“The plan made was to erec a

“The Legion and Auxiliary had in
their treasuries^ $1,.°»50, which wav
turned over to the treasurer of the
Memorial oxecuivo committee. This
money had been raised by the stile
of poppies on Armi-’ticc Day each
year, and by plays which the Legion j (
had sponsored.

gmization war given an opportunity
to contribute to the Memorial fund.
The response from each person and
organization was prompt and gener
ous. It was because of this, together
with the saving and management of
Mr. Hutchinson that enabled them to
complete the Memorial in a few
weeks; also to hive it practically
paid for.”
He semed to be speaking for the
iOgion in appreciation of the spirit
if* the people when he said “Hard
work and one hundred percent back
ing by the town has made the pro
ject a success and has given to Mil-
ledgeville one of ;hc nicest and most
useful Memorials yet erected in the
state.”

Is your home dastcrcd with ma
teria hhat will .* tand through the
ages? The old p overiier’s mansion,
now known as KcComb’t Mount, is
plastered with material that has last

“Not even an ax can break this
plastering for I have seen a man try
to break it with main force.” r?-
marked Mrs. McComb with a feeling
of pride.
The mansion is* located six miles
east of Milledgeville on a high hill,
which is surrounded by fir trees and
ropical plant; of .various kinds.

of a 25,000 gallon water tank, un ice

There are between -100 and 500

a direct challenge to the next legis

FOOTBALL AT G .S. C. W.
S. C .W. has taken quite an
interest in football during the sea
son of 1928.
Although the game is not played by
the college students, there has been
much excitement over those games
which have taken place in the Col
lege Auditorium.
The football field at G. S. C. W.
is an indoro one and the games
played on Sa.urday night, always be
fore a vast throng of spectators.
There is much cheering for the
team*. Each play is watched
great interest and when a touchdown
ii- made it really seems that the roof
will leave the building.
You don’t understand how there
room for th? football field in t
auditorium? Well, I’ll explain. The
whole thing takes place on the screen,
and the players are only movie actors,
and the outcome of the game is al
ways det?i mined before the kick-off
but G. S. C. W. girls are just a:
cited as if it were real.
