Another Big Haul
o
A Ford roadster, belonging, it is
said, to a well-known Anderson
county (S. C) bootlegger, containing
about 30 gallons of whiskey broke
down Tuesday about 1 o’clock on
west Howell street near the residence
of Mr. J. R. Leard.
The Hart county officers, ever
alert, were soon on the job, and the
car with its load, was hauled to the
square where a large crow'd wit
nessed the pouring. The occupant,
in the meantime, made it conveni
ent to get out of Hartwell, as he
evidently knew the officers were
looking for him. It bore aS. C. tag.
They were, —-and they are to be
praised for their splendid work these
days.

Ku Klux Parade
A crowd that packed the square
witnessed the parade here Tuesday
night by the Knights of the Ku Klux.
The parade was headed by a mem
ber of the order mounted on a horse
and carrying the American flag.
I Following the leader came an auto
decorated and carrying the
fiery cross; this was followed by the
Ku Klux band from Athens and some
thing over 600 members of the or
ganization from this and adjoining
counties.
After their parade the members
and a large number of spectators
heard an address from the court
house steps by one of their promi
, nent members from Athens.

* 7,409 bales of cotton ginned in *
* Hart county from the 1924 crop *
* up to October 18th, against *
* 7,241 bales to the same date *

* thousand more bales this year *
* than in 1923. ♦
************
Uncle Sam’s latest predicition for
the 1924 cotton crop is 12,675,000
bales, as compared with the estimate

weeks ago. The crop at this time
last year was 10,139,671 bales.
The quantity of cotton ginned prior
to October 18 was announced by the
census bureau as 7,600,836 bales,
counting round as half bales, com
pared with 6,409,391 to that date
last year and 6,978,371 in 1922.
The condition of cotton October 18
was 54.7 per cent of a normal com
pared with a condition of 53.5 per
cent on October 1 this year.
The condition of Georgia’s crop

NEGRO SHOOTS ANOTHER
TWICE WITH SHOT GON;
HIT HIS LUNG AND TEETH
Emmett Rucker is in the Hart
county jail and George Allen has
been in a critical condition since
Wedneslay afternoon, October 22nd,
when Rucker shot Allen twice with
a shot gun. Both are negroes.
The difficulty arose, it is said, over
a small amount one owed the other.
One shot ‘took effect in Alien’s
left lung; the other in his face, most
of his front teeth being shot out and
his face badly torn up. It is thought
he will recover, however.
The shooting occurred on the place
of Mr. Tom Brown, who lives in
Hart county, close to Royston.
STOLEN PACKARD SEDAN
AND TWO NEGRO BOYS IN
LIST OF LATEST CATCHES
While out last Saturday night just
to see what they could see, Hart
Officers Britt Brown, Curtis L. Kay
and L. S. Skelton saw a Packard se
dan pass that looked rather out of
place, for nobody around this neck
of the woods rides in such style, cer
tainly between Hartwell and Lavonia,
where the incident occurred.
The vigilant Hart county officers
gave chase and passing the Packard
some distance, placed their car across
the road. Two negro boys, telling
wonderful stories of how their boss
had loaned them the Packard to ride
around in, were pulled out, and now
rest peacefully in the “Brown
House.”
The car belonged to Dr. H. W.
Minor, of Atlanta, who was prompt
ly notified.

Two Hart Girls Win
Scholarships
Two fine Hart county girls. Miss
Lillie Ford and Miss Mary Richard
son, won scholarships to the State
College of Agriculture on their ex
hibits at the recent Southeastern
Fair in Atlanta.
Mention was made last week of
the record of another Hart county
Club Girl, Miss Anna Milford, who
led the whole State of Georgia this
year, winning a scholarship with a
grape exhibit and Miss Richardson
with a special gift package, two of
many exhibits that the Club Girls, of
Georgia had on display. Their records
as Club Girls, under County Agent
Miss McLanahan, were also instru
mental in winning these scholarships.
And thus Hart continues to add
laurels to her crown.

CLEMSON RESERVES AND
DAHLONEGA AGGIES TO
PLAY HERE ON NOV. BTH
When the Dahlonega Aggies and
the Clemson Reserves meet in Hart
well on Saturday, November Bth, for
a football game it is very likely that

It is expected that in addition to
the large number of people from
Hartwell, Hart and adjoining coun
ties, these two institutions will send
large delegations to “root” for their
teams.
Hartwell is fortunate in having
Clemson and Dahlonega come here
for this big game,—and preparations
are being made to handle the crowd
that is expected for the event.
The game will begin at 3 o’clock
Saturday afternoon, November Bth,

PART OF GAS TAX FUNDS
Hart county last week received a
check for $1,470.26 as her part of
the Georgia gas tax fund distribution
for the third quarter of 1924.
The distribution is based on road

money is derived from a tax of 3
cents on each gallon of gasoline sold
in the State. The funds thus paid
to the counties must be used only
on road upkeep.
Hart has received various sums
since the tax law went into effect,
ranging from SI,OOO to $1,400 every
quarter.
Hartwell Football
Boys In Wreck
Several Hartwell High school stud
ents had a narrow escape last Friday
night just after dark en route home
from the game at Easley, S. C., when
the Cadillac car they were driving
collided with a big truck beyond
Anderson.
she truck was poorly lighted, hav
ing only a dim lantern hanging on
the front, and was not seen by the
Hartwell lads. The front wheels of
both cars went together, with dis
astrous results to both.
A number of cars from Hartwell
were following. In the wrecked car
were George S. Clark, Jr., Charles
Rogers, Henry Richardson, Joe Skel
ton, Linder Alford, Julian Burns,
Loyd Rogers and Frank Skelton. One
of the cars in the rear picked up the
boys, rushing them to the Anderson
County Hospital, where their bruises
were attended to.
The Hartwell lads won over Easley,
needless to say.

GEORGIA—HART COUNTY.
We, the Grand Jury, chosen and

We have, through our committees,
examined and inquired into all mat
ters that are supposed to come be
fore this body and reports of the
various committees are hereto at
tached and to which we refer and
incorporate as a part of our present
ments.
We notice that fully 75 per cent
of the indictments that come before
the Grand Jury are for the violation
of the prohibition law. We also
notice a large number of the wit
nesses against these violators are
very young boys. We deplore this
condition which is ruining the young
manhood of our country.
We are pleased with the work of
our officers, Messrs. Brown, Skelton
and Kay, who have been very dili
gent in bringing to trial these
whisky sellers.
We have elected F. C. Gaines and
A. N. P. Brown to succeed them
selves as members of the Hart County
Commissioners of Roads and Reve
nues, also L. H. Cobb in D. C. Al
ford’s place, he having resigned.
We have also elected Jas A. Estes
and R. L. Gaines to succeed them
selves as tax assessors and Z. B.
Peek in the place of T. E. Gaines.
We recommend that The Hart
County Commissioners of Roads and
Revenues place a water and light
system at the county farm.
We also recommend that the Jury
fee be the same as heretofore two
' dollars per day with the clerks re
ceiving an addition of one dollar
per day extra for their work this
term.
We wish to thank Judge J. B.
Hutcheson who presided in the place
of Judge Hodges for his clear, concise
charge to the Grand Jury. We also
wish to express our thanks to our
Solicitor, Col. A. S. Skelton for his
help to this body during the week.
We also wish to express our ap
preciation to our worthy Foreman T.
M.' Myers for his able presiding.
We recommend that these present
ments he published in the The Hart
