A PRINTING ESTABLISHMENT
THAT ADVERTISES DAWSON
lEADING INDUSTRIAL l’.»\l’Eß{
SAYS NEWS PRINTING PLANT
CREDIT TO STATE.
The Industrial Index, published at
Columbus and one of the foremost
industrial journals of the South, had
the following to say in its last issue
of a Dawson enterprise:
‘Dawson is often spoken of as the
bhiggest town of its size in Georgia
Tocal people accept this distinction
with one exception; they strike out
“Georgia’’ and substituta ‘‘the
world.”
“Be that as it may, Dawson has an
establishment that is advertising the
town throughout the South; a manu
facturing plant that would do credir
t 0 a city of 100,000 inhabitants.
“Just as The Dawson News is spok
on of as the model weekly newspaper
in Georgia so The Rainey Press is
-unique among all its competitors.
‘There is this difference: The Daw
son News is necessarily confined to
its territory, Southwest Georgia,
whereag its twin enterprise, The
Rainey Press, pays no attention
whatever to state lines, but goes out
and gets business most anywhere;
and gets repeat orders, too.
“Just now The Rainey Press is
turning out, in addition to many oth
er orders, a book of 160 pages and
cover, 5,800 copies in all. This par
ticular contract formerly went to a
big Savannah printing firm, but this
vear the service of The Rainey Press
and its peculiar facilities along this
line captured the business. This
plant, which is one of the finest
equipped in the South, produces high
class catalogs and booklets, and its
warehouse, bank and commercial
printing is noted for its high quality.
“clem E. Rainey, head of this
printing enterprise, is an earnest be
liever in direet advertising. ilis ex
perts design and arrange booklets,
leaflets and other direct advertising
matter for customers, and the me
chanical equipment of the plant is
such that original and striking ideas
can be carried out in this shop with
ease. As llustrating the character of
the firm's customers not long ago
The Rainey Press turned out a big
order for the Bagle and Phoenix .\‘!ins{
at Columbus.” |

!l":unous Hotel (ets Infested With
i Nimble-Minded and Nimble-Fin
| gered Gentry, and It Becomes Nec
essary to Thin Them Out.
l NEW YORK.—They held their ear
;l_v winter house cleaning at the Wal
idort‘-.A.stm‘ia yesterday, and a partic
lularly good time was held by Housei
Detective Joe Smith. Twice a year, |
!in the late spring and early winter,]
(it becomes necessary for George C.j
| Boldt to remind undesirables that the
Waldorf does not provide nice big‘
leather chairs exclusively for the
comfort of persons with designs upon
the cash of respectable beings; that
Peacock alley is decidedly more than
a clearing house for bunco artists,
and that while the Waldorf is always
hospitable it insists upon the privi
lege of choosing its company. For
the Waldorf by reason of its very
fame suffers, as all famous hotels
suffer, from the presence of those in
search of a gilded opportunity.
John Smith was trained in Scotland
Yard, where diplomatic astuteness is
regarded as a necessary adjunct of
the business of detecting. Mr. Smith
can be as gnileful as a serpent, but
lhe can kick with the beautiful pre
cision and violence characterizing
young Mr. Otis Guernsey of New Ha-
lven, Conn.
The combination of thiese useful
qualties rid the Waldorf vesterday
of about twenty very well dressed
affable persons who never go to a
looking glass when they want to see
an honest man. Assisted by his se
cret service staff, which Mr. Boldt
maintaing at an expense of $25,000
a yvear for the protection of patrons,
Detective Joe beat the covers and
shikarried into the open this numer
ous company of fleecers and bilkers
and plain, unadorned grafters. |
All Done Without Racket, {
. It was all accomplished smo()thly‘
tand quietly; with no scandal or up
roar. Perhaps some of the patrons
of the hotel observed Smith about
| the middle of the afternoon gently
I'ease down the corridor that leads to
the men's cafe and bar Baron Hein
rich Schmidt (at least that is what
the individual calls himself) and pro
pel the baron through the revolving
door giving upon Astor court. Per
haps some lookerson heard the bar
on’s high indignation drown the mut
ter and hum of tax traffic, for the
‘baron threatened Mr. Smithe with the
vengeance of the Kaiser and promis
ed personally to command the firing
squad that would some day back Mr.{
Smith up against the vzll {
The baron was, in fact, typical ott
the crew that was ejected. In past]
vears the loafers that stretched their
legs in the corridors of the Waldorf
practiced the old bunco games when- |
ever they managed to scrape an ac
gquaintance with rich and injudicious
persons—the sick engineer game, the
Spanish prisoner game, the wireless
wire tapping game, and 8o on.
But in the last year, and growing
out of the war abroad, an even more
dangerous species of bunco has ap
peared. More ‘than half of the men
who were compelled to leave the Wal
dorf yesterday have pretended to be
war brokers anxious to make big
deais with manufacturers stopping at
the hotel. Several of them displayed
papers purporting to be credentials
from England or France or Russia,
documents that were obviously forg
ed. Their method was to make use
ful acquaintanceships, lead up to the
topic of how quickly large fortunes
were to be made in these days, if one
were on the inside of things, and then
offer to swing a big contract for war
supplies or munitions.
Every One Well Dressed.
Others of the evicted ones were
just cheap grafters, loafing about in
the hope that some one would buy
them a drink or a meal or lend them
$5 or that Mercury, god of thieves,
would send them a victim ripe for
picking. Some of them had been
honoring the hotel and Mr. Boldt by
a generous use of the Waldorf’'s sta
tionery, going to the point even of
stuffing their coat pockets with letter
paper when they finished monopo
lizing writing tables and chairs.
Still others were of the type of ras
cal perfectly well known to the house
detective trans-Atlantic ¢rooks,
nimble-minded and nimble-fingered,
whose trade has been ruined by the
war and the consequent interruption
of steamer traffic. And all of them
were well dressed. i
The method of ejection was enter
taining. Smith, for example, went
into action in the long wcorridor thatl
leads from the office desk to the|
men's cafe. Observing two persons |
whoge absence was earnestly desire(}|
'by the management Smith planted]
himself squarely in front of them and |
remarked to an assistant just loud!
enough for the two to hear:
“Bill, you and I are going to thei
par. If we find a certaip pair of |
crooks sitting here when we come |
back I will bet you a shilling that Il
can kick one of them harder than |
you, Bill, can kick the other. How |
about it?” '
“You are on, Mr. Smith,” said Bill|
instantly. ;
And when they returned from the|
bar and passed the empty chairs they |
grinned at each other with perfect |
satisfaction. l
In other instances Smith or his as-i
sistants merely bent over the sus-|
pected ones and said positively and
coldly: ['
“The Waldorf-Astoria can get,
}along without you. It intends to get !
along without you. Go! Git! Scoot!;
I qon’t like your face and I will;
never learn to like it. One! Two! !
Three! All right!” ll
