Birthday Surprise.

One Of the most pleasant and
complete surprises imaginable was
given to Mr.. A. C. Justice, Monday
night at his home on West Cypress
street, by about thirty of his friends.
The surprise was planned by the
family and friends without his get
ting an inkling of it. He and Mrs.
Justice took supper with his son,
John. After supper an auto ride
was suggested. But Mrs. Justice
needed her coat. Accordingly they
stopped at the house for it and Mr.
Justice ran in to get it. AS he I'M
locked the door, presto! lights fash
ed, hands clapped and congratula-
tons we're extended in a medley,
and the auto ride gave way to a
merry evening at home.
The guests had brought birthday
cards with many good wishes eX-
pressed in rhyme. Others had been
sent by those who could not be
there, and the collection was read
by Rev. E. j. Hammond, together
with three poems appropriate to the
occasion. one written by himself
and the other two by Mr., and Mrs.
C. N. Dewey, of Martinique, Mich.
After the reading DR.. c. D. Seely
called attention to the fact that Mr.,
Justice had two weaknesses, in in
diligence of which a huge coffee cup
and several cigars were presented
with the best wishes of DR.. and Mrs.
Seely.
Mr.. Justice responded to all most
happily. He indeed carries his
three score and ten years as though
they were but 'forty-nine." Old
fashioned games, refreshments and
several recitations by Mrs. Rouse
occupied the remainder of the plea
ant evening. Then the friends sang
God be with you till we meet
again, and departed wishing their
guest and host many happy returns
of the day.

An Interesting Exhibit.

One of the best exhibits ever
in Ben Hill County was that of the
International Harvester Company,
shown at the Fair, last week. The
most attractive feature of the dis
play was the gasoline engine, which
was a perfect success, especially the
IS horse power engine which start
ed and run on magneta without the
aid of batteries or other power
This engine pulled a 24in. meadow
Grist mill and a No. 8 Kelly Feed
Grinder, which is equal to e horse
power, however the little IS horse
power got there and delivered
the goods" 0. K,
There were three smaller engines,
each of which proved a great sue
cess, running the entire five days
without a hitch, each engine devel-
oping it's rate of horse power and
carrying its load steady and smooth.
Another feature of this display
which created a great deal Of inter-
est, was the pump and wood saw,
each of which demonstrated in d
most effectual way its own particu-
lar usefulness.
The success of the International
Harvester Cos. display was due en-
tirely to the enthusiasm and efforts
of Messrs. E. c. Miller, Blocksman
and General Manager, E. S. Bell, Lo-
cal Agent, R. T. Antry, Salesman,
u. S. Cornell, Salesman and R. NJ.
Mathews, Salesman and Expert.
We certainly hope to have their
people with us at our next Fair,

The Church Booth.

The ladies always get there"
This fact was we'll demonstrated
last week at the Fair, by the success
of the lunch stand which was opera
ted by the ladies for the benefit of
the Episcopal Church.
Owing to the courtesysand gener-
osity of the Dalton Flour Mills, who
donated all the flour used, Mrs. L.
M. Klein was enabled to again show
the general public that her fame as
a good cook is we'll merited and we
think it is safe to predict that the
longing for another taste of Aunt
Celia's' hot pancakes and biscuits,
will for weeks to come, disturb the
dreams of homeless bachelors and
unfortunate clearinghouse victims.
Miss Stewart who presided at the
coffee and sandwich booth, has
made the Carnival Brand of Coffee
a household word in Fitzgerald
This coffee also was donated by the
Southern Coffee Mills, of New Or
leans, through the courtesy of Mr.
Walter Harvey, local salesman.
The Acme Flour, of which the
biscuits were made, is second to
none and is sold by Mr. L. 0. Tisdel.
The Graham Flour is handled by
both MIR. Tisdel and the Vendome.
Any housewife desiring Carnival
Brand Coffee can get same by ask
ing her grocer to order it for her.
AS an advertising medium for
products demonstrated, this booth
was a perfect success. 1t was also
a financial success, owing the I'M
firing efforts of Mr.. T. c. Miller, who
donated largely, Mr.. Cleve Miller
and Mrs. Klein in charge of the
Flour demonstration, Mrs. Stewart in
charge Of the Coffee demonstration
and the several ladies who ably as
sisted them

Poultry Exhibits

The Poultry exhibit at the Fair
was mot only one Of its chief attrac-
tons, but was a show within itself.
Well as we know how progressive
our people are, we did not know
there was so much pure-bred poul-
try in Ben Hill County.
But they turned in the goods last
week. Early Tuesday morning the
committee were swamped and more
coops had to be built. By night
several hundred birds were on the
grounds.
The displays of White and Barred
Rocks, R. |. Reds White Leghorn,
Buff Orpintons and Notified Ancon-
as deserve especial mention. Also
the Partridge Rocks exhibited by
Mr.. Farmer, of Abbeville, the Ban
taGns and pet stock and the exhibit
ton pens owned by Mr.. Small.
During the entire week the poultry
exhibits were one of the chief at
fractions. Those who visited the
Fair at Triton, and the State Fair at
Macon, say the exhibit of poultry
here was better than either.
Much credit should be given to
the local Poultry Association for its
success. Especially we're Messrs.
Patterson. A. C. Justice, H. B. Deyo,
Clarence Lee and DR.. Osborne untir
ing in their efforts to make it a
success. They secured the services
of Mr.. Harnell, Poultry Editor of
the Atlanta Journal, as judge; and
generally showed themselves capa-
BILE of handling any poultry propo-
sition. Next year they should be
given a building with more room
and better facilities for the exhibit.
An entry fee should be charged and
liberal cash prizes given. The
pure-bred poultry business is here
to stay. Boost it on.

Railway Company announce the ap-
pointment Of Mr.. George H. Wilcox

The Epworth League of the First

Social at the parsonage, on Tuesday
night. Large Jack-o-lanterns made
of pumpkins stood guard outside
the house. Smaller lanterns and
autumn leaves formed the decora-
tons within. The reception COM
mittee were masked and Miss
Witch did her part to make the af-
fair a genuine Halloween. Nuts
and apples we're the refreshments.

Near Beer Dealers
Barred By Nasons
Grand Master So Advises The
Grand Lodge at Macon.

Macon, Ga, Oct. 31.-The Grand
Lodge of Masons of Georgia, met
here this morning for the annual
session. The morning was devoted
to an address of the grand master
George N. Napier, who reviewed
the work of the year and pointed
out the great work done by the Ma
sonic order during the year.
He told the grand lodge of decid-
ing that a man who engaged in the
near beer business could not re-
main in good standing as a Mason,
as no Mason should engage in that
sort of work.
The visitors were entertained this
afternoon with a barbecue by the
local Masons.
The grand lodge will be in session
for three days. One of the princi-
pal questions to be decided is
whether or not the headquarters of
the grand lodge shall be removed
from Macon.

1.-THE MUSIC MASTERS"

The Interpretation OF Charles
Klein's book, The Music Master by
Arthur Rachel, dramatic reader, of
South Bend afforded an evening Of
rare pleasure o large audience at
the Methodist Church last evening.
Many in the audience who have seen
the play with David Warfield in the
role of "The Music Master" declared
today that Mr.. Rachel aroused their
sympathy and interest again in the
strong play as did the great actor.
The pathos and sweet simplicity of
the story together with the humor
that relieves the tense situations here
and there all were given splendid
presentation by Mr.. Kachel.-Miles
Michigan News.
Mr.. Rachel will bring to us a
masterpiece in which he has been
perfecting himself for the past two
years. He willread "The Music Mas
ter" fascinating play by Charles
Klein, which David Warfield, Ameri-
cas- greatest actor has made famous.
The story is one of those touching,
intimately human appeals, which draw
upon the sympathies of everyone. 1t
has been the pleasure of a number
of our citizens to have seen the play
with David Warfield in the title role,
and all speak in glowing terms of the
wonderful force of this sweetest and
most uplifting of stage characters.
1t ranks in the same class with "The
Servant in the House" and the pass
ing OF the Third F loor Back" being
very similar in that principle of
brotherly love exerts regenerating
influence upon the liver of those with
whom Manson the Servant" the
"Passer-by," and "The Music Master"
are associated. It is a sermon we
cannot afford to miss, and is undoubt-
eddy the finest thing we have had the
pleasure of hearing. Those who have
heard him read 1.-THE Music Master
say don't miss it."
