ATLANTA’S OLDEST
SAVINGS BANK
Opening Many New Ac
counts.
A large number of new year resolu
tlonz to aave money Mem to have been
made, for the Georgia Savings Rank
and Truat Company have had many
new depositors to open accounts with
them since January 1. There are yet
thousands of people In and around At
lanta that have never accumulated
anything for a “rainy day." Are you
one of them? If so, stop and think u
minute; suppose you lout your position
or had sickness or death In your fam
ily, what would you do without some
ready cash? Amounts deposited on or
before January* 10 will get Interest from
January 1, and 4 per cent per annum
Interest will be paid and compounded
January and July. No bank could be
safer than this old Institution for the
reason that all their loans are secured
by gilt-edge securities consisting of
first-class bonds and stocks and 1m-.
R roved real estate in the city of At-
inta on a basis of not more than 50
per cent of a conservative valuation.
The best evidence of our conservatism
In making loans is that we have yet to
foreclose In a single Instance. We are
not a state depository, and, therefore,
have no preferred creditors.
The officers and directors are well
known to all. They are George M.
Brown, president; Joseph A. McCord,
vice president; Joseph E. Boston, sec
retary and treasurer; D. Woodward,
Arnold Broyles, Elijah A. Brown, Fred
B. Law and John L. Tye.
Open every Saturday afternoon from
4 to 4, in addition to regular morning
hours.
MI88 LAURA LEE GANN.
Of District fourteen, In making a
fine showing in this district, and
will be sure to surprise some of her
friends when the final announce
ment of the winners of the race has
been published.
Mrs. J. C. EDWARDS.
She Is one of the greatest work
ers In the contest and now' the
leader of the entire race, having
more than 100,000 votes to her
credit.
MRS. W.
Of District four, has made an
excellent showing for the short
•time she has been In the race, and
from the large number of votes
and subscriptions which .are being
sent In from time to time for her
she looks like one of the winners.
Fully twenty candidates have come
to see the contest manager to say how
pleased they were with the last special
offer.
.Monday was a day of great activity
and Interest In The Georgian’s contest
department. More than a score of
candidates came In to see the contest
manager to express their approval of
the last special offers and to say that
they were going to put forth their best
efforts during the coming two weeks.
The hundred per cent Increase oi
fered on nil subscriptions for the next
two weeks seems to havo struck the
right chord, nnd already m|ny of the
candidates are out working harder
than ever before.
One of the candidates, who has made
le progress during the past week, Is
.Miss Sarah Brady, of District No. 10.
There are any number of others that
have done remarkably well for the
short time they have been In the con
test, and they are so surprised at the
fine showing that they havo made In
their districts that they are out for
io of the capital prizes.
No doubt a number of 'candidates
did not see the great special offer as
printed In The Georgian Monday, so
in order thnt they may have it thorough
knowledge of what we ure offering this
week we repent the special offer, us
follows:
On all subscriptions which you bring
send to 'Fho Georgian you will re
ceive double the regular number of
votes—twice ns many as you have been
getting heretofore. This offer Is good
for just two weeks, or between the
dates of January B and January 18.
The week following you will receive
50 per cent Increase on aH subscription*
which you bring or send in, and the
last week of the contest there will not
be any special offer of any kind.
These are positively the last
ducements to be made In the contest,
There will not he any offers rtf any
sort made other than those announced
here. _
Remember thut the above offers are
good on both old and new subscrip
tions. nnd on all subscriptions, no mat
ter of what length of time they may
cover. The offers count as well on
subscriptions for one month as for a
year or six months.
Wo want you to rend this over care
fully. so as to understand the offer,
nnd then we want you to get Into the
game with nil the ginger and energy
yAu can muster, for you have but a
few short days In which to get sub
scriptions thnt will count on the double
vote offer. Two weeks Is not a very
long time, nnd those who do not work
now might ns well give up, for this Is
the best and last chance of tho con
test, and those who fall to tnke ad
vantage of tho offer will have lost the
best opportunity of the race to get
votes. The hundred per cent offer Is
only for this and next week. The week
following only 50 per cent Increase will
bo offered, and the Inst week of the
ontest no extra offer will bo made.
Every day for thl " week and m ‘ xt
should he a banner one for tho candi
dates who are earnestly trying for the
splendid prizes. Never before has s
much Interest been aroused In a por
ular voting contest, and this week Is
the opportunity of the race. Aspirant
should certainly get busy while this
offer is In vogue, and while the anvil
hot they should strike their best
blows nnd get eyery single subscrip
tion from those who have promised
•u.
Do not overlook the fact that week
after next only half as many extra
votes will he given on subscriptions,
and those who do not do their best this
nnd next week will not have as good
hance to win ns those who go Into
the work with a vim. The last week
of the contest only 2,400 votes will be
TO RESCUECHILDREK
Eighty White Tots Found
In Homes of Negroes
In Montgomery.
Montgomery, Ala., Jan. 7.—Following
the startling disclosures in the arrest
and conviction of Dr. Caffry, a negro
physician, another shake-up In the
vice crusade has been instituted in this
Ity. Eighty white children have been
discovered living in the homes of ne
groes in this city.
Lieutenant William Dobbs, of the
.Salvation Army, who lias brought the
situation to the attention of the police
department, claims this condition Is
not confined to this city atone, hut ex

eek you would receive 48,000, which

Mrs. J. C. Edwards, of District 30.
still leading the contest, but la
closely followed by several others.
It Is remarkable how* many new
subscriptions have come to The. Geor
gian since the opening of the $15,000
contest. Nearly all of the business
turned In up to this time Is new, for
hleh Tho Georgian tenders Its fin-
thanks to contestants. Desire for
new subscribers was the prime motive
hlch led to the great prize offer.
There Is nn exceptional opportunity,
however, this week for old subscribers
take n hand In electing represen
tatlves for the Cuban trip. In the
first place, 4.800 votes are allowed on
each renewal for one year this week
and next. Every old subscriber Is
. rlvileged to vote in the contest. The
only restriction Is that all who desire
ballots must pay for at least one
month in advance. If a subscriber now
tak**s The Georgian and owes for the
month past, votes niay bo secured by
paying up the arrearage.
Those who intend to help a young
lady along in this race should do so
now, by all meuns, ns just twice the
usual number of bAllots are being is
sued on all subscriptions from one
month up.

Rules which seek a complete trans
formation in the affairs of the Grady
hospital will be presented Tuesday aft
ernoon to the board of trustees, at a
called meeting, for ratification.
At the same time the trustees
endeavor to settle the mooted question
of bedside teaching which has so strenu
ously agitated the members of the
medical board of late and which has
resulted In the formation of two re
ports by this body.
From expressions heard Tuesday, It
is believed the majority report will be
adopted. This report favors the open
ing of the charity wards for bedside
teaching for the benefit of medical stu
dents und provides certain regulations.
A lively light Is anticipated when the
mntter Is brought up.
The other rules for the general gov
eminent of the hospital were formulat
ed some time ago by the medical board,
and will produce many changes In the
hospital. In an effort to prevent further
friction.
Mustn't Talk to Nurses.
One of the most Important of these
rules deals with the nurses nnd the
house staff. Under this rule, It Is un
derstood, a ban will be placed on social
chat between the doctors and nurses.
Hereafter they will he permitted to
converse only on matters of business
pertaining to their duties In the hos
pital.
Although the officials are reticent re
garding this rule. It is understood that
removal from the service of the hos
pital is prescribed as the penulty for
violation of the rule.
