THE STANDARD MILLS WILL INCREASE ITS CAPACITY 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 mill already has twenty-five of these machines In operation, making this an inoreasn ol twenty percent. Mr. Wm.

The Standard Mills have only been In operation about three months and have been highly successful from the start. Messrs.

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 everybody feel better—and should make lots of folks teel like paying up what they owe The Standard. “NAME ON EVERY PIECE.” LOWNEY'S Chocolate Bonbons, VOR SALE BY «T- O.
