MARIETTA TRUST &
BANKING CO., MOVES

This week the Marietta Trust and
Banking Company moved into its
new quarters just across Winters
street from its old location. The
building has been remodeled in and
out and is one of the most beautiful
banking rooms to be found in the en-
tire country. The front of the build
ing is finished in white marble and is
as attractive and handsome as 81
metrical design and perfect workman
ship could make it. The interior is,
if possible, more pleasing than the
exterior. Marble, mahogany, brass,
and plate glass is about all that the
eye can see and every convenience
that modern ingenuity can devise has
been provided for the benefit of pa
irons In the front is a private room
for ladies with desks and chairs and
everything necessary for the trans
action of banking business. The
vault is made in two sections, one
for the bank and one for safety de-
post boxes for anyone desiring an
absolutely safe place to store i'm
portant papers, your will, insur-
ance policies, bonds, stocks or any
documents of value.
The entire idea has been to provide
safety and comfort for the large
number of patrons of this strong fl
nancial institution, and the officers
of the bank are certainly to be con-
graduated on their progressive spirit. |
An idea of the exterior can be
had from the page advertisement in
this paper, but we advise you to call
and see this handsome bank the next
time you are in town.

EPWoRTH LEAGUE SOCIAL.

The Epworth League of the Meth
odist Church held its monthly social
meeting at the home of the presi-
dent, Mr. Mayes Frey, Thursday ev-
ening. About sixty young people
were present, and Mr.. and Mrs. Frey
simply threw open the doors of their
pretty little home and gave 1t over
to the young folks. The house was
prettily decorated with sweet peas
gathered from Mrs. Frey's own little
flower garden. Tables for Rock and
Up Jinks were in the reception room
and on the large porch. Old-fashion-
ed games such as Proposal and
"Solemn Occasion were also played I;
but it was not Solemn occasion"
as their merriment was unrestrained.
Miss Ruth Stephens and Miss Dobbs
always ready to "do their bit" toward
making such events enjoyable, sat
at the piano almost the entire even
ing and played popular music.
Miss Lillian Teipel and Mrs. Carrie
McLain served punch in a coy cor
ner of the porch, and sandwiches
were served by Misses Fannie Lou
Webb, Helen Griffin, Sarah Bishop,
Ruth Stephens, Marie Looney and
Mary Frances Gilbert.
During the course of the evening,
the swing, which was being occupied
by Mr.. Steve White, Miss Helen Grit
fin and several of the ''heavy-
weights, broke; but fortunately no
bones were broken.
The social was voted a success by
all present and will long be remem-
bered by the Leaguers.

BAPTIST S. S. PICNIC.

About two hundred were present
at the picnic given by the Baptist
Sunday School at Powder Springs,

all who made an effort to make the
day success. The Sunday School

seven new pupils last Sunday.
