Banquet the Capital City Guards q
the ElmwOOd Hotel.

The Capital City Guards in passing
through Marietta last week. marching to
Chickamauga Park, spent the night tents
ing in the grove near Brumby's Chair
Factory.
The Marietta Rifles with their truly
noble and generous spirit that has always
characterized them, extended every cour>
tesy to make :heir entry and stay in our
city pleasant.
A squad met the Guards near town and
escorted them to their camp. At night
the Guards, with few citizens as invited
guests, were entertained by the Rifles
with magnificent and sumptuous ban>
quet at the Elmwood Hotel
Mr.. c. III. Gere, the clever and enter,
prising manager of the Elmwood, had the
dining hall decorated with flags, while
Chinese lanterns were suspended from the
verapda in front of the hotel. He showed
skill and good taste in the management
and supply of the spread that was very
complimentary and creditable. The menu
cards were neatly printed and were pref
aced with the folio wing: Dinner by the
Marietta Rifles. Complimentary to the
Capital City Guards on their long and ara

When the companies and guests were
seated, Capt. s. V. Sanford, of the Mariet
ia Rifles made the address of welcome.
1t was one OF the most appropriate and
excellent speeches we ever heard. In
diction and beauty of thought it would
have done credit to the head and heart of
the immortal Grady.
Capt E. W. Hewett, OF the Capital City
Guards, in response said that he had never
made speech in his life, but he brought
along Lieutenant W. J. Parks, who was
gifted in that line Lieutenant Parks
response was gem and happily rendered,
expressive of appreciation OF the warm
welcome extended them.
At the conclusion If the feast of good
things, speeches were called for and Editor
Neal, of the Marietta Journal was the
FIRST victim for these callers. He respond
ed with few remarks. Hon. A. S. Clay
was called for and favored the military
boys with one of his enthusiastic speeches,
which was we'll received and applauded.
Mayor Holland, in response to calls, made
fine speech; 80 did Judge Gober, who
always says the right thing at the right
time. The occasion was one Of enjoy.
ment aud creditable to the Marietta Rifles
After nights rest and slumber the
Capital City Guards early Thursday
morning turned their faces and began
their tramp nortkwarG.

Every farmer who farms is sure
of a living, which is more than can
be said OF ilany OF the other avoca-
tons of this busy world, but one Of
the greatest mistakes made is that
almost anybody is fit for a farmer.
A man who does succeed at anything
else will not make q good farmer,
which accounts for so many failures
in agriculture and the oit-repeated
howl that farming does not pay.
