D, ANDERSON, ] M;!T%pllfer-;:ee in' Bankrthcyn - April 4th, 1917 IDOCTORED DOCTOR INDUCED TO STAY HERE AWHILE. Waen is a doctor not a doctor? ‘Why when he is doctored, of course, ! : Now that is not meant for , a joke for the medical profession is a® serious business and being such it caused a doctor wno was not a doctdr to spend more time in Mari etta than nis advertisement called for. ; The trouble camé about this way. Several times in the past few months the Marietta Journal has re ceived advertisements to be publish led for the “United Doctors’ of some Ohio town and these have been ‘prompﬂy consigned to the waste ’basket. We don’t like to print stuff ;that we do not know where it comes ’from and the last time it came, al though check was enclosed, we *promptly returned the whole mat ter and declined to publish it. ‘However another local paper pub lished the ‘““Ad.” and when the ap pointed time came both the ‘“doc tor” and some customers were on hand. There was also on hand a prominent local physician who had been advised by the State medical authorities to look into the travel ing physicians qualifications. On being questioned the *‘doc tor” declared that he had been to the court house to ‘‘register” but found no one to give him authori ty. He claimed to be Dr. Henley, a well known physician of College Park, and when he was told that only a few minutes before Dr. Hen ley had been communicated witn by telephone he then declared that he was working under authority of Dr. Henley. But this statement was refuted by Dr. Henley. Finally seeing tnat he was caught the ‘““doc tor” confessed that he was not a doctor at all alhough he had attend ed a medical ¢ollege but had never graduated. An invitation therefore was pre pared and personally delivered .to nim by the Sheriff requesting his company at dinner in the jail. The invitation was reluctantly accepted and the Sheriff being much more friendly than any friend the doctor could locate he decided to spend tne week-end and possibly longer. In fact the sheriff declined to allow ais guest to leave unless sufficient as surance was given that he would re turn again, and as this assurance has not yet been given tne ‘““doctor” is still the guest of Mr. Swanson, but at the expense of the County. So dear reader, heed this and be ‘ware. : QUARTERLY REPORT OF THE 'WOMAN’S BENEVOLENT ASS’N. During December 1916 the num-- ber of families assisted were 41.

The hall was filled to the doors and many stood taroughout the exercises. The stage was decorated with handsome ferns and the rear wall held an effective arrangement of college pennants in many bright colors. | The exercises opened wita a song by a group of High School girls in white middy blouse cos tumes, and this same chorus sup plied several other numbers during the evening. | Miss Cecile Hill was the firstgme? cof the piano contestants to appeari and rendered tne Second Mazurka by Goddard with ease and gracec. Miss Christine Blair recited "The; Corsican Vendetta'” in an impas-‘ sioned manner and with telling ef fect. ?

Miss Helen Faw the only contes tant who entered for both music | and expression, played Mendels—l schn’s Rondo Capriccioso in a way that almost created a tie in the‘ judge’s decision, and for whicqn 83101 Iwon honorable mention. ¢ | Archie Sessions, a pupil in li):-‘ pression, gave Graves’ Eulogy on| Grady’’—a fine rendition of a fine subject.

Students at the Massachusetts In stitute of Technology made a dum my of LaFollette, tagged it that all migit know_it was LaFollette and then on the edge of the Charles river basin, set it on fire. Long lines of students executed an In dian war dance about the burning LaFollette, meanwhile singing and jeering. } A lone pacifist, the only one in ‘the dormitories, pleaded the burn flng man’s cause. The students ‘gathered about aim and endeavored to change his views by argument, The endeavor failed and the pacifist was held under a cold shower bath until he became beligerent.—Atlan ta Journal. : GOVERNMENT ENGINEER AT WORK ON DRAINAGE PROJECT Engineer Phillips of the United States reclamation service is now in Cobb county witn a crew of men making a survey of the property near Acworth where the big drain age ditch is to be made.

COURIER, ESTABLISHED 1901 The most patriotic move ever made by the business men of any town begins in this issue of The Marietta Journal. Last week we announced that we would open a big “TradeqlnfMarietta” campaign and we invited the business men of tne City to join us. They have done it and the campaign will continue for six months during which time we believe the people of this terri tory will understand thoroughly tone advantage of buying at home. The campaign will consist of a series of editorials carefully prepar ed and printed in large clear type for easy reading. HKach week one of these progressive men will point out in plain, clear cut language just why he toinks you should buy from locai merchants, Not one of them will name an ar ticle in his stock or a brand of goods that he carries, but will simply state the facts as he sees them. This is real patriotism in merchandis ing. : Furthermore the Marietta Jour nal will print a Jarge supply of tae ptedges published last week and you can sign one at any of the places of business named in the first edi torial of the series on page six of this paper. In addition to this we will give $5.00 away each month as explain ed in the notice below, 5 NO. 14.
