CHILDREN SUPREME
At BIC CLUB FAIR,
ALL EXHIBITS FINE
Hundreds See Many of the Finest
Hogs and Much of the Finest
Grain Ever Assembled in The
County-Few Entries.

Tuesday, the occasion of the Cobb
County Club Fair held in Park Square
will live long in the hearts of Cobb's
Youngsters, boys and girls alike. and
at the same time it will not soon be
forgotten by THE older folk. The
young Cobbians reigned supreme for
it was their hogs, and their grain. and
their canned stuffs, the products of
their hands and brains for the mast
months of careful study and work.
that was on display in the shape of an
educational feature for all those who
were here to see,-and these latter
numbered several hundred.
No finer pigs, sows and boars,
corn, wheat, pumpkins, seeds and pre-
serves have ever been seen in the
county. These boys and girls, many
of whom were the tiniest tots imagin
able had cared for these things on ex-
hibit, and all the older folk could do
was stare and wonder how it could
be done.
Then the judging began and proud
er still would grow the look on the
face of some small lad or tot of a
girl as ribbon would be pinned on
them designating their work as the
LIST, End or 3rd best in the county.
Agan one Of these little ones would
have another ribbon pinned alongside
of one already on denoting the fact
that their work excelled in two or
more lines, and then happiness and
pride would swell their breasts and
brighten their eyes and add the col
Or of joy to their faces in a way that
was worth more to see, perhaps, than
all the exhibits.
The grand champion hog of the
show was a six months old Poland
China sow, owned by Master J. Lloyd
Blackwell, who lives on the Bell Ferry
Road 4 miles from Marietta. This
pig will compare favorably with those
seen at any pig show in the state

The trial Of J. S, Peek on q charge
Of numbering his wife which took
up two entire days o. the adjourned

of guilty with recommendation for
mercy and life time sentence was
imposed by the court.
The trial began early Thursday
morning and did not come to close
until about o'clock Friday evening.
Perhaps no case coming UP for trial
the past year has created such wide
srread interest, owing largely to the
revolving nature Of the crime and the
prominence of the defendant. The
defense admitted the crime and made
their case on the grounds Of insanity
at the time the crime was committed
The state undertook to bring out fact
70 the contrary. Attorneys for the de-
Tense Morris & Hawkins, Fred Nor

New York, Sept. 7.-Francis p.
Garvin, former allied property Gus
todian, new professor of the chemical
foundation. speaking today at the in
ternational conference of American,
British and German chemists, charged
that German agents in America are
"once more plotting against our Sc

health of our children" He said the
German dye monopoly controlled cer-
tain members in congress. "The times
are too dense with danger for passive
tactics" he continued. "On one side
we have the same old crowd. of Ger
man agents n1asquerAding as Ameri-
can citizens. On the other we per-
ceive American citizens supporting
the German intrigues. In congress we
hear and stand aghast at the ignorant
and malicious outbursts Of certain
legislators, unmindful Of their coun-
tTys welfare.
'These voices are the voices of the
elected representatives and senators
in the American congress but the
hands that manipulate them are the
hands Of the German dye trust and

formed by man, the Unforeseen Gene
