BIG FORD SHOW
FOR ATLANTA
It has just been announced that an
immense exposition of industrial pow
er and equipment will be held in At
lanta, Ga., for three days from August
'29th to Hist inclusive.
According.to C. li. Jlott. local Ford
dealer, this show will completely de
stroy the fallacious idea that the Ford
son'Tractor is for farm uste’ only. In
stead it has become a tremendous pow
er in the industrial field and this great
exposition will show its manifold uses.
Explaining further Jlr. Jlott said
“by .being used for industrial purposes,
I mean this latest of Henry Ford's
inventions—the Fonlson tractor —is be
ing used to supplant expensive steam
power and horse power in building and
construction work, in lumber and coal
industries, etc.”
“For instance a large number of
manufacturers of road building equip
ment observing the ‘power and flexi
bility of the Fordson Tractor have built
their machinery to be used only with
this efficient power unit.
“Jlannfaeturers of hoists and winch
es got the idea and now the Fordson
is used for hoisting and operating con
crete mixers and other machinery used
in construction work:”
’“A Southern inventor has taken the
ordinary wheels off the Fordson, set
the power unit in a heavy framq, put
flanged wheels on it. connected them
with driving rods and made a locomo
tive out of it to he used in lumber, min
ing and construction operations.”
“This unusual feature of this expo
sition is that no admittance fee is
charged being free and open to the
public at all times.

MR D D JONES DEAD
PROMINENT CITIZEN
Jlr. D. I). Jones, of Jones Store, died
Saturday after an illness lusting sever
j til weeks.
Jlr. Jones was 55 years of age and
was one of Barrow's prominent far-j
tuers and good citizens.
Tlie funeral was held at •'impel Sun
day afternoon at four o’clock, conduct-
jed by Rev. Frank Jackson, and the
! body was laid to rest with Masonic
i and 1. O. O. F. honors of which organ
izations he was a member.
jlr. Jones is survived by his widow j
and one daughter. Jliss Jlaggie Ruth
Jones, three brothers, M.. M• J. and i
\y. I>. Jones, and two sisters, Jlrs. T. j
B. Smith and Jlj's. Treadwell.
No man in this county was better
known or better loved than Doe Jones, j
and his going away removes one of the j
old landmarks and one of Barrow’s j
best eitiens. With a heart of pure gold
Doc Jones lived, loved and served and
no wonder there was sorrow among i
those who knew him and loved him.
Possibly the largest concourse of j
people at a funeral in many years at
tended this funeral at Chapel church j
to pay the last sad rites to this good
man.
C. M. Ferguson & Co-., embalmers,
had charge of he body.
Col. G. A. Johns Will
Be Candidate For
The State Senate
We are in receipt of a communica
tion from Judge G. A. Johns, of Win
der, who now represents the 27th Sen
atorial district, saying that he will he
a candidate to succeed himself.
Judge Johns is one of Georgia’s
ablest and gifted lawyers; he is one of
tlie smartest men the 27th Senatorial
District has had in a number of years.
He is a man that the people of the dis
trict should feel proud of.
It is very doubtful if Col. Johns will
have opposition at this time —it is a
very unwise thing for any man in the
district to offer for .the place Judge
Johns seeks. He deserves an endorse
ment—and will get it. too, no matter
who offers for it.
judge Johns will make his formal an
nouncement within the next ten days.
