THE PROBLEM OF THE
HOUR
THE ATLANTA real estate market has most happily
solved the problem of investment for those who are
not satisfied with the small return of three or four per
cent on other investments considered absolutely safe,
nor with the uncertainty of investments that prom
ise enormous returns without offering sufficient assur
ance of their reliability. With years of steady prog
ress back of her and a future of oven moro rapid
progress, Atlanta offers unquestionable advantages to
any who desire holdings that will yield great returns
both as an income and as to increase in values. This
fact is positively established by the action of those
who have owned property hero for years and who are
rapidly addincr to their possessions by the acquisition
of other valuable property.
The confidence in the growth of this city and sec
tion, both at home and abroad, has been established by
investigations of the conditions here. The fact that
those who have the largest interests are most anxious
to secure additional properties removes at once nny
doubt that might exist as to the sincerity of the claims
made for present prosperity and future development.
In no other section of the South are the natural,
commercial and financial conditions so happily com
bined as to make an investment particularly advan
tageous from the standpoint of financial securitv and
rapid enhancement in value ns in Atlanta and imme
diate vicinity.

WILL ONE WILD AND WOOLLY HEAVE i
DRIVE HUBBARD SQUASH TO DRINK? |
‘ By O. B. KEELER.
The drinks are on Dick Jemlson. Dick admits It himself— freely. ;
It being useless to Introduce the genial sporting editor of The Con- t
atltutlon further than to mention his name, the next thing Is to disclose •
why the drinks are on Dick.
It fell out In this wise:
In the hectic game at Ponce DeLeon Thursday afternoon between the
Champs and the near-Champs, “Hub" Perdue, sometimes known ns
“Squash.” was pitching against Tommy Atkins, Atlanta's clever little
southpaw.
In Atlanta's half of the eighth Inning, when Umps Carpenter had
teased the huge crowd Into a gigantic rage and rioting was In the air.
"Hub” Perdue whipped a fast bull straight at his slab rival, who was
batting. Atkina had no time to dodge. The speedy shoot caught him
squarely on the arm. flooring him. After a fetv minutes, however, he
plucklly continued the game.
Came then the Atlanta players to Dick with a sounding story of a
game between the same teams and the same pitchers In Nashville, last
April, when Atkins unlntentlonffily caromed one of his benders o(7 the
coconnut of Hubbard Squash Perdue. The dented Squash, so stated tha
Crackers, swore dark and bloody vengeance, saying he would "get even"
vylth Atkins ere the season waned, or words to that effect.
All of which Dick absorbed and published the next day, with much
eclat and a peppery roast for the wretched Squash.
Now it develops that Perdue never pitched against Atkins before
Thursday. ^
Wherefi t; Dick manfully acknowledges that, having fallen for the
story, he will now stand for the drinks.
Query: Does "Squash" drink?
Strong Points Are Made in
Protesting Thursday’s Game
1
A very voluminous protest has been
prepared by the Atlanta Baseball asso
ciation, and will bo filed at once with
the Southern league, asking that the
second game, of Thursday's double-
header be declared no game and
thrown out, on the ground that Um
pire Carpenter made a ruling which
was contrary to the known ground
rules of the Atlanta ball park.
In this document President J. IV.
Hetamun ha* made some Interesting
points. For one thing, he shows that
the ball which went thru the boxes (tho
Carpenter says It didn't) was not re
covered and put back In the game. If
this ball hnd not gone out of the
grounds, It should have been 'used
when the game was continued. The
fact that Carpenter at once threw out
another ball seems to Indicate that lu
knew the ball had gone Into the stand.
If Carpenter claims that the ball did
not go Into the boxes. It becomes s
question of fact. But Carpenter did
not go near the boxes to ascertain
whether he wa* right or wrong, tho
the Atlanta players begged that he do
this. His testimony Is not as good,
therefore, as that of many people who
actually saw the ball In the box.
If It Is necessary to the winning of a
pennant, this protest will be pushed to
the limits and with good chance* that *
decision will be . made In Atlantal
favor.
