WINDER ICE PLANT
WILL BE RUNNING
AT AN EARLY DATE
Winder lias anew enterprise in the
Barrow County Ice & Coal Company.
The new plant has been completed and
will be ready for the manufacture of
ice in a few days. We hope our citizens
will visit this plant on Candler street
and see how well fixed up they are for
business. Every citizen should feel
interested in this new enterprise. It
means more business for our city. It
means employment for our citizens. It
means keeping our money right here
in Winder so that all of us can get the
benefit of it. Wp feel sure that our
people will let no outside concern come
in and run this enterprise that has
been built by Winder men with Winder
money out of business. Winder needs
new enterprises and the way to get
them is to support them when they
set up in our midst.
We congratulate Messrs. Thompson,
Smith and Harris on their enterprise
and bespeak for them the united sup
port of our people.
CAMP FIRE GIRLS
HAVE ORGANIZED
On Wednesday afternoon at five
o’clock at Mrs. P. S. Roberts, the girls
met and organized u Camp Fire utrts
organization. Many people do not un
derstand tuts organization at ail, so
just a tew expiauauous.
The fundamental idea of the Camp
Fire is to tosier tne personal relations
of mother to her daughters, to culti
vate tne closest intimacy between them,
and to magnify the home as tne center
of their relations. The program of the
Camp Fire Girls emphasize the dignity
or work, the necessity of keeping good
Health and the spirit of comradesnip,
ail of these as u condition of happi
ness.
its ideals are expressed in its watch
word, “Wo —He —Lo,” which is deriv
ed from the three words which embody
the fundamental prinqfciies or its teach
ing—Work —Health——Love.
Its law opens seven roads leading
down long vistas of endeavor and op
portunity towards the goal of balanced,
efficient young womautiood: Seek beau
ty ; Give Service; Pursue Knowledge;
Be Trustworthy; Hold on to Health;
Be Happy.
Under .its seven crafts, home, health,
camp, hand, nature, love, business and
citizenships nearly 1,000 specific sug
gestions are tabulated, each opening
aoiue avenue of helpful endeavor for
girls.
The lwsis of the Camp Fire honor
system is appreciation. Its honors are
given for the simple and modest work
of daily life actually accomplished and
their wide selection stirs the imagina
tion and develops originality. Every
honor achieved means an added bead of
color according to the particular craft.
Camp Fire aims to develop the home
spirit and make it dominate the life
of tlie entire community. It uses beau
tiful ceremonies, and bases rank and
honor upon personal attainment. It
interprets the things of daily life in
terms of poetry, symbolism, color and
imagination.
To sum up, the Camp Fire is an or
ganization ior finding the romance, the
beauty and the adventure in every ..ay
life. It 'makes the homely task con
tribute to the joy of living.
Now, you have an idea of what we
stand for, and we are ready to serve
you at any time, in anything we can.
The charter members and officers are
as follows: Margaret Walker, presi
dent ; Rounette Benton, secretary;
Sara Joe Roberts, treasurer; Frances
Hubbard, sergeant at arms; Alice Dunn,
Willie Mae Autry, Helen McWhorter,
Gladys Eavenson, Gertrude Mott, Mary
Quartermau.
Mrs. P. S. Roberts is our guardian.
We meet every Tuesday afternoon at
5 o’clock, and we meet next Tuesday
with Mrs. Roberts.
Edith E. House and Nettie Bagwell
were selected as the other two complete
our number of twelve. As we grow ol
der we will increase in number. These
two were unanimously elected. Watch
us work and progress. We are working
on our first honor of keeping our own
rooms for one month now.

THE HIRAM NIXON
RAINEY WILL CASE
* hie of the most interesting cases in
tlie history of Harrow county was set
tled last week when the contest he-.'
tween the executors of the wills of Hi- :
ram N. Rainey, Sr., and H. N. Rain- *
ey, Jr., was settled by compromise. '
The following history of the case,
will prove interesting reading to our
readers. i
A number of years ago Rev. Ilham N. j
Rainey, a prominent Baptist clergyman,
died leaving a will conveying his prop
erty to his son, H. N. Rainey, Jr. and
to his children. In this will Judge (}.
<l. Robinson, of Lawrenceville and Col.
\V. H. Quurterman, of Winder, were
named as executors. In the meantime
after the elder Rainey's death his sou
administered the estate. He died a
few months ngo in Atlanta, and left a
will which was set up, leaving all his
property to liis wife and two children,
Nick and Mattie Louise. Mayor George
X. Bagwell, of this city, and Mrs. H. N.
Rainey are numed as executors in this
will. A short while ago this case was
decided in the ordinary’s court of this
county, and the original will of the
senior Rainey was set up.
The case was brought to the supe
rior court. Some of the leading law
yers in the state were engaged by the
two sets of executors, among them be
ing Col. Reuben Arnold, of Atlanta;
Ross & Koss, of this city; Col. Lewis
Russo 11, Judge I. L. Oakes, of laiw
reneeville; Col. Thomas J. Hhaekelford,
of Athens.
Numbers of witnesses had been sub
poenaed on both sides and a great deal,
of feeling was manifested. Tuesday af
ternoon the counsel for both sid*s met,
and a compromise agreed upon by
which Mr. Bagwell and Mrs. Rainey
were to act as executors and wind up
the estate.
Under the agreement Mrs. Rainey
is to get one-sixth of the elder Rainey's
estate and her two step children five
sixths. Mrs. Rainey and Executor
George Bagwell are to pay all* court
costs. •
The estate of Rev. Hiram Rainey
did not turn out anything like what he
was reputed to be worth, the assets to
taling $.‘{40,000.00.
Judge Robinson and Attorney Quar
terrnan, the executors of the elder
Rainey’s estate, were paid a substantial
sum.
FEDERATION OF
CHURCH CLUBS.
A meeting of representatives from
the men's clubs of the Methodist, Bap
tist, Christian and Presbyterian church
es of the city was held Tuesday even
ing looking to the formation of a Fed
eration of church clubs. There wero
present Rev. L. W. Collins, Rev. VV. H„
Faust, Messrs. Paul Brooksher, J. W.

Winder Post American
Legion To Present A
Minstrel Friday Night
The people of Winder and vicinity
will lmve the opportunity on Friday
night of this week of witnessing one
of tin* best minstrel revues ever seen
here. It will lie the “Jazzland Minstrel
Revue,” and will be put on under the
auspices of the local post of the Amer
ican Legion.
“Before a large and attentive audi
ence, the “Jazzland Minstrel Revue”
was presented by the local post of the
American Legion at Brenau Audito
rium last Friday night, making the
biggest hit of any minstrel introducing
local talent ever presented there.
It was' excellent from beginning to
end, and the audience was kept in a
continual uproar of applause. The
show opencil with the members of the
colony sitting around the stage in ex
cellent style and a number of popular
songs were sung by end men and cho
rus. Y
The Quartette continued the splen
did performance by some fine songs.
The interlocutor presented some excel
lent talks by a Sunny Son of Italy and
also sang ’’<) Sole Mio” in Italian,
which was excellent.
The H.vpordermie four made a big hit.
Their string instruments, together with
their quartette, and the yeodling of
Whelebel, were given a big hand.
Mr. Ed Zoeller was another big bit
of the evening when he performed the
role of n Jew and ‘pulled some good
ones' together with Mr. Hooy.”
A great audience from Winder and
vicinity will hear these minstrels to
morrow (Friday) night.
Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Wooten left last
Saturday to make their home in Cin
cinnati, Ohio. Their many friends in
this city regret to see them leave. We
hope they will' be happy and prosper
ous in their new home.
