PRESBYTER|ANS AT
CORNtRSv|LlE HAVE
CHURCH CEltBRAT |0h
ORGANIZED IN 1912 BY REV
HALL-sERvED BY PRoMl-
NENT MEN.
THIRTY.sIX TO The MINISTRY
Present Building Erected In 1879.
Or. MoIloy, Of This City, One Of
the speakers-sixth Generation OF
One Family Present

The centennial celebration OF the
Presbyterian church at Cornersville
was held last Saturday and Sunday
under the leadership Of their present
pastor, Rev. Cochran Preston.
This church was organized in 1872
by Rev. Mr.. Hall and has been serv-
ed at times by some Of the most
prominent ministers who ever labor
ed in Tennessee. Among the pastors
are found such names as Hall, Nor
rison, erner, Alexander, Johnson and
many others. At one time Corners
Vile church was in connection with
Columbia First church, whose pastor
went out there once each month.
Thirty-six men have gone into the
ministry from this community, and
many of them Influenced by this lit
tie church, but only two have become
ministers of the Southern Presbyte-
rian church while still in connection
with the Cornersville church.
These two, Mark Kennedy of Saint
ed memory, and DR.. Marion Stoddard
Kennedy, for more tnan twenty years
past the beloved pastor OF the Pres
byterian church at Pulaski, Tenn, are
enough to give Cornersville church
grounds for rejoicing and praising

GOOD DROP In
PRICE OF CORN
MILLS ARE NOW PAYING ONLY
$3.50 THE NEW CROP AT POINTS
ON THE RAILROAD.

Corn took fifty cent drop during
the past week, something very unus-
ual after the opening of the market
ON the new grain. All during last
week and the week before the City
Mill & Grain Company paid So per
barrel for the new crop delivered to
points on the railroad and bought a
large number of cars, some six being
shipped from Culleoka. But this week
the price is down to $3.50 and /, is
believed that it will remain at that
figure for some time to come. How
ever, even at the lower price many
are marketing their corn, going upon
the Idea that there is more money in
new corn at this time of year when
1t is damp and full Of sap and will
weigh heavier than there will he in
the old corn after Christmas at SO
per barrel. In fact $3.50 barrel two
weeks ago is equal to 1925 at Christ
mas and those who sold at So per
barrel readily got nearer $3.50 for
their crop. The corn crop in this
section Is hardly equal to that of last
year which was bumper. However,
the county will raise a good surplus
after fattening big supply of the
festive porkers.
Mills are still paying $2.75 for the
new crop delivered here.

SPLENDID Meeting
Ar ORPHANS HOME
BEING HELD TODAY
REPRESENTATIVES HERE FROM
ALMOST EVERY SECTION OF
THE STATE.
NEAR five HUNDRED ARE FED
Words of Praise Regarding the Con-
duct, the Spirit of Discipline and
General Management by the su-
perintendent and Fellow Workers.

The meeting of the trustees, di-
rectors and friends of the Tennessee
Orphan Home at that place today was
an occasion of much felicitation on
the part of the management and
praise on the part of the visitors.
There were persons in attendance
from almost every section of the
state, and all were delighted with
the present showing of the institu-
ton under the direction of Superin-
tendent Boaz and his assistants.
A most delightful dinner in which
the piece de resistance was barbecue
beef and mutton was served in the
spacious dining hall Of the institu-
ton and there were between four and
five hundred people served from IL: 80
to 1870, the many friends of the
Home in the city contributing and
helping to make it success in 9TH
or ways.
Short and beneficial talks were
made by number of visitors, and
these took occasion to remark on the
excellent discipline, the proper teach
ing and the healthfulness of the more
than calf a hundred little ones now
in the care of the Home.
The exercises were of an impromp-
tn character and continued practical
ly throughout the day.

God for her hundred years OF life.
During the centennial Thos. NC
Mahan, of Lynnville, was present
and as he had opened the first relig'
ious service in the present building
on April 16, 1879, by leading the sing
ing, he was again called into service
and opened the Sunday afternoon
service by raising the same tune to
the same hymn he had done forty
two years before.
Another interesting feature was
that David Phillips Jones, grandson
of DR.. Alfred Jones, stood before the
congregation and represented the
sixth generation of one family that
have been members of this church:
1, John Patrick; Q, his son Ephraim
Patrick; 8. his daughter, Elizabeth
Harris; 4, her daughter, Make Mrs.
DR.. A. Jones; her son, Shirley Pat
rick Jones; 6, his son, Phillips Jones.
Large numbers of people from sur
rounding churches and from other de-
nominations were present and great
time was enjoyed by all. DR.. J. G.
Molloy, of Columbia: DR.. A. s. vcna-
BILE, Of Lewisburg, and DR.. Marion s.
Kennedy, of Pulaski, were the prin-
cipal speakers, and all favored their
audiences with rare treats of litera.

undefiled gospel.

BANkING-BY-MAIL is A VERY
SIMPLE OPERATION

You simply enclose post Office, or
der, check or currency in an e1ve-
lope, together with letter, telling
the bank that you wish the amount
deposited on savings account to
draw Az interest. The bank will,
upon receipt of the letter, deposit
the amount to your credit, and will
send you a pass book showing entry
on your deposit, together with sig
nature card upon which you will
write your name and address, and
which you will return to the bank for
their file. The pass book contains
blank pages for your future deposits
and Withdrawals, as well as printed
pages, giving full information regard
ing the operation of a Savings Ac-
count. You can deposit in this way
as easily as if you lived in the city
in which the bank is located. When
you wish to withdraw your funds,
you simply send your pass book to
the bank and state the amount you
desire and they Will send you a
Cashiers Check for the amount, or
If you prefer, they will send you the
cash by registered mail.
BY the system above referred to,
the First Savings Bank and Trust
Co., of Nashville, Tenn, has buils up
a large patronage among men and
women who live in other parts of the
State and in many other States. The
fact that this institution limits its in
vestments to first mortgages on i'm
proved real estate and gilt-edge col
lateral loans, and the splendid record,
in that it has never lost dollar on
its investments, makes 1t a partcu-
larly desirable bank for people who
wish to do Banking-byMail, as they
can deposit their funds there and
feel that they are absolutely safe.7
The personal of the directorate,
composed of Nashville's citizens, has
been no small factor in the growth
and development of this strong bank,
which has won for itself place In
the confidence and esteem of the
people.
The 40 rate paid by the First Saw
ings Bank and Trust Company on
savings deposits Is, the highest rate
consistent with safety and represents
an income which is a little above the
average accepted by that class OF
conservative citizens who are will
ing to invest only In government
bonds or something equally as safe
and secure.
1t is also notable item that this
bank was the first in Nashville to
raise the rate on savings deposits to
40, feeling that in this way they
could best serve the laboring classes
in their struggle to meet the higher
cost Of living.
Any person interested In the sys-
tenn Of Banking-by-Mail, will be
cheerfuIly furnished booklet on
this subject. upon application to the
bank. Those wishing to establish
banking relations with this institu-
ton should address M. z. Holder
ness. Cashier, First Savings Bank
and Trust Co., Nashville. Tenn

NO DEVELOPMENTS
In HE SHOOTING
NO WEAPON WAS FOUND ON THE
DEAD MAN NOR IN CASH
DRAWER.

There have been no new develop
ments in the shooting which resulted
in the killing of Mike Leftwich Mon.
day noon at his place of business
Leftwich was reported to have been
in Nashville Sunday night, and there
is well defined public opinion that
the difficulty grew out of some prior
transaction, though nothing definite
can be established. The defendant
refuses to make any statement re-
garding the shooting, and there was
no one else present when Leftwich
was killed.
The examination of the body only
disclosed the two wounds as mention
ed, the one in the shoulder and the
other in the point of the hip. There
were three shots fired and one Of
these struck the counter almost over
the cash drawer and tore away hpr-
ton of wood and fell on the floor, be-
ing picked up by one OF the officers
while in the building.
No pistol was found in the cloth
ing of the dead man nor In the cash
drawer on the counter. There was
pen knife in the pockets of the dead
mans pants.
The defendant, Norman Bats, is In
Jail and so far no effort has been
made to name amount of bond, and
the preliminary has not been set.

INJURIES TO WORKMAN.

An accident happened at the rem
Gil factory in the southern portion
of the city Tuesday afternoon in
which Otto Woosley, a workman at
the factory, was considerably hruis-
ed.
In some manner his clothing be-
came entangled with line shaft and
were torn from him in shreds. and
that he escaped with his life is con-
sidered remarkable. Had the cloth
ing refused to tear he would doubt
less have been killed.
