Cataa Drug G*. ;; A Story Showing its Change In Halt a Century < > — < > i > <► ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦❖♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ During the past half century a groat change has come over whin we call the dignity of labor—not that labor Is a more honorable calling than formerly, but it is so regarded. In America we took originally our Ulcus concerning trade and labor from England, where neither was then regarded as a tit oc cupation for a gentleman. Fifty years ago one might not In America sell goods at retail and muiutaiu a first class social position. The (laughters of gentlemen and ladies could not earn money without being taboo by persons of their own set. Today our merchants and social princes are retailers. The daughters of well to do persons prefer to work rath- or than wait for husbands, and many a young man with a taste for mechan ics prefers to make his start In the machine shop rather than in the count ing room. Nevertheless snobbery lias not died out. It will never die, tilling its ranks mostly from the get-ricli-qulck ele ment. Modern high social life is a combination of refined persons and snobs. For the snobs nothing is quite good enough. Itellued men think little of taking off their coats and doing a bit of carpenter work about their homes. Their wives are every day coming more and more to dispense wilb hired help. One August day a young mu4i knock ed at the door of Airs. Bradbury, who lived In a small town called Glendale, situated in a beautiful valley, and said to her: “I am looking for a place to spend a month in which to regain health im paired from overwork. I have been told that if I can get you to take me in 1 will be very pleasantly situated." The lady looked the young man over and consented to lake him to board and treat Dim, if lie so wished, as a member of her family. lie gave iiis name as Charles Treat, but concerning his antecedents or his occupation said nothing. The accepting of Mr. Treat as a member of the family meant lniin to him than would til first appear. Glendale society was more than usual ly pleasant, and Mrs. Bradbury, whose ancestors had been its leaders In for mer times, though she was now poor, retained her membership. Many good men and women had of late years been ndmilted to social companionship, Im the snob had not been kept out. Nev ertheless Glendale social life was suf ficiently progressive to taka persons for their intrinsic worth. For the first week of his sojourn in Glendale Charles Treat divided his day between sitting on, Mrs. Rrndbury's porch and taking walks in 1 Do country round about. Then Mrs. Brad bury, finding that in 1 was growing impatient to get back to work, suggested that h< would be better satisfied to remain if he had some companionship and offer ed to introduce him to the young men and young women of the place. Treat consented and became a member of the younger social circle of Glendale There were tennis courts there, in which those devoted to outdoor sports gathered, and Treat found the game both attractive and of advantage to his health. He was well liked, though not what is called popular. Popular young men and women in society are usually ephemeral. Unless they have sterling qualities they are liable to drop out of the esteem in which they are held, taking a back seat Among the more refined young men and worn en Treat was considered an equal among those whose parents had re eently got rich he found little favor They required some information ns to what was his occupation, and he did not seem inclined to gratify their curi osity. Treat took more especially to tennis than to the other methods of recrea tion. He played a good game, though at the time, his health having been impaired by overwork, he did not play a strong one. It was noticed that lie was dreamy—that is, he was liable to be thinking of something else than what he was doing. On several occa sions while at tenuis, struck by a sud den thought while a laill was to lie sent back, lie would let it go by with out seeing it. This was not. acceptable to his partner, when lie had one nnd gained him tiie mime of “woolguther- er." One of tDe young men who no ticed this Idiosyncrasy declared that Treat was either inad or a genius, add ing that geniuses were part lunatic nnd, uftor ail, there was not miuti difference between the two. But the others would not agree to this. In these days wealth counts for so much those possessing It naturally be come social leaders. Among the young Indies of Glendale was Miss Martha Broadnax, whose father had made a great deal of money In manufacturing bones into fertilizing material. Miss Broadnax, being able to entertain more lavishly than any of the young women in Glendale, .naturally fell into the po of leader of the younger set. the time that Mrs. Bradbury sitiou About Introduced f'harles Treat this young woman hud begun to assume the right to pass upon tiny person who was re ceived within the circle. Not having been consulted a* to Treat’s admis sion, she was not especially gracious to him. When asked for n reason for not approving of him she said that no one know anything about him. lie uiiglit be a plumber; he might be h "counter Jumper!" he might be n car penter. Since Miss Broadnax's father had made his money out of the bones of rotting animals the strictures in volved in her denunciation of tlieso oc cupations did not come with good grace. A certain Miss MaeKnlght, whose fa ther had been a judge on the bench, on hearing of Miss Broadnax's remarks said that the world had Improved in its estimate of persons in separating those of refinement from their occupa tions; that it was possible fora plumber, a "counter Jumper" or a carpenter to bo a refined mini nnd It was possible for a gentleman to engage In the manu facture of fertilizing material. This bit of repartee was appreciat ed by those of the old school who wore not especially pleased with Miss Itrml- nax's assumption of the right to turn down persons on account of their occu pations. However, Miss Broadnax from her own standpoint won a signal vie tory. One day an automobile drew up In haste In front of Mrs. Bradbury's house. Mr. Treat got out, hustled into the car and was carried away, it so happened that Miss Broadnax was passing Mrs. Bradbury's at the time in her limousine nnd, seeing tin* departure of Mr. Treat, took it into Iter ItcSil that he had been carried away by a plain clothes policeman, liesolving to make sure of the matter, site ordered her chauffeur to follow. Twenty miles from Glendale the auto containing Tjyeat drew up til it large factory. The young man nllghtcd and entered one of the buildings. Miss Broadnax drove tip to the ollho and. Introducing herself ns a d liter ol I’eter Broadnax, the great lun.uil'aelur- or of fertilizing material, asked to be shown through the works. Her applica tion was granted with alacrity, ami during her inspection she caught sight of Charles Treat In a pair of overalls bending over a machine. “Greasy mechanic!" site exclaimed to herself. "I knew there was something tiie matter with him. if he Isn't a criminal lie's a common laborer, nnd that’s not much hotter." So Miss Broadnax was driven buck to Glendale and the next day gave out that what ever the others of the social circle did in tlm premises she would no longer countenance Mr. Treat. There was a time when her state ment that she hud discovered that a member of the social circle of Glendale worked in overalls In a factory would have been sufficient to eject him. In the twentieth century there is a broad er view (if such matters. Mr. Trent was not turned down by bis associates, but was treated by different ones in different ways. lie returned to them in a few days without mentioning where lie had been and soon noticed tlint something had happened. Sonic of his former associates scarcely no ticed him. some treated him as usual, and he nntlqi'd Unit .Miss MucKnight wits tjiitismilfy cordial. No one felt obliged to tell Mr. Trent he hud been Irm-kel to a factory and had been seen in overalls, and since lie was Ignorant of this fad smite time was required for him to realize that he was arhoiig certain persons persona non grain. Naturally Miss MnoKnight's cordial treatment of him drew him to her, he supposing that lie was attrac tive to her. The young lady, unwill ing that he should mistake the cause of tiie favor site showed him. finally told him the story of Miss Broadnax following him to the factory, which explained the coolness shown him b.v certain members of t)ie social circle. Treat held his ground in Glendale till 1 the last of August, when tie depart ed, and a few days later every one of his associates there received an invi tation to Inspect a new cannon he had invented at the Duckworth Arms com pany on an early day in September, the day after Labor day. Jt was tile Duckworth Arms company’s factory where Mr. Treat had been seen in over alls. Naturally the announcement that Treat was an inventor and had per fected—as he had done his own work manship—a new cannon created quite a stir in the Glendale seijil circle. There were girls in that circle who were looking out to marry an estab lishment and would be only too glad to marry a man in overalls if he were a successful Inventor made rich by his inventions. As to the young men, they had long phased beyond the narrow ideas of their forefathers, and there was not one of them who would not gladly have stepped into tiie shoes of a man who was capable of eren trying to invent a gun. TDe Invitation was generally accept ed. the only girl declining being Miss Broadnax, she not having the face to put in an appearance. They were re ceived by Treat in a private room in which he had worked out his gun scheme, and before taking them to view Ills gun he made them a little address, in which he gave a brief account of his struggles as an inventor, assuring them thut had he not been educated as a mechanic he could not have suc ceeded, since a practical knowledge of mechanics was involved In his work. He then led them into a foundry building In which the gun was set up. There he explained to them thut at the breaking out of the European war he had been engaged in Inventing a new cannon and had been endeavoring to Interest the United States government in It. but had failed. Since then he had Induced the war department to furnish the means to construct the gun which they saw before them. He then gave them a demonstration of its workings. Treat's gun lias lately been proved successful and a large order given for its manufacture. It is said Uiat he la engaged to marry Miai MaeKnlght. Among the Monday morning culprits haled before u Baltimore police magis trate wasadarkey with no visible means of support, “Wnat occupation have you here in Baltimore?” asked his honor. "Well, Jedge,” said the darkey, “1 ain’t doin’ much at present—jest cir culation’ round, suh.” His honor turned to the clerk of the court and Bairi: “Please enter the fact that this gentleman has been retired from cir culation for sixty dnys.” “I wonder why Miss Snow is such u 8 ocial favorite," said Mrs. Jeiiks. “She doesn't sing or play, or even re cite.” “Well,” returned Mr. Jonks , "prob ably that’s th" reason.” SOME TENNESSEE FOLKS TELL HOW THEY WON For Men, Women and Children Any kind of Shoes BLACK, WHITE.

Chevrolet-1916 “The Product of Experience" H-4 Baby Grand Touring Car, $750 C, The Chevrolet Motor Company has once more doubled its manu facturing facilities, factory organization and production in the num ber of Chevrolet Cars. These great, increases are the results of mod ern factory methods and the installation of special machinery throughout all Chevrolet plants. C, But the above alone is not responsible for our radical price re duction on 1916 Chevrolet Cars. C, Our price reductions arc also due to the fact that for years we have devoted our lime, energies, and best thoughts to the manu facture of “FOURS.” We believe in “FOURS.” We build “FOURS” —the safe, simple, cheap to operate, thoroughly tried and proven CHEVROLET (Valve-in-the-J load) “FOURS.” We Build Them in the Interest of The Consumer C. The retail dealer must sell on a narrower margin; the distributor must sell on a much narrower margin; and the manufacturer must sell on a very much nar rower margin to enable the consumer to secure an honest car at so near a one hundred per cent, value that he will not suffer a violent shrinkage in the value of his ear when the “announcement period” arrives in the very middle of the natural riding season. - C. The above frank statements give the real reasons for our great reductions in 1 ( M6 prices;—and note, the cars have not been cut a single hair-line in quality. C, Chevrolet Cars are just what thtjir builders have designed them to he—high- class, fine, luxurious. They have no superiors in hill climbing ability, and few, at any price, exceed them in speed performance. Newnan Auto Company Corner}Spring and LaGrange Streets. - - - NEWNAN, GEORGIA.
