NEW FOOT FADs.

The many modest women who have
strenuously objected to the daringly
short skirt have finally adopted 1t, but
only since the advent of the high
beet. so that now they complacently
wear skirts that are good II inches
from the ground. and it must be con-
fessed that not only are they most
comfortable, but decidedly youthful
looking, which is an advantage that is
not to be lightly set aside.
But what is milady of the modest
mien to do for evening? She is so
welded now to the abbreviated skirt
and its charms that for evening she
still desires to wear lacy affairs that
are quite as short, and what is both
ering her more is that they appear so
much shorter with the dainty evening
slippers.
She was really In despair until some
Ingenious person planned two lace
ruffles that are to be attached to the
siIken stocking. With scalloped
skirt and. dark slippers there is a
quaint appeal that takes one back to
the pictures of grandmother when
grandfather was counting her.

FINE ADDRESS BY
SENATOR HAR0W|CK

United States Senator Thomas w.
Hardwick addressed the Progressive
League of Marietta and Cobb County
at its regular monthly meeting Tues
day night He was the guest of
Solicitor General E. H. Clay for sav
eral days and the League took adj
vantage of good opportunity.
Senator Hardwick prefaced his re
marks with brief reference to his
friends here, and then covered all
the important questions of public in
terest in an address that met the ap-
prevail of every gentleman present.
There was not an unnecessary word
in his speech nor was there anything
lacking.
He paid the highest tribute to Pres
ident Wilson as president, statesman,
scholar and Democrat. He enumer-
ated the many trials and troubles
that have fallen to the lot of our
president and expressed the belief
that Almighty God had raised him
up to guide us through such trying
times. Senator Hardwick said that
he believed that the stand of the
President for humanity in both Mex
leo and the present crisis with Ger
many would be brought to a sue
cessful close, and without war.
He was opposed to Government
ownership and said that a merchant
marine would never be built for the
United States until such vessels could
be operated in competition with
other nations. High wages for sail
ors, he said, was the chief trouble.
He also was confident that the cot
ton situation brought about by the
Orders in Council of England would
be remedied be fore long, and that
the war itself would wear itself out
in the near future.

BOTH RUMORS FALSE.

There is rumor being circulated
around Marietta to the effect that
Judge N. A. Morris tried to help

other rumor is being circulated to
the effect that Judge Morris not only

mors is false and does Judge Nor
IT'S a great injustice.
While all of the trouble was going
on, Judge Morris, Messrs. John H.
BOSTON, w. A. Dupre, and C. H.
ffeyer, all of Marietta, were on the
west coast of Florida on fishing
ulp' and were nearly a thousand
miles from Atlanta.
Judge Morris left Marietta on the
ISth of June and did not return I'M

Long Beach, Fla, during all of the
excitement concerning Governor Sla-

Mr.. James Russell Brown was kill
ed instantly early Monday morning
by fast passenger train on the w.

not hear very we'll and was absorb
ed in counting hand full of money
when the engine struck him and
threw him with great force from
the track He was not mangled but
his neck and all his limbs were brok-
en-.
He was 81 years old and leaves his
wife and eleven children. The
daughters are Mrs. Charles Foster,
Mrs. Walter Larlew, Mrs. Rule Smith
and Misses Julia and Ruth Brown.

lam, George, Reuben, Louie and Wal
ter all being married except Louie

THE W. d A.

If the w. & A. railroad is going to
continue to block the progress OF
North Georgia as it has been for the
past forty years, we are in favor of
selling it. 1t will pay the property
owners of North Georgia to even give
it away. Every time a road is pro-
posed to be built through Northern
Georgia it is stopped by the State
if it should come within fifty miles
of the w. & A. In Middle and South
Georgia railroads are as thick as pig
trails in North Georgia, and all that
country is being developed and the
land owners are deriving much bene-
fit. North Georgia counties are the
richest in the state and all we need
is development and transportation
There are counties in North Georgia
without railroads and never will have
one so long as the state owns the w
& A. Sell it or give it away and let
the people in this section have an
outlet. No double some will disagree
with us but nevertheless this is
where we stand-Pickens County
Progress.
