Hodgson-Powell.
Athens, Ga., April 0. —The most im
portant social event of the gay week
following Easter in Athens, and indeed
one of the most brilliant events of the
, ntire year, was the wedding of Miss
Ruth Preston Hodgson to Mr. Thomas
Nimmons Powell, of Newnan, at the
home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Geo. T. Hodgson, on Prince ave
nue, this evening at 8:30 o’clock.
Only the members of the immediate
families were present, but the brilliant
reception was attended by several hun
dred friends.
The bride’s sister, Miss Marian Hodg
son, was maid of honor. The other at
tendant bridesmaids were Miss Sarah
Coker, Miss Mary Arthur, Miss Mary
Powell and Miss Lutie Powell. The
groomsmen were Mr. William Powell,
Mr. Joe Hodgson, Mr. Geo. T. North
ern of Atlanta, Mr. Steve Powell, jr.,
and Mr. Geo. Hodgson, jr.
The first of the bridal party to enter
the room, which was a picture of ver
nal loveliness, were Mrs. Ward Wight,
of Atlanta; Mrs. Albert Davison, Mrs.
K. B. Wingate and Miss Sarah Cobb,
who carried white ribbons to form an
aisle down which the other members
of the party passed to the altar, banked
with white flowers and delicate green
tracery.
Rev. Charles C. Jarrell, pastor of
the First Methodist church of Athens,
performed the ceremony. The bride
was given away by her father, Mr.
Geo. T. Hodgson.
Mrs. Powell, as Miss Ruth Hodgson,
was one of the most attractive and
popular girls of the college set in Ath
ens. Mr. Powell, a graduate of the State
University, is the son of Judge J. S.
Powell now stationed in the Philippines.
The younger man has been in the is
lands since graduation, holding a Feder
al position of responsibility. After the
reception to-night the bride and groom
left for Atlanta, and will in a few days
begin their honeymoon trip to their
home in the Philippines.

The Young Ladies’ Bridge Club was
entertained by Miss Frances Arnold
Saturday afternoon, at her home on

room were most attractive in Easter
lilies and spring blossoms. Guests for
five tables of bridge were present, and
a delicious menu was served.
Miss May Cole, of Newnan, is in the
city to spend a few days with her sis
ter, Mrs. W. G. Lee, and to witness

“Opportunity Time" is over, yet all
is not lost—another club olfer good un
til 6 p. m., April 16—not quite as good
as the one just closed, but easier to se
cure.
$10 Clubs.—For every $10 club that
you turn in between now and 6 p. m.,
April 16, you will receive 190,000 extra
votes. You don’t have to turn this in
all at once—whenever your returns foot
up $10 you will have scored one club.
$5 Clubs. — For every $5 club that you
turn in between now and 6 p. m., April
16, you will receive 90,000 extra votes.
These clubs are easier to get than the
bigger ones, and, remember, this offer
is in addition to the regular scale of
votes. The period is short. See how
many clubs you can turn in during the
few days that it will run.
Of all the different prizes offered in
this contest you can win one as easily
as the other, by putting forth every ef
fort to that end ana showing your
friends that you mean business. If you
help yourself they will help you. Rome
was not built in a day, neither will this
contest be; but the time is growing
mighty short now in which to get the
lead over the "other fellow."
YOUR WORK APPRECIATED.
You may be sure that The Herald ap
preciates your good work, and is willing
to pay for your time with possibly bet
ter returns to you than you could re
ceive in the same length of time
through any other line of endeavor.
Then, again, you should be glad to help
your home paper—a paper that is
wanted, and should be in every home.
YOU’LL FIND NO FAVORITES.
There are no favorites in this contest,
so far as this paper is concerned. Ev
eryone has an equal chance. Those who
have not been very enthusiastic work
ers have a good chance to "get a move
on” now and show results. It is not a
bad time for a new contestant to get in
the game. Every effort that you can
put forth should be brought out now.
Look out for the "dark horse” that
works hard and says but little. As in
the game of politics, this is the winning
spirit.
HA! HA!—OUR OLD FRIEND, GOS
SIP!
There never was a contest, and there
never will be one, in which gossip will
not play a part. In fact, gossip is on
the job all the time. What is gossip?
It is a little insect that buzzes around
and makes a noise and stings, but no
body was ever affected seriously by its
sting. Are you from Missouri? You
will probably hear that Mary Ann Jones
has millions of votes, or that Sallie Te
hee Smith is the only girl that stands a
ghost of a chance of winning that Ford
car. But you MUST be from Missouri,
and say, "Show me.” Pay no atten
tion to gossip or reports. lie your own
manager, do your own thinking, and
run your own campaign. Forget that
anybody else is in it. Don’t worry
about the standing of other cunteslanis.
Make them "show you.”
There is no possible way for anyone
to get any inside information in tht-
game. Nobody knows ihe sinution
Success is as much for you as for any
other; hut don’t wail for i*. Step out
and meet, it, and do it now !
THE WORK YOU DO NOW MEANS
VOTES.
Go back and read the two club r ffers
already announced; then, to make
thinps doubly interesting, here’s still
another offer:
FIRST SEMI-WEEKLY OFFER, IN
TWO PERIODS.
First ppriod, April 10, 12 and 13,
closing at 9 p. rc., 123,0UU extra voles
over and above any club offer or the
regular scale of votes.
Second period, April 14, 15 and 16,
closing nt 9 p. m., 123,000 extra votes
over and above any club offer or the
regular scale of votes.
The contestant turning in the largest
amount of money during those two pe
riods for subscriptions will receive a
voting certificate good for 123,000 extra
votes for each period. Out-of-town
contestants have same chance as oth
ers, as their returns will be counted if
their remittance shows postmark be
fore 9 p. m. of either April 13 or April
16.
Be sure you get this: Two separate
periods, one closing 9 p. m., April 13,
the other 9 p. m., April 16.
TO HESITATE NOW MAY MEAN
DISASTER TO YOU.
Two-thirds of the average life is
spent in hesitating, and the rest in re
penting. Don’t let this apply to you
during the final stages of this contest,
for as sure as you hesitate you will re
pent when it is over and you see some
one else enjoying the comforts and
pleasures of the handsome prizes that
The Herald is giving to the winners.
CAN YOU TALK YOUR PROPOSI
TION?
Did you ever have a real live book
agent approach to sell you something?
Remember how hard it was to say
“No” to that fellow, and make the
"No” stick? He never seemed to hear
you, but just kept on talking, and
seemed to think that you were in the
act of digging down in your purse after
the money, yet all this time you were
trying your best to get rid of him. The
first thing you knew you had a pencil
in your hand, your name was signed,
and it was all over. How did he do it?
You wonder, after he is gone. He did
it by plain salesmanship, nothing else.
He knew his little story; he was fired
with his work; he was after your order.
You could not break in on him with a
battering ram. He did not know the
meaning of the word “No.” He never
heard it—and he won. This would bo a
corking good idea for every contestant
in this race. Study salesmanship. Mas
ter the points of this contest and go af
ter your prospective subscriber with
confidence written all over your face.
Tell him or her what you have, what
you want, what you expect, and what
you are going to get, and don’t let him
get in a word edgewise until you are
done, and when you get to the point of
taking the money for the subscription
it will be ready for you.
The field is ripe. We have said this
before. Hundreds and hundreds of peo
ple will take The Herald if you proper
ly approach them. They are not going
to look you up; you must get to them,
and you must do this without delay.
Anything in this world that is worth
having is worth going after. Drop
around to the Campaign Manager’s of
fice and let him tell you a salesmanship
siory. You'll enjoy it, and you’ll get
some go'd pointers.
LOSE? YOU CAN’T LOSE.
This paper made that safe in the be
ginning hy snn uncing in the first issue
that t very conHstant who qualifies in
i his contest and doesn’t win a prize
will rt-c ive 10 per cent, of all money
lhey lurn in lor subscriptions.
THINGS ’] O FEAR IN MIND NOW,
AS THE END APPROACHES.
No voles can he transferred, under
any rnndiii -rj8. No voles cun be bought
or sold No new contestants will he
allowed to enter ihe contest after April
12. No vo'es will be counted in this
contest until the actual money has been
paid in.

SPRING FEVER!
11
Now conies the season of the year,
of all others, when that epicurean
feat known as “tempting the appe
tite” must he “pulled off” regularly
in order to keep the stomach of the
average citizen on speaking terms
with digestion.
Appetites begin to lag at this sea
son; and it requires the principal
agency of one of the “sixth senses”
— “SEEING” good things tocatbe-
fore eating them—in order to stim
ulate the “hunger spark” and make
one feel like REALLY eating.
And now the sequence—
An inviting market; sweet, fresh,
cleanly; well stocked with the best
meats; a market that has sustained
a reputation for QUALITY and
CLEANLINESS, and proven by its
patronage that its policy is approved.
That market is the SIMS SANI
TARY MAR KET—known in New
nan as the CLEAN MARKET—
known and appreciated for the
QUALITY of the meats; the variety;
the tempting display; the courteous
treatment; the prompt service; and
equable prices.
One peep in to Sims’ Market is a cure
for a finicky appetite. Look in and
get an inspiration for a good “feed.”

Newnan Country Club.
Newnan is to be congratulated upon
the fact that she is to have a golf and
country club, where our business men
and ladies of the city may indulge in
healthy »xercise and recreation. It is
said by physicians, and those who know,
thit golf furnishes the most ideal min
tal rest for a tired brain, and the m ist
perfect physical exercise for the body,
corvhining such a fascination and in
terest to those who indulge in it that
men will take tho exercise regularly in
order to erj *y the game. The Newnan
Country Club has been organizer! with
an enthusiastic membership, and the
grounds are being rapidly puc in shape
for the use of its members. It is the
present intention to limit the mem
bership to fifty, and about thirty-five
have already sectored their intention to
j iin anil enrolled their names as mem
os s. Thi is a splendid beginning in a
very good cause. Our business men dn
not take enough diversion and recrea
tion to keep them young and active.
"All work and no play” is as true to
day as ever, and it is to bn hoped that
this movement will receive the hearty
indorsement and support which it de
serves.
Card of Thanks.
In our recent bereavement, in the
loss of our dear husband, son and
brother, we wish to extend our heart
felt thanks and gratitude to each and
every one of our neighbors and tritnds
for every token of love and sympathy.
Also, foe the untiring aid of physi
cians who attend'd nun. May God s
richest i.listings be with each one who
reinernher.il him so kindly during his
sickness, and who minister!d to us so
faithfully during our great surrow.

TEN WEEKS IN BED -EMINENT
PHYSICIANS EAILED- WON
DERFUL RECOVERY.
I wish to inform you of the great
benefit 1 have de-ived from Lie use of
Swamp-Root. I had been a sufferer
for more than twenty years from kid
ne.v and liver trouble and was almost
constantly treated by the most emi
nent physicians, who could only give me
temporary relief. I had been in bed
ten weeks when I began th t use of
Swainn-Root. Inside of twenty-four
hours I could see that I had been great
ly benefited. I continued to use .Swamp-
Root until I had used several hollies,
when I really felt that inv old trouble
was completely cured, and I am post
live tnat any person suffering with kid
ney or liver trouble can he cured hy
the use of this preparation.
I am now n the best of health, bet
ter than I have been for ten years or
more. I do not know how to express
myself as strongly as 1 desire, in favor
of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, as 1 am
sure that it saved wiv life and that my
good health is duo entirely to this
great remedy. I heartily lecommend
it to every sufferer and am confident
they can he benefited as I have beer.
It is a pleasure fur me, gentlemen, to
hand you this recommendation.
