Uncle Gid Morris sent the Journ-
al some fine white potatoes few
days ago. Each one is big enough
to fill a dish, when creamed, suffi-
Gent for small family. With such
farmers as we have in Cobb County
no editor in their midst ever lacks
for good things to eat. Mr.. Morris
must have raised his potatoes on
the land he dynamited some time
for they certainly had room to
grow

Mr.. L. B. Robson has arrived
home from his visit to Botson AMI
New York and declares the south
is more fortunate than the north in
the matter of living expenses. In
Boston coal is $12 a ton but that
may be the hard coal which lasts
while burning so much longer than
soft coal does. Our winters being
shorter and rents cheaper is also
an advantage we have over the
north.
The birthday of uncle Remus"
was celebrated in Atlanta Monday
afternoon by two clubs The Jour-

ed WARNINGS from the Wren's
Nest" which was suggested by the
Uncle Remus stories and is very
melodious and catchy.
