Here is the record: Population doubled within the past two years; nearly one hundred dwellings have been constructed during that period. The construction of business houses has been proportionately active, keeping pare with the growth of population and the ex¬ pansion of business which has increased more than one hundred percent. % The recent construction of t he largest Cement Plant in the South, near this City has given added impetus to business and contributed in population. This huge plant is now being enlarg¬ ed to nearly double its present capacity. 1 Perry has three modern and attractive hotels, enjoying the patronage of thousands of tourists who pass this way. The latest is the JSew Perry Hotel, recently completed at the cost of $90, 000. Perry has an $85,000 Consolidated School, providing the best \ educational facilities for her children, three good churches, modern city conveniences, water and lights and a pure water supply. Perry enjoys the distinction of being located on two of the most logical and popular highway routes to Florida from the North and Middle West, which accounts for the fact that 75 per rent of the auto tourist traffic from these sections pass through this City. One of these principal routes is now being paved and plans are under way to pave all the Highways in the County and the principal Streets in the City within the next year.

Holtsinger i ENDLESS MERCHANDISE CHAINS The Atlanta Journal prints as a matter of news the information that the city council of Atlanta has just made it illegal to hold “endless chain” sales in that city. The local account of the action of council says: ---- Mayor Sims on Wednesday ap proved the ordinance adopted Mon¬ day by general council making it il¬ legal for any person, firm or corpo | ration chain” to operate a so-called “endless system of merchandising in Atlanta. It becomes effective imme¬ diately. 1 Mayor Sims signed the ordinance after the city attorney had ruled that it was entirely legal, and asserted that it could not be successfully at j tacked in the courts. Mayor Sims said he was in favor of such a law, hut that he hesitated to sign it until its legality had been determined. The ordinance specifically pro¬ vides that hereafter any person found operating a so-called “endless chain' system of merchandising, would be guilty of violating the laws of the city, and would be subject to punishment by fine or imprisonment or both upon conviction. C. V. Hohenstein, secretary of the Retail Merchants’ Association, who launched the fight to have such mer¬ chandising outlawed in Atlanta, de¬ clared the passage of the measure would mean the savings of thousands of dollars to Atlanta buyers, and would rid the city of an underisable system of selling goods to retail buyers. Similar laws are being adopted in cities all over the country, Mr. Hohen¬ stein said.
