! Cleveland, O., Nov. 17.—It 13 ex-
; treme cruelty for a minister to re-
i main in his pulpit at $93 a month
when he has a wife and five children
to support. Common Please Judge
Frank C. Phillips declared in an opin
ion handed down in a divorce suit
filed by Rev. Benjamin A. Shorwin
against his wife, yesterday
Judge Phillips refused to gram Rev.
Sherwin a divorce and ordered that he
pay his wife $60 a month alimony.
Custody of their five children was
given to Mrs. Sherwin.
“I consider it extreme cruelty for a
i man with a wile and five children to
remain at his job, even thought It be
that of a minister, which pays only

UTILITY
Just think a moment—is there any other machine
you can buy, no matter how much it costs, that giv
es you more for your money than the bicycle?
Decidedly, No.
Is—there any other means of getting about that is
so inexpensive as the bicycle ?
Decidedly, No. Why it costs you more to walk —
more for shoe leather than for tires.
Perhaps you have not thought of the bicycle as be
ing useful in saving time and money,
l-et us look into this a little.
Health is of first impor’nnce to anybody and every-
Ixxly. What does the bicvcle do for you to bu'ld or
conserve a sturdy, strong'full-blooded body? Bi
cycle riding is a form of exercise that brings into
play practically all muscles of the body, stimulates
circulation of the blood and fills the lungs with a
fbxxl of wonder working fresh air. Every organ of
the body is benefited, the eye is kener, the brain is
dearer, the entire system toned up, without tiring an
ounce of human tissue.
Many a boy is riding a bicycle today because the
doctor has prescribed it.

Projects Involving Expendi
ture of $1,690,000 Finished
And 122 Additional Projects
Aggregating $10,500,000 are
Now Under Way.
Atlanta. Oa„ Nov. 17.—The State
Highway Department has actually
completed highway proJoctB involving
on expenditure of $1,690,000 and has
under construction 122 additional pro
jects which will aggregate $10,600,-
000, according to announcement made
recently by the department. This rec
ord of completed construction has
been accomplished during the past 12
months and within the next year the
comprehensive highway program,
which will link up every county In the
State and weld the commonwealth in
to a scientifically arranged transporta
tion unit, will have been Immeasun
aBIy advanced.
The completed projects give every
section of the state an opportunity
to see at first hand Just what the high
way department Is doing, what the
underlying highway policy of the
state actually means. The 122 pro
jects under construction are located
In every congressional district and In
more than two-thirds of the counties
of the state.

rying out the program Includes an
army of 3,500 men: 1200 teams; fif
teen steam shovels; 33 road rollers;
108 road scrapers and similar machin
ery; 75 concrete mixers; twelve nock
crushers and five asphalt distributing
machines.
In most instances, the completed
projects were constructed with funds
made up Jointly by the State, county
and Federal Government. The pro
jects under construction are, in a ma
jority of cases, financed In like man
ner. Many counties have allowed the
detriment to handle tholr highway
funds, also turning over the engineer
ing, inspecting and auditing details to
tho department authorities. The en
tire amount of Federal Aid funds
expended thru the department.

DAUNTLESS FLOUR
A question has, It is understood,
been raised as to the tax returns and
payments on the large estate and it Is
not at all Improbable that the claim
of citizenship in the state of Califor
nia, said to be made in connection
with the Sheppard properties, will be
carefully Investigated by the Btate of.
Georgia. !
The estate, it Is understood is a]
very considerable one, nnd if-reports
are well founded, the prospective In
quiry will be next In importance only
to the matter of the Jim Smith and
the J. B. White estates. t
