HAS GAINESVILLE END.
Up you know there is hardly
anything that can happen with
out/having a Gainesville end to
it in some way? Gainesville people
who move away usually -attain
prominence wherever they are con
sequently whenever anything hap
pens they are strictly in it. To
see that there is always a Gaines
ville end to most everything we
only have to look at what occur
red at the fair grounds in Atlan
ta last Monday afternoon. There
an immense war balloon escaped
from its moorings just as two
Gainesville boys were about to
step into the car attached to it to
take a ride high up in the air.
Fortunately for them the rope
which held it snapped just a
moment before they got in, or it
would have been the end of them.
