WARM WEATHER MAKES
MORE TYPHOID fever
Commissioner of Health Ready to
Vaccinate and Check Dread
ed Disease.

Warm weather not only lowers
body resistance-it augments the null
tiplication of typhoid vaccilli in infec-
ted water and milk-it increases the
number of flies and other carriers, and
thus intensifes the prevalence of in
teric fevers. But the simplicity and
dependability of prophylaetic vaccin-
nation is robbing the heated months
of this danger to those who appre-
ciate the Importance of typhoid innoc-
ulation.
If you have not taken tht inocula-
ton within the past two years the
Cobb county Board of Health urges
that you do so, and offers as an in
ducement this given free by the COM
missioner of health, every Saturday
from 9 to II A. M. at the Court
House.

of Innocence, Mysterious Rider, and
Potterism. The Age of Innocence was
given the Pulitzer prize of 81 900 last
year, and is the most artistic piece of
work of the four.
Any one wanting any special book
at the Library, which is not in when
wanted, may reserve it. by paying two
cents, which is to cover the cost of
holding it for you, and notifying you
by mail when it comes in and how
long it will be held. This is a service
which larger Libraries give their pa
irons, and will prove helpful to ours.
A few new books will be purchased
before long, and the Librarian very
much wishes that people would ask
for books which they may want. To
get the books which are wanted is
much more satisfactory than just to
get books. One of the oldest and
most interesting books in the Library
is a copy of Aesop's fables. This
was printed in 1924. 1t is quantity

an Application One of the pretti-
est and most attractive juvenile books
of the present day is modern edition
of these same fables. The form but
not the substance, nor usefulness has
changed.
One of the pleasantest and in some
ways the most helpful activities of a
public library is its bulletin board.
One day last week little girl who
was fascinated by our bulletin board,
and its pictures, after looking at its

Pointing to a picture of an incident
in the life of George Washington, she
said "there is some history, and here
in these fairy tale pictures is some
art, and here is some current events"
And she had gotten the essentials
from all three.

Grand Trip Reported by Those
Returning. Two Fell by Way

= It took several days to procure any
news of the Des MONIES trip, for it
took hours on end of solid sleep to
put those Shriners in shape to talk.
No enc who has ever attended a
Shriners Convention is surprised at
this indeed the only surprise is
that the Marietta party returned with
only two missing! (Of course you have
heard their excuses, Guy Northcutt
had to go to New York from Des
Moines and Morgan McNeel, Jr., had
to go to Lansing 49,
But. however and therefore, now
that these Shriners are talking
it sounds something ike this: "Mar-
velous uniforms-never saw such a
dance use as Mirzala-Des Moines
the grandest host ever-Len Baldwin
is surely live wire, one of the livest
publicity agents attending the Shrine
Conclave-the finest thing in the par

were all fine, but you should have
seen the crowds go crazy when the
bands started playing Dixie! and-oh
well, we have to stop somewhere, and
It might as well be here! And the long
and short of it is, as you may have
gathered from above, the Shriners
are at home after gr-r-rand and

CECIL NELL SPEAKER
FOR REPRESENTATIVES,
Election is Unanimous When Ennis
Withdraws at Last Moment
From Race.

Cecil Neill, of ~Muscogee county,
was unanimously elected speaker of
the Georgia house Of representatives
at the opening session Wednesday
morning, when his opponent, Howard
Ennis, of Baldwin county, withdrew
from the race.
The withdrawal of Mr.. Ennis was
a complete surprise to the members
of the house. Absolutely no hint of
his intention had been given out in
advance, and it was known only to
MIR. Neil and Judge Eugene Cox,
campaign manager of M. NeiH. and
to three or four close friends of Mr..
Ennis.
When the members of the house
had finished taking the oaths of Of
fee, and the house was ready to pro-
coed with the election of speaker.
Mr. Ennis took the floor, and announ-
ced his withdrawal He said:
GAS all Of you know my sole OBJ
ject in entering this contest was to
insure an organization of the house
which would cooperate with Govern
or iHardwick's administration. Ny
strength at this moment is ninety
three votes, which is seven votes less
than majority. Instead of prolong-
ing the contest, / have decided to
yield to the superior strength Of
my opponent, Mr.. Neill and make his
election unanimous. In taking this
step, | feel that the interest of our
new governors administration will be
in safe and capable hands.

AUDITOR FINDS
IN D0BB'S FAVOR
Judge Charles w. Smith Invegti-
gates Evidence and Passes on
Loan Case.
TRANSACTION WAS LEGAL
Money Saved Board Of Lights & Wa
ter and has Greatly Benefited
Marietta.

Judge Chas, w. Smith, of Atlanta
the auditor appointed by the presiding
Judge of Cobb county Superior court
in the case. of E. p Dobbs VS.. Board
of Lights & Water Works of Marietta,
has just completed his finding to be
submitted to the court for confirma-
ton or rejection.
The auditor was appointed by Judge
w. E. II. Searcy, Jr, who was presi-
ding judge in the absence of Judge
D w Blair, having been disqualified
in the case
Every finding of the auditor was
clearly in favor of Mr.. Dobbs, who
entered suit some time ago to re-
cover $4,000 loaned the Board Of
Lights & Water Works in 1915 to-
make purchase of the lighting plant
of the Kennesaw Paper company when
that company was operating in COM
petition with the city plant with the
result that neither could make any
profits and a $4,000 plant newly
credited by the city was on the verge
Of being forced to close on account
! of operating at a loss.
The loan, as it appears from the
finding. was made the Board of Lights
& Water Works to make the initial
payment on the plant which was sold
to the board for $4,000. 1t appears
further that the city Immediately be-
gan to make profits after the purchase
Of the Kcnnesaw plant and to be
able to reduce the rates to consumers
Since that time, which is little over
Ave years the Board Of Lights q Wa
ter Works has made approximately
100000 profits, which shows conclu-
sively that the deal was profitable.
In 1915 an injunction was fled
against payment Of the note given Mr..
Dobbs for the initial payment Of
$4,000 loaned the board by him and
other notes given the Kennesaw Pa
per Company for the remaining $1Z.-
900, claiming that the board could
not legally make the transactions.
Since that time the matter has been
in the courts
/ The oddit5fss findings give both Mr..
Dobbs and the trustee Of the Kenne-
saw Paper Company favorable de-
cision and holds that they have
right to recover the amounts stated
above.
In Mr.. Dobb's case the findings
were in brief as follows:
l.. The Board was a corporate boz
dy with the right to make purchases
and contracts, to sue and be sued.
2. That the money was furnished
for legitimate purpose and that the
board was greatly benefited by it.
3. That the Board received the
value of the full amount of the So COO
and used it for lawful pursose.
4. That Immediately prior to this
loan the Board was in such a bad
financial condition that it could not
, continue operating.
5. That the loan saved the Board
and citizens of Marietta a large SUM
OF money in acquiring the Kennesaw
plant and franchise.
.. In conclusion the auditor found
that the plaintiff was entitled to re-
cover the sum Of Three Thousand
Dollars with interest Of z per cent
per annum from December 1915 to-
gether with costs of court.

The Cobb County Sunday School
Convention held last Sunday at Log

of ten and half miles.
Miss Myra Batchelder of the State
Association directed the convention
and it must be said that she is great.
She IS ready and capable on any sub
iect in connection with Sunday school
activity. The other speakers, too
Prof. E. A. Pound and Judge 7. O..
Hathcock, proved as good as have
ever been heard in Cobb county and
we have had several of the big inter-
national workers from time to time.
The delegates have enough ideas, II
carried out, to make all our Sunday
schools the influence they should be in
their communities this year. One
very pretty special feature was lit
tie drill on the books of the Bible by
the class of 'junior" girls taught by
Mrs. R. o. Black in the First Metho-
dist Sunday school Of Marietta. This
was given as specimen of work IN
! the Graded lessons.
Schools and individuals made pied
ges for Cobb County's share, $3.50, OF
the State Associations expenses for
the next twelve months, and voted
their appreciation of the hospitality
and fine community spirit Of the Log
Cabin folks. Invitations were received
from Winnings, Locust Grove and Mid
way to hold the 1922 convention with
them, and it will be left with the ex-
eeutive committee to select the place.
