News is scarce this week on ac-
count of the snow and ice. Most OF
us Except the sleigh riders) have
been staying at home for the past
week. If we get out to walk we are
sure to fall down, our horses can't
travel. and if we start in a. car we
lust have to keep going, for If we
stop we are afraid the thing will
freeze up and we'll never get started
again. Therefore we are staying at
home.
Rest wishes to the Journal and its
readers, for a Merry Xmas and a
happy New Year.

To Our Country Correspond
erlts.

For two weeks we have
been short of country cor
respondence. We do not
know whether the unusual
" cold weather or some 9th
er reason is the cause of this,
hut the Editor takes this oc-
casion to say a few words to
our correspondents.
First we wish to our old
correspondents to continue
as such. We have not the
addresses Of some Of them,
and we would like to have
this. We would like to fur
nish all with stamps and sta
tionary, and to do all in our
power to make the work
pleasant and easy.
We feel the important of
this branch of our news, and
we would be glad to even
further extend it. We do
not ask you to send more
or to pad your news any fur
ther than you like, but keep
it up. We appreciate it and
we feel sure that your neigh
bors do also.
Second, we would be glad
to meet all our correspond
ents. You no doubt have oc-
casion to visit Marietta
sometimes, and we want to
ask you to come up to The
Journal Office, we are up
c+airs over the Marietta
Trust Bank, and tell us who
you are. We are meeting
daily a large number OF
Cobb County people, and
being yet a stranger to most
of them, it will take a little
while for us to meet them all.
But I will say right here, We
are not going to stay strang-
ers. If we do it will be your
fault. | am anxious to meet
and to know all the folks in
Cobb county, and they are
all welcome to The Journal
Office, but to our correspon-
dents we extend a special IN
vitation at this time or any
other time.
We wish for you health,
wealth, and happiness.
and all the joys Of the sea-
son.

MAIN STREET

l like to look at the blossomy track of
 the moon upon the seat But it isn't half so fine a sight as
 Main street used to be When it all was covered over with a couple Of feet of snow. And over the crisp and radiant road
 the ringing sleighs would go. Now. Main street bordered with au-
 tumn leaves, it was pleasant
 thing,
 And it's gutters were gay with dande- lions early in the Spring; I like to think of it white with frost or dusty in the heat, Because l think it is humaner than any other street. God be thanked for the Milky Way that runs across the sky, That's the path that my feet would tread whenever l have to die, Some folks call it a Silver Sword, and some Pearly Crown, But the only thing I think it is, is Main Street, Heavenlytown.

 the volume of work dcne here com pares fayoraoly with some of the 1 largest film producing studios of the
 country.
 While hundreds of photographs fer use in the factory are made yearly.
 still the greater part of the work of ! the photographic department has 10 l do with the procuring, preparation and distribution of these historical educational films The historical sun- iects include comprehensive views ot the larger cities of the country in which the principal points of interes,.

 Because of the peculiar prominence

FORD EDUCATIONAL PICTURES
 HAVE INTERESTING HISTORY

from the beginning until the finished product is ready for the user
 The film is of value not only to the casual observer who is merely curious to know how the Ford car is made. but to the expert along mechan- ical lines who wishes to study the methods that are employed to make possible the production of more than three thousand cars each day-an ac- complishment that has no parallel in the mechanical world.
 Another film that is always in de- mand is that which shows the meth ods the Fold company is employing t. safeguard it's 56, COG Workmen. In this field of activity. as well as many oth- ore, itt Ford company is leading the way and for this reason its methods are watched with keen interest. The work Of instTucting foreign born em- ployes in the Fundamentals of the English language, mathematics. his tory, geography, etc, as carried on by the Ford English school, has also been filmed and d very keen demand for the film has resulted. The work of this school is unique in every par ticular and it's filming is of particular value.

 Theaters are net the only places in which the Ford educational and his tor;cal films are shown. Because of their peculiar interest and value to students, they are finding a greater field each day in the schools and col leges of the country while many penal institutions have found in the Ford films q solution of their problem of entertaining and instructing the met Iy means of motion pictures, without fear Of degrading them by showing phases of life with which the priso4 inmates have been only too familiar in the past.
