CRISP'S $350,000
) 9
IN ROAD BONDS 0. K.
FINAL ACT OF COURT AT NOON
TODAY VALIDATED ISSUE
Judge O. T. Gower at noon today
signed the order of court which put
the final O. K. on the issue of $350,
000 in road bonds which Crisp county
voters passed on May 15 last. This
validated the issue and made it pos
sible to offer them for sale after they
are issued. They will not be issued
until needed and therefore no tax will
be levied anywhere at any time to
run against the interest until they
are issued. In other words, the bonds
will not become an expense against
the tax payers until the paving is
started.
This is likely to come sometime
next year. The federal fund is not
not assured in any large amount this
vear, and no steps have been taken
to direct the sale of the bonds fcr the
reason that the funds will not be need
ed immediately.
Nothing has been intimated as to
what project will be first handled.
Under immediate consideration is the
plan to determine whether federal aid
can be had for the bridge across Flint
river at Hugenin’s An effort is alsv
being made to determined the cost.
This project is being handled by the
county commissioners of Crisp and
Sumter together. Nothing has been de
cided as to wether the bridge will be
possible

es the fullest at every turn in the
program. They did excellent service
for the whole day. At the close of
their concert at night they gathered

i PROGRAM OF DAY WAS SPLEND-
Parade Include Two Bands
And Large Number of
Soldiers. \
l Hardly one-third of the people swwho
wanted to hear the address of Judge
Waiter 1, George at the Crisp Couoty
court house vesterday. got within
hearing distance. The house was
crowded early not more than
half the soiliers present got inte the
honse. When the exercises started
every available standiag place had
been taken. The veterans of the six
ties and the soldiers of tho late World
War were given special places, but
even in these places there were more
people crowded than ought to have
forced so close together on cuch a
day.
Judge Max 1. Land presidad as
master of ceremonies. e paid tri
bute in exceilent manner to the sol
diers who gave their iives in the jate
war,
It waos near twelve oclock when
the speaker was introduced. Judge
George met every expectation of the
crowds who knew that he was going
to make an eloocuent address. For a
sull hour he devoted his time to re
counting the heroism ol American peo
|jlo in their various conflicts for dem
|ocratic liberties. A brief reference to
Wilson and his great statesman ship.
a protest against the aims of his un
holy enemies in congress, and a proph
ecy as to the outcome, brought great
applause from the speaker’s hearers.
The first music was rendered by the
Cordele Band. It played “America” in
splendid manner and made a good
!first impression. Mr. H. S. Jennings
sang in an impressive manner, taking
the place of the men's quartette. The
opening prayver was made by Rev. Wal
lace Wear, pastor of the Baptist
} church.
{ Mrs. M. M. Eakes presented a read
ing which was most appropriate and
well rendered. Following her Miss
‘,Alene Kennedy sang “Home, Sweet
|Hnmn" and had to come back for an
l‘other.
The Waycross band at this juncture
played and later presented a medly,
’u special selection which the band
members had prepared for this occas
lion. The Cordele band played again
!and played well. The audience sang
[the “Star Spangled Banner” and Rev.
1 T. 88. Stanford, pastor of the Metho
[(ll\'t church rendered the concluding
'pruyer.
’ During the exercises the accompany
lirg music at the piano was rendered by
|Misaes Berdie Bulloch and Helen Com-

; A Splendid Parade.
| Dr. A. H. Kendal had been assigned
il“ the duty of preparing the parade
I'l‘his was formed by marching the
ivmwds out of the court house in their
lorder and when the people reached the
streat the parade moved without de
lay. Both bands took part and when
one had completed the other took up
ithe music, keeping the moving co!
umn well supplied with inspiring mil
itary aris. Dr. Kendall had his plans
made for a line of march which put
all the varicus interests at their best.
l Especially creditable was the =so.-
!'livr's showing. A large number of
| young men took part in uniform, even
}[hv' seamen being represented in fin.:
| style. Several of the veterans of the
| sixties braved the hot sun and fell in
| sticking to it to the end of the line
|lt the picnic grounds. There wera
i fome trade floats arranged at the
i':l.\‘l hour. the chief among these he
