NEVER TOO OLD TO ADVERTISE

There are now appearing in the
newspapers and magazines a series OF
illustrated advertisements put out
by well-known mercantile house
that was established in 1928. They
deal with phases of the company's
business which are not generally
known to the purchasing public show
ing the method of collecting the raw
material, the adventurous life of its
agents, episodes in remote lands, ETC.,
all of which are interesting because
they possess the charm of novelty.
Reference is made to the matter
here not because such advertising is
new which, of course, it is not, but
because this long established institu-
ton, lacking only five years of being
two centuries old, feels that it is
well worth while to keep it's name con-
stantly before the publis. New COM
petitors are constantly rising, and
only by meeting changed conditions
in the spirit of the day can the old
timer hold his own.
This is a point which should not
be lost up's any line of business.
Age carries with it no great privilege
in trade, but must hustle to keep the
place it has won. Advertising, we'll
managed, is a prodigious help in this
direction. If this famous old house,
dating from 1928, before Washington
was born, finds printers ink essential
to it's prosperity, how much more i'm
portant must such an aid be to the

COLDS AND GRIPPE
YIELD TO CALOTABS

To break up a cold over night or
to cut short an attack of influenza or
grippe, physicians and druggists are
now recommending Calotabs, the new
nausealess calomel, that is purified
from all dangerous and sickening eff
fects. Those who have tried it say
that it acts like magic, by far more
effective and certain than the old
style calomel, heretofore recommend
ed by all physicians.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water,-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with eating,
work or pleasures. Next morning
your cold has vanished and your
whole system feels refreshed and
purified. Calotabs is sold only in orr

SAD DEATH OF MOULTRIE
FREY I'm MONTEZUMA

Mr.. William Moultrie Frey, 27
years old, died at his home in Monte
yuma early Monday morning, after
one weeks illness of influenza follow
ed by pneumonia. The body was
brought to Marietta on Tuesday and
the funeral was held from New Hope
Church on Wednesday morning. Pre-
siding Elder ]. C. Erwin conducted
the services, assisted by DIR. w. T.
Handy, of the Marietta Methodist
church, and Mr.. Shell Pastor, of the
Church at New Hope. The music
was furnished by Misses Myrtle
Dodd, Clara Gilbert, Ruth Erwin,
with Miss Ruth Stephens at the organ.
The interment was in the New Hope
cemetery, the pall-bearers being,
Messrs Clarence Moore, Oscar Sauls,
Andrew Benson, and Roy, Harold, Es-
mer, Clifton, and Cecil Billiard,
Mr.. Frey is survived by his wife,
who was Miss Nell Bentley, of New
Hope; baby daughter and son; his
mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Frey; three
sisters, Mrs. Arthur Moore, of Way
cross, Mrs. Mayo CAN'T, of Nelson,
and Mrs. Paul Lyle, of Birmingham,
Ala, and two brothers, Mayes and
Marvin Frey, of Marietta, besides a
number of other relatives who mourn
the cutting off in his prime of this
promising young man.
Moultrie Frey joined the Methodist
Church in Marietta when but small
boy, and has ever been a devoted
Church member, and consistent
Christian. He had sunny, affec-
tionate nature, and numbered his
friends by his acquaintance.
About a year ago he moved his
little family to Montezuma, where he
had a good position with the STAN
dard Oil Company. There he took
a prominent part in Sunday School
work, as he always had here; and was
highly thought of in the town.
The sympathy of all goes out to the
bereaved family especially to the
young wife and little children.

lars which we would have to pay an
nually as interest on the bonds. Our
taxable property in Cobb County for
the year 1918, was about ten million
dollars, so you see even if our prop
erty tax values never increase at all
we would have to levy tax of only
five dollars on the thousand of tax
able property in order to pay the in
terest on our bonds. Now, take the
average farmer who owns a five
thousand dollar farm, don't you think
he would be willing to pay this small
amount of twenty-five dollars in order
to get a highway he could use any day
in the year without getting mud on
his wagon and besides be enabled to
pull two tons of freight to town
where he is now able to pull only one?
But no one would have the nerve to
come out and say that with all these
good hard roads that our taxable
values would always remain the same
as last year. My guess is that in
ten years our taxable values in Cobb
would be twenty million dollars, and
then we would only have to levy a
tax of about two and one-half dollars
on the thousand to meet the interest
on these bonds. Don't you think this
argument is reasonable? If so, you
ought to agree that the bond issue
is the right thing.
| want to guess at another thing,
and that is that the property owners
in our cities and towns will meet the
farmers half way on bond issue to
secure good roads in our county; and
it does seem to me that if they show
this spirit in the matter, our farmers
ought to take hold of it without delay.
If we can get bond issue there
is a good chance to get State and
Federal aid, at least in the building
of some of our roads in this county.
Now, these are just merely few
points roughly suggested, and | know
that they are subject to criticism,
but if we are ever going to have
any permanent roads, we must have
some plans to begin with, and in order
to get a plan we must discuss the
ideas of all.
My opinion is that the great in
crease in taxable values of the coun-
tvs property which would undoubt-
eddy be brought about by these road
improvements would more than pay
the interest on the bonds. If we had
these roads now, you would see peo-
pie rolling into this county by the
hundreds, wanting farms and homes,
and they wouldn't mind paying for
them either.
Now if anyone has better plan
than this, let us hear from them, and
if it looks better than mine, we will
accept it as substitute. I am not
jealous about the plan, but | am very
much interested in getting a road that
we can travel over in winter as we'll
as any other time.
Yours very truly,

be required to have any other work
done on these trunk roads than the
necessary grading before they were
built. This would provide us with a
sufficient convict force to keep our
second class roads leading Up to the
trunk roads in good condition. The
bonds should run for not less
than thirty years, so that the coming
generation could pay part on the
improvements they would enjoy.
l should roughly estimate the total
mileage of these trunk roads at nine
ty to one hundred miles, and this at
ten thousand dollars per mile, would
have to issue bonds. Well, let's say
we would issue one million dollars of
bonds and float them at five per cent
this would make fifty thousand dol.

GOVERNMENT REPORT ON
THE COTTON SITUATION
Continued from page one)

The crops of Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Missouri, North Carolina,
Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia were
smaller in 1917 than in 1916; but
Arizona, California, Georgia, Louisi-
ana, Mississippi, and South Carolina
showed increases.
Consumption and Exports
During the year ended July 81,
1918, the mills of the United States
consumed 6,566,489 running bales of
cotton. This consumption comprised
6,296,756 bales of domestic upland
cotton, 85, 939 bales of sea-island
cotton, and 1879 bales of foreign
cotton. In addition, 1,118,840 bales
of linters were consumed. The stocks
held in the country on July 81, 1918,
aggregated 3,450,188 bales of lint
cotton and 439, 917 bales of linters.
The exports during the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1918, 4,641 ,O23 equiv
alent 500-pound bales, were less than
for any preceding year since 1893,
and fell below those of 1917 (6,176,-
1862 bales) by nearly Is per cent. The
greatest amount of cotton exported
during any fiscal year in the history
of the industry is shown for 1912
11,070,251 bales. For the following
year the exports fell to 9,124, 591
bales, and during the fiscal year 1914,
which ended just prior to the outbreak
of the European war, 1921 1881 bales
were exported. Since that year the
exports have declined, although 1917
showed a slight increase as compared
with 1916. Less than half as much
cotton was exported in the fiscal year
1918 as in the fiscal year 1914.
The items which make up the 1918
totals are: Exports to the United
Kingdom, 2,387,101 bales; to France,
658,553; to Italy, 369,213; to Spain,
259,194; to Russia, 15,945; to Hol-
land, 10,099; to other European coun-
tries, 82,572; to Japan, 583, 546; to
Canada, 249,973; to Mexico, O,7O6;
and to all other countries, 14,122.
The exports to Belgium, Germany,
and Austria-Hungary dropped to very
small amounts during the fiscal year
1915 (the first month of which, July,
1914, preceded the outbreak of the
warl and since that year no exports
whatever to those countries have been
made. The only countries the ex-
ports to which during the fiscal year
1918 exceeded those during the pre-
ceding year were Japan, Canada, and
Mexico.
Cotton Manufacture
Massachusetts still retains its SUI
premecy in cotton manufacturing, the
consumption by its mills during the
year ended July 81, 1918, being
1,493,113 bales, including linters.
Next in order were North Carolina,
with 1,186,314 bales; South Carolina,
with S92, 532; and Georgia, with $780,
395. The mill consumption in these
four states alone represents nearly
trhee-ffths of the total for the coun-
try. Since 1912 the annual consump-
ton of cotton in the cotton-growing
states has amounted to more than half
the total for the United States, the
proportion for 1918 being 81 per
cent.
