The W. C T. U. Convention
at Georgetown.
To the Editor of The Disoatch:
The veterans of the W. C. T. U.
pronounced the Georgetown convention
in the lead of any ever held, and,
indeed to those who were just initiated
pronounced it as being carried
through in the most instructive and
/ interesting manner. It was called to
order at 9 o'clock Friday ^morning by
Hrt. Sprott, the state president, who
makes a most efficient officer.
Their annual hymn is "Give to the
Winds Thy Fears." Mrs. Wait held
a parlimentary drill, which showed
the beauty of having our meetings
conducted on such a plan.
At noontide Mrs. Lena Smith held
the memorial services. She made a
touching prayer for the family of
Prof. Haynes and others who were
called to give np friends and relatives
for a higher promotion.
On Friday afternoon we heard the
president's annual address. It was
f written by a hand that showed she
was master of the situation. At the
lose Mrs. Atkins had the delegates to
give the White Ribbon salute to Mrs.
Sprott. I did not attend the Friday
evening session on account of the ?inclement
weather.
Saturday morning Miss Bessie Black
* made her annual address as president
of the L. T. L. Miss Black's health
is not good, bnt it is hoped that she
will find conditions such that she will
be able to hold her position. Several
children from "White Point and Georgetown
sang temperance songs.
At different times daring the meeting
telegrams were sent to other
States then in session, showing that
they are trying to "Wind the Ribbon
around the Nation."
Saturday evening there was a contest
both in music and oratory under
the direction of Mrs. Smith.
Sunday evening we listened to a
masterly effort by Dr. S. C. Mitchell,
from the text "If tbe eating of meat
mak-^s my brother to offend, I will eat
no more meat while the world stands."
'i Sunday afternoon Mrs. Sprott and
Mrs. Atkins addressed a mass meetI

j Remember the
ing of the children. At the evening
service Mrs. Atkins addressed the
largest audience that has ever been
seen in Duncan Methodist church. At
this meeting the climax of the W. O.
T. U convention was reached vhen
it was declared that Mrs. Atkin's address
on Esther the finest eyer made
by a woman.
The State officers were elected on
Monday morning and in the afternoon
the delegates enjoyed a boat ride
At the evening service the superintendents
of the different departments
told of their work, and at the close
we sang "God be with you 'till we
meet again."
Thus closed the W. 0. T. U. of 1910.

Forced To Leave Home.
Every year a large number of poor
sufferers whose lungs are sore and
racked with coughs are urged to go to ,
another climate. But this is cobtly and
not always sure. There's a better way. 1
Let Dr. King's New Discovery cure you
at home. "It cured me of lung trouble," ,
writes W. R. Nelson, of Calamine,
Ark., "when all else failed and I gained
47 pounds in weight. Its surely the
King of all cough and lung cures."
Thousands owe their liyes and health
to it. Its positively guaranteed for
Cough, Colds, LaGrippe, Asthma,
Croup?all Throat and Lung troubles, i

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
Mr. A. J. Mathias has gone to Lakeland,
Fla., where he will reside in the
future.
Mrs. C. L. Sox has returned to her
home in Columbia, after visiting her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Caughman.
Mrs. J. J. Lown continues very ill.
On Thursday, September 22, Mr. J.
S. Dooley celebrated hi8 o7th birthday
by haviDg a family reunion. Besides
the members of his own family,
there were several others present. W.
P. Steele, the photographer, was present
and made photographs of those
present. The R.' F. D. carrier arrived
at the dinner hour and, by previous
invitation, stopped to partake of an
excellent dinner. The table was
heavy laden with the best of eatables.
With regret the carrier could stay
only long enough to partake of the
dinner.
Before closing I wish to thank those
of my patrons who have so kindly |remembered
me during the past summer
by giving me nice fruits and
melons. I assure them that their
thoughtfulness was appreciated.
When a person tries to perform good
service and receives in return such to
kens of good will, tnere arises witmn
the heart the assurance that their labors
are not in vain.
