The Atlanta Georgian Read For Profit —GEORGIAN WANT ADS—Use For Results (BUSINESS MAN TO BUILD STREETS A majority of the city council has amended the request, to the general as sembly for authority to reorganize At lanta's street improvement system, ask ing that the charter provisimt requiring the head of the construction department to be an engineer of ten years' experi ence be repealed. The amendments, asked as a result of The Georgian's campaign for better streets, were put through the council in such a hurry a week ago that the resolu tions did not give as full authority for reorganization as the council desired. A majority of the council, however, has signed a request to the legislature asking that the proper changes be made.

A member of the house committee warned ' the young man that he would he fined if 1 he danced the turkey trot again Bui he had an engagement for a turkey trot the next dance and in his gallantry he danced it, resigned to the tine, rather than break , the engagement with the young woman. It was the lust turkey trot at East Lake. MU SMILES IS HIS WITNESSES TESTIFY In a court room so .jammed with a crowd that officers had to fight back outsiders who sought admittance, in an atmosphere so close that men became nauseated and the woman around whom the whole ease centered almost fainted under stress of excitement and was only re stored by an injection of strychnine, the trial of Mrs. Daisy Opie I ’ w ■ 1 charged with shooting Iht husband, Eugene IL (trace, with intent to commit murder, was begun today. A jury was chosen and the first witnesses began the graphic story of the shooting. The scene was the most dramatic, as the ease is lhe most peculiar, s in the annals of the Fulton county courts.
