Please do not wait for a collect
or, for none will be sent.
The big cotton mill will soon be
started.
Cartersville will grow right along
if you will let it.
Get busy on that railroad from
Rome to Gainesville.
Russia seems to lie awake nights
planning for trouble.
We need more factories and a
greater variety of products.
Democracy expects every voter
to do his duty on November 8.
The latest advices from the east
are that the Japs have taken Cas
toria.
Where, oh where are those terri
ble Cossacks of Don we used to
read about? *
You will have to search the state
with a microscope to find a county
in better condition than Bartow.
If Admiral Hotairsky goes to
butting into the British lionsky he
will very likely set his headsky
cr ckedsky.
Don’t forget to go to the polls on
November 8 and vote the demo
cratic ticket straight from top to
bottom.
All aboard for Pine Log, Fair
mount, Carters, and Spring Place!
Train leaved in four minutes from
tenth track!
Ex-Senator Hill went over into
Indiana the other day, and after a
careful survey of the situation, de
clared that it was his opinion that
that state would go democratic.
The Russians got in another of
their school boy freaks when they
shot up a few English fishing boats
la.->t Saturday. Russia seems to be
very much in need of a guardian
anyway.
The Cartersville Auxiliary of
the Home Missions extend a cor
dial invitation to all denominations
to attend, the meetings ot the Dis
trict Societies at v the Methodist
church..
And now comes Acworth and
says she wants anew county. The
iuca is to cut on strip from the
north side of Cobb and the south
side of Bartow and thus form a
new county with Acworth as the
capital.
Capt. J- J. Conner, vice president
of the State Fair Association is
doing excellent work for the suc
cess of the fair which is now in
progress at Macon. Capt. Conner
has teen enthusiastically devoted
to the work from the start and his
efforts have aided as much as any
man’s the success of the enterprise.
That Other Road.
The news that a movement has
been started to build a line of rail
road from Gainesville via Carters
ville to Rome should bring good
cheer to the citizens of this city.
The situation is one which natu
rally demands a road. The condi
tions, formed by nature and the
development of this region’s re
sources, have made the line from
Rome to Gainesville a necessity.
It will be built sooner or later, and
the people of Cartersville are vi-
tally interested in its construction
We should see to it that every
thing is done that we can do to
hasten and help the matter along.
We need this other new railroad in
our business. Let’s get out after
it.
A Pressing Need.
A pressing need just now in Car
tersvilie is more buildings for resi
dence purposes. Not necessarily
better buildings than now obtain
but more of them. Perhaps they
should be a cheaper rather than of
a costly class. There is.considera
ble vacant property within the city
limits which should be used for
this purpose. If this vacant land
were used for building purposes
the pressing need for homes would
be met to a large extent and the
appearance of the city would be
very greatly improved.
The News has spoken of this
matter before but it is so vital and
so important to the growth and ex
pansion of Cartersville that we
cannot refrain from again calling
attention to it. No town can grow
and acquire population unless that
population can obtain homes.
There is also need for modern
business buildings, Cartersville
needs a few buildings of the most
np-to date pattern. We have be
fore spoken of the need of a modern
hotel building, one which would
cost $75,000 to SIOO,OOO.
A commodious Masonic temple
and office building is another need
of the hour. Now is the time to
dress up t'a te sville. Let’s get
together and do about.
For White Primary.
There is considerable discussion
among the citizens of Cartersville
regarding a white primary for the
coming city election in January.
It is urged by those who favor
the movement that the white pri
mary will remove the objectionable
scramble from the municipal elec
tions and will make them much
more den t and orderly than can
be hoped for under the other con
ditions.
Othe-towns have tried the white
primary and have found them ex
tremely satisfactory, it is urged
'T am in favor,” said a well known
citizen in speaking of the matter,
“of doing just as they have done in
Atlanta and elsewhere. Call a mass
meeting and appoint an executive
committee to take the matter in
hand. Then hold the primary
about December ist, and use the
Australian ballot. Altanta does it,
and it works beautifully, and it is
the very thing we need in Carters
ville. I am for it, and I think a
majority of the people of Carters
ville are with me.”
Next to the proverbial shilling,
perhaps the smallest legacy has been
inherited by a native o-f New Zea
land. He had a son who died in
the Dutch Indies and left him his
effects, amounting to thirteen pence
| halfpenny. The money was payable
at Middleburg, and the man had to
walk ten Dutch leagues for it, los
* ing a day’s work. London An

SCOTT’S

Scott’s Emulsion is the
means of life and of the en
joyment of life of thousands of
men, women and children.
To the men Scott’s Emul
sion gives the flesh and
strength so necessary for the
cure of consumption and the
repairing of body losses from
any waiting disease.
For women Scott’l Emul
sion does this and more. It is
a most sustaining food and
tonic for the special trials that
women have to bear.
To children Scott’s Emul
sion gives food and strength
for growth of flesh and bone
and blood. For pale gMi
for thin and sickly boys Semes
Emulsion is a great help.

CONFIDENCE.
What a wonderful amount of meaning there
is in that one word CONFIDENCE. The
business of the world hinges upon it. It applies
to all walks of life, and the shoe business in
particular. We are proud to state that our
goods and methods are winning not only the
confidence blit the friendship of the people as
well.
If you want to test our reputation in this matter
try a pair of our Crossett or Hamilton-Brown
x
shoes that we have just received for the fall
and winter seasons. We won’t disappoint you.
