Suit Styles Not To
Change So Noticeablv

The woman who bought a good
looking tailored suit late last sea-
son will have cause to congratulate
herself upon the fact that the suit
styles have not changed so radically
during the past six months. and that
her suit, if reasonably plain, may
slip through AT least part of anoth-
or season.
The lines Of the coats and the long
separate wraps are to be about the
same. the side-button effect to be ey-
tremely popular. The long coat will
be indispensable with the separate

An Outrage That
Breeds Trouble

Tuesday night some miscreants
perhaps filled with bad liquor en-
tered the colored church on the
road to Ocilla and began a full
SADIE on the assembled negroes
holding their Christmas festivi-
ties. One negro was seriously
wounded. It is a menace to the
peace of the community to have
some irresponsible fellows create
race hatred b Y disturbing a
peacefully assembled gathering
of men, women and children and
in their unbridled lust for blood
jeopardize the good feeling that
exists between our colored labor
add the planters of the commun-
ity. A reward has been offered
by a leading citizen and it is to
be hoped that the suspects will
be brought to trial.
A similar act again was mar
rowly avoided Wednesday night
by the appearance on the scene
of Sheriff Norris and Mr.. R.
V. Handley. The parties at this
latter assault are well known
citizens of Irwin County and the
next Grand Jury is likely to look
after their case. Unless the law
abiding citizens will protect their
negro laborers in their lawful
rights it will be serious handi-
cap in keeping farm labor on the
farm.
