for his creatures.
The work of the Port Society. said
Mr.. Scully, is an example of such love
He spoke of the trials and labors of
sailors-hardships and miseries that
sometimes make them question the ex-
istence of God. 1t is from such peril
that they are reclaimed by the min
lstreuons of those who care for them
in port, offering them bodily comforts
and the testimony OF the Word to
higher and better existence than that
which is their lot on earth
This Is work." said the speaker

BJTTERINE.

\ manufacturer of butterinc sends out
a pamphlet il which he insists upon the
absolute purity and healthfulne8s OF the
article. He tells something about its
manufactu and claims that he gives a
better guarantee of purity than butter
made from milk alone, for he insists
that the purchaser of butter does not
know whether the milk and cream are
from healthy COWS or not. 1nasmuch as
he saws that the oils and fats used in
the manufacture OF butterine are churn-
ed with milk and cream from COWS,
have we any better guarantee that the
COWS from which he gets these arc
healthy or any more healthy than the
average COW from which pure butter is
made? Then he calls his article 'Jer-
Sey'' butterine. Why this IL not to in
dicate some connection with the Jersey
COW? But, so long as the manufa cturers
Of imitation butter put it on the mar
ket by it's true name no objection can
be urged against it. 1t is the palEllng
it eff for something that 1t is not to
which we object. The pamphlet to which
we refer, claims that butterlnc IS great
" cheaper than butter. 1t may be with
the manufacturer, but the sample OF
this >Eutterine we saw in the retailer S
hands was priced at . cents per pound
while we have been getting the nnest OF
butter at that price all summer, ana
will not have to pay over 81 cents TOT
it during the winter. So, after all, there
is little advantage on the score OF cheap
