Oestruefive Fire
Tuesday Nigl,t
The residence of Mr. C. E. Yan-
landinglmm located just out of the
city limits on South Broad Street
was entirely consumed by (ire last
Tuesday night about 12-45.
This wae a seven room house
and had not been occupied for
some weeks but was to have been
occupied within a few days by Mr.
G. B. Godwin.
Too much headwao had been
gained by the flames for efforts to
amount to anything to save the
building and the efforts of the fire
boys were 'confined to keeping the
flames from spreading to other
nearby houses.
A transportation line has just
one thing to sell and that one
thing is service.
The line that sells good] service
is a good line. I
It is the object of the Central of
Georgia Railroad to sell its patrons
the very best service. Our ser
vice is not a thing supplied by any
one employe, nor does it consist
of special attention to any one in
dividual patron. It means 'good
efficient, courteous attention from
our working force to all the people
or as near this idea as is humanly
possible.
We try to render such service
all the time. We are not content
with having given the people of
the South good Service; we want
to make it better; we wish to go to
the limit in making travel easy for
the whole people.
If you are going on any trip
that may be accomplished by use
of our lines, let our nearest repre
sentative know about it. It will
be good exercise for his talents to
practice courtesy and efficiency on
you.
