) GANS TOMATOES
ON TWELFTH GF ACRE
Miss Sarah Lovelace Finds Big
Profit in lomatoss In
Cobb Coun.y.
Among the Cobb County Canning
“Club girls Miss Sarah Lovelace, who
won the first prize at the recent
show, has found a market here. Mr.
E. L, Faw is gelling her tomatoes in
‘two and three pound cans. She cul
tivated on one-twelfth of an acre and
sold twenty bushels at one dollar
each before she began to can them,
She has 710 two-pound cans and
27 three-pound cans for sale and
they are as good as fresh tomatoes.
Miss Lovelace will go to Athens
in January to take the course in
domestic science which was the prize
she won here., In Rome she won a
prize of $lO.OO and Mr. Henry Ward
presented her with a pair of fine
shoes.
LOCAL COMMITTEE FOR BIG
COTTON LOAN FUND CHOSEN.
Mr. J. E. Massey, President of the
First National Bank, has been ap
pointed chairman of a local commii
tee to handle the portion of the
$135,000,000 coftton loan fund fori
this section. The other members
are Dr. J. D. Malone, president of
the Marietta Tiust & Banking Co,,
and Mr. R. A. Hill, president of the
Merchants & Farmers Bank.
Mr. Massey says that the idea of
the fund is good but the plan, in his
opinion, will make it of little benefit
to this section. The loans will be
made on lots of one hundred bales
and as there are few farmers in this
county that raise that much cotton,
it is not likely that the fund will be
taken advantage of here.
NEW PASTCR'S FAMILY AT ]
THE METHODIST PARSONAGE
Raev. Rembert Smith and family ar
rived in Marieita Tuesday evening
and were met at the parsonage by
a committee of ladies who had pre
pared their new home and welcomed
them to it. These were Mrs. Lyon,
Mrs. Blair, Mrs. Read, Mis. Wikle,
Mrs. Baldwin, Mrs. Wayland Camp,
Mrs. Alban Gilbert, Mrs. George An
derson, Mrs. George Sessions and
Mrs. Mellie Martin.
The beautiful and well-furnished
home had been put in perfect ordec
and fires lighted in all the rooms.
A delicious hot supper was ready and
a cook present to serve it. A grow
ing “begonia in bloom adorned tho
table.
Mr. George Sessions brought the
family from the train in Mr. Gram
ling’s big car. Beside Mr, and Mrs.
Smith there are three children, Col
lins McKenzie, aged seven, Ruth
Palme», five, and Caroline Cozart,

"BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION.
On the 10th of December about
two hunderd and twenty five letters
were sent out, rquesting donations to
the Benevolent Association to re
lieve the great suffering in Mariet
ta. About fourteen have responded
to the appeal with generous dona
tions. It is estimated that fifty per
cent of the laboring people are idle
on account of the closing of the fac
tories and mills, and have no pros
pect for work for six weeks or more.
People who have never asked for
help before are driven to it now.
The Association urges that all who
ran 'will respond to the appeal for
help. We are sure every one would
be willing to give something no mat
ter how small the amount, if they
could hear the calls for help the as
sociation receives.
OtAcourse we like the large dona
tions, but if people only realized how
the nickles and dimes amounted upi
they wouldn’t turn aside the request
«of the collectors. |
There are a little over five thou
sand nine hundred people in Mariet
ta. llf half of them gave five cents
each manth te charity it would
amount to gomething like $147.50

tainly good and all the children are
wild over their antics.
Another thing special for Friday
night is the last episode in the fea
ture film “‘Perils of Pauline’’ and all
‘who have been keeping up with this

He wiped his eyes with his knuckles
and reached for thie package of seals

for him.

R"ED CROSS SEALS DECREASE
TUBERCULOSIS RATE.
“Would to God your work had started
fifty years ago,” was the comment of
an Arizona consumptive in writing the
other day to Dr. Hoyt . Dearholt, ex
ecutive secretary of the Wisconsin
Anti-tuberculosis association. Part of
Liie letter follows:
“I'ine work, o!d chap! That decrease
in the death rate scems a remarkable
gain to me. I had not expected results
as soon as that. I have always laughed
at the authorities who elaimed that in
ten years a case of tubercuosis would
be as rare as one of smallpox is today.
The bad work of ecenturies caunot be
undone in ten yvears, and so 1 marvel
at your wouderful progress, 1 trust the
errors ino statisties, it any, are all in
suur favor. - You itspire me,. Would to
God your work had started fifty years
reo. Probably «then the disense would
Lave missed me.”
The letter contained a check for Red
Cross Seals, from the sale of which the
eutire support of the Wisconsin work
iv derived. Every seal you buy is a bul
ict In the fight against tuberculosis.
ELLEN EXPLAINS RED CROSS
SEALS.
Ellen, who is seven years old and
lives out in Kausas City. came home
from school the other day with a red,
green and white “subscription card”
the teacher had given her. Her mother
had seen something about Red Cross
Seals in the paper, but didn't know
Just what it was all about.
*Oh.” said the seven-year-old proud
ly. “don't you know? They use the
money to take care of sick folks—sick
folks that haven't got any money to
take care of ‘emselves. The money
they get from the Santy Claus seals
goes to run a hospitai for those folks.
And they pay doctors and nurses to
teach people how to get well and how
not to get sick. Teacher told us all
about It. See, this paper tells.”
Then Ellen’'s mother read the folder
that small daughter had brought home,
telling how often taberculosis can be
prevented. and when she had finished
she signed the card for a liberal num
ber of seals.
SOME RED CROSS SEAL
FIGURES.
[Few people have any concep
tion of the magnitude of the
Red Cross Christmas Seal Cam
paign. Here are a few filgures
that will show what a gigantic
movement this is Already 115.-
000,000 seals have been printed
and practically that entire num
ber distributed to agents in al
most every state in the Union.
Probably 15,000,000 more will
be needed. Advertising circulars,
posters, cards, etc., to the num
ber of several million, have been
distributed. It is estimated that
the army of paid and volunteer
workers engaged in selling seals
numbers well over 100,000. The
advertising and publicity donat
ed to the campaign amounts to
several hundred thousand dollars.

HOGS, CATTLE OR MEN—

Governor Ferris Values Men More
Than Live Stock. 4
“Michigau is making a vigor
ous effort to ‘stamp out’ hog
cholera. FHogs are marketable,”
said Governor Woodbridge N.
IFerris to the citizens of his state
in a recent proclamation calliug
for co-uperation in the anti-tuber
culosis campaizn, “Michigan is
making a vigorous effort to
'stamp out’ tuberculosis in cat
tle. Cattle are marketable. Why
not make a strenuous effort to
‘*tamp out’ tuberculcsis in men,
- women and childrenY ~Human
~ beings are priceless.”
- Red Cross Christinas Seals are
~a means for every man, woman
~and child in the United States
to have a share in ‘“stamping

BETTY GETS A CHANCE.
Red Cross Seals Hslped Her to Get
Well,
She was real pretty and so full of
fun that the dimples were always
showing in her round, red cheeks. Her
eyes were big and brown, and her nut
colored hair curled naturally in little
ringlets over her forehead and ears.
She was just eightecen when we first
met her and so neat and attractive
that one would think she belonged to
the well to do class of working people,
but when we foilowed her to her home
one day we confronted startling facts.
The red in her cheeks was the flush
of unnatural inward fever, the high
spirits were a pitiful antidote to piti
less conditions. and the big brown eyes
suw only squalor when they were not
fixed upon a typewriting machine or
closed persistently to any view but an
imaginary bright one.
The room we entered was a general
living space, used also as an eating,
cooking and sleeping apartment. There
was but one bed, and Betty had to
sleep in it with her mother, who was
too weak to sit up. An open cuspidor
sat where it would be conveniently
near the bed., which placed it by the
stove, where their food was cooked.
The mother, who was suffering in an
advanced stage of tuberculosis, did not
like cold air., aud her- querulous de
mands caused Betty to keep the door
and windows closedl.
“Well.” said cheerful Betty, with a
laugh, “that isn't so had as not having
any windows or doors to close, is it?
Things might be worse.”
“Infinitely worse.,” said the Wise
One. “You might even take a notion
to stuff the windows and doors with
rags to cut ont what oxyzen comes in
throuczh the cracks.”
Red Cross Christmas Seals, with
their cheery message of hope. gave
Betty a chance to get well after her
mother died. Is it worth while to save
the Bettys?

CZAL ON EACH SOLE.
“Am I using Red Cross Christmas
Seals?” reiterated a good natured old
cobbler as he looked up from the shoe
he wuas repairing (o the person who
stood blocking the doorway of the lit
t'e shop and who had asked the ques
tion originally. “I don’t know of them
What are they for?" he asked.
When told that the liitle stickers
were Dbeing sold all over the United
States to raise mouey to prevent tuber
culosis the cobbler became very much
interested.
“Now. I call that a good cause.” he
drawled. I don’t write any letters, an}
[ don’t send any Christmas packages
There’s Just me and the ogl woman
left. 1 can't use my seals that way
but I'll tell you how I can use them. |
will stick a seal on the svole of every
shoe I tap.”
PRESIDENT WILSON ON RED
CROSS SEALS.
As an expression of his interest in
the Red Cross Seal and Anti-tubercu
losis Campaign President Wilson re
cently wrote to the Natlonal Associa
tion For the Study and Prevention of
Tuberculosis:
“May I not take this occasion to ex
press to yvou my deep interest in the
work of the National Anti-tuberculosis
association and my hope that its work
is growing in efficiency and extent
from year to year? May I not particu
larly expriss nry interest in the Red
Cross Christmnas Seal, whose sale has
been the means of raising funds for
the work?
“It seems to me that this is a par
ticularly interesting and sensible way
of enabling the people of the coun
try to give this great work their sup
port.”
SANTA CLAUS HAS TUBERCU
LOSIS.
On Christmas eve little Dorothy, pos
‘wsessed of the: whooping cough, was
doing some fancy whooping for com
pany that had come.
“Dorothy, dear,” the mother said.
“you must stop coughing or Santa
Claus won’'t come. If he hears yon
coughing he'll be afraid to come in.”
“I should worry,” Dorothy replied
showing full familiarity with modern
:xpression. “lle's got tuberculosis him
aelf.”
“Tiberculosis! Who told you Sants
Claus had tuberculosis?"’
“Oh, everyhody knows that, Don't
you buy tuberculosis stamps for him
every Christmas?”
