did talk in few words, using as
he- theme, Remember all the way

and"Who daily loadelh US with bene-
fits" 1t has been pleasure to US
to have so many of the men attend

That pretty music continues and
draws us back to the house again
this time to listen to a prohibition
address by MIR. Joseph Camp of
Atlanta. The house is packed in all
available space. Rev. P. B. Lam

hour and quarter he holds his au-

humor and facts. If an opportunity
presents itself do not fail to hear
him.
The meeting is over but we can
not close this without mentioning
the splendid roads graded by the
people themselves and giving you
the most beautiful drives in wind
ing loads that reminds one of the
national highways among the noun
tains and the scenery is almost as
pretty.
The chicken farm Of Mr.. and
Mrs. S. T. Adams was wonderful
sight to those who had an opportu-
nifty Of visiting it. We all would
have enjoyed it but lack of time for
bade. We also regretted that the
hour was 80 late and the distance
before us 40 great that we could not
partake of the last treat prepared
for us but thank most heartily the
kind, thoughtful and generous man
who suggested it. We are all back
at our homes but the memory of
the trip is like good taste, twill
linger," and all who were there this
time will be ever ready to accept
another invitation from them. To
the men, women and children, we
thank you all for such genuine hos
pitality.
Mrs. w. E. Lott.
