1898 COLUMBIA PAD CALENDAR
A Very Useful Memorandum Block, Filled
With Bright Readable Thoughts.
For twelve years the attractive little
Columbia pad calendar has been gain
ing in fame and prestige, yet the thir
teenth edition which has just been
issued seems to have outdone its twelve
predecessors and formed itself by an
unequalled combination of good things.
The public has become accustomed to
the annul advent of the Columbia calen
dar and its appearance is always looked
forward to and greeted with interest
and pleasure.
The arrangement of the 1898 calendar
is altogether unique, convenient and
helpful. Plenty of space is allowed
for memoranda which can be used from
day to day in the form of a journal and
preserved as a record if one desires. The
arrangement of dates is such that they
can be referred ro in a moment and the
moon’s phases are indicated for the
benefit of cyclers who wish to keep
posted on the best time for night riding.
The pages throughout are scattered
with bright thoughts, witty and enter
taining sbuitys and verses from the
pens of Columbia riders who have
found inspiration from Columbia rides
and sent their thoughts in to brighten
the calendar’s pages, also attractive pen
and ink sketches everywhere.

. Conncllmw Denny Starts a Crusade
Against Dirty S'rnts.
) „ .-—
DELIVERS TALK TO POLICE FORCE
i 2 ' ■
He Has Been Given Carte Blanche In
His Commendable Efforts For
1 Three Weeks.
‘‘Within the next three weeks we
, are going to make Rome the cleanest
city in this country,” so spoke Mr R
A. Denny, chairman of the polioe
committee yesterday.
He was dead in earnest, and more
1 means to carry out his most commen
dable purpose to the letter. At the
[ council meeting Monday evening Mr.
, Denny made a stirring talk to the
council on this line. He asked that
for the next three weeks the matter
: be given entirely over to him, and
> that with the co operation of Sanitary
■ Inspector Lumpkin and the police,
> Rome should be made cleaner than
ever before in her history.
( To this .proposition the council
, readily agreed, and the following res
olution was passed:
’ “That the cleaning of streets and
sidewalks and obstructions thereon
together with enforcement of ordi
' nances appertaining thereto be refer
red to the chairman of police commit
' tee until next meeting of council, the
1 mayor and council individually and
i collectively agreeing not to interfere
with the matter for said time.”
Yesterday at noon Mr. Denny met
the entire police force in the mar
shal's office, and gave them a straight
forward and earnest talk.
He told them that he intended to
stand by them in enforcing all ordi
naces pertaining to keeping the streets
and sidewalks clean, and expected
their co-operation. * ‘You gentlemen
and Mr. Lumpkin will have to do the
work and I will get the ‘cnssings’”
said Mr. Denny. *‘l can stand my
part, if you can yours.”
Four city scavenger carts will be
put to work this morning. They will
work from 6a. m to 12 m and from 1
to 5 p.m. Broad street and in fact all
the streets will be swept as clean as a
floor and kept that way.
All the ordinances relative to keep
ing the streets, sidewalk and premi
ses clean will be enforced to the let
ter. There is an ordinance relative to
allowing stock on the streets. Stock
of no kind is allowed out in that part
of Rome lying between the rivers,
but they are permitted to go in the
streets in the Fourth and Fifth wards
up to 9 o’clock at night. The good
people, however, have abused this
special privilege in some instances,
but all stock found on the streets after
9 o’clock in these wards will be em
pounded.
Mr. Denny should receive the hear
ty commendation of every citizen of
Rome in his most praiseworthy un
dertaking, and most of them will give
him all the assistance possible.
1 He spoke very highly of the police
force, and complimented them on
their efforts to enforce ordinances.
