JAIL TOO COLD;
DIDN'T LIKE IT;
SO HE JUST LEFT
Philadelphia, Nov. 13.—“The jail
was too cold, and 1 just refused
stand for a condition like that. M
That is what Frederick R. Mar
lin, 40, told Policeman Crooks
when he surrendered yesterday
afternoon and handed him a six
inch lock as evidence that he had
escaped from the Langhome, Pa.,
jail.
tt You see, it’s this way, officer, tt
he explained, after asking to be
re-arrested. U I was pinched early
this morning, after I was in an
automobile accident in the Lincoln
highway between Parkland and
Langhorne. They took me to the
Langhorne jail.
Couldn’t Sleep.
But it was too cold to sleep.
When I yelled a couple of times
for the turnkey and he failed to
answer, It made me sore. I looked
around the cell and found an iron
bar.
it I used the bar to rip this lock
off the cell door. Then I shoved
the lock in my pocket and started
to look for the jailer. I was go
ing to make him turn on the heat.
But I couldn’t find anybody any
where around the place, - so I fig
ured the next best thing to do
was to walk down to Philadelphia
and explain the situation. t f

SPLENDID TALK
MADE THURSDAY
BY DR. SHELTON
(By MRS. L. C. WARREN)
The Woman’s Club, at its reg
ular meeting, Thursday, Novem
ber 13, was delighted by the elo
quent address of Dr. W. A. Shel
ton, of Emory University, who
spoke on “Our World.’’ Dr. Shel
ton formerly lived in Griffin.
With the rare tact of but few
great speakers, Dr. Shelton’s per
sonality establishes a point of
happy contact for every individ
ual hearer and his eager enhusi
asms on all themes worthy of dis
cussion make listening a delight.
With the deft skill of a wonder
ful word painter, he portrayed
the apparent insignificance of this
world about us and then revealed
its supremacy and the marvels
of its master-man.
tt Truly the end. of times is
near,” he said. The first end,
for the world is young and man
kind but in the beginning of
own development of the resources
and possibilities lying dormant in
science, story and art. M
tt The one new thing that has
never been before is the enfran
chisement of woman, a place
unique in the world’s history,” he
said, and then with startling
clearness he revealed the great
ness of that trust and the obliga
tion of that opportunity to home,
community and country.

ed us to make the second picture,
which we are now showing in the
Caroiinas and western states. We
believe we have in our agricul
tural situation something that is
saleable to the outside farmers,
and something that is better for
farmers in other states than any
thing they have, everything con
sidered.
a We are already in touch with
at least 200 farmers who tell us
they want to purchase property in
this county. This is a result of
our week's showing of the picture
in North Carolina. tt
■ In this connection, the following
clipping from the Atlanta Journal
chows the effect of Colquitt coun
ty’s campaign in Iowa:
Crops Amaze Iowa Farmers.
Moultrie, Ga., Nov. 14.—J. C.
Tucker, Iowa farmer, who has
been in Moultrie for several days
investigating conditions in this
section with a view of moving to
southwest Georgia, declares that
he ’ was “amazed to learn of the
wide variety of crops that can
be grown here, of the long grow
ing season and of the progress
that has been made in the past
20 years.
Raise Anything.
Mr. Tucker declared southwest
Georgia can it raise everything
that Iowa can and grow many
other things that we can’t. South
west Georgia’s situation from a
producing standpoint seems al
most ideal. I never could have
believed there was any section so
well adapted to general farming
as Colquitt county. This section
has the advantage over the west
in every way—long season, won
derful climate, cheap land, mar
kets for almost every farm pro
duct, good schools afid churches. tt
Houses Needed.
Mr. Tucker said that, accord
ing to his opinion the one big
fault with southwest Georgia is
its lack of farm houses. Land
owners will have to put up fairly
good houses before western farm
ers will want to buy, he declared.
FAYETTE COUNTY MAN

Homer Jones, of Fayette coun
ty, who was arrested late yester
day by Sheriff Freeman and
