THE CARTERSVILLE NEWS Cartersville, Georgia, August 30, 1923. UNION MEETING AT ADAIRSVILLE GREAT SUCCESS Spirit of Unanimity Pre vails, and Desire Is For Another Just Like It Next Year. By BELL BAYLESS, Staff Representative. Adairsville, Ga., Aug. 30.—(Special.) East Sunday night a religious revival of unusual character and interest in Adairsville came to a close after run ning for two weeks. It was a union meeting conducted by the Method'st and Baptist congregations. By an un usual coincidence these two denomina tions. due to the late peach season this year, found themselves each run ning revival services at the same time in their respective churches. The inconsistency of such a conflict in so small a town as Adairsv lle was seen at once, and on Sunday afternoon of August 12th, a joint committer from both churches met and arranged for a joint series of services. The first union service was held that night: Tlie spirit of unity at once seized the town On Monday it was seen that neither of .he churches r.r.uld hold .the Congregations, and ar rangements were made to use a large vacant building. All the seats were moved from the two chiftvhrs. Three, pianos were secured. Then from serv to service the largest number of Adairsville people tha: ever assembled for liny purpose met dai y with abso lute one-ness of spirit. Often the au ditorium was unable to held the crowds attending. Itefdfe this meeting n 0 one even dreamed that such unity was pos sible anywhere. The preaching was done by Rev. Charles Williams, evangelist of the North Georgia Methodist confemece; Rev. Mr. Gober, pastor of the Baptist church,here, and Rev. Reynolds Greens, pastor o: the local Method st church. Their preaching was devoid of nar rowness in any form. There was noth, ing sensational or fantastic even sug gested in their methods. Their sane, practical appeals resulted in fifty-two additions to the two churches, with several more yet to join. By a happy chance each thus far have received the same number of additions. At least one-fourth of,the new members are heads of families. The singing was under the leadership ol Mr. Charles Miller, of the State Bap tist Mission Board. He proved himself a most able leader. The business end of the meeting was managed by Mr. Sam Bums. His work | was so much appreciated that he was j given a rising vote of thanks by the congregation at the closing service last i Sunday night. . At the same time votes of thanks l were given the visiting helpers in the 1 ’meeting. Rev. Mr. Williams and Mr. j Miller. The community has already, expressed a desire for their return next year. More than S4OO was raised to meet the expenses of the meeting. Plans are already being discussed for a similar meeting next year.

FORD ANNOUNCES NEW TYPE CARS Change in Ford Coupels Outstanding Other Changes Noted. Detroit, Mich., Aug. 30. —(Special.)b— Introduct'on of a higher radia.or. bringing new and improved body lines to all types of Ford cars, is announced to-day by the Ford Motor Company. The changes have just gone info ef fect and the various types are now in production. While the larger radiator has been made standard on all types and while It has made possible other bet terments in body design, there is no radical departure in construction, but rather a general Improvement which has resulted in more graceful lines. The new radiator sets an inch and a half higher than the former and has an aprftn at the bottom which joins a similar apron effect of the fender on either side, giving a highly finished sn. pfrance to the front o; the car. The larger radiator also increases cooling efficiency. Most conspicuous among the new types is the Ford coupe, which is of en tirely new body design and construc tion, resulting in a more trim exterior appearance, more comfortable seating, arrangement and a greater luggage carrying capacity. From the dash there is a graceful sweep in the cowl to the radiator, bring ing a pleasing effect to the front. The doors are wide and open forward, mak ing access and exit easy, are heavily framed for rigidity and strength. The compartment at the rear has been enlaged to afford in creased • arrying cp.imrlty. The gaso line tank is under the seat.-with divided cusmous o afford easy filling of the tank from the right side, making it un necessary for the driver to leave his seat. Ventilator in the cowl anti a visor over ‘.he windshield add much to the attractiveness of the car. Anew rear fender of more sturdy character also is a /eature. Interior fittings are of choice mate rial and the arr angement of the deeply cushioned seat has been effected so that at the rear there is a small recess shelf for carrying parcels. The rear i- a •' is much l ‘ •• ad oh - !< :'- in shape. Door windows have with the lever ; vpe window lifters inee ts introduction a j ear avo, be 'mint' ot as low, graceful lines, the car now presents even much better lines and- a sturdier appearance. This has been brought about by the installation of an entirely new cowl \vTth a graceful sweep from the dash blending into the larger hood and ra crpsae in leg room for occupants of the ' iator. The change also adorns aa in front seat. In the open types, the Touring Car an ( ] Runabout, the cowl has been en larged and flows In a graceful curve to the higher hoed. The result brings a most pleasing ef. feet, to the ex.erior appearance pf both types. The improvement in the Tour .ing Car, which came when the one-man top and the slanting windshield were introduced, is greatly enhanced by the larger radiator, the car appearing lower and more attractive than ever. The ef fect on the Roadster is likewise most appealing, giving it a more rugged and /Sirdy appearance. The new radiator also is extended to the Ford Truck chassis, affording im proved appearance and better cooling to delivery services. These new Ford types and the gen erally recognized performance ability of the Ford under all motoring condi tions, promise to bring a greater de mand than ever before as the public becomes more fully acquainted with the higher standards and greater val ues which have been In corporated. No changes are contemplated in prices. JOLLY MAKES FINE APPLES Has 200 Trees of “De licious” Variety That Are Doing Unusually!
