isst week was quite o success, tnou3h
the attendance was not so large IS
expected. DR.. F. NJ. Ellerbs, county
superintendent Of education, was pres
cnt and made practical address con-
cerning the school and school work in
general. Miss Jeter, the newly elect
ed principal Of Carem school, was in
troduced and expressed pleasure at
meeting those present and asked for
cooperation OF the community in the
Lower Union County Fair, which
meets at Santuc the latter part of the
month. A few boxes containing eat
ables We're sold at auction Ode Au-
Trey Gregory acting as auctioneer)
and the proceeds, together with addi-
and large cake made by some of the
ladies', netted a neat sum for the ben
Ell of the school. Good music was
furnished on the piano by Miss Greg
ory of Santuc and also by Mr.. E. H.
Carter on the violin. The trustees of
Carem have been fortunate in secur-
ing as teachers for the coming term,
which begins on Monday, the 10th
inst, Miss Elizabeth Jeter, the daugh-
ter Of Dr. J. T. Jeter, of Santuc, and
who taught a. Mt. Tabor last session,
from which school she comes very
highly recommended, and Mrs. Doug
| lass Edwards, also thoroughly capa-
| lie who, as will be remembered, sew
oral years ago (as Miss Lily Adams)
,!on the William Munro medal then
| given each year to the pupil of the
| rinth grade who made the highest av-
erage in scholarship.
The Meador school is now progress
ing under its new teacher, Miss Mary
Smith, daughter of Mr.. Joe A. Smith,
Of Route ., who resides near Tiger
| river.
Thos. z. Broome and Mr. Hill of
| Iockhkart, four minute speakers for
| the reinforcement of the Baptist IS
Million Campaign, spoke 10 the con-
| gregation Of Beulah church Sunday
morning and the good talks of these
gentlemen were well received and I'm
Ger the leadership of Mr.. Judson +.
Neador and his assistants Beulah will,
no doubt, make strenuous effort to
do her best. a sumptuous dinner was
served on the grounds and similar
meeting was held at Fairview in the
afternoon of the Same day.
| Dr.. Edw. S. Reaves, pastor of the
First church at Union, was the speak
cr for the latter occasion and his ad-
'lresS was most convincing. DR..
Teavcs took up the matter in detail;
first as to whether the Baptist leaders
acted wisely in undertaking to raise
575,OOO,OO0 for support Of the great
interests of the Baptist denomination;
second, whether the results already
attained have justified the effort and,
third, what is best to do in the pres
elt crisis. In the opinion of the writer
the speaker proved conclusively that
the results so far have far exceeded
anything Of the kind in the previous
years and that the right thing for
those to do who have already pledged
is to redeem their pledges to date, if
possible, and if, for any justifiable
reason, they can not pay in full, by
all means to do the best possible. Also
concerning those who have not pledg-
ed at all, it is a splendid time for
them to come to the assistance of the
campaign and pledge now and thus
the deficit, occasioned by those who
are not able to pay in full at this
time will be covered
Fairviaw church had many visitors
at the B. Y. p. U. convention recently
held and we hope each one present en-
| loyed the occasion and will come
again. The crowd was so large we
understood afterwards, that few
present and some that were little
.ate getting on the grounds, failed to
! get dinner. For this we were very
sorry as we tried to look after every
| one.
Mr.. R. NJ. White (Ada d. and some
members of his family, also Mr.. Chalk

Hett's Greek church, new conner to
our county, attended the B. Y. P. u.
convention.

The friends of Mr.. Will H.. Chalk
of this community who had the mis-
fortune of having his leg fractured by
being run over by an automobile at
Union, are very much concerned over
his condition, as it is reported that his
limb may yet have to be amputated.
