WATERWORKS SYSTEM
LOWERS INSURANCE
Marietta People to Pay Less
for Fire Protection

1t is claimed by the Water Board
that a seventy or eighty pound pressure
will be secured for the city's new water
supply, and that this will at all times
be maintained.
If this is true-and there is no
reason to doubt it-Marietta will get a
rate OF insurance far below what has
heretofore been paid. While it IS
hardly probable that the classification
of the town will be changed by the
South Eastern Underwriters Associa-
ton, still the rate will be SO fixed that
it will be far less than now paid. This
would mean that we would still be rated
in the third class, but would have de-
creased premiums on account OF the
protection afforded by the new system
Of waterworks and the recently estab-
lished fire department. Or, putting 1t
another way, the city would really get
the rate allowed in second class towns,
plus slight deficiency charges on ac-
count OF the absence OF fire alarm
system, paved streets, etc.
1t is reasonable to suppose the fire
insurance people will readily give the
city everything to which it is entitled.
The city government ard the citizens
have at all times shown a disposition
to do all in their power to mitigate
the fire hazard, and the record OF the
town in that regard is as good as other
towns OF its class in the state.

"Her name is Estelle Williams. She
is II years old and the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. J. L. Williams, of Smyrna.
On December 10 she was carried to the
hospital more dead than alive with
her body in many places charred to a
crisp from having ignited her dress
while trying to start a fire to warm her
younger brother and sisters.
ga place on her right side and hip,
larger than the brim of mans hat,
was blackened like charcoal, and crum-
bIed off at a touch. Another large
place on her left thigh was burned the
same way. In three or four more places
the skin was so badly burned that it
had turned yellow and crisp, like a
piece of scorched paper.
Confronted with this fearful con-
dition, the physicians saw there was
only one chance to save her-by the
skin-grafting operation. They knew,
too that it was a fOrlorn hope. But
they took courage and set to work with
all their skill, and today the sweet
child is we'll and happy.
"Six operations it took to save her.
Each time she took the anasthetic, and
each time new skin was grated on
several places. Each time her trail
body was put to an awful strain, and
each time recovering from the anas-
thetic, she grew deathly sick.

is the most remarkable recovery OF its
kind they ever saw. Many grown

they say,
THURSDAY was the child's last day
at the hospital. Her happiness was
wonderful. The nurses romped with
her on the lawn as if they, too, had
been children. She is favorite with
them all. Every few moments one
would stop, catch up the child in her
arms. hold her close and kiss her. She
would come back to see them often,
she said, as she told them goodbye
