didate, Mr. John W.
This gentleman has given
m as .J.i’. of the 470th dis
for 12 years and is now a
candidate f• >r' re-electior. to the
office. I wisli to say. as a voter
and citizen, that lie deserves to
be re-elected. He has proven
competency and worthiness for the
place year after year and it is to
be hoped that he will win in this
race and have votes to spare.
Let every good man think of this
and vote for John \V Almand for

Mayor Woodward, of Atlanta. ii«»
Anally succeeded expressing
to npv - Len G ‘ Brighton. The
Mayor has all the while been at the
mercy of the Minister until a few
evenings ago- when the positions were
reversed and nmv the Minister is di
.f.etiug a roast similar to those lie
a« « ■ trequentiy placed before the
Mayor. ! t is onr private opinion that
'he Min'stor lias carried his warfare
,! direction quite far enough and
desist. People tire of too
mm h of ihe same thing.
Gentry s Dog and Pony
Sliovv
It s indeed a treat to both old and
young to witness a performance
of the Gentry Dog ami Pony Show.
It is also marvelous to contem¬
plate the perfect training these
dogs and horses have received.
Not only are the dogs and ponies
well trained, but the little ele¬
phants and the monkeys are nlso
trained to perfection. The dogs
act with human intelligence, as do
the ponies also, and one is kept in
a state of admiration for them
from the beginirtg ft> the end of
the performance.
This show gave two performances
in Conyers last Thursday and Inin
dreds of people witnessed them
win, great pl.t,sure. The ladle.
and children especially were pleas
ed, and will have pleasant recol
lections of Gentry’s .dog and pony
show until it comes their way n
gain.
