AGCIES WIN FROM
CARTERSV|LLE BY
SCORE OF II TO 0

The Macland Aggies came out vic
torious in hard played football game
last Friday on their own grounds over
the fast but much lighter team from
the Gainesville high school, by the
score of 27 to 0. This is the second
meeting of these two teams this sea-
son, both times resulting in victories
for Macland, but the much closer
score this time, indicating a much
harder fought game than the first.
The Macland scoring came as fol
lows: points in the first half, IA
in the third quarter and in the 4th
quarter All the touchdowns came
as the result of delayed bucks, with
Captain CAN'T carrying the ball. This
was always preceded by a series of
line bucks by Alexander and CAN'T.
The work of Alexander and CAN'T,
along with the entire line featured
the playing of the aggies, while Gil
reath and Walton in the line, and
Colbert at full, did the best all round
playing for Gainesville.

MARIETTA WOMAN
HONOR GUEST AT
ARMISTICE FETE

An honor seldom enjoyed by those
still among the living was that be-
slowed upon an esteemed Marietta
woman, Mrs. Camilla Mitchell Groves.
granddaughter of the famous revo-

loving guest of honor at great arm

half century ago, that of Camilla.
la, the progressive capitol of Nit
chell county, in the extreme South
western portion of the state.
In 1858 Camilla was named after
Mrs. Groves, her christian name. She
was then a young lady. Now, So
years later, she returned, old and
gray, yet still beautiful in the eyes
of all who knew her and particularly
those who are citizens of the city
which bears her name.
All the former residents of the citv
were invited to be present, among
these being ex-governor Colquitt. Of
Texas, and Bishop W. N. Ainsworth.
The ceremonies began with great
parade, headed by the entire school
body of the city, followed by every
available automobile in the count,
draped in the national colors and 9th
'erwise decorated. The procession then
proceeded to the city hall where an
attractive program was carried out
with Mrs. Groves and her daughter
Mrs. Minis, also a popular Marietta
woman. The city was then present
ed with a beautiful oil painting Of
Mrs. Groves, taken when she was a
young lady, the gift of the Woman's
Club of that city. On account of
her age, she being sc. Mrs Minis
did the responding speech making for
her mother. At the close of the
ceremonies a lovely silver vase was
given to Mrs. Groves in behalf of the
ladies of the city.
Reports from Camilla are to the eff
feet that not since Armistice day in
1918, had Camilla been so bedecked
with flags and national colors, and
the real spirit of victory seemed to
fill the air.

The people along the line served,

as dusty on dusty days as it is pos
sible for anything to get, and on
rainy days an equal record would
always be established for mud. The

later showed himself decidedly the
soldier. His talk was no effort at
oratory but came straight from the
heart and was delivered in a deep,
rugged tone. Marietta was highly
compiimented for its hospitality to
the regiment while here. 1t was point
ed out that very state in the Union
was represented in the regiment, SO
that it could be truly said that no
place could b called the home of the
regiment, but that this want had been
supplied by the hospitality of the
people of Marietta, Captain Conyers
assured his hearers that the people
of this city and county would always
be remembered graciously by he and
his former comrades in arms.
The speech of acceptance for Ma
rietta, was made by DIR. Patton, of the
Presbyterian Church, who stated that
the banner had been given by Mari
eta, a young and untried thing, but
that it was returned a tried and sa-
cred veteran. This role of speech
maker in acceptance was very appro-
priately played by DR.. Patton in that
it was he who had made the speech
of deliverance almost on the same
spot 3 years before.
Following the exercises one young
Marietta proposed three cheers for
our soldier boys and thew were given
with will, considering the impromp-
tn occasion.
The visitors were given an excel
lent luncheon at the golf club after
which they returned to Atlanta in
time to take in the Tech-Georgetown
football game.

platform along with the chairman,
and Drs. White and Patton. On the
right hand facing the South stood
the color sergeant with the much pri-
zed colors unfurled to the breeze.
At the top Of the staff, just above
the flag, two red ribbons were tied,
placed there by the hands of General
Pershing, and representing the act

had take part. One ribbon really
represented two campaigns, one of
which was in the St. Mihiel sector.
The other was for 80 days stay on

having been under fire for the entire
length of the stay,which represents

Prayer was rendered by Rev. White
of the First Baptist. Church, and then
Captain ]. B. Conyers, made the
speech for the regiment, returning
the colors. This was to have been
done by Col. Deems, of Fort Leaven-

age OF around Is pounds to the man.
the Marietta boys made the Rome foot
ball squad fight hard for every gain
