SPECIAL-SIX
TOURING
W HEREVER you look, you will
find protection against hard wear
built into-the Studebaker Special-Six
and this quality of construction is just
as exacting down under the surface as
it is where you can see every detail.
The skillful workmanship and the
fine materials of these hidden values
are largely responsible for itb iong-lived
dependable service.
Two important elements that make
the Special-Six notable for fine perform
ance and comparative freedom from
repair, are the four-bearing crankshaft
and the seven-inch frame with its five
cross-members and sub-frame support
ing the motor and the separate trans
mission.
The new price, $1275, is the lowest for
•which the Special-Six Touring Car ever
sold—and the quality is better than ever.
Price does not always determine
value, but in the case of Studebaker it
establishes the finest values in the mar
ket. The name Studebaker on your car
insures satisfaction.
Come in or phone and let us give you
a demonstration in the Special-Six.
Drive it yourself. A ride will help you
make up your mind. In public confi
dence and respect, the name Stude
baker stands higher than ever.

Eliminate Worthless Pictures.
If pictures are worth framing have
them framed. Otherwise put them
away or throw them away. Don’t let
the younger members of the family
pin pictures on the wall. The edges
curl and they soon become unsightly
dust collectors. Small, fussy bric-a-
brac should be avoided for the some
reason.

The Next judge Looms Up Prominently ^
COL. J. C. EDWARDS
^ One of New Jersey’s most con
servative towns is consumed with
mirth, and the objects of said mirth
are n young,, kind-hearted bride and
bridegroom. The bridegroom, it ap
pears, took a chance on a turkey that
was being raffled off in his New York
office and a few days later was notified
that ,he liad won the pompous bird.
Highly delighted, he gave his address
and ordered the prize sent out to his
New. Jersey home.
In the course of time the bird ar
rived at its destination, and arrived,'
much to the surprise of the bride and
bridegroom, in a wire crate very much
alive, remarxs th,e New York Sun. As
their experience In executing birds was
nil and the bride “couldn’t bear to
have its pretty head chopped off,”
they decided to chloroform it. Con
sequently, the toext night, when the
bridegroom got home from the office,
the anesthetic was administered on a
lovely lace handkerchief and then the
bird was plucked and put into the
Ice box. About 9 o’clock that night
the peace and quiet around the library
lamp were disturbed by strange noises
in the kitchen.
. Hand in hand the newlyweds bravely
descended upon the kitchen expecting
to find the ever-looked-for burglar.
But no burglar was to be seen. Lo
cating the noise^in the direction of the
ice box the brave young bridegroom
swung open the doors and out stepped
a very naked turkey. After a few
rounds of the kitchen with consider
able flapping of wjngs he began pick
ing up the crumbs <5n the floor. The
bride and bridegroom looked at each
other in horror ‘and fled from the
kitchen. An hour or so later the
services of a neighbor were called
upon aBd this time the turkey was an
esthetized with an ax.

Col. J. C. Edwards, candidate fpr judge of the North
was in Cornelia this week mixing with his friends r .v
the city and surrounding territory, it is freely pi-
that Callaway Edwards, as he is familiarly known
judge of the Northeastern Circuit.
Colonel Edwards is by no means a stranger to tin- ; ■ ople 0 ; f ,
nelia and this section, for he and his family resided i u the citr*
Cornelia back in the days when as a station on the old Hiehmond
Danville Railroad, Cornelia was known as “Rabun Gap,” a „C
post-office here was named “Blaine/’ in honor of the late J am „
Blaine, the great statesman. Colonel Edwards moved here in th ey
1883, where he lived for several years, and was engaged in t h e »
cantile business. In the year 1887 the name “Rahim Gap",
changed to Cornelia, in honor of that estimable lady. Mrs. Corn!
Barrow, wife of the late Judge Pope Barrow, a prominent lawyer
jurist of Athens, Georgia,, who frequented this section of the state
the pursuit of /his profession. In the year 1887 an act of the Gent
Assembly was passed ereatirig the city of Cornelia, and amongthej
commissioners composed of James M. Biggers. C. 11. Sellers, wj
Grant, I. T. Sellers arid Colonel Edwards, the official body of |
new created city, was Colonel Edwards, who, by his fellow-coj
sioners, was named the chairman of the commissioners, such offal
corresponding to the present mayor’s office, and consequently CoImJ
Edwards became Cornelia’s first mayor. It is noteworthy, thatii
it has been thirty-five years since these commissioners were appok
bv that ,act, all are living except C. II. Sellers, Who died in 1889,a
all who are living reside in Cornelia at present time except Co|J
Edwards. It was while Colonel Edwards' resided here that he hadijl
first inspiration and lore fr- the lev,, he having held the office J
justice, of the peace of d militia district, which then embraced the ter
ritory of Baldwin,-Cornel'a and Mt.Airv districts, lie practicedli|
here for a year and moved to Clarkesville in 1890, where he has si®
resided.
Colonel Edwards was born and reared in Habersham county, J
has ajwa.vs made it his home. lie came of poor and humble
and liad very little opportunity to get an education in tho scatter^
schools of the rural sections of tliat day, but by hard work, efficient
study and perseverance, he has reached h:s place at the top of tie
ladder among the leading members'of his ^profession in this seetj.*
of the state.
In.the year 1905 he was elected a member of tin* Georgia legish
tore from Habersham county, and made a record as a member ol
the General Assembly tliat .anyone might he proud of. One instant);
of his legislative accomplishment was the prominent stand lie toil

vestigdte the conditions of penitentiaries and chain-gangs of the state
which was ,then operating under the lease systems, under which sys-j
tem conditions were had and convicts inhumanly treated. Upon
his arrival in Atlanta from his inspection trip with the committee,
he drafted a report on the conditions then existing in the convict
gang that opened the eyes of the people of the whole state, and 1
