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.

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; CContinued On Page Two) 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.
