CITY MN »E
FILTH PROBLEM
Dr. Gilbert Says Incinerator
Will Do the Work, and Quick
Action Will Be Necessary.
“If the garbage proniem is not solved
now. it will he solely council's fault,”
says Dr. W. L. Gilbert, president of the
board of health. “The, board has unan
imously recommended a plan, tn abolish
all dump piles—the most modern sys
tem of garbage disposal known. It is
practical for council to adopt it at
once.”
The plan referred to, the bid of the
Destructor Company of New York, to
build an incinerator which will utilize
its own heat to generate electricity, was
recommended to the board of health by
Dr. Rudolph Hering, the expert engi
neer employed by the city. It will cost
s44'i, non, but not only provides for
burning the garbage, but for pumping
all the city’s water from the river to
the Hemphill reservoir. It will be rec
ommended to council today and prob
ably adopted.
“The sanitary conditions of Atlanta
have been very unsatisfactory for the
past five years," says Dr. Gilbert. “The
eighteen dump piles have been terrible
nuisances to many communities and
they have been breeding places for mil
lions- of flies, mosquitoes and rats to
disturb the whole, city.
“Ghastly infections have overrun en
tire citjes from the sole, cause of flies
transmitting disease germs. The one
great remedy for this constant danger
is to burn the garbage and destroy their
breeding places. The members of the
board of health have been struggling
with this condition for five years and
the members are most anxious that
council approve, this action at once.

A Sale of Suits in the
Juvenile Department
(THIRD FLOOR)
5Q.75 FOR MISSES’ SUITS THAT WERE
M $15.00 and $18.50. The sizes are 15 and
17 years, which means that not only misses,
but small women may share the saving. And we claim
that at sls and $18.50 these suits represented more
value than any suits that Atlanta has seen at the
same orices.
You will better believe this when you study the
materials, the smart styles and the excellent tailoring.
Plain serges, navy and brown shepherd checks and a
scattering of striped serges. Most of the coats are in
the smart box effect that the young Misses usually
prefer.
$| /ySO FOR MISSES’ SUITS THAT WERE
I $18.75, sizes 15 to 17 years. Themate
rials are navy serge and shepherd checks.
Any doubt about their style, their real worth and at
tractiveness will be dispelled by your firstglance. They
have in their cutaway coats, their neat trimmings of
buttons, folds, and silks about the collar and cuffs, all
the little marks of distinction that a young lady seeks
in a suit, but so seldom finds under $25.00.
Norfolk Jackets in Serge and Linen Crash
In sizes from 2 to 14 years.,
Those of serge are in red with green collar and
cuffs, and in cream, and priced $5.00 and $7.50.
Those of linen crash are in natural shade and
priced $4.50 to $4.75, according to size.
The demand for Norfolk Jackets throughout the
country is amounting to a craze. Small wonder; these
combine more service and good-looks than any coat
that the same money could possibly buy.
They are newly arrived and right now all sizes
are here.
Children’s White Dresses 59c and 75c
It is no exaggeration to tell you that their values
are 75c and SI.OO, although they were marked the
moment they were unpacked 59c and 75c.
They represent a smart purchase on our part.
The sizes are 2 to 6 years.
All are white lawns, fashioned with the long
waist and pleated skirts. The yokes show fine tucks
or harrow embroidery bands. Some have Dutch
necks, others low round necks.
At these prices we believe mothers will buy
them by the half-dozens.
Children’s Bloomer Dresses 89c to $2.00
Sizes 4 to 12 years.
The price rises gradually from 89c to $2.00 ac
cording to the percale or gingham used, the em
broidery trimmings and the style.
They are sensible and saving dresses. The
bloomers, under the pleated skirt and of the same
material, do away with white underskirts. And as
the summer season playtime draws nearer, the econ
omy of bloomer dresses becomes more apparent.
The ginghams and percales are in neat checks,
stripes and plaids in blue, grey, pink and tan.
