LETTER FROM MR.
* JOHN W WITTY J
< ?- . k . b<
' ' | '
To the Editor of The Newt:
. There is a sect in this city who call pl
themselves Jthe Church of dbd'fiut'1"
ari^ chjled by outsiders "Holy Roll-:p,
era," &n<f I believe other names are p'
applied to the seel. Their mode or 1
thinner of worship is unique. Their lu
pecularities have not been known 01
.... *11 * I ? A At tV
propriety (if nothing else) demands
that common sense be put in our vv
oc
church work and discipline. ( is
not reasonable *Uat all the chinches
are right and can he j.ib'ified. Then
w
who is wrong una whit is the penn.tv?
w
to
A call to "books' means a stii
sv
among the children. Our town and rj
county report more scholars In attendance
at school than ever bcfoic.
cs
Of course, that is what should lie,
ca
but that remands move teachers an1. fT.
more money. Just think of it. Last
week the school teachers in Georgia
were paid $250,000 which only covers
one-tenth of their claim for the year
gj
as it is called. Only about eight (
months they call a year, leaving out
one work day in each week I The
amount demanded for the eight
months as above is $2,500,00. ,
^ _ i Think of it. Is tlie service, as rendiC"'1
worth the large sum? I be- y
^kye and think it can be demonstrated
most of the teachers are indifferent
and are only concerned
when pay day conies. Others (quite a K
number, tool are incompetent and "
r hence Inefficient. It might be said ^
. .. bi
we are between two tires.
a
Tom Watson .icems to be in the ^
hands of the Philistines. The C'hron- |
icle editor handles him with gloves ()
off. He charges him with gross mis- jt
representations (lying if you p'easc?
and submits affidavits, from good r]
men, to prove what lie says. Wat- ^
son has had his say long enough. It j(
Is true that his statement! are over- (|
drawn and cannot be relied upon. At lt
the same time, he has some followers ^
that need posting on the othe/ side t]
of the ledger. No doubt what he has (1
said about the Catholic Church and
foreign Missions was done to in- ~
crease the circulation of his paper 11
and make money for his coffers. That T
idea stand* belt very prominently w
these late days. The idea of a m?n u
defaming another good name to mul- tiply
his gains or riches, has a con- ^
temptable character. J
Your readers will, no doubt allow
me to make a prediction, that is, that J
Georgia will be all right in a genera
lion or two. There is too inanv good 4
men working at the problem lor it ^
to be otherwise. By the way, I am ,
so much pleased at the action (vote)
of your state on the temperance j
question and I do hope the law i
will be enforced, when the time 4
comes, to the letter. i|
A few days ago I saw the following ^
headlines in one of our daily papers, Viz*.
"War on haae hall nnnl ?ramh- .
ling." War means that it is being !
fought and for the reason that pool |
gambling follows the game. I am <
opposed to the game for various reasons
and I believe that Its advocates
will lessen as the days go by. The
idea of spending so much time and
money on a play or a "knock down"
that makes no returns unless perposed
to foot ball. In fact, of the two

present year has attracted unusual ll
attention and criticism. I allude to ,Jt
their manner of conducting rellg- r'
ious worship, especially on revival vv
occasions. At the appointed time th
(hour to begin service) the minister Wl
invites the congregation or member- sn
ship to engage or take part in an ex- a'~
perience meeting whereupon quite a 1(
number, with much feeling, tell of al
their enjoyment religiously and their
demonstrations on the occasion are
^ so unusual and ridiculous (if I may ()I
be allowed t ouse such a word in such ?
connection) that the outsider or nonmembers
display mirth unbecoming a ' '

(mostly women) will whirl and n<
exhibit signs of great feeling at u
times. Will prostrate themselves on ^
the floor and make a noise that they r
call the unknown tongue and I am ,u
sure it is unknown so far as the act Wl
ors or congregation is concerned, but
V
one thing may be said and that is
PQ
that the adherents to this faith are
honest and believe they are doing h
right and are in the right church.
No doubt thev believe other churches ?.T
Su
are misleading, while they are the
"Simon pure" kind.
Now, I introduce this matter to
make the inquiry how these things
can be reconciled. Are these things p<
ra
non-essential. We must believe that
)ld- and patronize such institutions
id carry our children along.
Extensive preparations is now on
md to pull off a Pair in this city

iss Editor about making such a
ip?see a live town and get some
iws for The News. I . think you
ould enjoy it.
I am sorry to have to report a
Ty considerable falling off in the
ne crop. This section has learned
e art of making good syrup and
e crop Is now an important and
ofitable one. Cane requires conderable
moisture which the eleenta
have not furnished recently,
i other words it has been very dry
?re for quite a while and hence a
>or cane crop is the result. It
,ined a little last night and is damp
id cloudy today (2i>th Sept.) and
e may be able to report much out>me.
I am still interested in cows?a
auk and if your readers will bear
!th me I will herein set forth facts
hich will no doubt be surprising
i many. About five weeks ago I
capped an old cow (good blood but
le was a stripper) for a heifer about
te year and eight months old (being
lived Dee. 24. 1912.) She had a
ilf (but that was accepted in thtc
ade. August 15, 1915, when sne
as 1 year and 7 months and 12
ivs old.) We are now milking her
without a calf? an* we get near two
illons a day front her. Remember,
te will not be two years old until
ext Christina:* or Christmas eve
The mother of the heifer has her
scond calf (2 or 4 months old) and
giving about four gallons of milk
day and will not be 2 years nid
ntil November.
The Heath Spring correspondent
hevdoes not sign the paper and I
now mm not i claims that they ni.

now that such was the case. ! have
pen claiming that ileath Spring was
live wire and up in all modern ini

shine away your darkness.
Not long since I saw a statement
