C/B a la Spirite
CORSETS
The new ‘ ‘corsetless' ’ figure
can never he yours without a
corset—without the right
corset.
That may sound paradoxi
cal. But it is true. Because
not a woman in a thousand
has a figure which, unsup
ported, displays grace and
smartness.
The right corset is the one
which trains the figure gently
into the simple, natural,
youthful lines, which years
of compression in unnatural
corsets have completely elim
inated.
The C-B a la Spirite Corset
—always pre-eminent in
smartness—meets this new
demand of fashion with the
skill of 40 years of expert cor
set-making. There is no type
of fit tura it will not train into
the new, smart, ‘'uncorseted”
lir.egj
Over 240 different C-B
models, Si to $3. See what
a transformation your own
C-B model will show you
— that model designed for
your very figure.
A visit to our corset depart
ment to see the new C-B
models will give you some
important ideas on the new
corset smartness. Drop in
to-day.
THE STANDARD EV
ERYWHERE FOR THE
WOMAN OF FASHION.

Periodically alarmist reports are sent
out by nervous people that Newnan’s
water supply is impure. It is an old
story, and one that has been refuted
over and over again by scientific tests.
In order to allay the fears of local consu
mers Mr. A. A. Passolt, superintendent
of waterworks, sent samples of the wa
ter to the State Board of Health for anal
ysis. The report of the secretary, Dr.
H. F. Harris, which is printed on this
page, shows that the water is pure and
entirely free from the noxious elements
supposed to contain fever germs. There
is no purer water anywhere.
The Corn Club meeting held in the
court-house Saturday for the purpose
of electing a new president was well
attended by the boys, and a number of
interested farmers as well. Prof. T.
N. McWhorter, of Sharpsburg, was
elected president, and while he was not
present at the meeting and was not
asked before the election if he would
serve in that capacity, we feel sure that
he will do so and that he will make a good
man for the place. The election over,
Mr. S. M. Cown, of Union City, agent
in charge of demonstration work in
North Georgia, gave the boys a very
helpful talk on “Corn Culture.” After
the meeting the boys accepted a pass
into the Palace Theatre to see the
pictures. They acknowledge thanks to
the management of the theatre for this
courtesy.

MONDAY, JULY <5
We print elsewhere a thoughtful,
well-considered article from Superin
tendent Armistead calling attention to
the pressing need of additional room
for housing the school children of New
nan, and it iB of such importance as to
merit the serious attention of our citi
zens and tax-payers. The situation is
too acute for idle argument. The effi
ciency of our schools and the welfare
of our children are involved, and sure
ly no subject can bo nearer to the
hearts of the people than this. When
the fall term opens it will be necessary
to transfer the entire seventh grade of
the Temple avenue school to the Atkin
son school building. As many of the
pupils of this grade reside on the north
side, it will be a hardship upon them to
cover each day the long distance neces
sary to reach the South Newnan school;
and yet this is by no means the least
serious question confronting the school
authorities. There are other problems
of equal gravity to be solved, all of
whicn are touched upon in Superinten
dent Armistead’s communication. Read
it.

Newnan’s Newest Enterprise.
We have assured for our city another
of the most useful agencies of modern
times. We have long had efficient
electric, water, and sewerage systems.
Yet another industry has long been
needed in order to bring Newnan
strictly up-to-date, as compared with
the larger cities. This is a modern gas
plant. Arrangements have just been
completed whereby our town is shortly
to be equipped with an anequate gas
manufacturing plant. This plant is to
be located immediately east of the
union passenger station. Gas will lie
supplied for cooking, heating, and illu
mination. The manager^ of the enter
prise have arranged for three days to
conduct a free gas demonstration. This
is to be held on the vacant lot at the
rear of the Virginia House, on Jeffer
son street. A shipment of rangers,
heaters, and lumps has already been
received for the purpose. A storage
room has also been secured. Display
and office rooms will be located upon
Court Square.
Newnan feels proud of this new ac
quisition to her many city conveniences.
The hundreds of housewives of the city
will he especially happy to have ac
cess to gas for cooking purposes. This
industry was brought to Newnan large
ly through the activities of the Bagley-
Smith.Real Estate and Insurance Co.
This firm is to be commended for the
ellorts which they put forth in landing
the gas plant.
A capable and energetic real estate
agency is a potent factor in the building
up of any town in which it is located.
Witness the grout influence of the
prominent real estate men of Atlanta
upon the progress and development of
that city.
