THE BARTOW TRIBUNE
SO® Cf BED IS
GtLEGRATt AT AICO
An Evening of Pleasure
Was Participated in by
Pocahontas Society.
An interesting event in lodge circles
v as that which tcok place at Atco last
Monday evening when the lndepend
nt Order of Red Men and the auxtl
i; ry organization, the Porahontas So
ciety, gave an entertainment to which
v as invited the membership of both
lodges, together with a number of
visiters.
On this occasion the Red Men parad
ed in costume about the village of
Atco in true Indian style, and was an
a'tractive feature, not only to the par
ticipants but to the inhabitants of the
village as well.' Refreshments were
served at the chapel and speeches
were made, all of which were inter
esting and instructive. The visitors
were particularly delighted with the
character of entertainment furnished,
and when the evening, was ever a 1
were conscious cf having spent a most
enjoyable time.
The visitors present on this occas
ion were W. C. Walton, of Carters
ville; J. C. Leonard, of Emerson; an '
11. Shugart, J. E. White and J. B.
Reavers, of Calhoun. .
The Indep ndent Order of Red Men
at Atco is in a most flourishing condi
tion and has a very large and influen
tial membership. Affiliated with the
Red Meii is the Pocahontas Society,
also a secret order, composed of wo
men. These two orders co-operate in
public entertainments, and, in other
ways, the organizations are closely af
f: listed.
The oflicers of the Red Men thero
ere, Sachem, M. W. Hart; Senior Sag
iraw, G. W§ Alien; Junior SagirpiW,
W. M. Orton; Keeper of Wampam, W.
L. Green; Chief of Records, R. A. Chi'-
wood; Deputy Grand Sachem, Oscar
Fallis.
The officers of the Pocahontas So
ciety are, Lula Keown, Keeper of Rec
ords; Lula Neal, Pocahontas; Mary
Parker, Wenonah; and Will Allen
Powhatan.
The greater number of members of
these lodges live in the village of Atco
but all are so closely identified with
Cartersville and are in such close prox
unity, all Cartersville takes a lively
interest in their parades and public
entertainments.
RENT PROBLEMS
HOW TO MEET THEM.
Here is the law:
"The advantages arising from the
development of transportation facili
ties, good agricultural education, the
v. ise employment of chemical ma
nures, co-operation for the economical
purchase of feed stuffs and seeds, and
tl.e energy spent on improving live
s:ock, ultimately go past the tenant to
the owner of the land.”
The farmers of Belgium learned
how to add five dollars a year to the
Lutterfat value of the cow, by feeding
a balanced ration. At once the land
owners raised the rent, and absorbed
the additional wealth the tenant
created by intelligence and energy.
The biggest problem that New York
faces today, is rent.
Nine-tenths of the merchants of the
nation do business in rented houses,
v bile the wage earner rarely eve *
owns his own home.
‘‘Rent is like a great sponge set to -
tween interest and wages. It steadily
absorbes them both.”
Is there a remedy?
The Cartersville Building & Ixar
Association is an organization to help
humanity—worthy humanity. They e •
courage, they beg you to save. They
will supply your savings with more
funds and help you to own your own
home, or farm. They will help you tu
improve it. To build walls, add te
Ludldirgs, apply paint, increase the
horse power, plow deeper. They stand
fur saving upon the most profitable
method?; they apply the saving to the
development of Bartow.
Don’t let another day ]>ass, unless
you urge your child, the clerk, the
wage earner, even yourself to inves,
n the new May series and become a
member of the soetety of savers.
No greater medium of profitable
saving confronts cur people.

WRECK OF NEW TRAIN
LAST THURSDAY
Tlie new train put on by the West
e.n K- Atlantic railroad to accommo
date local travel between Kingston
and Chattanooga was initiated into
the hazards of railroading last Thurs
day when it came in violent contaC
v.lth train No. 93 leaving Chattanooga
at 7 o’clock in the morning.
From what can be learned, it seems
tear the Kingston accommodation had
•lie right of way ami wa.s entitled to
the schedule it was making and to
tiii track it was moving over, but the
engineer and fireman looking ahead
end seeing the southbound train heal
ing down upon them, reversed thei
t ngine and had succ eded in stopping
i' and starting it again south before
the ciew of 00. 93 had discovered tba:
there was such a thing in the world
as the Kingston accommodation. The
Kingston train, however, had picked
np enough speed going in the same d'-
roe fieri with 93 that the contact was
.ot s< rious. The locomotives were
somewhat battered up and travel was
delayed but no injuries of a serlou >
r.ature were rei>orted.
It now being established lliat the
Kingston train has a schedule. It is
to he hoped that the other trains wil'
l -ar this in mind and permit It t
maintain its right to run hereafter
without interruption.
