and ventilated and no pupil will be subs

The laying of the corner stone of the
new public school building was carried out
by the Masonic fraternity last Friday ats
ternoon, Notwithstanding continued rain
tall. Grand Master Shannon. of Elberton,
conducted the imposing ceremonies. There
were present many members of the differ
emf lodges of the county. The rain kept
our citizens away. But for the rain, the
long line Of Masons would have been SWELL
ed by 800 school children, the Marietta
Rifles and several hundred of our adult
population. As it was there was q good
crowd present. After the ceremonies at
the building the Masons and citizens re-
paired to the Masonic building where adj
dresses were delivered. Those not deliv.

interest Of the people and the excellent
program prepared.

Messrs. Henderson q Austin, the con-

men of established reputation in their
business. The brick building was secured
after sharp competition, over fifteen com.

These buildings will be monument to
their skill.

me to meet the citizens OF Marietta whose

feel sure will add more to her reputation
than any other enterprise that she could
have set On foot.
