Garrard was the barbecue artist, and the stew and meats were as fine as ever tickled the palate of an epicure. It Is a matter of great gratification to our people that the Cedartown Rif les, who are Just winding up the third year of their enlistment, will continue lh the service for another three years. Most of the young men have re-en- llstod, and quite a number of others have Joined, giving the company Its full quota required by the national guard regulations. After the 'cue Friday evonlng the Rifles gave an excellent drill. They came out of the recent rigid lnspec tlon by the army officers with fly ing colors, and were favored with special complimentary mention in the official report.

Driving Club Scores a Good Record— I’ajrs All Expen cs and Delivers AII Premiums, The Fair management, has made good on every promise, and the 11)07 Hhow has scored a dist.net success. Although the Driving Club had lese than a month to pull off the fair, the success of the enterprise demonstrates the possibility of a musing county fair In which hundreds of our farm ers would actively co-operate with Cedartown's business men and com pete spiritedly for the varlouB pre miums offered for farm product*. The total Income from every source—gate and grand stand receipts, concessions by our business men In caBh anil merchandise.—foots up $1,- 583.10. A good showing for a two-day per formance! The business men responded nobly to the enterprise, donating $375 to the fair In cash and merchandise,with out which the fair would not have been a financial success. The receipts have been applied to the necessary expenses—gate keepers, policemen, watchmen, repairs on the buildings and the rare track, print ing and postage, premiums and other incidental expenses. Everybody has received their money or articles either for hlro or on premiums, and universal satisfaction Is heard on all sides as a result of the prompt way payments of premiums have been made by the club management. for any reason, anyone has been overlookd, the management desires such person to report promptly at the office of the secretary, Mr. F.
