Put ZING!
Ellaville, Ga., March 17—Miss
Beryl Tondee of Ellaville and Ma
con' became the bride of Ernest
Shepherd of Unadilla on March 12
at a ceremony at the home of the 1
bride’s uncle and aunt, Mr. and !
Mrs. E. L. Snider, with Rev. E. M.
Palmer officiating.
An altar banked with white
gladioli and greenery formed a
background for the ceremony. The
nuptial music was presented by j
Mrs. E. C. Mauldin, pianist, and
Miss Faye Snider, cousin of the
bride, who sang "Because” and
"Ah Sweet Mystery of Life.” Dur
ing the ceremony ‘To a Wild
Rose" was played softly and at the |
conclusion the Lord’s Prayer was j
sung.
The bride’s only attendant was I
her sister, Mrs. Cecil Mayes of Con- I
yers. Ernest Shepherd was his ;
eon’s best man. ,
The bride entered with her !
uncle, R. L. Snider, by whom she
was given in marriage. She eho$e
for her wedding a dress of powder
blue crepe with navy accessories.
She carried a white satin prayer
book topped with a purple
throated orchid.
Immediately following the cere
mony, Mr. and Mrs. Snider enter
tained with a reception. Assisting
in serving were Mrs. L. S. Tondee,
Mrs. W. B. Souter, Mrs. Luther
Justice, Mrs. Charles Jones, Mrs.
C. S. Gurr, Mrs. Bobby Rigsby, ana
Mrs. Marcene Ellis. Miss Faye Sni
der kept the bride’s book.
During the afternoon, Mr. and
Mrs. Shepherd left for a wedding
trip to Florida.
Fortunately, most dealers in
Taylor county are stocking suit- ,
able materials for use in the con- j
Irol of diseases and insects in
home gardens this year, County !
Agent R. L. Coleman said this J
week. However, it would be wise
to consult your local dealer now to
let him know your needs for the
season and determine What ma
terials he can supply.
Rotenone, which is non-poison-
ousand safe to use on parts of
vegetables to be eaten, is more
plentiful now than during the war J
period, County Agent Coleman
said. Mixed rotenone dust should
contain at least .75 percent and one
percent is better for some insects
that are hard to kill. It can be
combined with other materials for
insect control and the basic cop
pers for disease control.
Cryolite is an effective material
for the control of many chewing
insects and bean beetles, he con
tinued. It is very effective against
tomato fruit worms, cabbage
worms and blister beetles. Cryolite
is safer to use than arsenical poi
sons but it should not be used on
corn or with lime.
Sabadilla dust, a new material,
has been introduced especially for
the control of the Harlequin col-
lard bug, squash bug and other
insects, Mr. Coleman pointed out,
and sulphur is still used in some
commercial dusts, especially for
the control of bean beetles. How
ever, sulphur is injurious to vine
crops, tomatoes, eggplants and some
other vegetables under certain
weather conditions.
McRae, March 17—A history
painted with colorful events of
Georgia’s Telfair County, will be
published soon.
The history, which is to touch on
every family in the county, has
been written by Mrs. Will Mann. It
is being typewritten and readied
for publication.
A native of South Carolina, Mrs.
Mann is married to a McRae law
yer, who is a native of Telfair.
Publication of the book—The His
tory of Telfair County—should 1
come in about the next two
months, Mrs. Mann said.
Mrs. Mann has worked on her
The book will cover events up to ■
1949 and will touch briefly on Tel- j
fair county’s contributions to vie- j
tory in World War II.
And of course, no Telfair history
would be near complete without a
leading family—The Talmadges.
There is a proud feeling through
out its boundaries that Telfair be
longs to the Talmadges and they
belong to it.
Somebody wants to know’ our
opinion of the economic situation.
We wish we knew. If we did, life
would soon be simple for us, at
least.

Attorney General and
State Treasurer Probable
Gubernatorial Candidates
State Beauty Pageant
Again Set in Columbus
Atlanta, March 18—Attorney Gen
eral Eugene Cook set out today to
ward a probable bid for governor
in 1950.
He all but announced his candi
dacy after an open-two-fisted at
tack last night on Gov. Herman
Talmadge’s legislative program.
Speaking before a Good Govern
ment League in Macon, Cook la
beled the new voter re-registration 1
act, Talmadge’s pet bill, a “legal
monstrosity.”
Attacking other actions of the
Ta mauge - dominated assembly,
Cook outlined his probable cam
paign issues in the Democratic pri
mary next year.
The attorney general and former
revenue commissioner said today
h, ?,"iady has received many re
quests to make the race, with
pledges of support.
'1 am seriously considering it,”
he said. "I do not expect to an
nounce a final decision until I see
definitely how the people feel.”
The name of B E. Thrasher, Jr.,
State Auditor, was
political ring when
Walter Harrison of
address at Macon
urged Mr. Thiasher’s candidacy for
Governor.
In a speech to the Young People’s
League for Better Government the
Millen mayor blasted both the
Talmadge and Thompson forces
and urged that “we get rid of these
peanut politicians and get us a new
horse.”
Thrasher, the veteran state leg
islator said, “wears no man’s col
ors and it lookedup to as a good
administrative officer.”
Before the closing date for the
next gubernatorial primary there
may possibly be at least three
prominent Georgians in the race.
Columbus, Ga., March 17—Geor
gia’s prettiest girls again will turn
toward Columbus this summer for
a go at the title "Miss Georgia.”
As they have done for four years
previously, the girls will put tal
ent against talent, and charm
against charm in competition which
will offer valuable awards to the
winner plus a trip to Atlantic City,
N. J., for a chance at "Miss Ameri
ca.”

Condemned Man Seen
As "Great" Preacher
Reidsville. — A religious group
from his home section of Ander
son, S. C., says George Solesbee is
destined to become one of the
gn ’est oreachers since St. Paul.
His attorneys from Augusta, say
So, _,ee is insane, and they are
going to appeal to the U. S. Su
preme court to save him from
death in the Georgia electric
chair.
Law enforcement officers say he
killed Sam Mason, killed his baby
and killed Buel Webster.
The Georgia Supreme Court has
just denied Solesbee’s latest at
tempt to escape the death sentence
for the South Georgia swamp
slaying of Webster.
Solesbee, himself—a long-time
occupant of the death cell in the
Georgia State Prison near here—
is continuing his “study to be a
minister,” confident that he won’t
be executed “because I am inno
cent.”
“Death in the electric chair is
not my destiny,” said Solesbee
when informed of the State Su
preme Court’s refusal to grant his
lawyers a jury trial to prove he has
become insane since his imprison
ment.
Come in and see "The Car Designed With YOU in Mind’
I t’s brand-new ... so new that there aren’t many
on the streets yet. But already it’s a tremendous
success. And it’s easy enough to see why.
Everybody wants a smart,, good-looking modern
car. But most of us don’t want to pay a penalty for
being modern. We want more room . .. more comfort
... more visibility.. . not less.
That’s where De Soto scores. It’s got those long,
low lines. But you don’t have to wriggle into it. It
has big wide doors. Plenty of headroom, too. The
roof won’t scrape your hat, no matter where you
sit. It’s roomier than ever.
It’s no use having bigger windows and windshields
unless you can see out of them. In the new De Soto
you can . . . because you’re sitting on chair-high
seats. Even a short person can see over the steering
wheel. Even a six-footer won’t hit his knees on it.
You don’t have to enlarge your garage to hold the
new De Soto. You can still change a tire yourself.
And a dent in the fender doesn’t mean an expensive
body repair job. Come in and see this wonderful car
that lets you drive without shifting. Compare it with
any other at any price. Then decide.
