moving about in this section the past
few weeks. Mr. Peppers, of this

The school in this the 19th school
district, has been progressing nicely
under the management of Miss Janie
Taylor, with Miss Carrie Taylor as
her assistant. The children are almost
as busy as bees, and the parents
are elated over the progress their
children are making.
We regret very much that Miss
Janie had to leave her school a few
days ago on account of having taken
the measles. We hope she may soon

Atlanta, Jan. 24.—The Advertise
Georgia meeting in Macon January
17th in which the Georgia Press As
sociation joined and took a leading
part, it was generally agreed, was the
most successful meeting of its kind
ever held in Georgia, and it was note
worthy because it marked the definite
launching of the campaign which has
been under discussion since last Au
gust and which had been slowed up
by prevailing economic conditions.
The carefully worked out develop
ment and publicity program of the
Georgia Association, mapped out for
of over twenty statewide civic and
a three year period, was unanimous
ly adopted by official representatives,
commercial organizations, and over
fifty county and city organizations,
noteworthy and most enthusiastic
among them being the Georgia Fed
eration of Woman’s Clubs.
March 15th was set as the date
when descriptive matter from counties
which at that time shall have voted
their quotas will be printed and pre
pared for distribution. Approxi
mately fifteen pledged their quotas at
the Macon meeting, and other pro
gressive counties are expected to fall
in line rapidly now that the success of
the movement is assured. Absolute
equality of treatment is assured count-
undcr the plan adopted, an important
part of which, “the Know Georgia
Campaign,” rests largely upon the
country as well as the city newspa
pers.
Two important committees were
named, the personnel of which in
sures effective functioning and sure
results. One of them, the Campaign
Committee, has for its chairman F.
Roger Miller, president of‘the Georgia
Association of Commercial Secretaries
and includes the presidents or secre
taries of every other statewide organ
ization interested in the constructive
upbuilding of the state. Its duty will
be tv direct the raising of the remain
der of the quotas from counties that
have not yet joined and to act in an
advisory rapacity with the officers of
the Georgia Association.
The other committee is called the
Committee on Exhibits and has for
its chairman, J. Phil Combell, of
Athens, head of the extension forces
of the State College of Agriculture.
This committee will plan an exhioil
of Georgia products of various kind/,
that will be taken to other cities and
will be so co-ordinated with the oiher
publicity plans for stimulating pros
perity in every line of endeavor i
the state.
“Action Now” is the watchword
of those directing the campaign and
there will Vie no halt or let up till
it proves in fact the biggest co-oper
ative movement ever successfully
launched in Georgia or the South.
f the cotton
the South which will succeed in pro
portion to tlie local co-operation given
it. There will be a general discus
sion by local leading spirits and no
body who can possibly be there
should miss it. Commissioner Brown
says:
“The campaign for acreage reduc
tion in Georgia has by no means be
slowed up since the Memphis meeting
a couple of months ago, hut it has
been a gigantic task to get in touch
with the leading spirits
county in the'State. A very great
deal of that work has been done by
Mr. Lathrop, and he reports that
every county in which the matter has
been handled has responded cordially
and enthusiastically. All over Geor
gia the littlp hanks in the country
have taken hold of the movement and
now. with these county seat meetings
on the 10th, I am satisfied we a
ing to close up the State organiza
tion for acreage reduction right
quickly.”

IN LOVING MEMORY
Cn Thursday night, January 27,
1921, the Death Angel visited the
home of Mr. add Mrs. Jim Small
wood and claimed for it’s own, the
spirit of their loving daughter, the
wif i (if Mr. Marion New.
‘Birtie May way in bad health for
several weeks, although she would
not give up until ten days before her
death, she took her bed, with a terri
ble headache, of which she didn't get
rid of until her death and oh, how
she suffered but she bore her pain
with great patience.
She told her sister when she took
her bed that none of the doctors could
ever ease her head. She told her peo
pie she wouldn’t get well, and she
tried so hard, to tell them something
about two days before she died, but
they couldn’t understand her.
She leaves a husband and father
mother, three sisters and two broth
ers. Her sisters are Mrs. Flossy Lo-
ve'ns*, Addie Bell and Edna Small
wood. Her brothers are Eska and
Vesta.
Listen, dear relatives; we know *tis
hard to give up our loved ones but
we must remember, our loss is her
gain. And Birtie May was such a
sweet girl; she always met everybody
with a smile. Isn’t it a sweet con
solation to know that if we live as we
ought, we will see that sweet smiling
face again. Read these words below,
dear relatives:

Death;

IN MEMORY OF MRS. ESTELL
YOUNG HANSON
On Nov. 24, I920-, shortly after noon
the white winged messenger of death
came into the home of Mr. Rich Han
son and claimed for its own his loving
wife, ‘Estelle’. She was 20 years of
age, just in the bloom of young woman
hood. She was loved by till who
j knew her, for it can truly he said she
was a good, sweet woman. She united
with the Baptist Church when 18
years old, attending church as long
iis health permitted. Death is sad in
any phrase, hut doubly so when a
mother is taken, she leaving two small
children and a devoted husband to
mourn her death. Not now hut i
the coming years, it may be in a bet
ter land, we’ll read the meaning o
these tears and up there we’ll under
stand. Be it therefore Resolved, That
web ear in humble submission to Him
who doeth till things well, and that we
send a copy of this to the family, also
id it
To the Worshipful Mast
and Members of Dough
No. 289, F. & A. M.:
We, your committee, appointed t
draft resolutions in memory or ou
Tate brother, C. W. McLarty, beg l
submit the following:
Brother McLarty was born in IVuld-
ing County, Georgia, on September
8th, 1870, and spent his boyhood and
young manhood as a citizen of said;
Paulding County, moving to Douglas
ville some 8 years ago.
lie united in marriage with M ss
Mattie J. Dorris on the tenth day
of July 1901, who survives him. Two
this devoted couple, one of whom,
children came to bless the home of
Lillie Mae is still in life.
Brother McLarty joined the M. E.
Church at Bethel in the year 1880, and
remained a consistent member and
earnest worker in his church until the
time of his death, his membership
having been in Douglasville since he
moved here.
Brother McLarty was raised to the
sublime degree of a Master Mason at
Adamsville Lodge about the year 1893
where he was living at that time, and
afterwards, as before, lived the life
of a true Master Mason.
Brother McLarty died at his home
in Douglasville, Ga., Oct. 29, 1920, we
might say suddenly for it was only a
few days since he had been mingling
with his friends on the streets of our
town, although he had been suffering
for some time on account of his af
flictions, but none save his immediate
family knew or realized the serious
ness of his condition.
In Brother McLarty’s life, as in
the life of most every man there was
one outstanding characteristic which
stood above ail others and it may
Avell be said of Brother McLarty that
the outstanding characteristic of his
life was most worthy of all, being his
devotion and love of his home and
family. No man could be more de
voted to home and family than
Brother McLarty, and his happiest
moments were those spent in adminis
tering to the wants and pleasure of
his family.
Therefore be it resolved by your
committee:
1. That on account of the passing
away of Brother McLarty Douglas
ville Lodge No. 289, F. & A. M. has
lost one of her most faithful members
and workers; and that our Order has
lost a man who had huilded his life
upon the teachings and precepts of
the order;
2. Our county and state has lost
one of her most useful citizens;
3. Oun town, one of her best sup
porters and most loyal citizens;
4. Our Church, an efficient mem
ber and worker; and .
5. His family, a faithful and affec
tionate father and husband.
Resolved further; That a page of
our minutes be dedicated to the mem
ory of Brother McLarty; that a cop:
of these resolutions lie furnished tli
immediate family of our deceased
brother; and that a copy he furnished
the Douglas County Sentinel with the
request to publish same.

I1M TRAFFIC
Mrs. Mary Harris Armour in two
speeches Sunday in the Douglasville
churches scored the illicit dealings in
whiskey as evidence of indifference on
the part of the public. She said the
liquor business could be stamped out
only by co-operation of each indivi
dual citizen with officers and judges
who would impose the heaviest penal*
Ues upon violators of the law instead
of tines, which she said, are ‘.‘little
more than license.”
A good crowd was present at both
meetings, one being at the Methodist
church Sunday morning and the other
at the Baptist church in the evening.
At. three o’clock she organized a local
v !■ • 1 F. many members volun-
leering; to join, a goodly portion of
whom were men.
Mrs. Armour discussed prohibition
and its benefits at some length, hold
ing the interest of her audience
throughout the meetings by her ap
parently inexlmustable fund of in-
formation and her compelling power
as a speaker.
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
Rev. W. II. Clark, pastor of the
Methodist church, is running a series
of sermons on the “Ten Command
ments” on Sunday evenings. The one
for discussion next Sunday evening
will be the eighth, “Thou Shalt Not
Steal.” You are welcome, guilty or

To the Worshipful Maste:
and Members of Douglas
No. 289. F. & A. M.:
Dear Brethren:
Your Committee begs h
port as follows:
As the shades of night began to
descend on September 3rd, 7 920, the
spirit of our beloved and young bro
ther Charles M. Iluey took its flight
to “that undiscovered country,” and
we believe tlpit be had a joyful en
trance in “that house not made with
hands, eternal in the Heavens.”
Brother Huey was oorn in this
county on th<* 7th day of November
1889. He had been a faithful mem
ber of Douglasville Lodge No. 289
for several years, and our officers can
testify that he was n’.vjiys in his
place when business and health per
mitted. He learned the lesson taught
by Masonry well and faithfully prac
ticod its precepts. He was of a
quiet and unassuming manner and a
most lovable disposition. The hand
of distress was never held out to him
in vain, and by his kindness and gen
tleness he made friends wherever no
went.
Resolved first, by the Douglasville
Lodge No. 289, in regular communi
cation assembled, that in the death of
brother Huey one of our most faith
ful members 7ms been taken from us
and we shall cherish his memory ufc*
til that time when we clasp his hand
and thus re-unite our broken chain.
Second, that our warmest sympathy
goes out to his father, mother, broth
ers and sisters and other loved ones.
Third, that a page of our records be
set aside to his memory and a copy
of these resolutions be furnished his
family, and that a copy he furnished
the Douglas County Sentinel with a
request that they publish same
