Tentative Plans Made F ori
Entertainment of Vete- |
rans in August. 1
—— |
Those who have been doubtful about }
Manetta being able to entertain the !
Confederate Veterans at their reumior ‘
in August should have attended the
committee meeting on last Thumc}zyl
mignt.
Every ward was represented, ithe
ladies being in 'the majority, of course:
they always are in any work of kind
ness, love or charity, but there werel
men, real men, men who can and have
‘done things in the past and whose pres |
.ence, interest and enthusiasm combined |
with that of the ladies present ensures
a united effort and the saccess of the
wndertaking. |
Many good suggestions were made
and adopted, and the work af procur
ing homes for the veterans was left to
the ladies of each ward. and ‘the men
are to procure the necessary:funds for
the entertainment. The active can
vass Tor homes begins July Ist and it
is ‘thought that more than enough
homes can be secured with very little
effort. A large number of homes have
already been secured. The veterans
will be here two days and barbecue and
basket dinner will be given them, re
lieving the housekeepers of the midday
meal.
Anderson Bros. Co. and Fowler Bros.
Co. have generously donated:the use of
their ware houses for mess halls.
Marietta is going to entertain the
veterans as they deserve, and those
whe doubt her ability to do so, should
atJdeast not ‘‘knock,’’ just stand aside
and see how well it can he done.
Get ready. When the committe
«comes, do your full duty, entertain all

Thomas A. Edison Wantsi
To Use Them in The |
Public Schools. i
Thomas Edison suggests teaching |
children by means of moving pictures
and the Atlanta Journal of Tuesday
illustrates this idea in a fine cartoon.
It has beer said there is no royal roadl
to learning but this new way of teach- |
ing will be a primrose path of ease and l
pleasure. One picture firm, the Pathe
Film Co., already makes a specialty of
current events of importance. Histor
~cal scenes are popular, too. Is it pos
sibde to learn arithmetic by sight alone
or will adding machines and cash regis
ters abolish the multiplication table?
Any one who has heard lectures illus
“rated by stereopticen pictures will un
derstand the advantages of moving
picture lessons, and feel inclined to
sing: ‘OO Would I Were a Boy Again.”’
Candid Declaration.
“What sort of a ticket does your
suffragette cladb tavor?” “Well,” re
plied Mrs. Torkins, “if we owned right
up, I think most of us would prefer
matinee tickets.”

her brilliant work in the first grade

She will retexn to Boston, Mass., her
old hame, and take primary work in &
neighboring town.

0 PAY, ND UNVEILING, ‘
SAYS CAPT. MORRIS
Committee Will Not Unveili
Clay Monument Until
It Is Paid For.
S |
That the magnificent monument to
Senator Clay which is being erected in
the city park will not be unveiled until
paid for is the declaration of the monu
ment committee this week. The work
is being rushed by the contractors and
the funds are not coming into the treas
urer, Capt. Fred Morris, as fast as
they should and it is feared that the
money will not be on hand when the
monument is ready to unveil.
Capt. Morris requests us to urge all
‘who have not paid their subscription
'to commnnicate with him at once so
]th:lt he will know what to do. He is
at a loss to understand how people
icnuld subscribe to such a worthy under
| taking and then utterly fail to respond
! to his repeated request that those prom
(ises be fulfilled.
| If you are not a subscriber to the
'monument fund and feel that you can
i possibly contribute anything your effort
' will be deeply appreciated by the monu-
ment committee. Get in line and help
put the money in the hands of the sec
retary, Capt Fred Morris, at his office
ever Sams’ drug store,
Mr. Morris says that he and every
one would like to see the suggestion to
unveil the monument and light the
white way earried out but that he will
not allow the monument to be unveiled
until the money is in the bank to pay
for it.
Fight Your Own Way.
If you got into trouble without the
@ssistanco of your friends, you should
be game enough 1o get out in the
same way or take your medicine.

Gives His Own Life in Suc
cessful Effort to Save
Many Passengers.
Engineer J. E. Latimer of Atlanta,
was instantly killed Monday morning
when his train was wrecked an a tressle
about four miles north of Canton. No
one else was even seriously injured al
though many of the passengers were
badly shaken up. Mr. George Ander
son was probably the most seriously
injured, his leg being badly bruised.
A rotten tressle and the fact that
Engineer Latimer stuck to his post and
stopped the train in the face of certair
‘death saved the lives of practically
!vwry one on the train. The train was
running about twenty-five miles ar
'hour when the tender of the engine
}jum]wd the track about a hundred feet
,south of the tressle. ‘lt bumped along
ltlw track and derailed the engine anc
| baggage car. The tressle was badly
| torn up and the two passenger coache:
'fell partly through and stopped. if the
| tressle had been strong so that the en
{ tire train could have crossed, the pas
' senger coaches would have rolled dow:
| the embankment into the Etowah river
i The engine, tender and baggage ca
! turned completely over but the baggag:
|elerk had gone into the prssenge
| eoach to get a glass of water and thi
alone saved his life as the heavy trunk
would have crushed him to death ha
he been in the baggage ear.
Four views of the wreck will b
‘ found on page two.
