RIVAL CITIES IN REALLOVEFEAST Albaivv Roterisms Guests Of Americus Club Thursday In contrast to the old days, when Americus and Albany fought on ev ery available occasion, there was a love feast between the two cities prsday when the members of the any Rotary ciub were guests of it-— " mer * CU8 club for five and a half hours, from 2 to 7:30 p. m., at two feeds and a ball game. Whether the good spirits would have surviv ed the baseball game will never bo Tknown, for rain broke up that con test, which was between the sam* two cities, at its very beginning, leaving nothing to even threaten the good relations. The visiting Rotarians, headed by their president, tfbrdon Reynolds, hardwood manufacturer of Albany and manager of the baseball team, arrived by special car at 2 o'clock and were met in a downpour of rain by Americus Rotarians in their cars, i They were escorted directly to the J Tea -Room where a splendid fried I chicken dinner was waiting. Here | good fellowship reigned until nearly 14 o'clock, when the meeting broke I up for the visit to the ball park. Re- Iturning to the ct?y, the whole com- Ipany met again at the Tea Room for ■ supper at 6:15, where they remained |until train time. The welcome to the visitors was delivered by Col. G. R. Ellis, who gracefully and good naturedly assur ed them of the good feeling existing between the two rival cities and of Ihe pleasure their presence meant, president Reynolds responded for Albany in a pleasing manner, going lomeydiat into the meaning of Ro ry and what its spirit was doing bringing these two communities Ind other communities together. 1 Prof. J. E. Mathis, in a brilliant but not lengthy talk, poured some lot shot of pleasantry into the vis [tors, and at the same time remind Id his home town fellows of some If our shortcomings. He told the Visitors that if an Americu* man. Timothy Furlow, had not changed me direction of a road running «ut If Americus there never would bevc Been an Albany, and also that A1 ■any owed her start to three for net Americus men, Joe Martin ; Charles' Nesbit and Arthur Allism |le said Albany held some very dear nal ties to him, one of thes** that the Wm. Slaughter camp onfederate veterans of Albany named for his mother’s brother, Irhojdied in Civil war. He mention Id some of the things in which A1 |any excels Americus, although not pying just that, calling attention ) her country club with beautiful nd well kept golf course, her boas tful park close in, her fair ground* fith good buildings, race track and and stand, her athletic fisld con- fuous to the high school, we! ulpped and providing splendid ad ntages for the youth, and other ac bmplishments of the. ctiy—all things e said, for which Rotary stands. Morris Tift, of Albany, made rief talk, iii which he made a pie*, or support for the Boy Scouts. Miss Melva Cl$rk sang twice dur hg the luncheon and was heartily c i lored each time. A novel entertain- bent feature was a negro sermon >y a small colored’boy from F-*n galley, imported by Walter Rylandei lor the occasion. He preached in geuninc camp meeting style.

POLITICAL POT IS SIMMERING ITERRELL’STAX VALUES SLUMP . DAWSON. July 22*— Receiver Ernest Baldwin has completed the 1 1921 tax digest for Terrell county and forwarded it to the comptroller general at Atlanta. The total value of the taxable property in the county this year as shown by the digest is $4,944,870, as compared with $5,810,076 in 1920, a loss of $865,206, which is approximately the amount that was gained last year by raising the as sessments on certain classes of prop erty at the direction of the state tax commissioner. This year the returns show a loss in the valqe of every class of prop erty except dogs and jewelry, these two items alone having increased. The value of farm lands in the county, as shown by the returns, is $2,016,246, a decrease of $368,049. City property is returned at $987, 951, against $1,141,424 last year. The value of banking stock has de creased from $430,832 to $415,832. A slump is also shown in money notes and accounts.

The 750 automobiles own ed, or in possession of the people of the county are returned at. a total valuation of only $169,880, a de crease of $31,790 since last year, when the figures were $201,670. Packard Skids Into JDitsh And Is Burped A twin-six Packard car belonging *o the Schneider Motor Co. and driv- ATLANTA, July 22.—Once again Georgia’s political pot is simmering —or at least the fires under the pot are rcachig higher and making the kettle boil as the general assembly grinds away toward the end of ita session. Herbert Clay’s boom for the gover norship has sounded throughout the state. And is still booming. Many campaigns for prospective candidates are started, but few are finished. The cause may be found in the fact that the voters, no matter how many times they are fooled, generally take their own good time in selecting a candidate. But the president of the senate’s race, which was started by his friends at a recent barbecue in Mar’etta, is receiving favorable comment in nil prts of the state, if the letters which arc reaching his desk are comments of the press may bo considered as sound indications. Then, there is the fact that the name of Clay is magic .in Georgia politics. While many other men would bo engaged in the task of ‘‘making a name,’’ Herbert Clay, in a governorship campaign, would be making hay while the sun sent its beams from the heavens. ThU es- set, in addition to the president’s lotural proclivity toward making friends and reputation for ability, have caused many political leader, of the capital to look up'.il his a tl.e next chief executive. ftemor. j.‘-t-ry D*v. With its president in the political light, the senate chamber is filfed with campaign material. Each pass, mg day brings rumors of possibl. candidates, and to date, the stiuatior, may be briefly summarised as fol lows: Judge B. F. Walker, one of the recognized leaders of the upper nouse, is considered a candidate toi congress from the Tenth district. F«i many years, he ha3 been active ir. his section of the state, and woulc prove a strong candidate agalnsi Congressman Carl Vinson. Senator Pope is being groomed for congress in the Seventh district, whilo Senator O.. A, -Nix, of Law. renceville, is said to have his eye on the judgship of the new P.cdmon’. judicial circuit, tile creation of which is being sought by advocates in both houses. Judge Jim Thomas—the senator from the Third district with a laugh that Has made him famous and one >t the most popular members of tn assembly—is being urged openly to run for the state court of appeals. Two other senators, Bond an«. Fleming, of the Tenth, arc being mentioned as probable candidates from their respective districts. Sen ator Fleming has a record in his first term :n the upper branch of having passed every bil (introduced, and has been heartily supported in hif dis trict on different positions he has taken on question of local interest. Hare's a Surprise. Now cornea one of the real sur prises: Senator J. M. Mills is reliably re ported aa the next candidate for the office of commisaioner of agricul- tture—J. J. Brown, the present of ficial, having decided, it is rumored, not to be a candidate for re-elec tion. Mr. Mills is president of the Formers' Union, and is well known throughout the state. Senator L. C. Brown, who takes the position that he has never* been given the proper opportunity to pre sent serious charges, which he states are in his possession, against the de partmont of agriculture, is also con sidered a likely candidate for Com missioner Brown’s toga. Should the race resolve itself into contest between Mills and L. C. Brown, the commissioner would throw his support to the former. Senator Brown, however, has reviv ed much favorable comment through out the state on his efforts to i.ave the agricultural department investi gated, and would stand an excellent chance of winnihg. There are others, of tourer, be ing Becrotly groomed for various of fices, but this summary outlines the situation as it exists today. But who can say what the morrow will bring? Miss Bessie Graves, of Albany, who will be associated with the new concern, for tho purpose of buying stock for the store. They will be gone prob ably ten days, after which they will return and begin placing the goods ns they arrive, preparatory to tho formal opening, which is expected to take place about September An informal showing of wearing ap parel for achool girls, however, is planned for about August 23, in time for them to outfit themselves be fore leaving for school or college elsewhere. Mr. Taylor and Miss Graves left by automobile, accompa nied by Mrs. Taylor, who will visit at MetteF during their absence. From Mcttcr they were to go by train Friday afternoon to Savannah and there board a boat for New York. W. D. Bailey and Walter Fagc also made tho trip with them, going to market to buy for their respective concerns. “We are going to remain in New York probably ten days, but as long as necessary to find exactly the goods wc want to buy and all that wo will need for the opening,” said Mr. Taylor. “Now York, as you probably know, is the center of the world markets. Every maker of con sequence, both here and abroad maintains offices in New York and ample:: or stock. Wc intend to see everything offered in ladies and miss es ready-to-wear clothing and ac cessories, and buy the smartest and best offered. Wc are going to con centrate on getting the right mer chandise at the right price. Miss Graves is an experienced buyer of ladies ready-to-wear and will be of great assistance to me on this trip.’ During their absence the finishing touches will be put to the interior of the new store, so that when the new goods begin to arrive it will be n readiness for their immed:ate plac ing.
