M1DDENDORF School is progressing nicely now and every parent should sec that their children do not miss a day unless sickness prevents their going. Good things come our way once in a great while and v/e arc very fortunate in having secured Mr. Clarkson, former County Superintendent of Education in Richland County as our principal for the few remaining weeks of school. Mr. Claude R. Cannon is spending this week at home. Mrs. J. E. Johnson spent last weekend with her daughter, Mrs. Fred Wilhelm Rev. Lawson filled his regular appointment last Sunday afternoon. There were but few out to hear his most excellent sermon and those who didn't go missed a sermon that would have done them good. We have two splendid preachers in our community this year and it is a I shame that so few of the people of this community attend church. There are enough people to fill both churches every time either of the men preach and 1 am sure we would hear something from either man that would do our hearts and souls good if we took the words spoken in the right spirit. It is not right to stay away from church because you are angry with some one in it, for you really don't go to church to see the people, or at least you shouldn't, but to hear the Word of God spoken and explained to you. Rev. Myers will fill his regular appointment Sunday afternoon. Let us fill the church so that there will not be a vacant seat left. The young people of this community will give three one-act plays at the Baptist Church on Thursday night, March 24, at 8:00 o'clock. The plays are entitled "Joint Owners in Spain,*' "Thank Goodness The Table Is Spread," and "The Finger of God." There will be special music between each act. Everybody invited, admission 15 and 25 cents. GOOD BLOOD NEEDED IN SPRINGTIMF PEOPLE WITH POOR APPETITE, BAD COMPLEXIONS AND "SPRING FEVER" NEED A BLOOD TONIC GUDE'S PEPTO-MANGAN IS BEST / ??

Among these endorsements, one of i trie most notable is that from Bishop Fitzpntrick, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, whose signed letter Colonel William J. Simons, imperial wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, gives the lie to those enemies of the organization who assort the Ku Klux Klan is the enemy of the negro and is seeking to create racial prejudice. Extracts from some of these endorsements are given herewith: From Congressman Wm. D. Up. shaw, of the Fifth Georgia District: I (<If nnvhorlv ^miVvfo fV?n ?? ?.v uvuvio i?? j/awi lutii: |iUlpose of the reincarnated Ku Klux Klan or questions the wisdom of its organization, he has but to read the press report of the recent speech of Col. William Joseph Simmons, the Imperial Wizard, in the Atlanta Theatre. Packed to standing room, even in the galleries, that great throng sat for three hours, listening to the wonderfully eloquent story of the 'birth and re-birth of the Ku Klux Klan.' It was a fascinating, inspiring message?a message of love and loyalty, of beauty and bravery, of patj^ riot ism and purpose, of human interest and uncringing heroism, of com- i inunity peace and, evenhanded justice, of Anglo-Saxon achievement and unhindered AngloSaxon guardianship of the So'.ith's best ideals and the naj tion's highest happiness." From J. T. Moore, chief of police, ' and J. L. Couch, mayor of Columbus, j Georgia. ! "To Whom it May Concern: I take i this n. .hud of endorsing the Ku Klux j Klan. I am personally acquainted , with many of the citizens of this city j who are member- of the local Klan, and I know them to be citizens whose I integrity is above reproach and lawnhidinj in every respelt. Seventeen members of this Klan volunteered their services and assisted the police 1 department-during a recent epidemic , of burglaries.
