COL CARL BOYD RECOGNIZED IN MOVINGPICTURE Native of Bartow County Is Now First Aide to General Pershing.—Has Been In France Several Years. Visitors who gathered at the Dixie Theatre to witness the wonderful pic ture. “Pershing's Crusaders,” were pleasantly surprised to see Col. Carl Boyd, who is plainly recognizable at leaat four times in the production. Col. Boyd is a son of Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Boyd, of Adairsville, and was born and raised in this county. In 1903 he was appointed to West Point, and graduated from that institution with high honors. He received an assign ment soon after leaving the academy and later was sent to France as mili tary attache at the American embassy at Paris. That was five years ago. When General Pershing landed in France, it was Col. Boyd who was the first to greet him. As military rep resentative in France of the United States Government, it was his duty to introduce General Pershing to the French military chiefs sent to the port of embarkation to welcome the Amer ican general. Col. Boyd performed this delicate task with such rare grace, that Gen eral Pershing asked that he be as signed to his personal staff, and soon after arriving at American headquar ters. Col. Boyd was named aide to the American general. In this position, he has been General Pershing’s constant companion, and naturaly has been in close touch with every move made by the American ar mies which have won everlasting glory on French soil. The picture at the Dixie Theatre was witnessed by a large audience at evert showing Wednesday, and many of Col. Boyd's friends easily recognized Bar tow’s illustrious son. Among those in the audience at one i of the afternoon performances were Mr. and Mrs. O. M. Boyd, of Adairs ville, parents of Col. Boyd. Naturally their hearts swelled with just pride and the fact that they had not seen him in five years made the picture all the more enjoyable to them. A brother, Mr. ; G. M. Boyd. Jr., a native of Bartow ( county, hut for fourteen yea*rs a resi dent of New Mexico, was also in the audience. He had not seen his brother for fourteen years, hut easily recog nized him in the picture. Col. Boyd married Miss Annie Peep les. of Chattanooga, a cousin of Mr. Oscar T. Peeples, of Oarter3vilie. They have one daughter, now thirteen years old. and make * heir home in Paris, where they have lived for the past five years. .Tust prior to the outbreak of the war. Col. Boyd made arrangements to come home for a visit, and had se cured passports for himself and fam ily. On the Mat lie was to start, his .leave Of absence was withdrawn, and j therefore, he and his family have lived i throughout the war in France, he at 1 American headquarters, since General Pershing named him as Bis aide. Another Boyd in Service Mr. G. M. Boyd alos has another son i in Franc#', Lieut. Willis M. Loyd. He has been iir the front line treticles sev eral limes aA’i saw some of jlhe hard ■ est fighting of the American campaign. . Word has coifiA through that lie- has ! s>ef n cited for bravery under fire, and , it was expected sa would soon be giv . en a deserved promotion. ! Lieut. Boyd oner- 1 secured a leave fti j absence in order tc- visit his brother American headquarters. Upon arriv ing there, he was introduced to Ger>- | eral Pershing, by Cei. Boyd, and the ; General invited the two brothers to ; bo his guests tit dinner that evening ! This was indeed a signal honor, and one that will he a soutu* of sincere con gratulations for the* Boyd brothers from their scores of friends in old Bar i tow county.
