NOTICE

To The People of Cordele:
wish to express my sincere thanks
for your expression of confidence in
electing me Mayor of our city and to
assure you that | shall discharge the
duties of the office rightly, justly and
impartially to the best of my iudg-
ment
Having just taken the oath to faith
| fully discharge the duties of Mayor
for the next two years I desire to call
! attention to the fact that all the city
! laws were made for the protection,
peace and prosperity of the people,
and should be enforced, otherwise the
purpose of municipal government is
a failure. One of the most important
laws we have is the one regulating
the speed of automobiles. We all
know this wise law is not observed
but is violated every day. The object
OF this law is to safeguard the lives
| and health of all cannot think
that those who violate this law rea-
| lie the gravity of such conduct, in
! jeopardizing the lives of the people
as well as exposing their own lives.
but that the law is violated unthought-
eddy. Those who violate the law GER
tainly do not desire to become eX-
posed to mental picture of killing
little child, a woman or any per-
son; but in violating and running at
a high rate of speed on the streets
and avenues they are daily exposed
to this very thing. Besides those who
violate should consider the law and
respect it for its own sake. The pro-
per object of city government is to
help every individual in Cirdele and
| have the most kindly consideration
for every person and would regret

"HEARrs oF THE WORLD

The seasons important attraction
at the Auditorium for two days be-
ginning with a matinee Wednesday,
Jan. 1st., will be the presentation of
David w Griffith's masterpiece of
film achievement, Hearts of the
World" which is still enjoying i'm
mense popularity in New York City,
where it has been running many
months In his latest screen play,
Mr.. Griffith has produced a consistent
everyday human play of startling con-
trasts The first part is the story
Of a French village in time of peace,
an attempt in small way to sug
gest the beauty of France, her streams
and pathways that the legions
If Caesar found beautiful centuries
ago. There is an attempt to sug-
gest the pure gold of her love, her
small troubles, her laughter and great
hopes. The heroes are humanity, the
villain, militarism. With this locale
rs a background, is introduced two
American families or artists, living
in France. The son and daughter of
each of these families, who are neigh
bors, fall in love. and are about to be
married. Then comes the war The
youth enlists with his French COM
rades, and the scenes change to all
the grim but thrilling spectacle of ac-
tual war, the battling legions of Brit
ish, French and German troops; roar
ing cannon bombarded and devasted
villages, refugees and captured French
villagers, which includes The Girl,
fiancee of the Boy fighting for France.
And so the French battlefields and
trenches but serve as a background
for the unfolding of what is describ-
ed as the Sweetest love story ever
told" truly romance of war and
patriotism. The players who accom-
panied Mr. Griffith included Lillian
and Dorothy Gish, Robert Harron,
Kate Bruce, Josephine Crowell, Robt
Anderson, George A. Siegmann, Geo.
Fawcett and Master Ben Alexander.
A large orchestra is carried by the
company presenting Hearts of the
World" to properly interpret the sup
erb musical score especially arranged
for the production.
