FOR COUNTY Commissioners

To the Citizens and Voters of the
First Road District of Cobb Co., Ga.
After mature consideration | have
decided to offer myself as a candi-
date for county commissioner from
the first road district, Cobb County.
Georgia, subject to the Democratic
primary, September, 18th, 1918,
with a desire to serve my county at
a time when / feel that we have
reached crisis in it's affairs.
Our county is now spending ap-
proximately $125,0OO. annually of
the taxpayers money and in my hum
BILE opinion every section of the coun-
ty should be represented in the ex-
penditure of these funds pro-rata as
to the amount paid in.
If the voters elect to place me on
the commission will endeavor to full
ly cooperate with other members of
the commission and assist all the
other branches of the county govern
ment and refrain from debating as
to the management of the other Of
flee holders elected by the people.
l solemnly state that l have no
axe to grind, no relatinos who are
seeking county jobs through my in
fuence, no special interest to serve,
no political debts to pay. 1t being
my desire to serve the people of the
county as a whole and not be dicta-
ted to by any one man seeking to con-
troll all county affairs. 1t will be
my earnest desire to assist in placing
our county and its affairs on high
er plane and make our county obh-
cations worth 100 cents on the dol
lar.
On this open policy platform l
seek the support, influence and vote
of every tax payer in the first district
and assure you that your vote will
be highly appreciated.
Respectfully
r. Doss Delk.

YOUR IDLE HOUR

If you are out of sorts with the
world, and out of tune with life,
there is no better way to restore your
mind and give you rational view of
things as they are, than an hour at
a good picture show.
By the same reasoning if you are
in the abundance of joys and con-
tentment, what better place could
you find to spend '"The End of Per-
feet Day" than at the Strand Theater.
On Friday and Saturday and on
ench day of next week there is con-
tinuos round of the very best pictures
by the masters of the art.
On Friday, Douglas Fairbanks,
On Saturday, William Farnum,
On Monday, Viola Dana,
On Tuesday, Rita Jolivet,
On Wednesday, Enid Bennett,
On Wednesday, Madge Kennedy,
On Friday, Geraldine Farrar
And in addition to these stars, the
bill is spliced every day by Charlie
Chaplin, Fatty Arbuckle, Travelogues
Screen kilograms, Cartoon Comedies
pictures from the front and all such
attractions
And yet is seldom indeed when the
price is above the regular one. You
can see at the Strand, in Marietta
for Is cents, the same pictures you
would pay 25 to $1.00 to see in At
lanta or New York.
All the films are new-the newest
and best that money and art can pro-
duce.
Then certainly the Strand is the
place to make your idle hour pleas
ant and a profitable hour.
