The Ellaville Sun Friday, July 15, 1938 No. 3 E.M. PALMER TO WRITE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Local Educator, Minister and Sunday School Teacher, to Conduct Feature E.M. Palmer, educator, minister and Sunday school teacher, today replaced the Rev. R.C. Howard as author of The Sun's weekly discussion of the international Sunday School lesson. Rev. Mr. Howard was forced to discontinue writing this feature because of the press of other duties. Mr. Palmer, superintendent of Ellaville consolidated schools for the past four years is well equipped to offer authoritative interpretations of the lesson. A talented writer, he has long employed wide research in preparing lectures to his bible class at Ellaville Baptist Sunday School. He is pastor of the Sumner Baptist Church. His first article appears on page four of today's issue. Rev. Mr. Howard, pastor of Ellaville Baptist Church, has supplied the feature each week since the paper was established a little more than a year ago and has earned wide praise for his work. MRS. HARDEMAN, HEALTH NURSE TO RESIDE HERE Succeeds Mrs. Alma Carlton Who Goes to North Georgia, Leaving a Fine Record Mrs. Margaret Hardeman has established residence here to succeed Mrs. Alma G. Carlton as consultant public health nurse with the state department for seven counties. Her territory will embrace Peach, Talbot, Marion, Crawford, Stewart and Schley counties. Mrs. Hardeman has received a high ranking for her work with the Irwinville resettlement, a rural rehabilitation project near Ocilla, during the past year. Mrs. Carlton, who resumed her work in North Georgia this week, reporting first to Harleson (Haralson?) county, accomplished much during her one-year stay here. The most outstanding achievement was her work with tubercular patients, several being sent to Alto sanitarium. Her program called for X-rays at a public health free clinic. The pictures were returned from the state department with instructions for treatment. Lack of funds and the necessity of overcoming family prejudices and ending contacts with patients required skillful planning in aiding needy sufferers. She is also credited with raising materially the standard of midwife work in the county. Mrs. Carlton served Stewart, Webster, Chattahoochee, Marion and Schley counties. MRS. SANDERS, 81, BURIED MONDAY Funeral services for Mrs. Cattie Sanders, 81, were conducted from Andersonville Methodist Church Monday afternoon. Mrs. Sanders died Sunday afternoon after an illness of only one day. A native of Macon county, Mrs. Sanders had lived practically all her life in Sumter County. Survivors include two sons, A.P. Sanders of Schley county and A.M. Sanders of Milledgeville; a daughter-in-law, Mrs. E.G. Sanders of Schley county and eight nephews.
