the end counter next to the window had
caught fire and were badly damaged be-

fire. The damage is placed at a rough es-

is covered entirely by insurance.
ThomastOn Times: Mrs. w. S. Johnson
OF this place is the possessor Of some
very interesting relics, which, through
her courtesy and kindness we have been
permitted TO look through. They con-
sist OF albums and scrapbooks, collected
and put together during and Immediately
after the war OF secession. The albums
contain short writings either original or
selected, mostly by soldiers on the field
or at some station Many of these also
had attached TO the page flowers, grasses
or small pieces OF wood taken from some
historic spot or the grave of some dead
hero, who had laid down his life for THE
lost cause" one of the books was filled
with scraps OF cloth, both for men and
ladies' wear which had been spun and
woven at home, many of them having
the names of the fair weavers attached.
Amongst other things was sampler,
such as was used by our grandmothers
for learning the stitches of fancy work.
This one bore the date of the year 1924.
Through the fundamentally of Gov.
Northen, manager or the Georgia bureau
of investment and immigration, another
large colony plan has been formulated,
which will be known as the Penn-Georgia
Colony Company, and which purposes to
twenty-five miles below Macon, 1900 acres
in extent, in Twiggs county, ON the Oc-

many other plans Of a similar nature, but
will be operated as a whole; the members
Of the colony doing the labor necessary to
raise the crop, and each sharing accord
ing to his holdings of stock in the common
profits. The idea, therefore, is commun-
istic, and much interest will center upon
the outcome of the experiment. Commun-
istically only, however, is the plan an
experiment, for the Penn-Georgia Colony
will begin arrangements for occupancy at
an early date.
Ashburn Advance: William, poor fell
low, now has to give up that girl he
stole two weeks ago. Under his gourd
vine and fig tree failed to be a peaceful
abiding place for her and she bundled
up her doll rags and returned to the home
of her father. Twelve days-just twelve
short days-and their happy state of
matrimony came TO an untimely end
He built his plans on a married life
the wife stepped aside and his hopes
fell fiat to the ground. The cloud that
had a silver lining for this young couple
was turned wrong side out and now the
dark side is to them on Thursday of
out to help him plant corn, and a run
away was the result. She left the field
without warning, tore up their marriage
VOWS and sent back for her things. For
an excuse she said she never loved Will
lam and never told him she did. He said
But the result remains the same they
have parted and not likely to go back
together. Her parents received her as
their daughter again.
