MERITS THE BLUE RIBBON

G. W. Fleetwood, writing of the re-
union in the Rome Tribune Herald,
says:
Words fail us to tell of the hospi-
tally of the citizens of that lovely lit
tie city.
"The Goddess of hospitality Miss
Rambo, seems to have stretched her
bewitching hand over the entire county,
unloosening the latches of every home,
saying welcome, thrice welcome, to all.
Daughters of Marietta, as NOBLE they,
As any since creations earliest day.
''While Romans, with some reluc-
lance and pride, dislike to give the
''blue ribbon to Marietta, but under
all the circumstances, candor forces us
to yield. We have this consolation,
Rome set the pattern.

tractive sights on wheels. Miss Blair

Mr.. William F. Gay, of Newton coun-
ty, who wore Confederate jacket and
carried Joe Brown pike. Also had his
fathers cedar canteen and cartridge
box He was wounded 5 times and
spent half the four years of the war in
hospitals. One of his decorations bore
a picture of Winnie Davis. In his
pocket he carries photo of Miss Re
gina Rambo that was made. in Little
Rock. He declares our lovely Marietta
girl is next to Winnie Davis in the
hearts of the U. C.. V. Mr. Gay has
never missed reunion and never in
tends to as long as he lives. He eX-
poets to see the Panama exposition. He
is very entertaining talker and de-
clares Marietta is the greatest town of
its size on the map.
