Patton, by the members of the Presbyte-
tian Church, on last Thursday evening at
the residence of DR.. P. r. Cortelyou, was
largely attended and proved happy social
gathering. Mr.. Patton was glad to meet
the members Of his church and bid them
farewell before taking his departure to
the Holy Land. A great surprise to Mr..
Patton was the presentation OF a purse Of
$l7300, as token of the esteem of his
devoted flock. DR.. Cortelyou made very
beautiful presentation speech, to which
Mr.. Patton responded in some very touch>
ing remarks. During the evening, Betsy
Hamilton gave some enjoyable recita>
tons, and so did Miss Susie Buttolpk.
Refreshments were served and the oc.
casion will be pleasantly remembered.

There are people who discourage new
corners by all kinds of remarks, and try to
make them dissatisfied with the purchase
| of real estate, or make them think the
town is not good enough for them to live
in, and that they ought to have gone some>
where else. IT, you can't say good word
for Marietta and her people, don't say any
thing. For We have one Of the best towns
in Georgia, and no good word is said
amiss
| There are some men in the world who
are ready to live at the expense Of others
ard climb on the dement's of others. But
that is no reason why you should follow
their example. A man who succeeds
along legitimate lines and has in his
heart the feeling that he never intentionally
harmed his fellow men, is happy mortal.
| Undeserved riches and undeserved honors
will eventually become crown of thorns,
unbearable to wear.

imprisonment, lynching, desolate homes,

loudest sometimes owe their standing in
society to his forbearance.
