before the board of county commission
ers Wednesday and requested the ap

new hospital, or at least an addition to
Grady liotpttal. Dr. l.onglno said:
"It la Simply libpovslble for the hos

patients. A fav/' daift Vf> I visited live

for a patient who was able to pay and
nsltlicr one of the hospitals could take

W. O. Foote also appeared before the

quest and Ktatsd that the home now
occupied by the old ladles on Mitchell

HPrausc of-'the earnest entrea

the.proprietor of the Waldorf-As
toria, will cause work to be re
sumed In the spring on the superb
chateuu which. In a partially un
finished condition, now surmounts
the brow of the rldgo on Hearst
Island In the Thousand Islands
group.
For years past this vast stone
pile hue stood unfinished and un-
tenunt’ed, dark and gloomy. Holdt’s
wife’s death broke his heart, and,
as that was to be her home, he
stopped work and decided never to
finish It. Upper picture on the

Discussion of plays In the Georgia-
Tech football game last Saturday, cou
pled with u smooth tile floor In the lob
by of the Piedmont Hotel, proved dis
astrous for <\ H. Kersey, a well-known
New York drummer.
As a result of this combination he 1*
now walking about the hotel with Ills
arm In a sling, after n surgeon had put
together some broken bones.
E-Jndny morning Mr. Kersey and
svtne of his friends were discussing the
game the day before and some were
telling what should have been done and
what should not have been done. Mr.
Kersey Is an enthusiastic football fnn
and he differed with some of his
friends, lie told them a certain punt
made by one of the men was not made
correctly. He said It was a punk punt.
So lie doubled up a piece of paper
and Illustrated how Ids idea of a punt
would look. He put the paper wail on
the floor and gently kicked It as an
Blast rat Ion.
But he didn’t think that kicking from
• a sodded field was letter and safer than
from..the tiled, floor «f the Piedmont.
The next Instant he was In a heap on
he.iloor. Ills arm hurt afterward and,
he next day it hurt still more, but he
didn’t think anything was seriously
w rong. Then he culled in a doctor and
the medico saw at a glance that the
arm was broken.
Now Mr. Kersey Is thinking unkind
things about football and football play
SMART CONDUCTOR
HAD TO BACK UP
It happened on a Central train, close
to Griffin. Traveling man sat next to
the window and a big suit case sat
beside him. Along came Mr. Conduc
tor. J
“Take that grip off the seat,” he
said. The passenger paid no atten
tion. .
“Take that grip off the seat," In
sisted Mr. Conductor. Still no atten
tion.
Mr. Conductor picked up the grip and
slammed It down In the aisle. After
he passed on some devilish fellows
ucross the aisle picked It up and put It
back In the seat.
Along then catne the conductor again.
He put the grip In the aisle. The
Jokers put It back ugain. This hap
pened three time*. Then the conductor
got mad. real mad. He picked up the
offending suit cose and hurled It
through the open window Into the ditch.
“Now. I guess you’ll keep that grip
off that seat, as I told you,” he re
marked to the traveling man.
The latter aroused himself for the
first time and looked languidly at the
conductor.
“It wasn't my grip,*' he said. "I
found It In the seat.’*
"Clang!” went the bell, and the train
bucked toward Griffin. When the bad
ly smashed grip was picked up half a
mile back the conductor, very repent
ant. found the real owner in the smok
ing car and settled for the damage
done. But lie nearly broke the bell
cord with the yank be gave It when he
started again. And that's one reason
why the Central was late that day.

With the cloee of his term as com

to the etate of nearly forty years, and
for which he has never received a dol

particularly where the Intereste of the
veterans were at stake, he has been
prominent ever since the days of the

He entered the army as a private at
the outbreak of the war and after a
brief eervlce was promoted to corporal,
then eergeant, then captain, being on
the staff of General Clayton, of Ala

which reduced fares of J cent per mil*
