THE STANDARD MILLS

TWENTY PEB CENT.
Mnuhincry Will Bo Delivered Tills
Month for This Largo Increase.
Cedartown is to have another tan
gible evidence that cotton manufac
turing Is a pnylng Investment here.
The new Standard Mills have
found their enterprise so profitable
that they are arranging for a sub
stantial enlargement, which will
doubtless be followed by others in
the near future.
The enterprising management have
recently contracted for live new
carding machines to be delivered
this month. The mill already has
twenty-five of these machines In
operation, making this an inoreasn
ol twenty percent.
Mr. Wm. Parker, the successful
vice-president and general manager,
does not regard the colton industry
us dependent upon the election or
either Bryan or McKinley, and his
company has no hesitation in ar
ranging for increased capacity In ad
vance of the national election.
The Standard Mills have only
been In operation about three months
and have been highly successful
from the start.
Messrs. Parker und Birkbeck are
to be congratulated on the success of
their enterprise, which Cedartown
hopps will continue to prosper, and
that many additional enlargements
will he necessitated by the demands
of their growing business.

Quarters—Mr. Daniel Dough's
Handsome Itcnicmbrancc,
The Cherokee Club, the social or

The Club rooms embrace the en

Just before his return to Philadel

ments to the treasurer, Mr. J.
Wright Adamson, and this substan
tial donation will help to augment
,the fund for Improvements in tho

tangible shape in his generous re
membrance of the Club.
The Cherokee Club Is now in ex
cellent financial condition, and with
Its splendid aud handsome new
home, Its opportunities for pleasure
and profit to its members will be
measurably augmented.
\The Club unanimously decided to
move Into its ndw quarters, which
it how holds under a ten-year lease.

A CARD FROM Mil. DODDS.
There are many who, doubtless, are
the best of friends to the Telephone
Exchange and are doing all we ask of
them to assist in building it up.
It is a home enterprise, and all
should be willing to do as much.
There are others—a great many
others—who contribute nothing, but
are, if possible, more friendly to the
telephone, mid even go so far as to
show their affection for the little in
strument by standing by it dnily al
most from morning till night, testing
it occasionally, of course, for fear that
it will forget how to talk for them.
These, wo believe, would contribute
a small mite occasionally if they only
had an opportunity, nnd now arrange
ments have been made to accommodate
them.
At E. Bradford’s Drug Store can be
found a publio telephone—a pay sta
tion,—and hereafter all non-sub
scribers can get connection there by
placing a dime in the slot. Connec
tions will positively be refused to non
subscribers over the Benedict and
Fuljwood lines until they have paid or
made arrangements for same.
Non-subscribers will please take due
notice and think a little before asking
tile operator to violate this rule, as it
is embarrassing to her, besides she will
be held responsible for same.
Tile C. II. & A. is strictly a toll line,
and is now ready for service to
Young’s and Shades, and 1 we hope to
be able to talk with Bockmart and
Aragon very soon.
Subscribers cun make arrangements
by the week, if they prefer to use
their own 'phones over this line.
Others can be accommodated only
from tile public ’phone or Pay Station
at the above named place.
J.A. Dodos, Manager.
Times have been light for several
years, but 10-eent cotton makes
