We felt that it was of so much in
terest that we have set up the entire
contents, except the illustrations of
course, and here it is:
A thriving little city of about three
thousand inhabitants is located in
Cobb County, twenty miles North of
Atlanta, on the Western and Allan
tic railroad, and is fast becoming a
popular Winter resort for Northern
tourists and invalids, and, as a Sum-
mer resort, offers peculiar attrac-
lions. Southern people discovered
long ago that Summer could be pas
sed as comfortably in Northern Geor-
gia as in New England, and Marietta
lis each summer filled with boarders
from the low country.
Immediately after the Southern Vi
sitors leave for home in the Autumn,
the Northern guests arrive for the
winter.
Elevated about eleven hundred feet
above the sea, Marietta is a perfect
paradise for that class of invalids
who fail to improve in the low alti-
tude of the extreme South. The wa
ter is freestone, pure and soft. The
drainage is perfect. The location is
charming. To the West, two miles
away, is the Kennesaw Mountain, ia
NOUS for its hard fought battles dur
ing the late war, rising to height
of nineteen hundred feet, with a view
from its summit that is seldom equal
led.
Climate.-To those requiring an
invigorating yet mild climate in win
ter, the region of Marietta is parti-
cularly desirable, it being between
the severe winter cold of the North
and the relaxing summer of the low
country of the South. It's altitude IA
vors mildness of winter, and it's alti-
tude GOODNESS of summer. 1t is cha
racterized by meteorological pecu-
liarity found nowhere else from the
Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic. No
where else this side of the Pacific
coast does so cool a summer accom-
pany so warm winter. Prof. Kerr,
the State geologist of North Caroli-
ma, treating of the Appalachians, or
the country east of them, writes as
follows: "The prevalent sweep of
the great westerly continental cur
rent preventing the access of the
damp and chill sea air from the east
and northeast; the cold northwest
winds being arrested and broken up
in their passage across the numerous
ridges of the Appalachians, among
which they are tempted by mingling
with the warm southwest current
that roll up the interior valleys; and
the humid southwest wind (plu-
vius auster) being drained Of its
excess of moisture and tropical heat
in the ascent of the long outward
slope, and later, the high tablelands
and lofty chains of the same noun
tain system on the northwest border,
so that none of the great continental
currents from the northeast, north
west, or southwest reach this region
till they are bereft of their original
and disagreeable characteristics. To

The Committee extends thanks to
the people of Marietta for their III
beral donations to the community
flag. We also wish to thank the city
Of Marietta for the donations of pipe
and other material for the erection
OF this flag pole. 1t is the purpose
of the committee with the assistance
of the City Fathers to place at the
top of this 1875 foot pole three large
incandescent lights, one red, one
white and one blue, to be raised at
night when the flag is down. We
were unfortunate in having the pole
to fall the first time it was raised
and caused US an extra expense of
$4,000. We have some outstanding
expense yet to meet and would ask
those who contributed and have not
paid to kindly call at the Marietta
Trust q Banking Company and pay
Mr.. Geo. H. Sessions. Anyone that
feels that they want to contribute
towards this community flag can yet
hand their contributions to Mr.. SEES

AN INTERESTING OLD
BOOK ABOUT CITY

Many Interesting Pictures
Of Old Scenes Found
In The Book.

Last week we received large en-

found letter as follows:
Gentlemen:
am sending you the enclosed book

may be of interest to some of your
residents.
Yours truly,
A. L. HILL.
Mr.. Hill is the proprietor of the
Commercial Printing Company, of st.
Augustine, Florida, and we wish to
herewith publicly express our thanks
for sending us the book.
The book was published by Geo.
H. Chaplin in 1885 and contains many
pictures of factories and residences
of Marietta.
Mr.. w. S. N. Neal says that he
does not remember that the book was
printed in the Journal office and the
name of the printing office does not
appear on the book. This is general
ly on the cover, which is missing, but
we have been able to discover one
old hand engraved wooden cut in the
office which is used in the book so
1t must have been printed in this of

DrOuth Harnesses Farmers.

1t has been many weeks since
there has been a rainfall of any
amount IN Muhlenberg, and this has
brought about condition which is
very disturbing. Farmers are hav
ing to drive stock and cattle to creeks
and rivers, in many instances being
miles from their farms, and so much
trouble has been encountered by
several that iaey have sold their cat
tie. As this scarcity Of water has
grown to be regular thing, and If
anything is getting worse, it is I'M
perative that every farmer who has
not sn adequate water supply, or is
near one, should provide pond. A
few days work would i,niIl q pond,
and would PROVE the best inVeat
ment the land owner could make.
Cattle could then get TO water at all
