Atlanta Real Estate
is just as good as
Government Bonds
and will pay better interest.
To invest in government bonds requires au out
lay of capital. Some of us haven’t got the money.
So we had better look into the Real Estate situa
tion. That will help us to save, and at the same
time the property will be increasing in value. So
we have a change to make money both ways. Sup
pose we take ' * '
The Real Estate Page
of The Georgian and look into the offerings of the
leading realty dealers? We will find
Something Worth While.

GEN. LEE WAS ENTITLED
70 VICTORY AT ANTIETAM
By Private I mused Wire.
London, Aug. 16.—The report of the
umpire on the battle Antietnm, Gen
eral lank Hamilton, In just out. The
reproduction wai by British regular
and volunteer troops In the maneuvers
<>n Salisbury plain. Sir lank declares
that under modern conditions Lee
would have won a great victory.
General Hamilton says that the bat
tles of the American civil war are
much neglected by European students.
The chief lesson to be gained from the
reproduction of the battle of Antietam
is that with modern artillery, heavy
field guns, howitzers and quick-firing
ordnance field guns the position of the
defender would be changed. Instead of
being forced to withdraw over the
Potomac, Lee with these weapons could
have secured a sweeping victory*
The commander who was Lee’s un
derstudy on Salisbury plain, General
Allenby, smashed up the enemy’s ad
vance and the disposition of his troops
were such that they entirely deceived
the attacking side. The Lee of to
day, in General Hamilton’s Judgment,
by vlrtuo of a line of defense filled wltl
modern artillery armament can neu
trallxe the numerical supremacy which
Lee had to face.

TO BECOME MODERN CRUSOE
JUST FOR SAKE OF SCIENCE
By Private Leased Wire.
New York, Aug. 16.—For the sake of
science, Alfred J. Klein, of the taxi
dermy department of the American
.Museum of Natural History, will be
come a Robinson Crusoe on a desert
island,
Klein has completed plans for a
temporary exile on Kerguelen Island,
in the southern part of the Indian
ocean, on the border of the Antarctic
ocean. He is going to collect skins of
sea elephants, a kind of seal larger
than a walrus, which are said to exist
in the seas about that Island. Klein
"111 also shoot birds for the museum’s
collection and make a thorough Investi
gation of every species of every living
thing there, not excepting mbsqultoes
and files. He will leave this city In
the early part of September and sail
from Boston. The voyage will take
six months. Klein will take with him
the latest camping outfit and canned
food, but he expects to live chiefly on
what he can shoot on the Island.
The captain of the Whaler has made
a contract with the museum authorities
to take Klein to the Island and give
him occasional help on condition that
be can have the sea Jlons which Klein
shoots.
Dr. F. A. Lucas Is responsible for
sending the young man out on the ex
pedition as he thinks some Important
developments will be made on that Is
land. Mosquitoes are said to exist
there, but not the kind found In this
part of the world, as they are not
equipped with wings. There are aim
on the Island peculiar species of tor
toise and birds, which have never yet
been seen In the museums.

Chicago, Aug. 16.—declining to con
ede to Mr. Bryan the right to ques
tlon his Democracy or his membership
In the national committee. Democratic
National Committeeman Roger Sulli
declares, In a statement which he
la sending broadcast over the state,
that he has no idea of resigning from
the committee.
In part, he says:
"Judgment ns to my Democracy
rests with the Democrats of the dls
trlct In which I live. .My title to mem
bership in the national committee has
been conferred and confirmed by
higner authority than Mr. Bryan.
"In the letters attributed to Mr. Bry
an there Is this plain statement: ’Mr.
Sullivan was selected as national com
mitteeman by delegates who were not
chosen by the convention.’ If this
statement is Mr. Bryan’s, then he per
sists In a contention that was declared
by the last Democratic national con
mention to be a misrepresentation.
"It Is true that the seatM of certain
delegates were contested. But these
contests were not decided by fraud, and
. Bryan knows It. Dos Mr. Bryan
den’-’ the authority of the Democratic
national convention? The national
convention by a vote of 647 to
confirmed the right of the legal Illinois
delegates to theii%seats. Those dele
gates elected tne national committee’
man by a vote of 49 to 5. The na
tional convention again confirmed that
action. To allege fraud against my
right to a seat In the national com
mittee Is to Indict the last national
convention and its lenders for com
pounding a felony. Fan even Mr. Bry
nn sincerely nnd honestly do this? * T
not If he expects to accept
presidential nomination two years
hence, for such a nomination must
come from those men I have named
and their associates. No man, not even
Mr. Bryan, <ann afford to accept any
nomination, much less a nomination
for the presidency, at the hands of
men whom he believes to be abettors
of ‘high crimes and misdemeanors' and
perpetrators of fraud.”

By Private Leased Wire.
New York, Aug. 16.—Mrs. Blna F.
Vertnult, alias Mrs. Helen Hamilton,
who Is accused of swindling many suit

Eighty-second street, it was said she
had gone to the country, but a person
who knew’ her said she was staying
with friends only two blocks away.
At the district attorney’s offle^ word
was received that the woman was de
termlned upon revenge and would de
mnnd the arrest of the three rejected
suitors upon whose complaints she had
been dragged into court. The only
thing that will make her change her
mind is the withdrawal of the charges.
The affairs of Mrs. Verruult took a
new' phase when it whs learned thut on
Thursday night a woman, dark and
handsome, called the local representa
tive of h Philadelphia paper ami paid
for a "personal" advertisement, signed
"Action."
It called for a partner to engage In
a good paying enterprise that would
need from $2,000 to $3,000 for organ
ization nnd establishment. The clerk
declared the woman to be very like
the printed pictures of "Mrs. Hamil
ton.”

PARK BOARD ANGRY
AT PROPOSED ACTION
The park board, believing the city
council will attempt to overstep Its
bounds end trespass on posted land,
will rise up to u man and voice its dis
approval of $1,000 being taken from the
park appropriation for the erection of
temporary* sheds, which It haa been
decided to build before the State Fair
convenes in October.
Some time ago It was decided to
erect these sheds so ns to have sufll-
cient room for exhibits after giving the
agricultural building to the vehicle
manufacturers to be used in connec
tion with their convention. The park
board at Its session Wednesday after
noon voiced the sentiment that the
Fair Association would gain by - the
erection of the sheds and not the park
and thut the Fair Association should
stund the extra expense.
The meeting Wednesday afternoon
was an Important one. There will be
an effort t.i build a sewer at Piedmont
park where rain water Is cutting Into
the chert road. An attempt will be
made by Chairman Hancock in coun
cil and Jeromj Jones before the flnam e
committee to have tho wages of park
hhnds raised from $1.75 to $2 a day.
Other matters of a routine nature were
acted upon.
Resolutions were adopted extending
the sympathies of the board to Secre
tary Dan Carey because of ^»ls recent
bereavement.
Maybe a natural question If your
printing has never borne It.
Perfectly natural. If you don’t know
the class of work this lab-tl appears
upon and the methods that go with it.
Hundreds of business nien asked
"Why Thi» label?" for years—before
they had it on their printing.
Then they found the answer In cor
rectly executed work that stood the
test of service, and helped build up
trade for them.
They hove no doubt now. Why .
should you—when we stand ready to
convince you?
