BANDITS ESCAPE WITH
$12308AT ROME, GA.
Rome, Ga,, July 27.—Floyd county
ofTlcers were without definite clues to
guide them in their search Saturday
night for two unmasked bandits who
held up two paymasters of the Town
send Lumber Company on the out
skirts of Rome Saturday und fled
with $12,308.
One vague clue was a copy of the
license number borne by the uutomo-
bile in which they traveled. The num
her was jotted down hurriedly and
with some uncertainty as the car
sped away.
Rome officers communicated with
the office of the Secretary of State
in Atlanta and learned that a license
corresponding to the number they
gave was issued to a resident of Au
gusta.
The paymasters, E. P. Hicks and
Hugh Daniel, carrying the weekly
pay roll in bags, were traveling in an
automobile to the plant of the Amer
ican Chatillon Corporation, near
Rome, where their company’s work
men were engaged in construction.
The bandits aproached from the
rear, forced the pay roll car to the
side of the highway and held Hicks
and Daniel at bay with shotguns.
They snatched the bags, cut the ig
nition wires of the pay car and fled
toward Rome. An employe of the
lumber company approached as the
robbers were turning their car
around in the road. He stood with
the paymasters and watched it dis
appear.

This is a fast-moving, breathless
age. We hurry from morning until
night—touching only the surface of
things, skimming rapidly over the
joys and sorrows alike. Not taking
time to do those gracious things,
those fine things, that go under the
head of courtesy. Running away
from the duties and obligations that
are apt to eat up the minutes.
Not realizing that our hurry—
our ecstasy of haste—will vanish as
the dust vanishes when a bit of
cloth is brushed over it.
Not realizing that our small acts of
courtesy—our bits of graciousness—
will last. That they will rise from
out of our lives until they are as
beautiful as towers against the sky.
As beautiful, and as arresting, and
as fine.
I once saw a girl get a coveted po
sition—out of a great group of ap
plicants—because she forfeited her
place in the line and ran forward to
pick up the package that a rather
plain old woman had dropped.
She didn't know that the old wom
an was the mother of the firm’s
president—and that he was watching.
She only knew that the woman was
old, and that it was a part of her
code to be deferential towards age.
I once knew a girl who was not in
vited 4o a Yale prom because she kept
a young man waiting, on a windy,
rainy corner, for 35 minutes. She
had met the young man rather cas
ually—she didn't know that he was
a senior at a great university, and
that he had thought her charming
enough to be his guest. She only
knew that she had wanted to dally
over her shopping—and she was too
complacent about herself to feel the
need of making an apology. She
never knew about the party she
missed—but I did! Should I have
told her?
Once I saw a sophisticated young
lady—with a clever way of turning a
phiuse and or building an epigram—
conversationally toriuu a boy, wno
v>as \e.y sny, lor a wnoie evening,
.me puun gin wno was kind anu wno
—tucauily—took him irom uie
elutenes oi tue girl and her guests—
received ten pounds ol canuy and a
dozen orcnids me next morning, r or
me boy—muing his 24-karat gold
under a busnea oi reticence—was tne
son of a multi-millionaire.
Today, at luncheon, i listened to a
lovely lady who lamed about her
mother.
“Hiy mother,” said this lady, “is lov
ed by everybody. There’s nothing my
mother wouldn't do to make the way
easier for her friends. And—for that
matter—easier for the most casual
passers-by! It doesn’t matter wheth
er it is a dress to be fitted, or a let
ter to be written—whether some one
is ill or sad or lonely. Whether it is
food folks need or money or love!
My mother will give them all that
she has to yive. She is never too busy
to*be gracious!”
How many of you girls are too
busy to be gracious? How many of
you remember to say those neces
sary words of thanks and of appre
ciation? How many of you pass along
that compliment from the boss?
How many of you have neglected to
write that bread and butter letter?
How many of you have apologized
for the thing you said or did so has
tily ? How many of you have been
the first to offer friendship to the
new girl in the office—the one who
is shabby and has only one serge
suit?
How many of you are just skim
ming over life? Like those funny lit
tle bugs that skim over the surface
of a summer brook? (Incidentally, I
never saw one of those bugs get any
where; did you?).
And how many of you are building
beautiful structures of courtesy and
graciousness? Towers that will rise,
in mellow beauty, to the clouds?
That will last?

Rallying from unconsciousness
which had prevented officers ques
