Because my said wards are now / at an age w i r itisn. i s.-aiy t/» -end • ih.in to a bet'er ' -h -''. than is ac cessible to us while residing on said lands. (c.) B?cau-:? hired labor is scarce and high, and hard to obtain, and therefore I am n .t. able to operate said farm with hired labor at a . V good profit. p id.) I, myself, individually own th undivided two-thirds (2-3) of the plantation and lands above describbed, in which plantation and lands my said ards own the other undivided one- third (1-3,) and the entire plate can now be sold to said Dodd and White at and for the sum of seve^t.y-fLvebun dred dollars ($7,500.00.) thus yielding to my said wards twenty-five .hundred dollars ($2,500.00) for their one-third (1-3) interest, and five thousand dol lars ($5,000.00) to m- for my two- thirds (2-3) interest, which Is an ad vantageous trade both for m? and my said wards, because 1 can re-i n vest my money in a home for myself and chil dren near a goad school and can re invest the Twenty-five Hundred dol lars ($2,500.00) belonging to my said wards from the proceeds of said sale by loaning the same out on good se- urlty, bearing interest at the rate of ight per cent, per annum, which will fford a larger ajjd surer Income for my said wards than could be ob tained from the rental of said lands. A copy of my said petition, duly 'rifled by myself, will be served per sonally upon each of my said wards and 'Upon their next of kin, as re quired by law, at least ten days before the time for th? hearing of said ap plication.

One of the most interesting school entertainments of the year was given by the school at Full wood Springs last Friday evening, the success of which is due largely to our popul teacher, Miss Beltie L. Reynolds, for her practical training and efficient management during the term which closed with the exercises. After the usual order of such ent rtalnments was over, and which consisted of beautiful recitations, amusing dia logues, etc., Col. J. E. Lovvorn was introduced to *the audience and de livered an interesting address in the interest of practical education which was attentively listened to and evi dently enjoyed by all present. At the close of the exercises a box supper was given by the ladies of the com munity, from the sale of which, to gether with the door receipts, the neat sum of $21.35 was realized,which will he used for making some' needed repairs on the school building and to start a school library. The entire program was carried out in a most pleasing manner, which re flects credit upon both teacher and pupils. All in all, it was a most, en joyable as well as profitable occasion, which we hope to see repeated an nually. J. R. P. CEDARTOWN WINS Hall Game in Home, and Makes Good Showing in Debate. The school contest in Rome laol Friday had two events of Interest and merit. At the ball game In the after noon the Cedartown High ^hool team kmud up t.it i.i.I City boys to the tune of 12 to 2. The Rome youths jint e .uldn’t get on to Houseal’s curves, and they struck out in quick 1 2 order. Our line-up was as follows: Win.

Fielder, left field; Joe Liddell, center field; Harold Hutchens, right field; John Hightqwi r, substitute. The debate at night resulted in a victory for Rome, the judges standing two to one In favor of the local rep resentatives. The subject was, “Re solved, That Cuba should be annexed by the United States.” Messrs. 1 light, Jones and Montgomery, of Rome, had the affirmative, and three of our bright High School boys Messrs.Wal ler Boo/.. Featherston Bunn and Wm. Houseal- championed the negative. The Romans showed excellent elocu tionary training, which our boys for some reason had not received, hut Hie Cedartown representatives showed a depth of thought and study and a logical presentation of ideas that was most gratifying to their friends.

Dear Sir: Take a two-story house and reckon the costs with different paints; you will be surprised. Say the house 1ms a total of 3210 square feet. Divide by 300; you buy 11 gallons. That’s the rule; but it never comes- out so. Buy anyother paint that Devoe, yon will have to buy more, up to possibly 22gallons. Paint Devoe, and you'll have a gallon or two to return. Here are some experiences. N. R. Watkins, Lott, Texas, used 13 gallons on his house before; bought 13 gallons Devoe for same house and had 6 left. C. B.Edwards, of Edwards & Brough-* ton, printers, Raleigh, N. C., used 30 gallons paste paint, on his house; bought 30 gallons Devoe for same house and had 16 left.
