——
The funeral* of Mrs. J. M. Ma

■ itate board of missions, which sent a
IL magnificent floral offering; an officer
In the Eastern Star, secretary of the
Bishop Civic league and was organ*
_ 1st at two Bishop churches.
The death of Mrs. Mayne was
great shock to her many friends.
While ehe had been ill for a short
While, it was not thought that it was
so serious. However, it was discov
ered that an operation was necessary
•nd she was carried to Atlanta and
placed in St. Joseph’s hospital, where
•he breathed her last on Sunday.
The deceased is survived by her
husband and one daughter, Carolyn, lb
years of age; her father, who lives
at Stone Mountain and who for years
county commissioner of Oconee
county, but who resigned because of
111 health. Mrs. Mayne also leaves
three sisters, Mrs. lUimlin, of Jack
sonville, Fla.; Mrs. Robert Jackson,
of Atlanta, and Mrs. Branch, of Mon
roe, and two brothers, Mr. Walter
Woodis, of Stone Mountain and Mr.
•Tames Woodis, of Lithonia.
Mrs. Mayne was only 38 years of
•ge and her taking away is a severe
loss to the community, aside from
the irreparable one to her loved ones.

DEATHS
HOT PRELIMINARY MEET
OF MAYOR AND COUNCIL
At the preliminary meeting of the
mayor and council held last, nght it
was decided to limjigthe amount which
chairman of ffA: various council
imittees could expend on perma
nent improvements without investiga
tion by all the members of the com
mittee and then endorsement by coun
cil, to $50. The motion came from
Mr. Hinton chairman of the finance
committee, and was brought about by
alleged large expenditures by the
street committee. Discussion over
the matter waxed warm and many in
teresting points were raised regard
ing expenditures. The debate was
carried on chiefly between Messrs.
Dudley and Hinton, though other
members of the council joined in.
Gordon Favors Change.
Hugh Gordon came out strong for
the city taking over the cleaning of
streets from the control of the health
department. He said that in such a
case the work would be done, and that
was in favor of it even though a
revision of the charter was necessary.
He said further that certain facts
and figures would be laid before the
board of health -which would cause
them to take notice. It is alleged that,
certain revelations in connection with
theh work of the board of health will be
made soon by the health committee of
council, which has been keeping in
close touch with conditions, and that
these revelations will be startling in
the extreme.
Other Matters Discuased.
As to matters regarding the police
and fire departments it was decided
to give the regular ten day vacation
to every man in each department and
to leave the miner matters in regard
to these vacations to the heads of the
departments. It was further decided
to pay the expenses of Chief Brooks
and Chief McDorman, to the national
conventions, of police and "fire chiefs,
the former to be held in Grand Rapids
and the latter at New Orleans. No
policeman is to be substituted in the
regular force unless five or more of
that department are incapacitated at
one time. The fire committee is also
to open negotiations immediately for
the purchase of a new fire truck to
be placed at the up-town station.
The bilP to be presented before the
session of the legislature which meets
this month,* asking for the extension
of the city limits has been drafted by
city attorney Michael and is now
ready for presentation.
The paving of Milledge avenue will
be taken up immediately, and the
roads in the other sections of the city
will be repaired, if such work is need
ed** The committee on schoqla a)so
reports that certain schools need re
pairs or Improvements, and that work
also will be begun gs soon as possible.
The bonds issued for school and road
purposes were also voted to be taken
from the general fund, and to be used
entirely for the purposes for which
the bonds were issued, and not to be
used to cover the overdraft of the
city which amounts at this time to
something like $17,000.
