Bloody Birmingham reports its
usual weekly murder this week; a
man takes a sharp axe and splits his
w ife’s head open. Nobody ever hears
of any one being punished for murder
in that crime smitten city.
Atlanta has a building and loan
association that has adopted a new
feature. In ordinary loan associa-
tions, one must own a lot in order to
borrow money to build a house. A
member of tins association can borrow
money to buy his lot as well as
his house. This feature if success¬
ful will revoluLionize building and
loan organizations.
The Atlanta and Florida R. If.
which is financially crippled has been
sold to the Americas Investment
Company, and w ill '<( extended *°

mcricus should make successful an
enterprise in which Atlanta failed.
'i he citizens of Americus have lots of
jtusli and energy, and they are maks

The Baptist Convention at its re-

as a Sabbath of rest .They also passed
a strong res >1 t ion favoringthe speed-

traffic, and opposing any and ai!
forms of of license to sell liquor as
•‘an offense against public morals,
and a sin against God.” This is strong
language, an l the startling question
arises; are those who grant licenses
guilty of offense against public mor¬
