for education and everything else
that meant the advancement and

months had been fostered and en-
gineered by the rotarians

organization of the Alley :, Cats,
which is an organization within the
rotary. George H. Sessions was cleo

Burglars broke into the Kennesaw

would probably have succeeded irz

dollars but for the prompt action on
the part of DIR j Nv Ellis, an Occu-

the bank by the front door, where
upon the burglars, hearing the three
men, made their getaway thru the
rear of the building. 1t was found
that the intruders had entered th1
bank by smashing a back window.
Upon investigation it was found
that the yeggmen succeeded only frz
entering an outer vault, and did net
gain entrance to the safe whore thg

a number of the safe deposit boxes
were opened and several liberty bonds
taken. These, though, it is learned.

owners will sustain no loss.
Steal Tools From Garage
A garage operated by s. M. Dun
can in Kennesaw was burgIarized late
Friday night night and several toozs
taken. The fact that the same tools
were found later in the bank leadSt
to the theory that both jobs were,
pulled by the same gang.
Up to the present time no arrests
have been made in connection vita
the robberys, but county officers are
of the belief that the job was 6ozes
by "Home Talent" and are WORKING
on a number of clues which may IL
due time yield them the guilty par
ties, and more developments are ex-
pected soon.

POLICE COURT HELD
HERE MONDAY NIGHT
By Raymond Starr

The weekly session of police court
was held here on Monday night with
Judge BrQmby presiding. The ma
iority of Eases heard were for drunk
enness and disorderly conduct.
One dusky denizen of Darktown,
whose total earnings for a period OF
one year amounted to the sum OF
one dollar and four bits was arranged
for idling and lettering. He denied
the charge. Upon inquiry he assur-
ed the Judge that he was a profession
Al at the gentle art Of welding the
mex and shovel, and solely upon his
Gwn recommendation he was gwen
employment on the city streets.
Another Senegambiam, somewhat
darker in hue. was also given JOB,
when he found it inconvenient to con-
tribute the $3.50 to the Common
wealth. which quota was allotted MIN
for disorderly conduct. y.
II was brought out in the trial OF
one Sun Bond, also black as the
deuce of clubs, that great deal OF
disorder was stirred up in baptls'
town on Sunday afternoon, when
the aforementioned black ran amucK'
and threatened to clean out the com
munitv. 1t seems that the trouble
All originated in a dispute over a
$3.50 watch :
Considerable time was consumed III
an effort to ascertain whether one
of the witnesses in a disorderly case
was eligible to testify against the de-
PENDANT. 1t was alleged that witness
and defendant were related. "Wnat
kin are you to the accused" question:

who was with the Library last sum
mer, gave $500 to be used for juve-
niles.
4 The funds are exhausted now, the
Board of Directors have delayed the
Library appeal as long as possible on
account Of the financial stringency,
making arrangements to temporarily
finance the Library thru the~summer.
Now it has been gdeeidedto make the
drive Septeftb&r 21st. The rotary
club has Been asked to head the move
ment as it did 50 successfully last
year, and the Woman's Club will as
sist with a committee of its ablest
workers. Now it will be up to the
people Of Marietta to fall in line
with this civic and educational move
ment, and make it a great success.
This first year Of library work shows
the need there is for>such an insti
tuition in Marietta
From October 1920 to July /, 1921,
825 people registered to use the Lii
brary. Of this number All were
children, 354 adults. Books and
magazines circulated from Oct. 20,
1920 to July l, 1921, 1879. Books
have been loaned to two of the coun-
ty schools. Story hours have been
held for the children, and assistance
given both grammar and high school
grades in their work. Plans have
been made to carry this work on dur
ing the coming year, and to make it
of even more assistance and value to
the schools. All that is needed to
make it a success is that the people
stand by the Library, and give it
their cordial and substantial support.

LINEMAN is INJURED
ON TUESDAY MORNING
Loses Foothold While At Work
On A Telemhone Line
The Road To Kennesaw

Bernard J Green, lineman in the
employ Of the Southern Bell Tele-
phone company, was somewhat SER
iously injured Tuesday morning
about 11,o'clock while engaged in
repairing telephone line two miles
out of the city on the road to Ken
nesaw.
1t appears that his foothold gave
way while at work near the top of
pole, when his climbers lost their
grip, where the pole was not sound.
Green did not fall to the ground,
however, as he was caught by his
safety belt.
The injured man was carried to
the Marietta Sanitarium in pri-
vate car, where it was found that he
sustained internal injuries.
1t was stated that his injuries, tho
not extremely serious, were very
painful and that he would be confin-
ed for period of several days.

Poultry Club, in the county this year
and there are 1872 boys and girls who
are members Of these clubs. With
this number in the clubs, all of whom
have done good work and will have
good exhibits, the composition win
necessarily be close.

mess men of the county bids fair to
be one of the largest in the history
of the fair. A new feature will be
three $25 scholarships to the Short

State College of Agriculture next
summer. The First National Bank
of Marietta is offering one scholar

FIRST NATIONAL BANK9
INACCURACIES NOVEL IDEA

A very novel and unique idea is
being practiced by the First National
Bank and one that is calculated to
prove of exceptional benefit to their
farmer patrons and all others who
take advantage. Two blackboards
have been hung in the lobby of the
bank where farmers who have any
thing to sell, can put the public on
notice by an advertisement written
on the boards. Where person wants
to buy anything the boards can be
used in the same manner.
No charge whatever is to be made
for this service and it is predicted that
the plan will be very successful.
