Mutt and jeff Play
Here Next Tuesday.

The announcement that Mutt
& Jeff, Bud Fishers original
creation, will show here next
week at the Grand Opera House,
has been received by theatre
goers with the pleasantest anti
cipations and the indications are
that it will draw the largest
crowd that has ever turned out
to play in the new opera house.
Mutt & Jeff, of course, needs no
introduction, because even the
little tots in knee trousers, and
kits know them when they see
their pictures in the newspapers
and bill boards. The show has
received splendid press comment
in the South Georgia cities they
have made this season, and it is
said to be an up-to-date attrac-
ton. With sixteen pretty cho-
rus girls, and artisctic scenery,
it will prove the sensation of the
season in the theater line.
Tickets are now on sale at
Adams, and they are selling fast.
Get yours while there are some
good ones left.

500 Lbs. Pecans Off
Of Two Trees.

D. U. Mclean, near Wray, has
gathered 500 lbs. of nuts off of
two trees. The trees are 10
years old, and were planted for
ornaments. The investment is
no doubt satisfactory, as the
price of pecans is 40 cents per
pound. There is an unlimited fu-
ture to the pecan industry, and
isolated cases like this are proof
of value of the nut industry as
an investment.
