the Importance of providing well for
our city schools.
Taxes.
The burden of paying tax is upon
every citizen. To levy and collect tax
es is an easy task for the Mayor and
City Council, but we should remem-
Der that the burden falls heaviest ON
those who are required to respond in
dollars. Low tar, cheap water cheap
| lights, limited expenses in operating
the city's business, in my Judgment,
are important matters. which we
should carefully safeguard. No one
thing will advance our city more rapid
ly and asubstantial way than for
| the business man, investor, capitalist,
| iaborer and all classes of people to
know that they are not to be over
whelmned with high tax in doing
| business in Cordele.
Appropriations.
| recommend that each department
of the city government be properly
cared for, and that the efficiency of
each be sustained with the necessary

earnestly recommend that the min

can be done and will not impair tue

NEW YORK. Nov. 13.-An under current of heaviness and uncertainty pervaded today's market, even though many stocks were strong at times and several new records were established. Trading was broad but fitful with in tervals of dullness during the inter mediate and later stages Price move ments were frequently so confusing as to indicate buying and selling of a conflicting character. Sentiment among the professional element seemed to favor lower prices, except in coppers, which again furnished the list with most of it's stability.
 The motors equipments and indus trials of varied descriptions were low CT by two to three points, and Central Leather made an extreme decline of S9s points from its recent meteoric rise.

The photoplay, "The Unfaithful
Wife," showing at the Isis today,
starring Robert B. Mantell with Gen
evieve Hamper, is one of the strong
est dramas that has ever come from
the celebrated William Fox studios.
1t deals with a woman loved by two
men, one of whom is already married
to her. The play was written by Mary
Murillo and produced under the direc-
ton of j. Gordon Edwards.

in this new realm of art. / believe
that photoplay, as produced by Mr..
Fox, offers greater opportunities for
histrion1c triumph than does the So
called legitimate stage of the present
day."
Mr.. MantelPs stage career has been
varied, and hence has called for the
utmost versatility. His first stage
successes were achieved in support of
various stars, but his own talents
soon transformed him into star him
self. His best known portrayals have
been Hamlet" "King Lear" 'tShy-
lock-" "King john" "Othello," "Louis
XI," Romeo" and "RicheIieu," al
though his triumphs have not been
confined to purely classic roles.

1aughable L-Ko comedy in one act,
entitled, "a Scandal at Sea-" and still
