New llce Age
Coming Soon.
Ithaca, N. Y., Oct. 7.—Profes
sor Nathaniel Smith, of Cornell,
is authority for the statement that
a new ic» age is coming soon to
the old world. ‘“We are now in
an interglacial period,” he declared
in a lecture before the history de
partment, ‘*‘and in the future the
huoman race will have to use all its
‘knowledge in anotder fight for its
life against the encroaching ice.
i ‘] wish to call attention to the
recent discoveries in Switzerland
of four distinet periods of glacia
tion,” he continued, “‘and to the
fact that there are proofs in Kans
‘as of the same four periods. This
is important because it proves the
eontemporaneousness of the gla
clal age in both hemispheres.

It s likely that we shall again
bave the usual erop of “*big hog,”
stories when December rolls
around. Until we learn that it
takes three times as much feed to
mwmeke 8 pound of gain in weight
on 8 bog weighing over 300 pounds
as it does on one weighing 100
pounds, these stories will continue,
They are simply an evidence of
our ignorance regarding economi
cal pork production, instead of
somethiny that anyone should be
proud of. No hog kept for pork
production should live longer than
one year or weigh over 300 pound-,

Layiog of Corner Stone,
First Baptist Charch
The ceremony of laying the
corner stone took place Tuesday
afternoon, Oct., 31, at 3:30 in
front of the new building of the
First Baptist Church.
Pastor Thomas M. Calloway
acted as master of ceremonies.
The hymnn, ‘“‘How firm a foun
dation ye Saints of the Lord,”
was sung, after which the pastor
read appropriate scripture pas
sagesand led the congregation in
prayer. Hethen gave a brief ac
count of the building enterprise
from its inception, and set forth
the purpose in view in its erec
tion for the glory of Godand the
blessing of this Community.
Mr. L. Kennedy, one of the
deacons and also member of the
building Committee gave an in
teresting sketch of the history
of the Church from its organiza
tion in the early days of the col
cny. The Congregation first
worshiped in a ‘‘shack’’ on West
Pine St. This soon gave way to
the present old building which in
course of time was removed to
the corner of South Main and
Magnolia just across the street
from where;the new building now
stands.
It took about three months for
this removal the congregation
during this time worshipping in
the building wherever it chan
ced to be on a Sunday during its
nomadic journey.- It was finally
moved over to its present loca
tion, just back of the new build
ing.
The church was organized with
about 30 memb.rs. It now has
a membership of nearly 500.
Mr. C. B. Teal, a member of
the building Committee spoke on
the subject: ““What it means to
build a Church. He strikingly
set both some of the trials and
difficulties of the committee, as
well as the he'pful lessons learned
by the experience, and the deep
appreciation of thed ommittee and
the church for all who had given
sympathy and help in the work.
The different ministers of the
city had been invited to be pres
sent and participate in the aus
picious occasion.
Rev. Mr. Leichliter. of the
United Brethern Church and
Rev. Mr. Hammond of the Chris
tian Church were present and
responded in happy speeches of
congratulations and good wishes.
. Deposits of small coins, cove
nants of the church, minutes of
Little River Association, histor
ical sketch of the church and of
the new building, with other
things made, after which the
tablets were placed in the corn
er of the building. ‘I love thy
Kingdom, Lord’”’ was sung as
‘the closing hymnn.
1 The building will be comlpeted
'within a short time.
The first service will probably
be held the first Sunday in Nov
ember which time the church
expects to have an eventful day.
Itis probable that a special meet
ing will be held following this
day of entrance into the new
houseof worship.

Connor Looking ‘
For 5,000 Acres
Atlanta, Oct. 7 —ls there any
one in Georgia who has from
5,000 to 10,000 acres of land in a
body, suitable for a colony, that
he wishes to dispuse of?
Commissioner of Agriculture J.
J. Connor would like to get in
formation just now as to any
tracts of lands which may be
available, in order to enable him
to answer aninquiry which might
result in the location of about
100 industrious and hard-working
agricultural families in Georgia.
Parties interested in the loca
tion of this colony are consider
ing three southern states, and
they have written for informa
tion not to land agents but direct
to the state department of agri
culture. ;
““I havn’t the remotest idea”’
said Commissioner Connor,
“‘where there is in Georgia a tract
of 5,000 acres or more suitable
for such a purpose. It must, of
course, be good farm land, be
cause these people expect to go
to work at'once on the tract they
secure to make a living from it.
“‘lft here is anyone in the state
who has such a tract of land for
sale, anywhere from 5,000 to 10,-
000 acres, 1 would be glad to have
him write me a description of it
as soon as possible.”’
With Wedding Day Set |
Marry Ahead of Time
The following account of the
marriage of Miss Marie Johnson, '
from the Constitution of yester
dayv, will be of interest to her'
wide circle of friends in thiscity:
‘“Deciding not to wait until
their announced wedding day, a
happy young couple was joined
in marriage Saturday afternoon
in the Avalon apartments, on!
West Peachtree. |
“Fred Schaefer, a young man
from West Point, Ga, and Miss
Marie Johnson, of Atlanta, had‘
announced their wedding day as
November 6. All their friends
‘had been invited to attend the
'wedding in Talbotton, Ga., at
the home of the young lady’s
aunt,
Mr. Schaefer arrived in town
this week, however, and made
his plea. The result was that
they decided to wait no longer.
Dr. S. P. Higgins was called and
in the home of the bride’s father,
Charles Johnson, in the Avalon
apartments, the ceremony took
place quietly, and before many of
their friends knew anything
about it, the bride and grecom had
sped away on their honeymoon.”

King Cotton’s
Carnival Coming
Thousands of Little Circu
lars Being Scattered
Over the City.
That Fitzgerald is to be enter
tained with a real, live Carnival
seems very evident from the
many little colored circulars that
made their appearance yesterday.
So far as we know there has been
no advance agent of any Carni
val company in the city, and from
what we can learn from the city
authorities there has not been
granted a license for any Carni
val, still the fact remains that
there is going to be a Carnival
and that KING COTTON IS
COMING! Everybody is talking
about it and longinly awaiting
further particulars. Of course
this may be purely an advertis
ing stunt of some one, but if that
is the case it is certainly a clever
one. Since starting to write this
up an advertisement for this pa
per comes to us through the mail
with the necessary cash to run
it, and we reproduce it on page 5
of ‘this paper. This seems. to
cinch the fact that KING COT
TON IS COMING and that there
is going to be a CARNIVAL in
TOWN and further than that the
date is set—something doing
Esurely and we along with the rest
iof you will wait and see.
