NEWSPAPER WOMAN IN
ALPHARETTA

Last week the Free Press was
really delighted when Mrs. Annie
Carter, the bright editor of the Ma
rietta Journal, accompanied by Miss
Grace Timothy, a" a"stenographer and
typist, broke in like a ray of sun
shine and frightened our office.
Mrs. Carter is one of the brightest
and most interesting and efficient
editors in the state. She is making
the old Marietta Journal one of
the best newspapers in Georgia, and
we believe her efforts are appre-
ciated by all the people of Cobb
county and especially the business
men of Marietta We very much ad-
mire the pluck and energy shown by
this distinguished Georgia woman,
and here's hoping the Journal will
continue to succeed. ."-Alpharetta

A PRISON CONCERT

Mr.. and Mrs. Len Baldwin motor
ed to the federal prison near At
lanta last Sunday afternoon to hear
the music of the orchestra which Is
composed of 80 prisoners. Although
no cars were running the hall was
full. Admission is by tickets given
by the warden of the prison. He
buys all the guards uniforms from
MT, Baldwin who has therefore a
standing invitation.
The musicians are taught and al
lowed to practice and their beauti-
full melodies bless both themselves
and their hearers. A concord of
sweet sounds" soothes troubled
hearts and echoes in memories like
the fragrance of roses.
These prisoners wear blue over
alls instead of the hideous convict
garb that crushed all hope from the
heart.
The prison band wears an all
white uniform that puts self res
pect into their hearts. Our Uncle
Sam seems to have adopted a policy
If not motto of "noblesse oblige"
and is lifting up and healing the
down-trodden and wounded.
Mrs. Baldwin told us many in
teresting things about the innova-
tions in prison methods of discipline
which we cannot reproduce but if
you ever have a chance to hear these
convicts play do not miss it.

SHOSHONE DAM IN TOWN

Marietta friends of the Coles
were thrilled with awe and pride
Tuesday afternoon when the Gem
theater displayed views of the great
Shoshone Dam in the mountains OF
northern Wyoming. This magni-
ficient reclamation work was done
under the supervision of Mr.. Web
ster Cole, son Of Mrs. H. G. Cole, of
Marietta, and will stand for ages as
a monument to his engineering skill,
his persistence and his ability to
lead men-not drive them. He ac-
complished this great work after it
had been abandoned as impossible
by two or three engineers. Mr.
Marchman was fortunate in secur-
ing this fine attraction for the Gem.

SENATOR SMITH AT ROYSTON

The Elberton Star gives the fol-
loving report of a speech recently
delivered by Senator Hoke Smith at
Royston:
No speaker who has ever appear
ed before Royston audience has re-
.ceived more close attention than ac-
corded Senator Hoke Smith Tuesday
evening. He spoke for more than an
hour and half, discussing at
length the legislation on rural cred =
its, the regional banking system, the
new contract under which Wall St.
is forced to do business as compared
to the old the Smith-Lever bill and
what it meant for the country; the
good roads legislaBon and other
bills which have been beneficial to
the people of the Southland. Sen
atOr Smith explained the insurance
of cotton in 1914 which has been so
severely criticised in some quarters,
and showed that not only was the
insurance policy of government a
good thing for the cotton farmer,
but at the same time instead of rob
bing the people to pay speculators, -
as has been charged by some, that
this little business undertaking of
the government had earned a net
profit to Uncle Sam of two million
dollars. He dwelt at length upon
the legislation enacted for the bene-
fit of the farmer, and to the demo-
cratic party he gives credit for more
good wholesome legislation in the
farmers behalf than had been en-
acted before in numbers of years, if
ever. The senator concluded his re-
marks with tribute to Woodrow
Wilson, commanding the president
for his action in regard to Mexico,
and all foreign nations, and assert
ing truly that he is one OF the
greatest presidents the country eyer
knew.
The speech throughout was well
received, not a word being uttered
in regard to state politics, but be-
ing confined to national legislation
for the geod of the masses"

QUIEN SABE?

A prominent Baptist ID. ID. once
preached a fine sermon at a church
in Atlanta on the two sayings: "If
you want a thing done do it yourself
and if you want a thing done, don't
do it yourself" He had tried the
first way in his youth and the Sec
ond in mature life This sermon
came to mind a few days ago when
we met a prominent citizen going
home about half past in the morn
ing with plumbers tools in each
hand and grim determination in his
countenance. He remarked briefly
as he hurried on: Something al
ways needs to be tightened up in a
new place" and we are still wander
ing whether that man will continue
to believe the first half of the
preachers text after he leaves the
heights to journey down life's wes-
tern way.

mEATLEss SAUSAGE

In Germany they are eating 'meat-
less sausage" a compound prepared
by a German chemist, which looks
like wienerwurst, tastes like wiener
wurst, and will keep indefinitely.
II this high cost of living keeps up
we in America will need "meatless
sausages," and meatless lots Of other
things. Already have we meatless
hash; we may count on meatless
roast beef, and meatless chicken loaf,
not to speak Of wheatless bread, and
sugarless syrup.
We think it would be good idea
for the Deutschland, on her return
to New London, to bring over the Sc
cret German formula for meatless
meat products. Doubtless, some Of
the Chicago packers would pay for
tune for it.-Bismarck Tribune.
