REDD --- HELP IT CROW No.31 SOUTHERN MUTUAL CLUB Members as follows: Mr. Clarence McCree President, Robert Harris Chairman, Floyd Johnson speaker, Ernest Johnson, Charlie Stevenson Entertainer, Frank Brooks, Mark Holbrooks Treasurer, Charlie Power, Richard Sanders, Willie James Hardeman, Black Bottom Secretary. The Club will meet at the home of Brother Holbrooks, June 20, 1924. All must be present. Value of Athletics Athlectics are of great value to the average collegeman. A student will begin to participate in various athletic just for the fun he gets out of them, but he is unconsciously bettering himself not only in muscle but along educationa lines. Quick thinkind, sound reasoning, and an unmistakeable eyesight are very essential in playing all athletics. One playing base ball must have an unmistakable eye sight because it is necessary in order to be a good batter. Any base ball coach will say, "If a man can bat, he can be easily taught to play." Quick thinking is very essential in the playing of foot ball. In order to better yourself along educational lines quick thinking, sound reasoning, and an unmistakable eye sight are necessary. We know this to be true because good observance is necessary to be a real student, and quick thinking, sound reasoning, and the unmistakable eye-sight are the constituents of good observance. A college man's duty is to learn as much as possible about the higher things of life, and these can be learned only by good observance, and the grit to stick to and win, which are highly developed by participating in athletics. Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Stroud, of Farmington, Ga., were in the city last week in attendance upon the marriage of Miss Ruth Murden. 2 OBITUARY Alex Hawkins, died at his home June 12, 1924 at 6:30 Pm. his funeral will be held at St. Luke A. M., E. where he has been a member for about 28 years he was the head Steward and everyone thought lots of him both white and colored, he left to morn his loss his wife Mrs. Ruby Hawkins, two Sisters Mrs. Darthus Low, and Mrs. Jullie Robinson from Chicago, one brother Mr. Charlie Hawkins and a host of relatives and his wife sisters and brother wish to thank the whole E. Athens for their kindness during his illness. Mrs. Laura Gregory Thomas was born in Athens, Ga., in 1871 where she was reared. She attended the schools here and later Atlanta University qualifying for a teacher. In 1896 she was married to Mr. Eugene Thomas. This union was blessed with three children, Mrs. Thomas was happily converted in 1916 and united with the First Congregational Church. She was loyal to her friends, the church, and a faithful wife and mother. A MOTHER IN ISRAEL Mrs. Fannie Mills-Lewis, an excellent woman and Well informed citizen, passes Death, the last enemy that shall be destroyed and whose path armies, navies and entreaties cannot obstruct or wipe away, is still moving through the land. He is still cutting with his two-edged sword, and the rich and the poor; the high and the lowly eternally fear him. On the 25th day of May the home of our beloved sister, Mrs. Fannie Milis Lewis was visited by this monster, on on his pale white horse that steals away as suddenly as he comes he bore her away to that city from which no traveler has ever been known to return. But like the voyager who was waiting for the setting of the sails of the ship, Mrs. Lewis had the exact fare ready. Mrs. Lewis was born in Athens. She attended here in her girlhood and later studied at Atlanta University. In her early years she was married to Mr. Robert Lewis, of which union one son, Isaac Lewis was born. THE ATHENS REPUBLIQUE Her membership was with the Congregational Church in which institution she was an ever faithful member. Hers was a lovable disposition, and tenents and neighbors always appreciated her presence. She had spent a great many of her years teaching, and at the time of her death—which came like a flash—she was teaching in the vicinity of Winterville. Her passing occasioned many bowed heads and sad hearts. Surviving her are: two nieces Mrs. F. L. Price of Jacksonville, Mrs. Aggie L. Hudson, of Athens & Ed. Mills, of Crawford, Ga. Neal=Killian The marrige ceremony of Miss Sarah Annice Neal and William Hertie Killian was solemnized in Atlanta Saturday, 7, 1924. These two busy youngsters waived all the pomp and paraphernalia usually indulged in, and resigned themselves to the affections of each other, just mar in accordance with the laws of the state and of God, and then came home. Mr. and Mrs. Killian will domicile at 120 S. Harris street, the cozy little home that Mr. Killian recently purchased from the widow of the late Courtney Thomas. Miss Neal, who is a graduate of Georgia Normal and Agricultural Institute, of Albany, Ga., was teaching at Southland, Institute, Southland, Arkansas at the time of their marriage. As these "newly-weds" trudge past the milesstones of this life their many friends stand ready to serve. DISTINGUISHED PERSONAGE VISITS ATHENS The business and prosessional men and women of Athens were glad to welcome the Rev. Mr. E. D. Newsome, Grand Master o, the Independent Benevolent Order, a short time ago. Mr. Newsome is very enterprising, and is connected with many of our projects throughout the state. He is theroughly an optomist, believing 100 per cent in the possibilities of his race He called at the office of the Republique while here and paid a year's subscription. June 21, 1924 Mrs. A. Mcb.-Crews In The City Mrs. Alice McLaughlin Crews, who spent a year and a half in Africa, "the Land of Our Fathers," is in the city visiting relatives and friends.

Her many friends were indeed glad to see her. Mrs. A. J. Hubbard, of Saint Augustine, Fla., is in the city visiting relatives and friends. She will return to the "Land of Flowers" in July.

Starks died in Atlanta Saturday Those who survive him are his wife, three daughters, and a host of other relatives. Hill=Havwood It appears that the last June bride has passed into that stage of more practical things—the matron of her own house hold; and pursuant to her promise made in the presence of many witnesses, has accepted the challenge to care for the one to whom she vouchsafed her all. Twas a beautiful sight on the 17th day of June 1924 when the spectator stepped over the hillcrest a hundred yards south of the home of Mr. R. L. Harris, 493 Third street, just as the marriage procession of Miss Marion Louise Holl and Rev. Arthur Lord Haywood was beginning its march to the home of the bride next door. The orderly, simple ceremony took place on the front, the Rev. Mr. W. A. Fountain officiating assisted by Dr. C. S. Haynes. The attendants were: Miss Sarah Jane McMichael, Messrs. Grady Powers and R. L. Harris. The bride was given away by her father, Mr. W. B. Hill. Rev. and Mrs. Haywood will make their home in Gainesville, Ga. They have our best wishes for a long and happy-life. OBITUARY The passing Sister Matilda Brewer from these "Halls of Time" leaves the most noticeable vacancy that Hill's First Baptist Church has had in many years. There is a large number of persons among us who, in view of the im- THE ATHENS REPUBLIQUE practicableness of religion as seen by the Negro, have lost faith in his demonstrations along this line; but no matter how eccentric or odd an Athens Christian believer might be, he had perfect faith in any exhibition of religion made by Sister Brewer. She went to Heaven, or to that place where they tell me we will all abide until Gabriel places one foot upon dryland and the other upon the sea and sounds with his immortal trumpet the final recall to study war no more. In that day we can see him as he orders the infantry to "Stack arms' and disband, the calvary ride up and are ordered to dismount, unsaddle, and unbridle their horses and give them to that little child who shall lead them, the cannoniers are ordered to disengage the breach blocks of their cannons so that they become as harmless as the great oaks of the forests about them. The aviators are ordered to descend and park their machines. The sailors are ordered to desert the ships and commit them to the waves. Then we see the Savior Himself standing in the midst of this great miscellaneous multitude, no longer generals and captains, no longer the rich and the poor, but the children of one Lord and Christ. As those on the Master's right hand start on their upward and triumphant march to glory we see Sister Brewer moving up that royal way with all the other elect- The Christian Workers Club of Hill's First Baptist Church would be delighted to have new members. We meet every Wednesday after at the home of of Mrs. Wm. Few yf 1375 Hancock Ave. You are welcome. RUBY LOUIS BROWN, Pres. Mrs. R. S. Jones and son M. H. Jones of Atlanta, were in the city last week to witness the marriage of Miss Ruth Murden. Mrs. Seleta Payne, of Jacksonville Fla., and her two children, Naomi Grace and Sybil Elizabeth, came to the city to see their friend Miss Ruth ushered info the bonds of matrimony. Mrs. Maggie Arkins, of 1529 West Broad street, is on the sick list. The mission ladies are charged to remember their trusts. 3 We were pained to learn that Deacon Sanford Stephens, of Hill's First Baptist Church, was seriously injured in a collusion of the Central and Georgia railway trains. We pray that he will return to usefulness again soon. Mesdames D. M. Hawkins, Carrie Davis, Irene Jones and Miss Laura Eberhardt were joint hostesses at a grand picnic at Center., Ga., given by the Progressive Pathfinders on Friday June 6th. This club is composed of young girls and boys under the leadership of Mrs. Irene Jones whose delight is to work and pleasure young people. The members of this club should be very loyal to their club and loving to their leader. They report one of the Grandest times ever had. Mrs. W. H. Harris, Misses Roberta Woods and A. M. Hiram, and Mr. T. W. Harris motored to Jacksonville last week to visit Mr. and Mrs. D. P. Young. They were joined in that city by Miss Marie Harris, sister of Mrs. Young who had just left Howard University, Washington, D. C., where she is a student. Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Alexander, Miss Lula Saggus, and Mr. Howard Brewer motored to Atlanta Sunday to visit Mrs. Alexander's baby sister who died shortly after their arrival. Our sympathy goes out to the bereaved family. Deacon Frank Hawkins, of Ebenezer Baptist, left the city sometime ago for Philadelphia, where he is now employed. BONES BROUGHT AND BONES CARRIED A certain girl on S. Rockspring is always smiling at a certain boy works at Holman Building. Two certain girls of S. Rockspring Stare pulling straws at a certain boy works at Athens Shoe Co. We wonder which one is going to land here. Miss N. M. B., of Reese street, has at last found out who the guy is who has taken such a delight in running her name through the Republique every week. She says that she hopes he will get some pleasure out of it, and is sorry that she cannot reciprocate. Who's heart will be aching next week when their their Sweetie (J. S.) land in New York. The folks gave a party for a girl going some place but I think she meant for him. Well (J. S.) must be a "Sheik": too many crying about him: another fair maiden of 150 Cohen St. 243 Reese St. tried to cry too but for what reason they did not say goodbye. Guess who lives on 242 Glenn Ave. Greets every one she meets with a sweet smile. Guess what girl living on 1353 Hancock Ave., is worrying because Mr. J. S has left town. A certain girl living on West Hancock is running wild over Mr. R. S. Why Mr. Gray of W. Hancock Ave. fell ao hard for a certain young lady ask (Frank Ray) he knows. And so Chase street got frightened off! Poor fellow! "Destroy" Michigan destroyed his foundation and he did the next best thing-beat it! Good bye Chase street. Luck to you. When get all right-write to us. Mr. J. B. of Rock Spring, who thought he would be successful in caging a little Commerce belle and missed, it is now making eyes at Miss Addie Willoughby. There are two little Misses on Franklin and away out W Broad st., respectively who think they are the go of the town, but some of the other mademoiselles say that they are going to show them a few things. Guess who on Harris street is running wild over one from "Destroy Mich." Miss 500 block Reese, street mamma has given Mr. Flint street a walking ticket. Guess what about, Ha! Ha! Guess who on West Broad street near Rockspring street thinks he is the shiek and can monopolize any fair damsel's time. He can sheik some damsel some of he time, some damsel all the time, but not all damsels at the same time. --- THE ATHENS REPUBLIQUE Widowers and aspirants, awake! Around the loop somewhere between Third and Fourth streets, and not far from a little green store and the overhead bridge you will find a cozy home and big Hudson car.
