MANY TOOK EASTER
DINNER AT WINDSOR
Local Patronage Of Hotel IS
On Increase

A superb dinner, in an exquisitely
decorated dining room, was the Eas-
ter feature at Windsor Hotel on Sun
day.
Easter lilies and other fragrant
and beautiful reminders of the spring
season, were tastefully arranged in
the room. The table appointments
were all that could be desired. The
menu was not only elaborate, but it
was we'll served and typified the best
that the season and the art of the chef
could provide.
Many Americus folks were among
the guests, the local patronage being
| the best that has yet been accorded
the Windsor on a special occasion like
this.
Under it's new management the
Windsor is catering not only to the
travelling public, but also the public
at home, to those who enjoy such an
admirable service as a well managed
hotel can provide. That there will be
a greater appreciation of this fac
from now on is to be expected from
the increased patronage shown OF

Baptist church, which were SO en-
joyable last week, are being contin-

der the conduct of Rev. w. P. Pri:a. Nr

RESOLUTIONS
Of SYMPATHY
WERE ADOPTED
BY CITY COUNCIL LAST night
Relative to the Death Of Mrs.
]. E. Mathis

At last nights session of the city
council resolutions expressing the
sympathy of the city officials and the
people of Americus for Mayor j. J
Mathis and family on account of the
death of Mrs. Mathis recently, were
adopted by unanimous vote.
The text of the resolutions is a
follows:
Whereas, the angel of death has
invaded the home of our honorable
mayor, depriving him of his noble
and loving wife, his children of a de-
voted and affectionate mother and the
people of Americus of one of the most
charitable and gracious Christian wo-
men that has ever resided in their
midst, therefore be it
Resolved, That the City Council
of Americus, in behalf of the people
of Americus, extend to the husband,
her mother and children, most heart
felt sympathy in their sad affliction
and irreparable loss, and be it fur
ther
"8esolved, That a page of the miu-
utes of the City Council of Americus
be inscribed to the memory of Mrs.
Mathis and that a copy of these reso-
lutions be sent to the family and pub
lished in The Americus Times-Recor-
der and the South Georgia Progress

greatly strengthened by having these
additional players.
1t is reported that a large number
of Albany fans will come up to see
the game, and they are expecting their
team to win. The locals, howeve-,
will have strong aggregation in the
field and they will do everything in
their power to cop the games from the
visitors. The two games will certain
ly be interesting, to say the least.
When the locals line up against the
Albanians for the first game today,
the faces of several old players will
be seen. Among these are "Tippo'
Peddy, Vibert, Hoops, Dunn and 9th
ers. The team will be a tried and
fast one and will be worthy in every
way of the one that the visitors will
send up against it.
1t should rejoice the heart of the
fans to know that Baby Wilder, who
famed ten of Auburn's men in the
first game between the University OF
Georgia and that team Friday, will be
with the locals again this summer.

EXPENSE OF PRIMARY TO
BE PLACED AT MINIMUM
AS Result of Recent Meeting Here the Expenses May be
Cut as Low as $25-It is Practically Certain That
This Small Amount Will Pc Raised.

Quoted in the city at the moderate
cost of probably $25. If this be true,
then there will not be very much eS-
pense to be borne in the matter. II
is certain that the primary will not
fail here as the result of the failure
to raise the small sum of $25.
The date of the holding of the prl
mary will. of course, be identical with
that of its being conducted in the
other counties of the state, May =.
With this end in view the funds need
ed for the expenses will be raised
and gotten ready as soon as possibia ,
There seems no doubt now that Sum
ter county will have a presidentir
primary as will the other counties oi

Atlanta, Ga, April 8.-The baseball

played this week.
