Compress Contemplated for
Marietta -
' - 7 r
It now ’seems that one of the
the many enterprises in store
for Marietta and one which will
he completed before another cot-
ton season is a cotton compress
J C Morris and Marvin Liddell
of Wichita Falls Texas are the
promoters of this new enterprise
and were here last Friday con
ferring with our business 'men
about the proposition These
gentemen are also associated
with W D Trueblood manager
of the Wichita Falls eompress
in the promotion and erection of
the Marietta press - ’ ’
Messrs Morris' & Liddell’s
proposition to the citizens is a
fair onp and one which should
meet with the approval and hear-
ty co-ojjeration of the citizens
andbusiness men of the town
Their proposition is to build the
press themselves if the town
will donate the ground for the
press affd the railroad switch to
it Or else they will agree to let
the citizens take -forty-five per
cent of the stock and Messrs
j Morris Liddell & Trueblood
I take fifty-five per cent of it but
they say they- prefer to build it
and own all of the stock
Marietta heeds just such an
enterprise and these gentlemen
after looking over the situation
and taking Into consideration the
present cotton' receipts of the
!4 town were favorably impressed
and very enthusiastic ' as - to the
out come of such an investment
The writer of this article is
personally acquainted with Mr
roe blood having known him
for the past twenty years and
know him to be reliable and an
experienced compresa man also
a fine business man and we are
also persona lly acquainted with
Mr Liddell and know him to be
reliable and trustworthy 1 '
' These 'gentlemen are to be
back here in a few days to com-
plete arrangements for the er-
ection of the press so as to have
it in operation by September
and we believe our citizens should
get busyGand assist them in
every way possible and slum
them that 'we are anxious for
such an enterprise to be located
in our town - x

Thin! I$g people all' over" the
United States have come to re-
alize thCfJmixjrtance of making
some prevision not only for the
play of children but' also for the
recreation of the entire commu-
nity They realize that industri-
al work will be better done if the
workers are more alive and bet-
ter fitted or’ their tasks jThe
scientifictudy of juvenile de-
linquency has shown that recre-
ation centers are one of the most
powerful agents for reducing ju-
venile crime by giving outlet for
juvenile w energy They realize!
that there is no more effective j
means of fighting tuberculosis I
than by making it possible for!
people to spend' their leisure
hours in happy out door exercise
and fresh air ' j
Although’ in the beginning
small parks nr play grounds'
were generally organized by pri-
vate persons or more often by
clubs and this still remains true j
of a large per cent yet the im-
portance! of the movement is
such thatjt is now a settled prin
ciple that the organization man-
agement and maintenance of!
play grounds and recreation!
parks or plazas shall be 'under j
some regularly organized rnunic- i
jxil authority ‘ While Marietta
may not' be able -just now to pro-j
vide a site and expend any great 1
amount of money in beautifying!
the grounds- and buying equip-
ment to ' our satisfaction— yet
we could make the start ' '
The first thing to 'do is to se-
