the people with whom he lived, as was
evidenced by the throngs that at
tended his funeral and the beautiful
flowers which completely covered his
grave. Max, who was only eighteen
years of age, was a native of Kenne-
saw. He was very religious boy and
leaves many friends to mourn his loss.
1t is one of the strange and mex
pressibiy sad phases of this life that
many young men whose physical heal
tn and strength called for at least the
allotted three score and ten years,
should be stricken down in the midst
of their bright hopes and all their use
fitness, and yet it is just as common
as it is pathetic and Max Whitfield's
case is a striking illustration of the
fact. And how truly in "the midst of
life are we in DEATH"
Funeral services were held at the
Kennesaw Methodist Church of which
Max has been a loyal member for a
number of years. The Rev. Gus Bond
,sofficiated. Interment was in the Ken
nesaw cemetery, with Mr.. Ernest Col
Inns in charge. He is survived by his
father. Mr.. L. P. Whitfield.

mas Tree Fund.

On next Friday. December End,
the Methodist Sunday School will
have picture show benefit for their
Christmas Tree Fund, at the Strand
Theatre. The pIHture presented will
be "The Old Nest" and Mr.. Glenn
Giles, superintendent of the Sunday
school, and the other members of the
committee in charge who have already
seen the prctUne, gsarnatee without re
servation, the merits of the produc-
ton. 1t is a heart gripping, soul
stirring picture Of home and mother
love, full Of pathos and full of mirth.
The people will have a chance to
see a picture that has been hailed by
critics AND reviewers as the most
lsfylng all-Bmeriean picture that has
yet been praduced. The theme, that
of mother love Nho sees her SIX
children leave hen, one by one, is
common to American families. All
the pOignanty of feeling that these
leaye-takings arouse in real life have
been caught on the screen.
rupert Hughes is the author of
this unusual t&le .0fmother love. He
has sought TO present a cross-sectioR
of universal theme. as applied to an
American family. All the joys and
sorrows connected with raising a fam
lily have been ,dramatized. Each of the
grow to manhood or waman-
hood with his osyn Individual inter
ests, then leaves the CID nest to fol-
low the call Of his desires. Only
their mother is Ix1t 10 .ner lonliness
and her memories. But, as in every
American family, the Xapng remem-
Der the old nest and return to it.
The picture was produced by Gold
wynn and was directed by Reginald
Barker. Mary Alden plays the old
and her performance has been
said to be masterpiece Of screen
acting.

DANIEL CUPID HAD
REAL THANKSGIVING
FOR TWO COBBIANS

Dan Cupid is no respector of time.
instead he is very eccentric in most
OF his actions and is liable to per
form on the impulse at almost anv
tlme and place. His little darts of
love may hurtle forth on their mis-
sion of happiness-and sometimes Of
woe-in the brightest MONDAY and
again they may begin the fulfilling
of their mission in the darkest hours
of the night. Sometimes it is winter
and again the balm of spring, or the
sultriness of summer. It may posi-
bly, be dark cloudy day and again
the time may be a gala day when
presumably everyone is thinking of
almost anything but the wiles of the
little love god.
In the past, so far as Cobb count
ians are concerned, he has generally
taken holiday on Thanksgiving. But
not so this year. 1t may have been
that he has been tantalized for this
seeming aversion to activity. on the
one day Of all the year when thanks
go up from every home and hearth.
However that may be, he strutted
forth on Thanksgiving day this wear
and when the thud Of the little sill
vry arrows stopped their culver, it
had united in the holy bonds Of mat
rimony Miss Matte Blalock and Mr..
q. W.. Tinsley, two very popular peo-
pie who live few miles southwest
of Marietta.

handlwork was Ordinary Gam. The

 DAIRY SHOW
Enterprising British Wom- an, Who Started Making : Useful Articles From Rabbit Skins, Vied With Milk Maids.

London, Nov. 30 - Hundreds of Londoners streamed recently into Az ricultura1 Hall, Islington, to see the Dairy Show and experienced many of the delights of the citizen suddenly transported into the country.
 The timehonored joke of the coun- try cousin who came loop to Lunnun to see t sights and mistook Buck ingham Palace for Scotland Yard was reversed when town-bred people in- spected the machinery used in mod ern dairy produce and found it as intricate as jigsaw puzzle.
 Amateur butter-making contests interested the greatest number ot spectators. They never seemed to caps, fresh from dairy schools. who were given pails of cream and churns and told to make butter in certain forms in two hours. The butter was sold, with little jars of junket and cream, as fast as the judges could pass it.
 Girls showed the way to make scenes from separated milk and flour, and in the Gi1bey Hall man trussed fowls for demonstration at regular intervals. Cascades of milk flowed at the rate of 500 gallons an hour through the pasteurizing ma chimes and from motor-nilked dummy cows Rabbit furs for women were eX- hibited by 8 woman who last year started to dress rabbit skins for a firm and then began to make the furs Into 0aHerenl articles for sale, until now she is doing a steadily increasing 2 business in coats, bags, slippers. hats, rugs, stoles, Dowder-puffs and hatpin tops. all made from the skins
 There are, in fact.'' she said, flew general util.ty articles that I cannot make from a rabbits skin.''
 The bird section was one Of the successes of the show. There were all kinds of curious domestic birds from the Polish hen, with white crest that resembled a Pompadour head dress, to West Indies black duck that looked green when it moved i; but there was not an ugly duckling among them.
