In the auditorium of the Baptist
church Sunday afternoon, September
10Th, a junior Philathea class was
organized. Miss Mamie Deubler,
president of the Georgia State Phila-
thea Union, and Miss Minnie Lou
Martin, our district organizer, had
charge of the meeting. After an
appropriate scripture lesson and song
service a dedicatory prayer was
offered by Miss Emma Riordan. The
earnest worshiper plead that these
young lives might be moulded after
the perfect model of the Christ, the
only savior. Miss Deubler made a
very instructive talk, clearly defining
the work of Philathea class-the
advantages and importance of organ
lied class work in the Sunday school
The Philathea class is as much a
part of the Sunday school as any
other class in the school. If organ
lied methods succeed in the business
world why not put the same bust
ness-like methods, tact and talent
into the study of Gods wonderful
book?
The enthusiasm of the speaker
held the listeners en-rapport, and
every heart went out in loving SYM
pathy to the class of bright young
girls who were taking up this new
phase of their Lords work The
following officers were elected: Miss
lila Methvin, president; Miss Lucie
HoTsley, vice-president; Miss Louise
McNulty, recording secretary: Miss
Jonnie VIII McClelland, correspond
ing secretary; Miss Ruth Tweedy,
treasurer; Miss Lucille McLendon,
class reporter, and Miss Minnie
Bridges, teacher
We extend to this band of lovely
young girls the warm hand-grasp of
sympathy, and welcome into the ever
increasing Philathea ranks. Our
president, Miss Blackwell, spoke for
the entire class when she said: "We
want you to regard us as your big
sisters. How our hearts warm and
thrill as we catch a vision of the
wonderful possibilities that lie out
before you in the worlds great har-
vest field We have right to expect
splendid work of your class, starting
out under such favorable auspices.

ANALYSIS REVEALED POISON
Strychnine Found in Will GIaze's
Stomach Killed Two Dogs. Anal
ysis Made by Dawson Doctor.

A'As~NAC Ny DoWSOAA DOtEOEs
An analysis of the stomach of
William Glaze, who died at Chicka-
.saWhatchee three or four weeks ago
under circumstances that aroused the
suspicion of his guardian, Mr.. ]. C.
Joiner of Sasser, has been made by
DR.. w. H. Gardner of Dawson.
1t will be remembered by readers
OF The News that the dead mans
stomach was sent to the state chem
list in Atlanta for analysis, who re-
FUSED to make the examination on
the ground that such work was not
IN line with his official duties.
While Dr. Gardner is rather reti-
cent on the subject and has nothing
TO say, it is known that the chemical
analysis disclosed strychnine, and
that a practical test was also made
by giving some of it to two dogs,
one of which died in about forty
minutes and the other in about an
hour. Some of it was also given to
frogs, and killed them in a short
time
Whether the matter Will be al
lowed to rest where it is, or whether
efforts will be made to ascertain the
cause of the poison in Glaze's system
only future developments will dis
close.
