THE SOUTHERN SERVES THE SOUTH t Making a freight car do a bigger day’s work keeps rates down Freight rates are much lower today in comparison with the prices of goods than before the war. The large sums we have spent for im¬ provements enable us, with the loyal cooperation of our employees, to haul heavier trains, with a larger load per car, and at a greater rate of speed.* With the assistance of our shippers, we have also reduced delays in load¬ ing and unloading our freight cars. All of these things help us to reduce our costs per unit of traffic, and this greater efficiency directly benefits our shippers through better service and moderate rates. 4 train The load a wMifi* on the South¬ freight if m Cl THO ern in 1924 watt 4H'% greater than in 1914.

Keep Highways Clean (Atlanta Constitution) On this page are a number of com¬ munications from women club lead ers throughout the country protest¬ ing the alleged proposal of the Geor¬ gia Association of Commercial Sec¬ retaires to “placard highways of the state with billboard advertising." There is a concerted movement throughout the United States, led by the various state federations of wo¬ men’s clubs, to preserve the beauties the highways and to conserve safety and health, by the elimination, aR nu j 8 of placards> advertising kjnds an(] dinlen . sions, and other crazy-quilt advertis¬ ing devices that clutter the road sides, obstruct the views, collect unhealthy and unsightly debris, add to forest fire menaces, and do no real good, in an advertising or any other sense. There is much to be said in favor of this movement, certainly in the interest of keeping the highways at¬ tractive, as free as practicable of hazards, caused frequently by ob srtucted views, and in giving a whole¬ some atmosphere to the rural envi¬ ronments through which highways travel. A great many states in the union have legislated against board adver tising on the highways, and others I regulate it as to size and kind of I boards, location, restrictions, etc. There has been a decided improve ment in outdoor poster advertising as controlled by the agencies that show system and regularity in placing boards. In cities and areas of con jested population there is a place for a billboard here and there, and the character of the advertising on them, as controlled by the agencies de¬ voted to that work, has been decided¬ ly stregthened in the last few years. But in Atlanta today many of the streets are littered with old, out- of date advertising, posters and stickers of candidates’ faces, etc., on electric wire poles, fences, abandoned build¬ ings, old house tops and every other conceivable way of seeking pubilcity by making a horrible looking patch work of the entire community, and cheapening it, and lowering its com¬ munity standing. This should be im¬ I mediately remedied. Along the highways the effort should be to beautify, plant shade trees, grow turfs, open up vistas, and otherwise make attractive every changing scene. It should not be to close-in, or obstruct and make repul sive, by raggedness, of the highways’ abutting lands. “Why so much crime?” asks the Detroit X-wa. Well, without taking time to thoroughly investigate, we should hay it is because there are so many criminals.—Omaha Bee. 6 PUR CENT FARM LOANS 6 PER CENT AN UNLIMITED SUPPLY OF MONEY To place on desirable Peach, Hous¬ ton, Macon and Crawford County farms By N.
