probable that the present committee
will take tip this feature and suggest
names for the various streets and
nv-nuos and lanes In the annexed ter
ritory.
A suggestion has been made and has
reached the committee that Harde-
min avenue be given the name of
Georgia avenue because of Its being
a continuation of that avenue. It ta
probable, however, that objection will
be made to this change of name. It
is regarded as a fixed name In tho
first place, and it lajiamcd after one
of the moat prominent families living
In Vinovllle at the time, and one of
tho names that will always be closely
connected with the history of Macon.
There la considerable sentiment in tho
objection.
The same objection will he made
to any attempt to change the names
of other streets in Vlnevllle and Hu-

The committee will be called upon
to untangle a number of pussies la

why there is not a 1100 block on First
