Colored People Mourn Death of Civil
War Veteran.

At the death of Gen. e. T. Sykes
at Columbus the colored people had
published the following which tells
it's own story. (Gen. Sykes was Con-
federate War Veteran, "a years of
age.)
ION behalf of the colored people
of Columbus, please let us say, that
the death Of no white man in the
South could have brought more sor-
row to the hearts of the colored peo-
pie of Columbus than that of General
e. T. Sykes.
GENERAL Sykes was the lifelong
friend of the black people. He un-
derstood their faults, their weakness
es, their shortcomings, and covered
their frailties with the mantle Of
Christian charity.
"Our heartfelt sympathy is extend
ed to Mrs. Sykes and Miss Augusta
in their great sorrow"

DIVIDENDS INCREASED.
Granite City Cooperative Creamery
Had a Good Year.

The Granite City Cooperative
creamery of Barre held its annual
meeting Saturday, the meeting being
called to order at L a. m. with sixty
stockholders present. A report was
read by Mr.. Miller Of the Francis q.
Derby Co.. public accountants, who
have charge Of the auditing Of the
creamery books.
This report covered the year ending
Sept. |, 1922, which is the second
wears business done by the creamery.
The report showed an increase IN the
volume of business over last year,
more products having been handled by
the creamery this year than last.
1t also showed that after paying
six per cent dividend on capital stock
and also after paying six per cent on
patrons profits for 1921, the approx
innate percentage to be credited back
to the patrons on their product de-
liyered at the plant the past year
amounts to 1928 per cent.
N Last year this profit was l.s7 per
cent.
The net profits before paying on
stock and interest on profits equalled
81 per cent on invested or paid up
capital; last years percentage was
l7b.
The creamery enjoys very fine
market for its products, and has been
able to return to its patrons prices
for their products which average well
with those of the largest and best
creameries in the state.
The output of ice cream this year
was even greater than last. This fact
Is very gratifying to the creamery be-
cause IL was done i'm face of bad local
business conditions, and a summer
that was considered unfavorable to ice
cream business.
The state law requires that ma
iority of the stockholders must be
present before business can be legally
transacted. As majority was not
present the meeting was adjourned to
Nov 4 at 10 a. m. in Worthen hall. It
Is hoped that every member viii make
q special effort TO be present at this
meeting, as there is business of i'm
portance to be transacted.
