The Nashville Boosters.
The Nashville Booster Club,
about one hundred and twenty
strong, on their special train ar
rived in our city on schedule
time, Wednesday morning at
8:2o o'clock, and were met by a
lar^e delegation trom the Car
rollton Board ot Trade and the
city at large, who gave the vis
itors a most cordial welcome.
The Nashville Boosters were
headed by their General Direc
tor Mr. Leland Hume, the gen-
eral manager of the Cumberland
Telephone and Telegraph Co.,
and as each “boosttr” stepped
from the train had a rose pinned
on and a welcome badge.
Time was divided lor boosting
speeches and our city and county
ably represented on this line by
Mayor H. W. Long for
the.city ; Col. C. E. Roop, pres
ident of the Board of Trade,
spoke of our commercial inter
ests ; followed by a short address
by Hon. W. ]. Millican, Ordi
nary. All speeches were made
in a happy strain and sparkled
with wit and wisdom.
The party of Boosters included
some ot Nashville’s most prom
inent business men, and this
meeting with cur business men
will strengthen the ties of triend-
ship between them, and the re-
ception tendered the Nashville
party will sustain our city’s rep
utation for hospitality and enter
prise, and we trust so impressed
the visitors that they will carry
with them pleasant memories ot
their short stop here.
Messrs. L. K. Smith and R.
Lee Sharpe were delegated to
go to Cedartown to meet the
Boosters, and Mr. Sharpe says :
We met the boosters at Cedar-
town and we immediately intro
duced ourselves as ’‘advance
agents" tor the city of Carroll
ton. They gave us such a
hearty welcome that we soon
caught. the booster spirit and
both knew everybody.
“At once Mr Smith phoned to
Carrollton, “a fine crowd, you
can’t do too much for them, see
that everybody is at depot.”
“We were shown through the
whole train, from the cooking
department to the private offices
where typewriters were going,
and telephones and telegraph
instruments were in constant
use.
“Then we were escorted to the
dining car, where we heard the
three sweetest words in the
English language, “Breakfast is
ready.”
“I will write about that break
fast later (for I am writing this
breakfast the morning alter,)
suffice it to say when Mr Smith
and I had a third piece ot 60c
chicken thrust on our plate, Mr
Smith winked at me, I knew it
meant ‘we are living now.’
“Yes we did live because every
body radiated, everybody ate of
the good things, everybody
greeted everybody, everybody
told jokes, and just as everys
body was getting ready to un
button their vests and loosen
their belt buckles, the manager
called out, everybody get ready
for Buchanan.
“The people were at the depot
and the booster band played,
then Mr Ed Griflies welcomed
the boosters in a rousing speech,
and several speeches were made
by the boosters.
“This 15 minutes stop caused
more happiness and good feel
ing than one can imagine. Not
a child was forgotten, everyone
received a little present in the
shape of a tiny bucket, candy
or something. Mr smith and I
took our hats off to these boost*
ers who put so much personality
iu their trip, making it peculiar,
un que, distinct and unlorget-
able, even to us-
“Then a stop ot 15 minutes
was made at Bremen, some good
speeches made, and many little
ones made happy.
“Mr Smith telephoned to Car
rollton again, let everybody
close up and be at depot, we’re
coming,
“Just before we got to the Car
rollton depot, we heard the
shout of cur people, and when
the boosters looked out ol the
windows they shouted to each
other, look at the tlowers aud
girls and the crowd.
“What a short hour, our peo
ple hardly had time to express
themselves, but we want to say
the speechts made by Mayor
H W Long, C E Roop, PreB.
Board of Trade, and W J Mil
lican, our Ordinary, were fine,
and those made by the boosters
made us feel good.
“Every auto in the city was
put in service and a 15 minute
spent over the city, then we had
to wave goodby to the Nashville
Booster Club, the club that will
live in our hearts, in the hearts
of our children and our larger
girls, the club that we hope
some day to entertain as they
deserve.”

Old Soldiers Happy.
Same Old “Vets’’ Who Were
In Trouble Years Ago Now

Veterans of the war are often
victims of terrible kidney and
bowel troubles. The life they
lead and the lood they ate left
many of them in a state of
chronic debility, especially of
their bowel apparatus.
Quite a number of them iu
this vicinity have been recently
using Hamrick’s Best Liver and
Kidney Pills at night with the
result that their old troubles
have vanished, They report that
they can now eat lood which
they did not dare to touch lor
years. They no longer have to
go around without an appetite
but now can eat whenever and
whatever they please by simply
taking these pi.Is. Their digest
ion is good, they leel better
than they have feit for years.
Some of them who had gotten
very thin and pale, have gained
weight steadily since beginning
taking these pills. It goes with
out saying that they are happy.
Hamrick’s Best Liver and
Kidney Fills are a worthy sub
stitute for calomel—having the
same result without the unpleas
antness of calomel. Fine for bad
breath, sleeplessness, sluggish
feeling, loss of appetite, digest
ion, etc. They come in 25 cent
boxes and are sold under positive
