| Wilkerson had expected and feared
this. He saw his wild efforts going

and her money he was helpless.

Of Dorr and his desire for the hidden

Of his failure to win this woman whom
he loved
Love Is noun which conveys to the
ordinary mortal no definite meaning
without an adjective. There is. indeed,
an essence Of love, complete and all
absorbing passion, before which even
the gods bow and against which the
world is powerless. Too often we
must describe 1t as lawless.
Yet 1t also exists when it evokes the
reverence of the most cynical. vii

FIRE AT MISS CROCKETTS.

Early Monday morning fire broke
out on the roof of Miss Crockett
house on Cherokee street but the
firemen soon put it out.
The origin of the fire was never
known. Water damaged the house
considerably but the insurance will
pay for the repairs so the greatest
injury is the shock to Miss Crockett
nerves and the drenching of the in
terror of her home.
Miss Crockett declares she never
appreciated the goodness of Mariet-
ia as a place of residence before this
fire. Her neighbors came in and
carefully removed rugs, beds and
furniture as if it had been their own
home that was burning.
Prominent business men worked
beside her cook and house maid and
every consideration was shown her
and her guests.
Mr.. Richard Bentley, of New York,
said he had never seen more capable
firemen anywhere.
Miss Crockett expresses her heart
felt thanks for all the kindnesses
shown her.

CORN AND CANNING
CLUBS HOLD EXHIBIT

On Tuesday the Cobb County Corn
Club of boys and the Cobb County
Canning Club of girls met in the
court house and exhibited the results
of their labors.
Col. John P. Cheney made brief
speech of welcome and then Hon.
Fred Morris made an address of adj
vice and encouragement to the boys.
Congressman Gordon Lee made an
address about corn clubs of which
he is a kind patron saint He thought
his own county was the best corn
county in the state but Cobb has the
largest corn club in his district. Mr..
Lee is on the agricultural committee
in Congress and is one of the best
friends the farmers have in Wash
ington.
He declares farmers are the best
asset the country has. He advised
the boys to feature an increasing
yield instead of simply the greatest
yield.
Congressman Lee will lead the pa
rade of corn and canning clubs at
the harvest festival in Atlanta. Hon.
Fred Morris will furnish the banner
to be carried by the Cobb County
club in the parade.
Col. Cheney examined the exhibits
OF the boys and declared the quality
of their corn is so per cent better
this year that it was last year.
The girls made very creditabIe ex-
hibits of vegetables, fruits, preser-
YES, pickles, relishes and jellies in
glass jars beside their tomatoes in
tin cans
Girls must be between 10 and IS
years old to be members of the can
ming clubs. Miss Ethel Landers
canned 1927 cans Of tomatoes and
sold only market baskets full of
fresh ones. Miss Maggie Hendrix
of Powder Springs, has 500 2 10
cans of tomatoes and has made $50.

PRIMARY FOR MAYOR
AND COUNCIL NOV. Il.

There will be primary for Mayor
and Council held in Marietta next
Thursday, Nov 18th, but, strange to
say, there are no tickets" this year.
Mayor Dobbs has not made an an
nouncement in the newspapers and
we are unable to say whether he
will be a candidate for reelection.
Mr.. Dobbs says that the extra ses-
sion of the legislature will occupy
his attention SO completely that he
will not have an opportunity to
make regular campaign.
Councilman Jim Brumby has
been waging an active campaign for
several weeks and his followers and
supporters claim that he will be
elected by a big majority over his
only announced opponent, Mr.. J.
Parks Groover, also a member of the
present council.
No ticket for Council has been an
nounced but several individual citi-
zens brought in their cards to the
Journal this week. They were not
received in order or in a bunch so
we were not able to get them all on
one page under regular announce
ment heading. You will find them
scattered all through the paper.
They are J. J. Black, Mack D. Hold
ges, Virgil McCleskey, Berry Osborn.
T. l.. Wallace, and Jim Groves.
