The Fayetteville News. February 22, 1907
Sabbath school was well attended at Oak Grove last Sunday; We are glad to know 
that more of our older people are attending -- parents should go with their 
children.

Bro. Martin, of Senoia, preached a most able sermon at Glen Grove last Saturday 
from 2 Tim., 1:8: "Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord."

A sabbath school was organized here this week with R. L. Arnold superintendent, 
Caspar Arnold secretary, Isaac Whatley chorister, Miss Sudie Arnold, organist.  
The prospects are good for a most interesting Sunday school.  Teachers will be 
appointed next Sunday.

The public school is again well attended this pleasant weather.  The assistant 
teacher, Miss Louvale Brown, was not able to be in school last Friday on 
account of an attack of lagrippe.

The "Union Meeting" at Ebenezer last week was well attended.  The people were 
disappointed in not hearing the state lecturers but were entertained by Oscar 
Gray, of Coweta, and Messrs. Graham and Dixon, from Fayetteville.  Our able 
commissioner sounded the keynote when he said "educate our boys and girls and 
have them apply their learning when they farm."

Ebenezer school has taken another step forward in the educational line -- their 
building is being furnished with patent desks. Every school should have them.  
This speaks well for the teacher, Miss Mamie Burks.
