Ten cent cotton has been blessing
to the farmers of this section. They
have realized more money and paid
more debts than they have in any one
| year in long while. The crop is short
but the price compensated them to a
point that makes them feel good and
grateful. Our Cobb county farmers
are in good fix and if cotton would bring
ten cents every year, the condition of
the people would be the best of any
under the sun.

tising is the most effective means OF
achieving publicity.

Atlanta's recent municipal primary
was dirty, disgraceful affair, where
the candidates for mayor, in order to
curry favor with voters, tried to de-
stroy one another's character and rep
utation. To climb into office by such
means, it seems to US, would carry nc
honor with it. If a man cannot go into
office on his own merits, he had better
stay out and retain his self-respect.
The flagman on northbound passen-
ger train, 9:04 o'clock Saturday morn
ing, in attempting to get aboard as the
train moved off, missed the step and
his foot struck the wheel. He finally
pulled up on the steps. His escape
from being mangled was very narrow
A gentleman was standing on the steps
in mis- way and was the cause of his
missing the step.
The most remarkable thing about Ma
rietta is the large number of people who
ownstheir homes. Fifteen and twenty
years ago many who were renters are
now owners of the roof that shelters
their heads, and in q number OF instan-
ces, they own elegant mansions. This
fact tells the tale of progress made in
worldly gain, and shows thrift and
economy.

bales. The man who holds his cotton
will get II cents for it. But shrinkage
and storage will even things up, so as
long as man can get 10 cents for his
cotton he is doing well.
