VOLUME 34—NUMBER 38.
PRIZE OFFERER
FOR BEST SLOGAN
The city of Savannah, Ga.,
through its board of trade wants a
slogan or motto which will help
sell the city to the world at large.
Directors of the commercial organ
ization have individually made up a
purse of SIOO which is offered as
a cash prize to the person submit
ting the best slogan in the contest
which is now open and will be clos
ed Dec. 15. Most “up and coming”
American cities today have their
slogans, acquired by natural proc
ess or through the channels of a
contest and Savannah, firm in the
belief that a great future lies ahead
of her and that she has such a
variety of things to offer to the
world that an appropriate slogan
should be “easy picking,” wants the
world to help her select a telling
motto that will have sales valufc.
„ There is to be no limit to the
number of slogans that any one in
dividual may submit in the contest
and the further away from Savan
nah the suggested slogans come
from, the better pleased the Board
of Trude will he. Not that Savan
nah folk are not invited to partici
pate in the contest, but everybody
in Savannah wants “outsiders” from
all parts of the country to have a
hand in the contest.
Here are the rules of the con
test:
Rule No. I—The contest is open
to anybody, anywhere, and contest
ants may submit as many slogans as
they desire, but all slogans to be
eligible must reach the slogan com
mittee by noon, Dec. 15, 1923.
Rule 2—Slogans should be brief,
clear-cut and reflect iivas few words
as possible the advantages of Sa
vannah. Few slogans adopted by
cities of the United States contain
over five words and it is suggest
ed that contestants keep their slo
gans within that number of words.
Rule 3 —Write your slogan or slo
gans on a blank sheet of paper
and put your name and address at
the top of the sheet. The commit
tee will not answer inquiries about
the contest by correspondence; ad
dress all slogans to: “Savannah Slo
gan Committee, Board of Trade, Sa
vannah, Ga.”
The judges of the contest will be:
Mayor Paul Seabrook, Carleton B.
Gibson, Superintendent of Chatham
County (Ga.) Schools; Rev. Dr. Neal
L. Anderson, pastor, Independent
Presbyterian Church and Mr. J. M.
Mallory, General Industrial Agent.
Central Railroad of Georgia. The
decision of this committee will be
final and will be made public as
soon as possible after the contest
closes.
Slogans which have been received
since June 30, 1923, will be elegi
gible in this contest. Contestants
will bear in mind that Savannah’s
advantages include, fine harbor and
fnarine terminal, unsurpassed rail
transportation facilites, unexcelled
clmate, physcal beauty and an al
most contnuous flood of golden
.sunshne. It is veritable forest city
of beautiful homes and offers un
surpassed opportunities to indus
try.
NO BIDDERS
Savannah, Ga., Oct. 2.—When the
Midland Railway was put up for
auction today at the courthouse
there were no bidders for it.
The Baldwin Locomotive Works
bid in three engines for which com
plete payment had not been made

Changes featured in the new Ford Sedan make it a better look
ing, roomier car.
A higher radiator with a trim apron at its base lends dignity
befitting a closed car. The higher hood and enlarged cowl
curving gracefully to the dash give a stylish sweep to its body
lines, and afford additional leg room for occupants of the front
seat.
All body fittings—window regulators, door grips, door latch
levers, door lock, dome light—are finished in nickel. The
upholstery carries a fine dark line on a soit brown background
that does not easily show dust or dirt. Silk window curtains
to harmonize for the three rear windows enhance the style of
the car and add to the comfort of its passengers. See the new
Sedan and other new Ford body styles at our showroom.

LOUISVILLE MRS
BY W. L. PHILLIPS, READ AT
STUNT NIGHT
I’ve been asked for a poem, with
subject assigned.
It’s a job without profit, I’d like
to decline;
But the law of Kiwanis we all
must obey;
My allegiance to duty compels me
this way.
While the subject selected would
never be thought t
Either fit for a poem, or food
for pure thought.
It’s the subject assigned me. and
I’m without choice,
It's the “Louisville Lawyers”, so
I'll go for the boys.
Since the job is forced on me, and
I must obey,
The laws of good poetry much lat
itude claim.
License poetic I’ll use, in saying
some things,
Which the lawyers may reckon I
use for a fling.
It is said in good humor, and just
to make rhyme,
I can't help if it fits one, to make
my verse time.
All my friends are the lawyers, I
wouldn’t hurt one,
I’m sorry they’re vulnerable, yes
rotten, by gum.
I’m afraid to be truthful. I’m one
of the gang,
I’m ashamed to be honest. I’d for
feit my stand.
I’m compelled to be faithful, and let
the cat out
There’s not a blamed one of them
worth talking about.
In the order of service, my name
would come first,
But I’m thankful to tell you I’ve
sized up the bunch
And decided sincerely I'll never al
low.
Such a Buncoing outfit my name
to avow.
I have quit the profession, I’m out
of this crowd,
I‘m only a Ladiesman, of this !
am proud:
If I wait on the widows and write
Poetry,
It’s enough for one fellow, you
all will agree.
Now the First is John Phillips, a
brother of mine,
Do not think I am bragging, when
this I confide.
For I, surely, can’t help it, no mat
ter how sad,
It’s a strange freak of nature, we
had the same dad.
Now if John’s not a booster, I’m
telling a lie,
You can always feel certain he’s
going to lie;
But he’ll boost every minute he’s
able to breathe
And the Angels in Heaven he ask
to believe.
If my memory’s not faulty, Judge
Hardeman's next,
He can tjjlk you hypnotic without
a pretext.
He can punish the guilty and flay
the Ku-Klux.
He's a Judge and a Lawyer, when
ever picked up.
Now the Judge has a brother, I
think he is next;
He's a .folly good fellow, as one
would expect.
This is Wampus, some call him, but
Frank is his name.
It was Zip when in College, That’s
just a pet name.
But while Frank is a Lawyer, he’s
not one to hurt
He’s a swell of a farmer, and
farms in the dirt.
And he wins all his cases by telling
the Court
That his work as a lawyer is simp
ly for sport.
While he’s fond of One dollar, he’s
Lumberman too;
He’s a Judge, and a Lawyer, and
mixes his stew, •
Now the next is Judge Barwick; He
fonder of Two,
If you show him a bargain he’ll
get a move, sure.
When he purchases lumber, I’ve
heard on the street
He then goes to his_ office and
doubles his fee;
For his dealing in lumber is only
pastime,
While the pratcice of law is a con
tinual grind.
/
Rufus G. Price is the next: He’s
found a good birth;
For he’s married Virginia, no bet
ter on earth;
They are loving and happy, con
tented with life,
For she drives him to dinner each
day of his life.
\
If he furnishes dinner, I’ve never
been told,
If he doesn’t, no matter, she nev
er will scold,
They’re the Iftvingest couple you
ever did see,
They make all the married folks
just wish they were free.
R. V. Harris, the next one, keeps
every one dazed,
Just to see how he camps on the
trail Price has blazed:
For he struis like a Bantam at Pol
hilTs front door
And he swears by his colors that
Price was too slow.
He’s a great politician, and makes
his own laws
The greatest Legislator we’ve had
since the war,
He’s a nice little fellow, in spite of
his size,
But he looms like a Mogul before
his girls eyes.
Now it's W. T. Revill. I’ll give you’
a hunch;

LOUISVILLE, GA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1923.
Historic Old Hephzibah High
School Building Must Go to
Make Way For Modern Needs
Erected In 1868 By Baptist Church, It Has Faithfully
Served Community Until Present But Is Now Found In
adequate and Unsafe to House Growing Enrollment.
Richmond County is to lose on of
its landmarks. A building that has
served a community faithfully for
55 years, the Hephzibah high school,
is to be torn down and in its place
will be erected a modern up-to-date
school building, adequate to the
needs of that section of the county.
It *is with a feeling of reluctance
and regret that the people of Hej-h
--zibah, as well as hundreds of men
and women in Augusta, other sc-,
lions of Georgia and distant points,
hid farewell to the old schoolhouse,
which sheltered them in boyhood
and girlhood days. The school en
rollment has greatly outgrown the
historic old structure, however, and
the old school has bent under the
weight of years until it has been
condemned as being unsafe.
This staunch old structure, built
and fostered by the Baptist church
in 1868, has been in public service
continuously. in and year out
the fathers of children sent their
sons and daughters to its class
rooms. Fathers and mothers who
knew every corner of the building,
having spent many hours of their
youthful days within its walls, in
turn sent their children to the
school that was dear to their hearts-
Thus, has served the Hephzibah
high school.
Is Now Outgrown
* With the passing of years, how
ever, the community grew. Each year
found more children to be accommo
dated and each year found the need
for a larger school building more
evident. It was at last found neces
sary to divide the larger classrooms
into smaller ones, and conditions
became so cramped and crowded
that relief was inevitable. The school
board was petitioned by the parents
of children who feared for the safe
LOUISVILLE ACADEH
DEFEATED 58 TOO
Jones—Louisville’s Brightest
Star.
'
The Louisville Academy football
team was defeated in its first game
by the score of 56 to 0. The Wrens
High team was the victor. Th*
Wrens team is playing its second
year and practically every old man
is back. The Louisville Academy
team was outweighed around twelve
pounds per man and with no ex
perience to overcome the disad
vantage in weight and football
knowledge our boys were completely
baffled until the last quarter when
the entire team braced and fought
to the last inch of their power. In
passing we wish to compliment
Wrens on having such a good, clean
team. There was no undue rough
ness and the game went off very
pleasantly. Regardless of the defeat
given to Louisville Academy, we
know of no team that we could have
met, been defeated and yet re
ceived so much profit from. Our
boys came out of the game in good
spirits. They were defeated but not
beaten and we think that they won
quite a moral victory in making
such a gallant fight.
Everyone of the Louisville Acad
emy boys who got into the game
did well. Some did better than
others since they seemed to be en
dowed with football knowledge and
ability. Every man did his best. We
are sure of this, and overly proud
that it is true. H. R. Jones, playing
his first game of football, thrilled
the crowd with his spectacular
work. No player on the field on
either team was more brilliant-
Jones made almost every tackle and
always brought his man down with
a thud —his tackling was as good as
we ever expect to see on a high
school team. Apart from being the
mainstay in Louisville Academy’s
defense, Jones was the one man who
could gain. On two occasions he
sprinted down the field for around
twenty-five yards. We won’t attempt
to make mention of the special work
of each player but must before end
ing this article compliment Norman
Ramsey, Oliver Beall and Robert
Scruggs for their consistency, in
play and for their ever-present en
ergy and never-ceasing efforts. Sam
Revell showed up very well indeed
during the few minutes which he
played, in fact, every man on the
team did extremely good work.
The following men were in the
game, those whose names are fol
lowed by (x) played throughout the
entire game:
William Ramsey, Norman Ram
sey (x), Oliver Beall (x), H. R.
Jones (x), John H. Tucker (x),
Bish Murphy, Newman Robertson,
Kitchens, Johnson, Johnson, Scruggs
(x), .1. W. Powers, Duncan, Revell
and Squirrel Clark (x).
PREPARING FOR FAIR
Griffin, Ga., Oct. 2.—Preparations
for the Griffin and Apalding County
Fair, W’hich is cheduled to open
October 15, are being completed.
Officials of the association reported
today that a number of exhibits has
been entered. The fair will last five
days.
BANDITS CLAIM SOVIET AID
Warsaw—Three Russian bandits
arrested near Lodz declared Soviet
officials had helped them across the
border to Poland.
: ty of their loved ones- It was hard
for them to condemn the old land
mark, the building that brought back
( tender memories of boyhood and
! school days, but the welfare of their
children took the foremost position
in their hearts now, and something
; had to he done to relieve the situa
tion and care for the ever increas
ing enrollment.
The school hoard had patched*
repaired, remodeled and worked on
the tottering old building until
there was no other course left to
follow save that of building anew
I school. The old structure had served
its purpose for more than a half
: century. No complaint could be
made on that score, so it was final
ly decided to abandon the present
building and erect in its place a
modern high school building that
would provide adequate facilities for
the children of the community which
it serves.
Handsome New School
In order to secure funds with
whidi to erect this new building the
boaffii of education was forced to
j.incrcase the school tax levy* but it
is now- assured that Hephzibah is
j to have anew school to cost in the
neighborhood of $75 000. Plans are
now in the hands of the architects
and, according to Superintendent ol
j Schools Lawton B. Evans, the ground
will he broken for the new build
ing within the next sixty days.
There are many who will feel a
; heartache when the old school is
1 demolished, many who secured their
education within its walls and spent
. the happiest days of their lives in
I its shadow, and it is these former
pupils of the old Hephzibah high
school who can gaze on the crum
bled structure and truthfully say:
“Well done, thou good and faithful
, servant."

AUSTRALIAN BALLOT
SYSTEM IN BURKE
Grand Jury Recommends
Measure for Second Time.
Waynesboro, Oct. 2.—The Burke
grand jury has recommended unani
mously the Australian Ballot system
for this county. This law is optional
with the various counties in the state.
Two consecutive grand juries must
recommend its adoption. The April
grand jury recommend it and it
therefore now becomes a law. It
means much to the purity, of poli
tics. It does away with vote buying
and gelling. It will put better men
in office.
The elections in Burke next year
will be held under this system. Sev
eral of the leading citizens of the
county are very much elated over
having this progressive measure
adopted.
