Whenever a fire alarm is sounded doz
ens of automobiles usually fall in behind

Chief Gilbert says this practice is both
annoying and dangerous—annoying to

the drivers of the automobiles, who race
recklessly with each other to bo first on

DEFENDANTS IN CRIMINAL CASES
CONVICTED AND SENTENCED.
Criminal cases in which convictions

Truman Jackson; burglary; plea ol'
guilty; $250 or twolve months.
Hondo Green; burglary; verdict of

Jim Jones; burglary; vordict of

In our judgment tlioro wns u nils
carriage of jimtieo in nt loiiBt ilvu of tlie
cases reported above. Take the ense of
,T. L. Miller. Ho wns guilty of throe
e.utomobilo thefts, nnd more than that
number of 1'orgerioH, yet escaped with n
lino of $500. Ton yonra’ ponnl servi

to inculcate proper roepoct for tho lnw
whon such light sentences are imposnl
for criminal offonsos of tho character and
gravity described? Each of these male-
facjjoi'B should have boon given a straight
torin of ten yonrs on tho chningnng. Tho
Act of 1917 allowing juries to prescribe
indeterminate sentences in criminal

month—nt which each morchnnt partic

hns Ills own items—no other merchant
duplicates his items—nnd by thus co
operating n splendid list of genuine
monoy-snvlng purchases are made avail
able on sides dnys to the peopta of tlie
territory adjacent to tlie town. This
snlos day, cnlled the ‘‘Golden Rule
Sale,” is intensely advertised, qfforts
being concentrated to make tho com
bined bargains attractive onongli to In-
duco n lnrgo gathering of pooplo upon
tlioeo occasions. The advertising matter
must be accurate, stating’ exactly what
tlie article is, its value at regular price,
the number or nmotmt available for the
day, nnd tho prioo nt which it Is offered.
The third part of the plan is that of
milking visits by the business men of
tlie town to various rural communities,
mooting the rosidonts of oach neighbor
hood in n purely social and personal way,
nnd becoming bettor ncquintod with tho
poople generally. Mr. Lowe stntod that
tho last meeting of tills sort, which he
attended, which wns nt a point about
17 miles from Neosho, over 700 pooplo
ere present. At the present time tho
business men of Neosho have those meet
ings scheduled over it year ahead.
At the conclusion of Mr. Lowe's ad
dress tho chairman called on a number
gentlemen present for an expression
of thoir opinion of tho plan outlined.
Among those who responded wore
Messrs, R. D. Cole, H. ( !. A mull, jr., T,

NEWNAN BUSINESS MEN ADOPT
THE NEOSHO PLAN AT EN
THUSIASTIC MEETING.
At a meeting bold Monday night at
tlie Chamber of Commerce, attended by
about sixty representative business men
of Nownnn, the NoobIio plan of commu
nity advertising wns enthusiastically
adopted, after hearing the plan explain
cd by Mr. G. It. Lowe, of Neosho, Mo.
Through the Interest nnd efforts of tlie
Central of Georgia railway Mr. Lowe
was brought to Newnan to meet our bus
iness men, explain tlie Noosho plan, and
tell some of the splendid results it had
brought to the ono hundred and fifty
odd live communities now using it. Tho
audience gave Mr. Lowe tho strictest
attention, and at the conclusion of ids
address lie was asked many questions
regarding tlie practical workings of the
plan.
The meeting, originally scheduled to
have been a dinnor under tho auspices
of the Friday Lunch Club, was changed
into nn open meeting because no ad
equate arrangements could be made to
serve the supper, Despite the heat tho
crowd tlmt gathered to hour Mr. Lowe
fvas stated to have been the largest yot
assembled to meet the speaker since tho
beginning of his tour through this sec
tion.
The chairman, Mr. O. W. Passnvnnt,
called tho meeting to order and intro
duced first Mr. J. D. McCartney, As
sistant General Passenger Agent of the
Central of Georgia railway, who out
lined in a few words the reasons which
impelled the railway oxer,stives to inves
tigate and adopt tliis method of bring
ing the Neosho plan to the towns located
on their lines. Mr. McCartney then in
troduced tlie speaker of ttic evening.
For over an hour Mr. Lowe hold the
attention of tho audience while lie gavo
in detail the facts about the origin nnd
growth of tho plan, not only in the town
of Neosho, of which he is n residnet, but
also told of successfully introducing tho
plan into more than one hundred and
seventy towns in twenty-two different
StntaB. Just recently he has concluded
a tour of twenty weeks over the lines of
tho New York Central railroad, and a
tour of considerable length over the Erie
railroad.
While a most convincing speaker, Mr.
Lowe is moreover a rapid-fire talker, and
it would not be possible for The Herald
to give in detail all tlie good points
brought out in his talk. However, the
main points of the Neosho plan, ns ex
plained by tho speaker, consisted of
three co-ordinated movements by the
merchants of a town, namely—
First, an auction salo, to be conducted
for tho benefit of farmers principally,
at which' they could sell any used house
hold goods, farming , implements, live
stock, etc. The auctioneer is paid by tho
seller of the goods or stock, a fee of 2
per cent, on sales made being the only
charge. The farmers and pthers patron
izing the unction can receive free public
ity, if they so desire.
The second part of the plan, ns ox
plained by Mrt Lowe, consie's of n
town-wide co-operative sales day—prof-
