HOPEFOR UNITY
ON CITY CHARTER
Joint Meeting of Bipartisan
And Citizens Committees
Called
EXPECT TO SETTLE ON a
CITY MANAGER PLAN

There was something Of a clearing
Of the atmosphere with regard 10 the
proposed new City Charter today.
In view Of the action "Wednesday
afternoon Of the Bipartisan Charter
Committee. which voted to make a
city manager form mandatory in
stead OF optional. Leon Walker, chair>
man of the General Citizens Com
mittee. has called a meeting for next
Monday niglt to be attended by.
members Of both organizations. lt is
then hoped to reach some definite un-
derstanding regarding the terms Of
the proposed charter bill and the
methods TO be pursued to enlist pub
Mc support for it and 10 get ii.
through the Legislature.
Individual invitations are being sent
by Mr. Walker TO each member Of the
Bipartisan Committee, urging themr
to attend the Monday night confer
ence. Mr.. Walker has taken this
course on request OF Colonel George .
w. Sparks, chairman OF the Bi-Parti-
san Committee, who has said he will
attend personally if possible to do so.
One OF the principal questions,
aside from the exact terms OF the
Charter Act, to be decided is whether
the Bi-PartisOn or the General Citi-s
zens' Committee shall take the lead
in pressing the measure in the General
Assembly at Dover. The Citizens =
Committee had asked the Bipartisan
| body to blaze the way for the bill,
pledging its own cooperation and
support. On Wednesday. however, the
Bipartisan Committee replied by ask
ing that the citizens organization ac-
cept the leading role because il was
more representative OF the people.
There is some little difference OF
oponion, with regard to the exact
terms OF the clause providing for a
| city manager, which the Bipartisan
/ Committee desires inserted in the
! bill. From what could be learned to-
/ day, however, the clause will pro-
vide that the flve-man commission TO-
be chosen shall employ a city man
ager at a salary not to exceed $4,000
/ a year.
Mr.. Walker is confident that II the
two committees get together next
Monday night, all present differences
can be irOned out smooth and the
charter movement given united sup
port.

'SPRINCTIME' TO Be
GIVEN NEXT THURS.
AND FRIDAY NIGHTS

Something decidedly new awaits
Marietta in "Springtime," the music
al play extraordinary, which is to be
presented at the Y. w. C. A. on next
Thursday and Friday nights, Nov. 3
and 4th.
With a cast made up of such tai
ent as Mrs. w. E. Benson, Mrs. Wade,
Miss Sarah Patton, Mr.. L. N. Tram
NELL, Mr.. ]. z. Foster, Miss Marie
Shipper, Miss Daisy White and a
number of others of unusual ability,
there is no question but that the pre-
sentation will be far superior to the
usual amateur production.
There will be dances,-a profusion
of them; there will be good singing
and the songs are clever and music
al, the lines of the Libretta are a.
mong the cleverest ever heard in any
production.
It is the concensus of opinion that
Springtime" will be some show
and it is expected that the Y. w. C. A.
will be filed to its capacity, on both
Thursday and Friday nights.

DEPT. FILLS A LONG
FELT NEED IN CITY

A long felt need in the city and
county is being supplied by the WA.
Florence Dry Goods Store in their
new and up-to-date infants depart
ment which will have its formal open
ing next Thursday, Nov. 1. For some
time the work of installing the furn-
iture has been in progress and the
selecting of stock going on.
The furniture consists of dust proof
mahogany cases put in by the Grand
Rapids, Mich, Show Case Company.
Taste and efficiency have been COM
bined in this so as to make this fea-
ture alone highly attractive.
The stock in this departent includes
everything in every respect it is said,
that the baby needs from the time
it first gazeS upon the world until it
passes the third mile stone of its ex-
istence.
Mr.. Florence states that no other
such line can be found in the county
and no better, wider variety, he says,
can be found in larger cities.

fulton POLICE WHO
SHOT AT PAUL REED
ARE INDICTED HERE

Of interest to the people of the city
especially and to the people of the
county and elsewhere generally are
the indictments returned by the Cobb
county grand jury last Monday aga
inst the Fulton county policemen,
Carroll Gates and John Vinson, on a
charge of shooting at another, grow
ing out of the recent running down
and arrest of Paul Reed, of this city,
by these officers while returning in
car from Atlanta accompanied by
Marietta girl. An additional char
ge was brought against Gates of US
ing profane language in the presen-
&c of women without cause.
This case will come up in the Mo-
vember term of Superior court.
The case is noteworthy owing to
the fact that it sets precedent in re-
gard to such charge being lodged
against the Fulton police. It is said
that there is no justification of an
officer shooting after ascar that is
supposed to be speeding.
The outcome can only be surmised.

Com. w. L. Florence Indicted On
Charge OF Malpractice In Office

1t is understood that the position
of Mr.. Florence in the defense was to
the effest that the road in quest
ion was given to the county by the
citizens of that community and that it
was accepted by the Commissioners
of Cobb County and that the board
authorized the work to be done and
the road graded, etc. This matter was
left off the minutes of the Commits
Isioners, thru an error, or oversight,
the defense claimed, and for this rea-
son the Indictment was returned.
1t is stated that the Commissioners
have since ratified their action as
commended by Mr. Florence and the
work of building the road officially
authorized. 1t is stated that a petit
ion signed by nearly one hundred cit
liens of that community requested that
the road be continued as started in the
first instance.
This ease will probably be tried
at the November term Of the Cobb
county Superior court and will attract
wide interest all over the county and
the acquital or conviction Of Mr.. Flor
ence by a Cobb County Jury will set
at rest the many rumors that have
gone over the county in regard to this
matter.
At the hearing before the grand
jury it is said that no concrete OBJ
lection appeared against the road.
Following the Indictment, Mr.
Florence made bond.

MISS WILMA WATSON
DIES TUESDAY after
SICKNESS OF q DAYS

An unusually sad death and one
that came as a great shock to her
many friends was that of Miss Wilma

ter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles r. Wat
son of 1926 Maple Avenue, this city,
which occurred Tuesday afternoon at

was apparently enjoying excellent
health and was going about her regu-
lar school duties. She attended SER
vices at the Second Baptist Church

School class. was said to have been
one of the largest ever assembled at
the church. and attested almost more
than anything else of the love and
esteem in which she was held. In
torment immediately followed in the
church cemetary. The floral offer
ings were heaped upon the grave until
it cold be truthfully said that Wilma
sleeps beneath wilderness of flow
ers'. Among other floral wreaths
were one from the High School as a
whole, one from her class and one
from the B. Y. P. U. of which she
was an active and leading member.
! The pail bearers were: two of her

Commissioner Accused of Build
ing Road Thru Personal Prop
erty For Personal Makes
Defense.

The Cobb County Grand Jury of
the July Term Superior court met in
final session last Monday and after
hearing that lasted almost all day,
returned Indictment VS.. W. L. Flor
ence, C. Road Commissioner from the
Powder Springs road district, of NAL
practice in office. The indictment
charges that Mr.. Florence used his
position as Commissioner to constr
uct road thru his property for pri-
vate gain and wrongfully spent seve-
raj hundred dollars of the county's
money in doing so.

about a quarter of mile long and
practically running all the way on the
property of Mr. Florence. The road
is said to connect with the main Doug
lasyille and Villa RIGA road.
In cases of this kind, the accused
is given an opportunity to be heard
by the grand jury before indictment
can be returned and Mr.. Florence ap-
peared before the grand jury Mon

Cars Trveling At Night Without Lights
Prove Serious Menace to Life and Limb;
Tradegy Is Averted Only Thru Rare Luck

It coul have been a countless num-
Der of cars and the driver one of
most any of the thousand and one
people who have occasion to drive
cars at night. Well further be chart
table enough to say that it might have
been that the driver was returning
home after dark, having been delayed
thru mishap to the car, and the lights
Just wouldn't burn and home must
be made before it was late. We are
thus charitable because so many driv-
ers have been in this circumstance,
in fact the writer has and therefore
knows of it's frequent occurrence.
The road was fairly good and the
car clipped along at far rate de-
spite tbs darkness. No officers were
likely to be around as it was pretty
well ont in the rural districts, so
with the possible exception Of some
unexpected deep rut in the road eve
rything was bound to be alright 1t
was pretty dark and the going was a
little Creepy so far as the effect on
the spine was concerned, but, then,
everything was alright, home would
be reached presently and the nehl
time out, the lights would be taken
care of.
An occasional car was passed. But
they had lights, the car wJnodt ilgA 9
could be easily seen by the occupants
of the cars with lights, so of course
there was no cause for worry as to
being run into.
1t was about church time, and very
disasterously for our driver all coun.
try people do not ride in powerful
cars, many of them still have the
old fashioned way of going about il
ibuggies. And so while the affair wa;
~qfe in way for the driver it wa;
not the same for the occupants Of
buggies.
4 Suddenly, almost out of the dari,
ness itself, a faint visage arose O.
something moving. 1t had made n,
noise and was going in the same di
rection as the car. It was too lat,
