Of all the elements which make
for success, DR.. Smiley declared
for honesty, which he pronounced
the best capital young man or
woman may have. Too often the
only question considered is docs
it pay? pa thought which should
be subordinated to the query, is
it right?" Diligence and Courage
of Conviction never fail to contri-
uhate to success.
The courage Of the heart and
soul to die If need be for what it be-
lieves right will bring success worth
while. As an illustration the speak
err closed with story Of Henry
Wilson, Of Massachusetts, who be-
came vice-presideut Of the United
States under John Adams. Henry
as a hoy suffered from the shame
Of drunken father, only TO grow
iuto early manhood with the same
craving for drink. 4 slap Oh the
shoulder and the cHhortation to
"DrQca up" from a friend stirred
him to determination never to
take another drink. by lis future
sobriaty and reliability he won the
respect Of eyery0ne--his influence
spreading from his native town 10
. the county and then TO the State.
But the final test was yet to come.
The young man was in vIt2d to dine
with the President. The guests
were senator's and congressman.
Amid these surroundings he en-
countareI his greatest temptation.
After battling with himself the
youngest member Of the party arose
flOm his chair and stated his posi-
ton. The wine was ordered away
land the young man was rewarded
for his courage by the homer and
esteem Of his contemporaries.
Oratioas followed by Misses
Anna Elizabeth Gallaher, Edna
Stewart Chalmers, Katharine Gar
rett Bowen and John Abel Hop
llins, Jr. Farewells and words Of
appreciation to members of the
Board, teachers, classmates, etc,
were expressed in the valedictory
delivered by Miss Margaret Truitt
Cook.
Prizes offered by the New Cen
tury Club Of Newark for the best
record in spelling for the school
year just closing, were awarded as
follows:
Eighth grade, Arthur Chillas,
So; seventh, Margaret Doyle and
Karl Jones, $3.50 each; sixth,
Marion Gallaher, ST; fifth, Harold

The prize Of five dollars offered
by the same club for the best

crowd which filled the hall to it's
utmost capacity. Chairs were plac-

the vestibule and part Of the
middle aisle throughout the. exer-
cises were filled with those unable
to find better accommodations.
The Glass Of 1913 has stamped
itself as an original one, establish
ing many precedents for the classes
of the future TO follow.
The hall was tastefully decorated
with high school pennants, pottod
plants, laurel and flowers. A
color scheme Of green and white
prevailed. Large palms were bank
ed at each end Of the platform,
while suspended from the top of
the stage ON a solid background Of
laurel, blazing in the white bril-

Two Funerals Held
Over Suicides Body
Sister of Dead Man FaInts at Sec.
ond Service, Year After
Death.

GRIFFIN, July 12-The unusual
experience of burying q. man a year
after his death came TO Rev. J. G.
Adams, one Of Griffln's ministers, this
week And the funeral service con-
Quoted by Mr.. Adams was the sec
ond one over this body.
Last August, while living in Nil
nois, near East st. Louis, z. ].
Brown committed suicide by shoot
ing himself through the head. at that
time he was buried in the town where
he died His wife and motheF~in-
law came to Griffin to reside with his
people, and have been here for eleven
months.
Recently Mrs. Brown and her
mother decided to have the body
exhumed in Illinois and shipped here
for final interment. Upon arrival
here the body was reinterred in the
city cemetery. Mrs. Staten, sister of

W. A. Clark, at II,
Begins as Reformer
Makes Fight for Better Administra.
ton of County's Funds,
and With Success.

AUGUSTA, July 12.-Joseph w.
Folk began his fight for a State" In
his thirties. Walter A Clark has
begun his fight for a county" in his
seventies. 1t is most unusual for a
man who is a septuagenarian to be-
gin to be a reformer. Reforming
usually is too hard a task for young
and vigorous man, but when a man
Of Mr.. Clark's age and physical con-
dltlon tackles the problem of reform
ing county, it is remarkable.
The man who has set about to re-
form Richmond County, or at least
help the situation here, is a veteran
and is Il years of age. He now is
County Treasurer and has been since
1897. From 1870 to 1876 he repre-
sented this county in the Legislature.
After an interval of a decade he be-
gan serving the county again, and
from 1886 until the present time he
has been connected with the county
government in one capacity or an
other.
1t was because Mr.. Clark paid the
bills of Richmond County that he
came to tackle the job of lettering
conditions. He saw where thousands
Of dollars Of the peoples money were
being expended and the county not
getting the proper results. He found
waste and extravaganza in various
places, and in a remarkable series Of
letters published in both of the Au-
gusta papers he made his fight for a
county"

Association to-day Endorsed without
change the bill proposed by Repre-
sentative Wallace Miller for the abo-
lition of the justice of the peace courts
and the creation of a new municipal
court.
The fight in the association hinged
on the proposition of electing the
Judge by the people, and those in IA

out by a substantial majority. The
Endorsement of the bill will be for
warded to the Bibb delegation in the

The justice courts in the city, not
those in the county, will be abolished
The judge Of the new court will be
elected every four years. and will re-

There has been much interest man.

Pastor to Put on Lid
At Big Campmeeting
Soft Drinks and Other Palatables
VIII Not Be Sold on Sunday
at Mount Zion..

GRIFFIN, July 1.-THE Rev.
Thomas NJ. Elliott, pastor in charge
of the Griffin Circuit of Methodist
churches, in which is located the ia
nous Mount Zion campground, gives
promise that the lid" win be put on
good and tight during the camp
meeting this year. For several years
considerable trouble has been expert
enced on account of the buying and
selling of soft drinks and other pal
atables on Sunday at the camp
meetings.
Mr.. Elliott has given notice that
nothing shall be sold at the camp
ground on Sunday, so long as he is
pastor of the meeting, and that in all
probability the public tent will not be
run even in the week days. This de-
termination has been reached because
Of the annoyance in years past and
Of the hindrance to the success Of the
spiritual work Of the meeting by the
buying and selling at the public tent.
The campmeeting this year gives
promise of being the best in years.
To cooperate with the pastor in the
meetings. the Revs w. G. Crawley,
Of oxford ]. NJ. Tumlin, of Thomas
ton, and Z. R. Seaborn, Of Stock
bridge, will be present. Charlie D.
Tillman will conduct the singing.
