dition of these new members brings
the total membership up to fifty. The
chapter was organized about six
months ago and since that time has
been making rapid progress.
The second issue of the DeMolay
Preceptor, the monthly publication

nine HUNDRED
WOMEN REGISTERED
IN COBB COUNTY
Largest Number Ever to Register
In This County. 5000 Men
Are Registered

When the election for state officers
is held this year over 900 Cobb coun-
ty women will cast their vote for
their choice. This is the largest num-
Der ever to register in Cobb county
according to Tax Receiver Handy.
About the usual number of men,
5000, have registered bring the to-
tai for the entire county to the large
figure of 5000.
However, unless many Of the wo-
men in the county make tax returns
thew will not be allowed to vote. If
they have no property they should
make return in the tax collectors
office for 81 to cover poll tax. This
report can be made by the men on
their return and will keep their wife
from having to make a return also.

COUNTY BOARD HEALTH
URGES CITIZENS TO
TYPHOID VACCINATION
Attention of Public is Called to
Typhoid Season Approaching
and It's Dangers

Now is the time to take the ty-
phoid vaccine before typhoid fever
is here. 1t is better to be safe than
sorry. Typhoid fever is a dangerous
disease, and 10 per cent of all who
have it die, but untold numbers are
so devitalized that they never recov-
er their health completely, or fall
victims to some subsequent illness,
and yet we know that innoculation
gives practically universal immuniza-
ton.
Water, milk and other foods are
often polluted with typhoid germs.
The fly plays an important part in
carrying the germs, and every means
of sanitation possible should be used
to prevent the fly, thereby prevent
ing certain amount of typhoid fe-
yer.
If everybody would take the ty-
phoid vaccine, typhoid fever would
be disease of the past. Although
the board Of health gave over five
thousand innoculations last summer,
and the death rate from typhoid fe-
yer has been greatly decreased, we
are not satisfied until typhoid fever
has been eradicated-DO YOUR
PART in protecting yourself and
others by taking the typhoid vaccine.
The commissioner Of health will
try to visit every section Of the coun-
ty, and give all an opportunity to
take the vaccine, and it will be given
every Saturday in Marietta in the of
flee Of the board Of health.
DR.. L. L. Welch,
Commissioner Of Health.

Justice.
For many years one grand jury
after another has recommended that
Che court house be cleaned but until
a month or so ago no action was ia

GETS
OGLETHORPE TEAM
FOR 1924 SEASON
Managers Latimer and Moore
Sign Contract Wednesday.
First Game June 4
Raymond Rice

The die is cast-that is to say the
dotted line has been signed. Mari
eta is to have the services of the en-
tire Oglethorpe baseball team this
summer. Final arrangements were
made Wednesday morning when man
ayers Latimer and Moore signed the
contract with the Oglethorpe athletic
authorities.
This will give Marietta one of the
best amateur teams to be found in
the state. Taking everything into
consideration the "Petrels" have the
best college team in the south. If
they win from Tech this week end
they will have defeated every south
ern college team of any rank. Geor-
gla split a series with them, Auburn,
Mercer, and Alabama, have all lost
two games to the representatives of
the Presbyterian school. Besides
these many other smaller schools
have fallen before their onslaughts.
The pitching staff is one of the best
IN college circles. Lefty" Willis,
who pitched for Gainesville last sea-
son, HUMPHREYS, Jake Morris, of To-
cal fame, make up trio that will be
hard to hit. Pug Bryant, who broke
up many ball games last year while
playing in a Gainesville uniform,
will be behind the plate.
Adrian Maurier of football fame,
will hold down third base. This boy
is one of the fastest base runners in
the country. The entire team is a
hard hitting aggregation of ball play
ers, and should prove thorn in the
side of the pitchers of the other
teams.
Buford, Canton, New Holland and
Tate have already made their plans
to have cracker-jack ball clubs this
year. This season should prove most
interesting to the fans of this sec
ton.
The first game will probably be the
first Wednesday in June, as this will
be the first day the local merchants
will close their store in the afternoon.
Thereafter it is the hope of the man
agement to play games here in Ma
rietta every Wednesday and Satur-
day just as they did last year.
The stands have been enlarged so
that they will seat 800 fans easily.
They have all been covered over and
wire put up in front to keep out
stray balls. The roof Of the old stand
has been lowered so as to keep out
as much Of the late afternoon sun as
possible.
With the Oglethorpe team and the
improved ball park the followers Of
the great National pastime in Mari
eta should have a great season.

tude of Confidence In
Florida Jail

grand jury this morning handed in
two indictments against. Frank Nc
Dowell, confessed youthful slayer Of
his two sisters and his parents. One
charges him with the murder of his
mother and one of his father
The trial has been set for June 8.
Circuit Judge NJ. A. McMullen sta
ted this morning Mcdowell would be
arraigned this afternoon and date
set for his trial The trial cannot
be set for at least two weeks, as the

Of the court for that length of time.
Mcdowell confesses to having
burned his two sisters in their home
in Decatur, Ca, and a year later
killing his parents by shooting them
while they slept in their home in st.
Petersburg, to which city they had
removed.
Mcdowell is in the county Jail here
and appears confident that he viii
emerge from his predicament in some
manner. He declared that when the
jury is explained his condition, they
will know that he is not responsible
for his acts. He maintains that he
was led by some unknown power to
do the terrible murders.

Three Classes Plan
To Hold Annual Re-
unions This Summer

Meetings of the various classes
graduating from the Marietta High
School since 1921 are being held to
formulate plans for their annual re-
unions.
This custom was started three
years ago by the class of 1921 which
has already held two reunions and
is now planning to hold it's third one
Letters have. already been sent out
to the members of the class by the
officers and many have replied stat
ing their willingness to be present at
the third annual reunion. Arrange
ments are in charge of Milton Nc
Lain, president of the class.
The class of 1922 held it's first re-
union last year with great success.
They have already held a meeting of
the members of the class living here
in Marietta and decided to repeat the
affair. William DuPree, as president
OF the class, is in charge.
1t is understood that the class that
graduated last year will also hold a
reunion this year However, no def
mite steps have been taken.
These annual class reunions are
doing much to help the high school
and the classes holding them are to
be congratulated upon their school
spirit

FINE SPIRIT SHOWN
BY Statesmen DURING
NOON REPORT HOURS
Groups Are Nearing Goal With
Good Sales Reports Coming
From All Divisions

Marietta's statesmen are giving
fine display of the kind of Commune
ty loyalty that is needed to make Ma
rietta the city she has a right to be
and will be in the future. S58,7OO
of hotel stock sold after only a day
and half actual work by the citi-
zens sales organization is a good
showing and is very encouraging.
The citizens of Marietta who are not
working for the hotel will now feel
encouraged to boost the project by
turning in their subscriptions for
stock through the statesmen. Every
body is asked to remember that these
statesmen are volunteers and they are
working hard, and will continue to
work until Marietta is fully assured
of this hotel of which she so greatly
stands in need.
Grady Conway and Gordon B.
Gam have an awful fight on-they
just can't agree as to which of the
two has the best bunch of statesmen
in his division. Gam and his naan
of Division &c" have been having a
little the best of it on the reports
thus far made. Conway insists that
the breaks in the luck have favored
Gam and his men so far but that
in the end real craftsmanship and
hard work will count and that these
two virtues are found almost solely
among the men that compose Divis-
ion "a" Gam responded Yesterday
noon by challenging Conway to a
showdown on the comparative sales
ability Of the two groups to be DEM
onstrated by the reports that each
should make at noon Thursday. The
men of Cams Division were on their
feet Immediately to say that they
were with their leader and that Con-
way and his men have a fight on.
Just as eager were Conway's men to
snow him and Marietta in general
that they were with him in all his
his contentious. They, too, were on
their feet to say that Division "a"
would make a better report Thurs
day noon than Division &C"
Another disturber Of the peace and
quiet of all who were willing to 90
to sleep and let Marietta go on the
rocks is Mae Fowler and his group
of ten men. Mac and his bunch have
led the organization from the first.
No other group has thus far been able
to come in sight of them when it
comes to reporting big results in
stock sales. If we are to believe
what the members of group 8 have
to say they will have an unbroken
record of leadership from the begin
ming to the end of this campaign.
There are other groups however who
are making good showings and who
expect to successfully contest the
leadership of group 8.

MANY PAVING PRO-
JECTS UNDER WAY
IN COBB CO. NOW
Government Approves Roswell
Project. Dixie Highway
Project Surveyed

The small stretch of road from the
river bridge to the underpass has at
last been paved through the courtesy
OF Mr.. Finley, of the Finley Method
Company. This stretch of paving
only cost the county twenty-five
cents on the dollar. 1t was a much
needed improvement.
The surveyors from the State
Highway Department have compile
ted the survey of the Dixie Highway
project from the end of Kennesaw
Avenue to the Barlow county line.
However only a short stretch of 3
miles will be paved this year as it
Will be impossible to get Federal aid
on the remainder until next year. 1t
is the plan of the commissioners to
pave the stretch nearest Marietta
first so that there will be no break
IN the stretch from Atlanta to Ma
rietta.
The Government has given it's APP
prevail to the Roswell project from
the Fulton county line to the Milton
line, total distance of nearly three
miles. 1t is estimated that this pro-
Ject will cost approximately $4,000.
This means that the county must pay
one fourth of this amount. The city
of Roswell one fourth and the gov
eminent the remainder. Concrete
is being considered as the material
to be used.

Tomlinson had a comparatively
easy time with Comfort in their
match. The former won by the score
Of 6-3 6-3. However, Comfort never
gave up, but fought game fight in

Tomlinson and Northcutt meet to de-
eide the finalist for the lower bracket
