I am speaking from
ke, for instance,
Crisp which was
ly. We were in
jnna, the original
y and the territory
i was in every waj
•ated than is Haw
territory, aad on
account of the short distance from
Cordele, as well as the great numb
er of trains we had daily, it was
l strongly urged that we did not need
ft a. new county. The feeling on the
ft part f the opposition was extreme*
jly hitter, and even those who were
'so strongly urging the new county
could not blame the opposition for
putting up so strong a light against
it. The old county of Dooly was
very prosperous, and it really seem
ed that to restrict its territory to the
extent the new county would require
would he ruinous.
Now Let's see what the result has
been since the now county was ere-
Prior to that time there was
a continuous warefare between Cor
dele and Vienna. Both towns be
ing io the same county, the devel
opement of one was more or less
necessarily at the expense of the
other. Now they both grow on and
transact their business entirely' in
dependent of the other. The bitter
feeling which we all thought would
never die out has been wiped out,
and it C a fact that those who were
strongest in their opposition to the
division are now perfectly willing to
admit the wisdom of the change.
As it is now, any farmer in either
county car look after the work on
his farm and drive into town to at
tend court and be back home in
time to see to everything on the
farm in the afternoons. Besides all
this, property values have increased
wonderfully in both town and coun
ty, more friendly relations have been
established between the merchants
and the farmer, and I predict that
the greatest progress of all the coun
ties is going to be made in the next
decade by those having small terri
tories.
Excuse me, please, for writing

above, I feel a deep interest in any

good, and 1 know that a very active
and successful effort toward the
creation of a new county out of the
territory you propose to embrace
would mean more for your town
and community than any move you
could possibly engage in.

your success, I beg to remain,

Entertains
.Mrs. .1. P. Peacock entertained
Friday afternoon in quite a lovely
manner for her attractive house
guest,Miss(l race Troutman of Ath
ens, and also Mrs. Jim Cook’s guest
Miss McLeod of Abbeville.
The guests were met at the door
by Mrs Peacock and after being in
troduced to the guests of honor,
were then directed by Mrs. John
Wlaker to the dining room, where
Mrs. J. J. Taylor in her usual char
ming manner served punch. A most
interesting game of Fan-tan and
Heart-dice was indulged in, Mrs.
Hendry winning the prize, a lovely
boquet of pink carnations tied with
tulle. A pretty pink and white
motif was carried out in every de
tail the hand painted score-cards,
being tied with pink carnations.
A delightful ice course was served
in white rose cups.
Mrs. U. //. Pat
rick Entertains
Mrs. C. H. Patrick entertained very
delightfully Thursday morning from
10:30 to 12:00 in honor of Mrs. C.
R. Hooks, of Atlanta and Miss
Maude Patrtck, of LaG range.
In the reception hall Miss Annie
Mae Wynne served delightful punch,
the punch bowl being hanked with
sunflowers. The tables were ar
ranged on the porch for dominoes,
Mis. J. X. Wynne and Mrs. A. J.
Thompson Jr. cutting for the prize.
Mrs. Thompson being the success- j
fit! winner of a beautiful hand-made
handkerchief. After the game froz
en tea with sandwiches was served.
High Quality and Moderate Prices.
Tfie particular man realizes that “negligee” does not mean “neglect”—
Summer time claims Smart Shirts and Ties and Hosiery for its own. Com
fort demands plenty of them, frequent trips to the laundry require high
quality, and your pocket-hook naturally calls for moderate pri ms. I have
studied the question long to strike the happy medium of HIGH QUALITY
at MODERATE TRICES. I want you to come in and see.
