April Goth is the eighth-second ami

Fellows in America. In that time about
two and a half millions of members
have crossed the threshold of the or
der, about 100000 of whom have died
and been buried by the order. Over
$3.50 900, 10000 have been distributed in
relief, of which a large portion was
paid to more than 100000 widowed
families. During these years the mem
bers of this grand order have paid into
its treasury not less than 1925 100000.
There are now nearly one and one
fourth million members enrolled in the
subordinate and Rebekah lodges. They
are scattered over nearly the entire

DEATH OF MIR. JOE COLLINS.

Mr.. G J. Collins died at his home
near Marietta on last Thursday morn
ing about 1925 o'clock. aged SO years
He had been sick some SIX weeks. He
was born in Monticello, Fla, and came
to this city from Tallahassee a number
of years ago, and was in the employ of
the Kennesaw Marble Company as mas
ter mechanic. His mother, Mrs. j. B.
Collins, and brother, Mr.. r. L. Collins,
of Tallahassee, Fla, were at the bed
side when ne died.
He was happily married to Miss An
ME Kendrick few years ago, who sur
wives him with one child.
The deceased was most excellent
young man, moral, upright and genial,
and esteemed by all who knew him.
His funeral took place Friday morn
ing at the family residence, Rev. A. J.
Morgan, of Smyrna, officiating. His
remains were carried to Acworth for
interment. Being member of the

hours time to attend the funeral of Mr..
G. J. Collins.
Rev. A. J Morgan, who officiated at
the funeral, was also the officiating
minister at the marriage of Mr. Collins
and Miss Kendrick.
We tender our sympathy to the be-
reaved family.

THE PASSING OF THE GID TEMPLE.

Last week workmen began 90 tear
down the steeple on the old Metho-
dist church on Atlanta street, prepara-
tory to converting the old building in
to modern opera house, the property
having been bought by Mr.. Joe j. Black
and Judge Geo. f. Gober for that pur-
pose.
The old Methodist church will under
go, outside and inside, radical trans
formation, and will pass away as to it's
name and former purpose
Its history is part of the record of
Methodism in Marietta, where con-
tiicts with sin and satan have been
fought and victories won. Here grand
men consecrated to the service of God
have prayed and preached. and sung
praises to the King of Kings; here men
and women and children have found
the peace that passeth understand
ing, and been emancipated from the
thralldom Of sin into the "maryelous
light and liberty" of the redeemed. and
gone out into the world and welded
an influence that moulds character and
makes destiny here many fair Young
brides, crowned with wreathes Of
orange blossoms, have plighted their
troth to the men of their choice here the
funerals of our beloved dead have been
preached, and the widows weeds have
marked the brow of sorrow: here the
peals of marriage bells and the knell of
death have been heard, and civil and
Divine institutions have been observed
in tears and smiles, joys and grefs.
tears of pentence for sin, lamentations
over the dead and joys over the newly
mated.
The passing away of the old church
editice will cause pang of sorrow in
many hearts, for around it cluster
memories sweet and sacred.
But decay and change is written on
everything Times gnawing tooth and
the progress of civilization made if
necessary that a building in keeping
with the growth of Methodism should
be erected, and the Marietta Metho-
dists have made sacrifices of time and
money and constructed modern tenn
pie, more in conformity with the de-
mands of enlarged usefulness and the
comfort and convenience of Worship
ers, rejecting credit upon their liber-
atty, and stands a monument to Chris
tianity and the only true God.
Inc new structure will make history
also, and become as dear to the present
generation as the old was to those who
nave spent many happy hours within
us sacred precincts, and the old building
/ VIII be a pleasant memory, while tho
new Will prove a present benediction.
