An Oversight
. By an error, which in the rush
of going to press was overlooked
by us, two paragraphs of our re
port of the Masonic pknic were
omitted. They are as follows:
.. "Arriving at the Campus the
line of march was broken and the
crowd collected under the' trees
near the pavillion, where Mr.
Neale Bennett, the Master of
Richmond lodge, acted as master
of ceremonies in a modest and
agreeable way.
"Dr. C. K. Marshall offered an
invocation.",
AVe regret the omission . very,
very much, but, like the editor
who wrote up the wedding elabo
rately and left out the name of
the groom, all that we can now
do is to continue to regret it.
The Richmond Band, under the
leadership of Prof. Alex Bowles,
played a beautiful selection of
popular airs throughout the day,
which added much to the pleasure
of the guests.
Altogether it was a memorable
occasion long to be remembered
by our city and guests. -

Sunday School Convention
' " - ., - i , ,
One of the largestand most en
thusiastic conventions ever' held
in Madison County was the' 'Sun
day School Convention held at
the Pond Church on Thursday,
August 28. It opened with prayer
by Rev. C. K. Marshall and the
welcoming address was given by
Mr. W. L, Grutchec and the re
sponse made by Mr. Wilson,
Miss Helton the Secretary of the
Convention sang a solo . which
was greatly enjoyed. Next on
the program was -an interesting
talk by Mrs. Joe Chenault on
'.The Training of The Child," fol
lowed t by Mr.' Kelch of Berea
whose subject was "The Critical
Period." Mr. R. E. Turley- then
came to the platform . and . dis
cussed the subject "Reaching The
Adult," after which Mr. Walter
Frazer made the last speech be
fore the noon hour, "The Message
of the State Worker." And here
if we might be permitted to say
the best was yet to come, for a
spread such as has rarely been
seen in the County was now put
before the guests. Everything
from fried chicken and old ham
to ice cream and coffee. -i' ..
The first and a very interest
ing talk of the afternoon was
made by Dr. E." B. Barnes on
"Israebat Mt. Sinai," the subject
for the Sunday School lesson for
the 31th.
Rev. C. K. Marshall gave an
earnest talk ory'The Advantage
of Bringing The Boy and Girl to
Christ," and asked those who had
made a confession from twelve to
eighteen years of age to stand.
The result was his best argument.
Mr. John Arnold's subject, 'The
Worship Period of The Bible
School," was one of the good
things of the day and full of help
ful suggestions.
The Boy Problem was discuss
ed both pro and con and the vari
ous reports from the Committees
were heard. The meeting then
adjourned with prayer, and all
felt that "it was good to have
come up to the house of the
Lord."

Tobacco Cutting- in , Progress
Cutting and housing tobacco in
many parts of the county is in
progress. The crop in the county
is not up to the average, although
in some parts of the county where
rains visited ? at the right time,
the crop is fairly good.
A few years ago when the small
farmer grew tobacco, it was the
practice to cut and scaffold tobac
co in the patch. A few days sun
would yellow jhe weed consider
ably, then it was housed. ;T
In conversation with some old
time tobacco growers, it was the
opinion given by them that where
tobacco was housed in small barns
the color was brighter than when
housed in large barns. They as
signed as a reason that the . air
would freely circulate through the
tobacco.
The practice of scaffolding to-
bacCO in the patch has about gone
out of date among growers of the
weed, but it is believed by many
old and experienced growers that
the extra trouble in scaffolding
tobacco in the sun for a few days
would more than compensate the
growei;for the extra trouble.
Democratic Committee Meet-
The Madison County Demo
cratic Committee met last Satur

The Committee will meet each
