COVINGTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY OCTOBER 4 1907.
.
the Middle Georgia Bank at Ea
tonton, and is as follows:
t t Ae well as I can remember, wo
issued bonds for $25,000 to put in
our waterworks, which cost about
$50,000. Y\ e nave issued bonds
for the sewer construction of $15,
000 and have authority ro issue
$10,000 more. We think the $25,000
will finish our sewer construction.
We put in waterworks some years
ago and the sewer in the last few
months. The sewer expenses are
largely dependent on the distance
you have to carry the outlay. We
hab to have two, and went nearly
• mile from the center of the town.
I do not believe you can get thru
with less than $60,000 for both.
‘T would not be without thewa
ter for any consideration, if it cost
double even what we had to pay.
When you shall calculate your sav
ing in fire insurance from having
your town rated properly by the
insurance companies, you will find
quite a dividend on your outlay
saved on that item. When it
comes to personal comfort and
cleanliness, with hot and cold wa
ter through your house, and all
sanitary appliances, it is hard to
J put a money value on these neces-
1 saries.
I do not believe that there is
i any other way to do than to go
| ahead and spend the money neces
snry to purchase these accompani
meats of modern civilization and
pay the taxes—whatever they may
be.
•‘Be sure to have the very best
men in office as Mayor and
men and then go ahead and you
will come out all right. Your has

COVINGTON MILLINERY
OPENINGS ATTENDED
By Large Number of Ladies.
Displays Beautiful and Elab¬
orate and Will Continue
Till Saturday.
Covington is today in the midst
of full and winter millinery open
ings, and scores of ladies are visit¬
ing the four stores that carry mil¬
linery tu inspect and admire the
beautiful and lovely creations.
At Mobley’s, Adair’s, Cook’s
and Cohen's the millinery parlors
are resplendent with glory in their
beautiful decoration of ferns and
cut flowers, and one cannot fail to
be instantly charmed when gazing
upon the magnificent and elabor
ate display of millinery.
At Mobley’s, Miss Newman and
Mrs. Mobiey displayed a number
of handsome models, among them
a velvet hat in leather
Mother Goose shape, designed
three prevailing shades of morning
glories. Black velvet, mushroom
shape, steel buckle and over-hang¬
ing Ostrich plumes, make up an
other hat of inexplicable beuuty.
At Adair’s, picturesque hats in
Mother Goose, Gage and mush¬
room shapes are cleveriy displayed
oy Miss Dailey. Boses and
ing glories are the prominent
ers, and feathers and plumes of
prevailing colors make the effect
most charming. Fancy pin orna
meuts, veilings and ribbons, in
leather shades of brown, blue and
green, are lovely indeed.
Cook is currying a very beauti¬
ful line of millinery, and the ex
quisite taste of Miss Willie Cook
causes the showing of hats to be
exceedingly fine. A lovely hut is
one of the Gainsboro shape, garnet
color and trimmed in green. ^

other is a large black picture hat,

At Coheirs. Mrs. Willingham in
charge, the display is most elegant,
and among the many beautiful de¬
signs are fluffy-ruffles in brown,
trimmed with quantities of ntorn
ing glories, velvet pompons; and a
black \elvet trimmed with velvet
and coke feathers and rhynestone
buckle.
U is beyond the power of the
writer to describe the elaborate
showings that are being so much
admired by all who visit the mi'li
ner y parlors above mentioned, for
we know that they cannot any
where be excelled-the d,splays
ufe pictures that simply cannot be
expressed with pen or word. Any
way, the fall season has brought

demonstrated in the city of Cov¬
ington.
A Sermon to Young Men.
A sermon to youug men on the
( 4 Remedy for Tfcelaai.ness” is an¬
nounced for next Sunday night at
the Baptist church by the pastor.
It is not for men only, ladies are
invited. This is a timely topic.
Many young men in Covington do
not attend church. They are
especially invited.
