NOT 4 KILLING IN
ATLANTA DURING MAY

Atlanta is patting itself on the back
over the fact that during the month OF
May, the first prohibition month, that
not homicide has occurred within
her confines.
This is, indeed, record of which to
be proud, and rejoice over, besides it
speaks volumes for the cause of pro-
hitition, especially when it comes in
the face of the fact that during three
months preceding May, the first dry
month, there was an average of three
killings month.
The strong whiskey adherents are
now beginning to acknowledge their
Mistake and come out in open advo-
cacy of prohibition.
1t has been said that Atlanta's re-
cord for several years was one killing
a week.

SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK Show;
WONDERFUL YEARS PROGRESS

When the Georgia Sunday School as
sociation meets in Atlanta, June 13,
wonderful progress will be shown in
Sunday school work for the past yea.
A report will be made going to show
that the work of 1876 to date is far
and away beyond that of any previous
year in the history of the association
work.
The counties in Georgia regularly
organized in Sunday school work now
total 1873, which is gain over 1914-15
Of 81; there were 126 county CONVEX
tions held, which is a gain of 139;
addresses delivered totaled 1,072, as
against ST.; organizers travelled 5,78f
miles, which is a gain of 7,143; they
sent out 57,656 piecse of mail, gain
Of 7,494, and added 1S1 county Sunday
school workers.
Literature advertising the event is
being scattered broadcast over the
state, and when the convention meets
June 13, a record breaking crowd will
be in attendance.
Each Sunday school in the state is
entitled to three delegates, besides the
pastor and the superintendent of the
the school.
Atlanta is making ample arrange
nents for the care of the delegates,
and will do something little out OF
tie ordinary, in that each delegate will
be furnished his or her room and
breakfast without cost
The schools of Americus will give
q good account of themselves, partic \
ularly that of the First Methodist
church, which has a very large az
tendance, the largest, perhaps, of any
school in the state from cities of its
class.
The delegates that will go from
here are anticipating a most delight
full and prosperous season.
