ANCE.

1t will be of interest to the Sunday

tered heartily into its celebration, t.
know that 60 TO Sunday School Day
which has ben observed in Georgia
for the past three years in February
will be observed this year on the frs;
Sunday in November, in order that the
state may be a part of the interna-
tional movement. Another reason for
making the change is that better
weather can be expected in November
than in February.
The principal aim of the day is 10
have a record breaking attendance In
the Sunday schools of all denomina-
tions in America, and to try to make
the lessons and sessions unusually ar
tractive by having a special program,
with the view of creating more inter
est IN the Sunday schools and secur
ing a larger regular attendance. Large
posters are to be put up in the Sunday
schools advertising the day, and the
International program will be furnish
ed free on request by the Georgia Sun

MERCHAN IS IN ). ).
FAVOR Of bic
FAIR IN 1918
STIRRED BY THE ANNOUNCEMENT
THAT ALBANY is PLANNING TO
HAVE PERMANENT FAIR-WIIL
HAVE MEETING SOON.

Americus business men, particularly
those interested in the Third District
fair, are stirred by the announcement
that Albany is making plans to es-
tablish fair on big basis.
AS a result, reorganization of the
local fair association is certain.
Secretary Fennimore of the Chamber
of Commerce, this morning sounded
out many merchants along the line OF
recognizing the fair and planning for
an exhibition next year.
It is recognized that the fact that
Americus already has buildings, an
association and sufficient pledges ID
justify immediate operations should be
enough to keep the project alive and
put it on it's feet.
By many there is sincere regret that
the fair was not held this year, as it is
believed that this would have been a
most auspicious time.
1t is realized that if Albany starts
a big fair, it will be trade-puper
from territory legitimately belonging
to Americus, and that it will give this
city a black eye commercially.
It is very likely that at an early
g meeting of all the stockholders Of
the Third istriet fair will be called. Of
fcers elected and a definite decision
reached
At present there is no president of
the association. Mr.. G. r. Ellis agreed
some time ago to become president II
cartain things were done, but nothing
was ever done in support of him, and
in consequence he did not assume lead
ership of the enterprise.
If there is a reorganization it is
probable that steps will be taken to
make it Third district fair in fact, as
well as in name, and that every coun-
ty in the district will be asked to CO.
operate.

To the Boys in Blue" in my dear
old native town of Bennington, who
fought to preserve and perpetuate the
grandest Union upon which the sun
ever shone or proud flag waved.
Survivors OF the proudest army that
ever entered upon battlefield,
worthy descendants of our forefath-
ers, who died that we, their children
might inherit the priceless legacy pur-
chased by their answering patrio-
tism and precious blood.
AS memory turns backward to 1861
what memorable incidents are vivid
ly presented to those of us who lived
during that ver-to-be-forgotten per-
iod of our country's history.
How we'll we remember President
Lincoln's first call for defenders Of
our homes, our country and our sacred
honor From iresdes, the farm, the
anvil, and from every walk and pro-
fession in life came the answer to that
call, as fresh in our memory today as
though it were but yesterday.
AS the pure limpid streams pour
down our beautiful mountain sides, so
came the answer TO that appeal for
men who would dare to do and die
that this Union might be preserved
one and inseparable.
Upon. many hard fought battle
field, blood was freely shed and pres
iCus lives surrendered that our glor-
ious Stars and Stripes might wave
over runited and indissoluble Unior
No drawer men ever lived, no cost
lier sacrifice, was ever laid upon the
altar of liberty. The ranks of the
brave men who survived the awful
storm of shot and shell have dwindled
to a mere handful Their forms are
now bent with age and inirmity,
forms that once stood erect and
strong, offering their lives a willing
sacrifice upon the field of battle.
The memory of their patriotism and
devotion to home and country will
live long after the last Boy in Blue"
has answered the final roll call.
Every star, every stripe in our
matchless flag will forever repeat the
story of their devotion and unselfish
patriotism.
You few survivors of that, terrible
conflict are rapidly marching onward
to join another army which no man
can number When your names are
called may you all be ready to answer
Here Lord
The setting sun beyond beautiful
Mount Anthony leaves behind it a
golden reflection which no artist can
transfer to his canvas.
In like manner the grateful memory
of your achievements on many a
battlefield will be halo of glory to
you and your comrades who offered
your all that this Republic might live.
Affectionately your friend
George b. Sears

ITO THE BOYS IN BLUE
Letter to Bennington Veterans from
George 3. Sears Of White Plains

Editor of the Banner:--I have for
many years wished that might talk
TO the old soldiers on some Decora-
ton Day and express to the few that
are left my appreciation of the many
sacrifices they once made that this
Union might be preserved.
The following is a personal letter
to the few remaining Boys in Blue, "
in my native town, and at the
Soldiers Home.
Sincerely yours,
