Peary, the American ex plorer, has telegraphed that he, too, has discovered the North pole, so that he and Dr. Cook will be rival elaimants for the distinction. Peary’s telegrams indicate that he does not think Cook has ever bsen to the pole. Peary’s last expedition sailed from New York, July 6th, 1908, on board the Roosevelt, a ship constructed especially for battling with Arctic conditions DR. BROUGHTON GETS A HAIR CUT. Dr. Len Broughton, pastor of the Baptist Tabernacle in Atlanta, has had his hair cut. While traveling in a sleeping car a ‘‘wad”’ of chewing gum, which bhad been left in a berth, got mixed up with the doctor’s enormous mass of iron gray locks, and the services of a barber were found to be absolutely necessary. It ia said Dr. Broughton has worn long hair on account of a promise made to his mother when he was a boy. Then, too, it’s a pretty good ‘‘ad’’—for it hsas been easy to point out Dr. Broughton in any crowd. Nobody else on earth has ever looked like him. It is to be hoped the hair cat will not have the same effect on Dr. Broughton that a certain other hair cut had on Sameson of old, but that he will con tinue for many years in full strength and usefulness. No matter what may be thought of his sensationalism, Broughton has done a great practical work in Atlanta—a work which will en- } dure long after he has passed away. | Clyde Fitch, the noted dramatist, is dead. He was the author of fifty plays, and the income from his productions was from $75,000 to $150,000 a year, When all the roads get tull of auto mobiles and the air is filled with flying machines the only safe place will be a eyclone pit. Atlanta is making great preparation | for the coming automobile show. I Well, anyhow, Dr. Cook has made ’em forget Teddy . Resolutions in Memory of Mr. W. T. Waterman. To the officers and members of Ken nesaw Lod(g{e No. 33, K. & A. M. Brothers, Greeting : We your committee appointed to draft a memorial to our deceased Brother, W. T. Waterman, beg to submit the following, and recommend that it be adopted. We also recom mend thata page of our minutes be dedicated to the memory of our de ceased brother, and that this memorial be attached thereto. We also recom mend that a copy of this memorial be | sent to the bereaved family. | Fraternally submitted, J. R. MILLER, J. R. GREER, J. P. CHENEY, Committee. IN MEMORIUM 0f Our Esteemed And Beloved Broth er W. T. Waterman. How slender is life's silver cord, How soon 'tis broken here; Each moment brings a parting word And many a falling tear. The sadness of parting with this beloved Brother is tempered by the sweetness of his memories, A gentle man, quiet and unassuming in his manner, deliberate in action, an ex emplar of the true principles of fra ternity, he has erected to his memory a monument of affection more lasting than one built of onyx and jasper and pearls, To those who knew him as a loving husband and father, a dutiful son, an affectionate brother, we extend our sincere sympathy, and, with you, we look for the light beyond the grave and led by the words of the poet, we know There is no death ; the twinkle of an eye ANd we are clothed with immortality ; A moment, and from waiding, have we passed Into life's inner chamber as a guest— Ourselves the same in all that was before, Save but the garments that our spirits wore. Not dead. To close the eyes-toyield the hreath To eh::ng:bme earth for Hesven-this i 3 not ath.

SPRUELL SCHOOL OPENS; J AUCRESS BY DR, BELK Splendid Educational Insti tution For Training of Boys The Spruell Preparatory School for Boys opened its winter session Tuesday morning with interesting exercises. Rev. 8. R. Belk of Atlanta delivered a fine address and there were appropriate talks by Hon. H. B Moss and Col. E. P. Green. Prof. Spruell is an educator of superb equipment and is admirably fitted to train boys and not only lay the founda tion for their careers in College but their work in life. The attendance is limited to thirty, twenty of whom must be boarding students. They must be at least fourteen years of age. With the limited attendance, making it possible to give individaal attention to the boys, they make pro ‘gress not possible under other circum gtances. The school is located at the Dr. Als ston place on Dixie Avenue. The grounds consist of six acres in a fine grove. 'The school affords splendid ad vantages which the people of Cobb county and others parts of the state should appreciate. Sole agent for Filson Club Cof fee. W. A, GATLIN, Grand and Petit Jurors.
