MRS. GOLDIE SHAW BRUBAKEf

The funeral services of Mrs. Chas.
Brubaker were held on Tuesday after
noon at the Central Christian church
OF which she was for the past five
years faithful and loyal member. The
last place she had visited was her
Sunday School on Sunday a week ago.
And this was the very day that She
was stricken with her fatal illness.
The church was filled with sorrowine
friends and the floral offerings were
many and beautiful, the last token OF
affection that their numerous friends
could bestow on the bereaved family.
The services were in charge of Rev.
Bruce Nay who gave repeated as
surances 'ot the safe and happy state
that the departed one had attained
and was confident that the only mes
sage. that she had been so solicitous
OF giving her pastor must have been
the great concern over those she was
leaving.
The beautiful songs, Somewhere
the Sun is Shining" LEAD kindly
Light" and "In the Sweet Bye and
Bye were rendered by a quartette
composed of DR.. and Mrs. L. A. Tur-
ner, Mrs. w. A. Adams and Mrs. 7.
Davis with Miss Irene Archer at the
Piano playing softly during the rites.
The pail bearers were: Messrs w. A.
Adams, Clayton Jay, R. l. Maffett,
Guy Johnston, Walter Wilkerson.
lnterment was made at Evergreen
Cemetery.
Mrs. Brubaker was born at Shelby
vile, Ind, Nov. 4, /. 1884 and came to
Fitzgerald in early Colony days with
her parents as Goldie Shaw. She was
married very young, Dec. 1899 to Mr..

Heck of this city and Mrs. John
Howell of Macon and one brother in
Indiana are the near relatives surviv-
ing her. She had a large circle Of
friends as have also her husband and

spect and sympathy of all who know
them.

OF the Georgia Railway and Power
Company which obtains detailed re-

today points out that while Atlanta
and the other cities of Georgia some
time ago passed inro the upward
phase OF the prosperity curve, it was
not until the past month, that many
OF the Money Crops" were ready for
marketing. Georgia peaches, melons,
and other perishables, which annually
bring millions of dollars into the
state, were started to the North and
East. Winter grains were sold and
money flowed into rural sections that
have struggled through many lean
months. This sale of money crops
together with other factors has caus-
cd an increase in volume in all lines
OF trade. Industry reflects the slim
ulons and unemployment, shows a
further decrease.
- IS stated by the power company

time IN months the demand for auto
mobiles, especially the cheaper makes,
has exceeded the supply, and dealers
are again forced to take orders for

Paying Useless Taxes
American made silk goods are being

But some of the silk manufacturers

cent upon silks. A yard of silk that
costs 81 would pay a duty of $110.-
Why should American women be ask

Uncle Sam will get almost no rev.

millions of dollars On account of it.
The cheapest kind of lace is made
