WHY A NEWSPAPER?
There is not a merchant or busi
ness man in Milledgeville, who does
not know thnt a live and progressive
newspaper is a necessity for the ad
vancement and upbuilding of the
community, and the chronicling of
local news. It would not be far amiss
to siy that if there were not
newspaper in this city, the businci
men would organize .a stork con
puny nnd inaugurate one as quickly
l possible.
This bei
and
do not
think anyone would undertake
contradict it, why should not
merchants and business men patro
nize a paper that is already b
published here, nnd thereby enable
the publsihcr to publish a newnp«p
thnt will more and more meet t
requirements of a progressive and
growing city.
While the reason stated abm
an important factor it is not
most potent one, from a personal
and business standpoint to the busi
ness men and merchant, because
newspaper advertising is one of the
strongest and most influential fac
tors in building up the business and
securing trade for the merchant whe
uses the columns of his local news
paper to tell the public of the line
of goods he carries and the bargains
he is offering.
The publisher of the Union Record
er has endeavored to kep step with
the line of progress that has been
enade in Milledgeville, and publish a
•paper that is a credit to Milledgeville
and Baldwin—one that is worthy of
the support of the merchants, busi
ness men and the people.
The present publisher has been
connected with the Union Recorder
from hi* early ycuth, and succeeded
his father as the editor of the paper
more than a quarter of a esntury
ago. The changes in the psper and
printing business, during these years,
•has necessitated a large investment,
and he has cheerfully made it so that
he could keep the paper at the high
est standard and serve the city and
county of his nativity more worthily
and more creditably.
he Beautiful Queen
Bradbury)
This spring G. S. C. W. is again ob
serving International Music Week.
The night of May the ninth, is to be
to the entire Freshman
Class, which will present the sacred
cantata, “Esther the Beautiful
Queen," under the direction of Miss
Tucker. The music for this beautiful
cantata was composed by Wiliam B.
Bradbury, who was n manufacturer
of pianos, a teacher, and a conductor,

imposed many sacred selections
but his, Esther the Beautiful Queen,"
utstrips any othei. .hat he has
written.
The story is taken from the book
of Esther, chapters 1-10. A synopsis
is ns follows:
Esther, was a Jewess born
Persia five hundred years befo
Christ. Being an orphan from hab
hood, she was adopted by her cousi
Mordecni, who realizing that s
possessed great beauty, trained her
all the accomplishments of woma
hood. She was chosen by the King
of the Realm to be his Qucei^ Bet

Hamon was Premier and a favorite of
the King. He hn*od Mordecai be-
cause he would not bow down to him
n's the King had commanded, §ml
knowing Mordecai's relationship to
the Queen, he resolved to be avenged.
By perverse methods he obtained a
decree for destroying all the Jews in
the Province. Mordecai heard of this
and charged Esther to perdition the
King, at the peril of her life, for the
safety of her people. The King heard
her petition Hnman was defeated
had prepared for Mordecai was pro
claimed Premier in Hamon’s place
and all the people rejoiced.
The cantata has proved a great
success, not only for its stroy but al
so for the lovely music. The melodies
are simple and real. There is vim
and vigor as well as pathos and
humor in the cantata. It will be well
worth your time to come out and hear
this cantata, with its fascinating
melodies that bespeaks distinctly of jW
