Central has two candidates for
county offices; Jos Bigler for clerk
of the Superior Court, and ROllin P.
Jones for county school superinten-

democrats and we are proud of them.

with typhoid fever since the middle
of May, is getting better. We hope
to see him out soon.
School will start here September
7th, with X. P. Jones as principal
and Mrs. S. F. Haywood and Mrs.
Eliza Coleman as assistants. Mr..
Jones has taught here four years
and it would be hard indeed to find
man who could take his place. He
is clean, jOvial, a good citizen and a
hard worker and is we'll liked by the
school children and all his associates,
This is the second year for Mrs,
Haywood in our school. Her work

Why Not Go To
Church Sunday

There will be services held at the
Baptist Church next Sunday both
morning and evening. The themes
of the sermons will be. The Peoples
Christ" and The Second Coming of
Christ v
All departments of the Sunday
School will meet. The primaries
in the M. E. Church and all others
in the Baptist Church.
The janitor rings the M. E. Church
bell for all these meetings. If you
are new in town, come to church
and you will be welcomed. And
remember that a large part of manv
of our congregations in the west are
new people. Because other people
move just like YOU do. So don't
wait for some one to invite you to
church, because, someone else is just
waiting for you to invite them to
church.
If you belong to one church and
your husband or wife belongs to
some other church, here is the place
to attend church, where you both
can sit together in your own serIice.
The regular attendants have had
about two mouths rest from the
morning services.
Why not all come next Sunday
and honor the Lord in His house.

Regarding the charge of granting

In another case related by DR..
Hughes, that of Ross DAILY, convicted
in Mesa for cattle stealing and SEN
fenced to Florence for one year.
The statement made was that DAILY
was let out before the jury had re-
turned to their homes. The news
papers made a great outcry over
this and its was published all over
the country. The facts were that
DAILY went to prison. Eight days
later he was sent out with an offer
to work on the roads. Passing
through Mesa he was seen with the
officer by one of the jurymen. DAILY
was not wearing prison stripes and
the officer was not in uniform. Be-
Iieving that Daily had been freed, he
tod the story to the local newspaper
and it was spread broadcast. The
truth is Daily served his term, ex-
cept few months that were COM
muted on account of his good rec
ord. DR.. Hughes could easily have
secured these facts from the records
if he had che sen to do so, but he
did not, and has exaggerated and
misrepresented everything with the
view of placing all the Odium posi-
ble on my administration.

It is when a boy starts to fight the

meets new people, he should be given

Life becomes more serious to him

healthy fun, you'll drive him to the
