What We
Have Done,
With Your
Help
Some eight or nine years ago
we opened our doors to the New
nan public in a store-room 18x66
feet. We had only about $500 to
put into business, hut believed we
knew what the people wanted;
we knew we were capable of serv
ing them properly and promptly;
so we began. Since then our
every aim has been to give the
people their full money’s worth—
to give them the best drug store
we are capable of conducting—to
make the place attractive.
To-day we are occupying some
thing over 60,000 square teet of
lloor space, operate our own elec
tric light plant, our own machin
ery for manufacturing ice cream,
etc., and are paying taxes on
more property than any other
drug store in Coweta county.
We have always stood for prog
ress, and the pace we have set
has been hard to follow. New
nan now has the best drug stores
of any city of its size in the State.
We are largely responsible for it.
It is with a reasonable amount
of pride that we call attention to
these facts.
We thank you for the patron
age which has made this possible.

r
Mr. R. P. Davis, two miles east of
the city, has fifty acres in cotton that
is the wonder and admiration of all
who have seen it. The cotton is now
knee-high, arid with one more plowing
will be ready to "lay by.” “Bud’s”
neighbors, who have been struggling
with rain and grass arid town cotton-
choppers for more than a month, are
puzzled to know how he did it. The
more envious among them declare that
he got ahead by working at night, and
some have been mean enough to insin
uate that he didn’t even stop for Sun
day.
Louis Beil, white, about 25 years of
age, was arrested Saturday on a war
rant sworn out by R. I.. Callahan, of
East Newnan, charging Bel! with crim
inal assault upon the person of Nannie
Lee Callahan, the 18-year-old daughter
of the prosecutor. The alleged offense
was committed on the night of May 30,
while the young woman was out driving
with Bell beyond the eastern suburbs
of the city. The arrest was made by
Bailiff Burn Glass, at Raymond, and
Bell was brought to Newnan and lodged
in jail. The commitment trial will
probably take place next week.
