Judge Ross has a communica¬

having the county represented at
Macon’s peach carnival next
month. Wo hope that the people
will look upon it in a favorable
light, and show to the balance

not only as good fruit as lie 1 sis-
ter counties, but that it is a fallacy
when they tel! yon that all of our
ambitious and enterprising citi-
zens have moved away. Let the
county be represented. We owe it

large one, but Round Oak, in her
usual hospitable way, right roy¬
ally cared for them.
