If that la not done, the diocese may decide upon a missionary bishop and hare him transferred to tho diocese of Georgia.

Corn liquor will give place to hot chocolate and the festive pretsel will be replaced by doughnuts, and the old- timers who have frequented Peter Lyneh'a place for more years than many grown-up Atlantans can recount must find another tendexvous. For Pe ter’s place has been leased for a dell catesscn store and after New Year’s It will be but a memory. The block In Whitehall will be “dry" from end to end. Dlonchl Tamoso will be the new proprietor. The two names show one of the changes of the years—from Lynch to Tamoeo. No true Lynch would sell anything aofter than the juice of the com. but the Lynches and the Rulllvans and the rest are giving place In the small (fade line to the Tamnaos and C'unatantanls and all the others from sunny Italy and wave- kissed Greece.

About the middle of January a new kind of delicatessen establishment will be opened In the building so long occupied by the unique little liquor store. Peter Lynch’s "store," as the old resi dents call It. has successfully defied time, but has twice succumbed to the law. and this third time It will be for good. Had It not been for the desire of law makers to change tilings, Peter Lynch's place would present Just the same ap pearance now as when Peter Lynch first threw open the doors in 1867 to a small Atlanta population that bought a varied assortment of good*—family Bibles.

CUPID INTERRUPTS TOUR OF PRETTY SECRETARY; MISS KATE FULLER WEDS Pintles and frown* are chasing each other over the usually placid counte nance of Dr. Len O.. Broughton and, of course, thereby, hangs a tale—one of thoee adventures of love that develop every now end then a* evidence of the strange ways In which Cupid some times doe* hi* -work. Mis* Kate Fuller, an attractive young womltn from College Park, wa* .en gaged by Dr. Broughton some time ago bm secretary and treasurer of the Tab ernacle Infirmary.

Wednea. day Dr. Broughton received a postal from Mtsa Fuller announcing that she was on her way home. Thursday morning bright and early she was back In Atlanta. Tbese may not be the very word*, but they are substantially the ones that were used In the conversation between Mlae Ful ler anti the pastor of the Baptist Tab ernacle: How did you manage to get back oo early?" "Oh. I—don't—know.” "Old you go to New York 7" "Y-y-yes." "I suppose you went to Philadel phia 7" "N-n-no.” "How were the Infirmaries In Baltl more 7” "I didn't go. there, either." "Well, where did you go7" "Why, l-l-I-went to New-New York and-and-and got married!” Explanations, of course, were In or dor, and they came between blushes and smiles and little' hesitating gasps. 'George Whitman and Mtss Fuller, when child playmates In Atlanta, were sweethearts. As It so often the case, they soon parted to go their separate ways. Mr. Whitman graduated at the University of Georgia, then went to Yale. He graduated there In lew last June, and settled in New York.

In the meantime, accepted the posltlon'wlth the Infirmary, Miss Fuller left Atlanta to take this trip, and It was by accident that she met Mr. Whitman In New York. The flames of the old love of childhood had flickered perhaps, but had never died out. It required only a day or two of companionship for thla lov* to blase out sue* and -Illi warmth. Last Saturday night they were mar ried. -I have come bark,” explained Mias Fuller (beg pardon. Mrs. Whitman) "to straighten out all the books of the Infirmary and then George Is coming back after me."
