The oeventh and most successful an nual convention of the Georgia Retail Grocers’ Association held Its last two sessions Wednesday afternoon and night In' the convention hall of the New Kimball. The feature of the arternoon meeting was an address by J. A. VanHoose, of Birmingham, Ala., president of the Southern Wholesale Grocers' Assocla tlon. He spoke on "The Need of Or 1 sanitation, and the Beneficial Results to Be Secured by the United Co operation of Jobber and Retailer." Sir. VanHoose stated that he came In the Interest of showing the close connection which lies between the wholesaler and retailer, and urged upon the retailers the absolute necessity of thorough organisation. He stated that so anxious waa the wholesalers that the retailers be thoroughly organised that he believed the wholesale association would pay half the expenses of State Organiser E. R. Moore. E. R. Moore, state organiser for Georgia, was the next speaker, his sub ject being “What It Takes to Make a Successful Association, and How to Secure Results." He emphasised the need of co-operation on the part of the retailers, not so much for a large profit as for a fair deal to all members of the trade. He claimed that more than any thing else the prosperity of a city Is dependent upon the retail trade. "We have got to work together. Co operation Is In the air, and 'you must get together. Instead of conducting a cut-throat business we should help each other. There Is no use to organ ise a trust to raise prices. We want organisation for self-protection," said Mr. Moore. Secret Key Credit Card. A report from the committee on ways and means recommended a secret key credit card, to be used by members of year for each firm using It. The com mittee also recommended that Mr. Moore's salary and expenses be paid out of a per capita tax on the members. Short talks were made by J. E. Mad dox, C. H. Kelley, D. H. Browder, and George Boynton, all wholesale dealers. By-Laws Changed. The constitution and by-laws of the association were so changed as to al low wholesale grocers to become hon orary members, with annual dues of 225,'and also so as to permit the ad mission to membership of all classes of retail merchants. The association de cided that It needed two vice-presi dents In the future Instead of one, and consequently the constitution and by laws were changed again. olutlons were adopted Indoraln the pure food bill, the garnishment bll and the trading stamp bill now {lending In the state legislature. The following officers were elected ir the ensuing year: President—J. W. Kilpatrick, Atlanta. First Vice-President—A. E. Douglas. Madison. . . . . _ „ Second Vice-President—-J. W. S. Hardy, Waycross.

COMMITTEE KILLS The Needs of Important Legislation to Purge the State of Impure Fo Food,” W. Farllnger, the well known Atlanta * F Many members 6f the legislature dropped In at the night session, mak ing a large crowd present. INDER KEEPS MONEY BUT RETURNS PURSE If you loet a pocketbook containing money and papers and you recovered the papers without the money, would you be glad or sorry? J. D. Carter, of 247 East Pine street, compromised by being angry, to Judge from what he said Wednesday. Mr. Carter lost his pocketbook last Saturday afternoon. It contained 28 In currency and several papers of value to wner, but of slight Interest to the \ Mr. Carter bewailed his loss tor several days: ' On Tuesday afternoon Mn Carter found a package In his mall. It was the shape of a pocketbook, the else of a pocketbook. It felt like a pocketbook. opened the package, and sure enough It wise the pocketbook. Mr. Carter smiled and remarked that there was still some good In the world. In spite of Standard Oil and the beef trust—Thomas Lawson to the contrary, notwithstanding. Then he opened, the prodigal purse. The missing papers were tucked snugly In their accustomed pockets, but the place where the greenbacks had in wont to nsetle there was nothing but disappointment. The finder had put that eight dollars where It would do the most good. Then Mr. Carter remarked that the muck rakers were right—the world was growing worse. He addressed the following to the pub lic through The Georgian: If the party will send the 83 and hla lresa the gentleman will send him the pocketbook. Some say the world Is getting better, but for dishonesty and scheming It waa naver more damnable. The trouble makers are busy.” And that recalls the question—would Mr. Carter have been happier had he not received the pocketbook at all? Should he feel unlucky because he lost his money or lucky because he found his papers? How would you feel? The answer will Indicate whether you are a pessimist or sn optimist.

It provides for the building of school houses, the consolidation of schools, transportation of pupils to the schools In certain exigencies, nnd also pro vides a penalty for disturbing schools, the same as divine worship. The school boards can condemn lands for school purposes, under the right of eminent domain, just as the railroads do now.

From present Indications the present legislature, like two former sessions of this body, will turn down without much ado the proposition to disfranchise the negro In Georgia. The house committee on constitution ol amendments Wednesday afternoon very promptly voted to report unfa vnrably the measure by Mr. Rose, of Upaon, providing for their dlsfran chlaement This action Is Interesting In view of the fact that this question has been made one of the Issuea of the present gubernatorial campaign. The measure Is similar to that of Congressman Hardwick, when he waa a member of the house, which twice met defeat In successive bodies. A like defeat seems to be In store for Mr. Rosa's effort along tha same line. The conatlutlonal amendment com mlttee held a short session Wednesday afternoon a few minutes after 6 o'clock, Immediately following the adjournment of the house. Those present were: Mr. Perry, of Hall, chairman: Mr. Hall, of Bibb; Mr. Alexander, of DeKalb; Mr. Nowell, of Walton; Mr. Felder, of Bibb, and Mr. Longley, of Troup. The bill provides for an educational qualifies- tlon of voters, and also contains the 'grandfather" clause. The bill was reported unfavorably ipon the motion of Mr. Hall, of Bibb, rhe committee did not lose any time In dlscusatng the meaaure. There waa no vote tat a favorahle recommendation. If Mr. Rosa wishes to carry the Aght to the Aoor of the house, It will be In order for him to move to disagree with the unfavorable report of'the commit tee, when It le reached In the house. If the report Is agreed to that kills the bill. Action on the bill of Senator Wilcox to create the county of Ben Hill from portions of Wilcox and Irwin, with Fllsgerald aa the county seat, waa de ferred, as alio on the bill of Senator Wheatley to create the ofAce of lieu tenant governor.

There waa once a time In our good city of Atlanta when ecreen doors and windows were only used by people who considered them a luxury and not a ne cessity, but aa people become more ed ucated and sclenca grows gradually upon them, then It Is that the burdens of life grow lesser—everybody gets closer together and longevity of life la more desired. Now that Is just the point we would make and on one par- ttcularjmbject—screen doors. They are no longer considered a luxury exclu sively, but, on the othdr hand, art an absolute necessity pure and almple. The files are necessarily exiled, and that terrible mosquito no longer makes his voluntary visits when you have your home snugly closed In by ecreens. Now we have a little tale to tall, and we trust our readers will not judge by the prelude that we are posing ae the good Hamarltan tar selfish reasons—not the case, by any means. We are simply trying to do two things; First, we are naturally interested In the comfort of our customers; second, we are largely overstocked on screen doors—all alias —and by swapping dollars or even log. Ing money to a certain extent we can show our feelings clearly In ihe first case. Here are Ihe prices, ami, mind you. It Is absolutely your loss If you miss this opportunity.
