To say the play Civil Service,
which was put on by Odell high school
last Friday evening. was a success.
would be putting it mildly. Earnest,
faithful practice had for its reward a
condition that was very near perfec-
tion itself, not one player faltering
over lines but all going:smoothly from
curtain to curtain. The selection and
makeup of characters, the stage set
ting and coaching during practice,
were factors which contributed largely
toward success and these indicate spe-
cial ability on the part of the high
school teachers, to whom great credit
is due.

evening service will be varied some
what. Rev. Newham will preach and
the Epworth League lesson hour will
probably be given for this service.

REV. LEE ONEAL IS
I" PRESIDING ELDER
GIVEN PROMOTION AT CLOSE OF
coLoREp coNFERENcE

Rev. Lee O'Neal, who for long
time has been pastor of Bethel c. M.
E. Church in Cordele, has been made
persiding elder for the Savannah dis
trict by the Central Georgia confer
ence whose sessions were closed here
Sunday night.
He will still retain headquarters
here, but the fact that he is to be re-
moved from pastors activities in con-
nection with Bethel church has prov
en- a disappointment to his congrega-
tion and to the colored church work
ers in Cordele who know of his splen-
did characteristics. l.
In the place Rev. J. A. Jackson will
serve as pastor fBethel. This man
formerly was presiding elder and the
two have beeen exchanged by the
conference. Rev Lee o'Neal has many
friends among the white people of
Cordele who know him as a faithful
church worker, and leader who has
done much for the negro in this sec

ING LETTER FROM FRONT


ING LETTER FROM FRONT
Lieutenant John Stroller, who is
now in Belgium, has written letter
brimming full of interest from the
Belgian from his mother. 1t follows
in full:
Belgian Nov. 18th 1918.
Dear Mother:-.
AS this is absolutely the first
chance I've had to write since the
big day, have about forgotten every
thing of Importance, and any way, it
does not matter, as it is all over now
and I'm o. K. and happy. We heard
the good news early one morning as.
we were all set just getting ready for
little trip over the top, and to say
the least, that was one happy bunch
And this bird wasn't far behind them,
for right there my stocks rose about
nine million per cent, and the u. S. A
looked just months and months near
er. And Lord, you should have seen
these French and Belgian soldiers
They have been hearing for the last
four years that soon it would all be
over and finally, when it did happen,
their joy knew no bounds. What we
are to do now. don't know "Sitting
tight" now is the order and sit tight
we will with the greatest enthusiasm
until something definite happens. OF
course we can't begin to conjecture
even how long we will be here, but
right now that isn't worrying us.
The thing is, our chances of getting
back are very "bon" and we should
not worry about any thing else. From
all the dope that we can get is seems
that there is to be some kind of occu.
patton of German territory and the
question in every bodys mind now is:
Will any American troops make this
trip, and if so, will the troops already
in Belgian be the ones to go? Tis suite
formidable distance and IL cross
country hiking is the order and we
are ones to go it would be some little
trip, and just between you and me, /
don't think it would be half bad trip
Certainly an interesting one, and
much better than hanging around
Right now we are situated right
where the fighting stopped-in Bel
gian house which we found all furnish
ed and all waiting for us, the inhabi.
tants having fled the day before in
front of our barrage. However, they
came back today-the whole family
about fifteen strong, and although
they are most friendly and sociable,
things are crowded to an uncomfort-
able degree-even into the wine cellor
so I "sDeck" we will be finding new
quarters soon.
In our progress during the last
three week we have covered small
distance and as we have not spent
more than hours in one place, have
seen quite bit of the country. Just
between us two, with every thing that
Belgium has gone through with. it
has France beat every way that 1 can
see it. Nothing against France, you
understand, but the cities are so
much more modern and city-like, the
people much cleaner and more hospit.
able. A "beaucamp" place, as the sol.
diers call it.
l have FINALLY gotten the transfer
that l want, now that the war is over
