THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. MONDAY. AUGUST 12. 1912.
cuchered itself out of a fine and large
time at t'oehran. where a sumptuous
spread had been a’ranged in its honor,
and—well, all in all. the house was in
no mood to behave itself or make itself
particularly pleasant to anybody or
anything coming its way.
But Mr. Vinson made it stick steadily
to its Job of legislating, and he insist* d
that it hustle things along while the
going was good The presiding officer
permitted no one to get out wit'poutthe
house’s permission, and he stated plain
ly to the doorkeepers that it was up to
them to see that his orders were
obeyed, <>: they might lose theli job-.
Vinson is an expert parliamentarian,
and Is quick in handing down rulings
and opinions. Enough of the house
was with him Saturday to make such
things as he said go. and. notwith
standing the small attendance and the
evident reluctance of the house to work
of its own accord, a record Saturday’s
tvork was put over under Vinson's
handling of the gavel.
Joseph E. Pottle, of Milledgeville,
known of everybody, is an Atlanta
visitor!
Mt Pottle is deeply interested in the
race his brother is making to succeed
himself on the < ourt of appeals bench,
and was much pleased today to leant
'mu the bat of Greensboro had unani
mous ■■ indorsed Judge Robert Pottle
for that high and honorable position.
'1 o Mr Goyver. of Crisp, yvill be gAen
credit for putting through successfully
perhaps the cerv finest and most com
mendable piece of legislation that will
be set down eventually to the credit of
Ihe present legislature.
The gene-’l Ins. trance act rtcen.ly
passed is gcnuinel" statesmanlike
work.
Il brings older out of chaos where
order most urgently was needed. It
puls on the statute books of Georgia
laws under which the business of life
insurance mev be conducted, and must
be condtuled, along absolutely clear,
safe and spet Ifie lines. It in.poses unon
insurance men good, bad and indiffer
ent —and Georgia has had her share of
«'!l three kinds of late years—the ob
ligation • f common honesty and de
cency in conducting their business.
Under its operation the sharks and
< tooks In the bttsi less can not live in
Georgia—that’s all.
Mr. Goyver, one of the younger mem
bets of the present house, was chair
man of the special committee of the
legislature under the direction of which
this law yvas drawn. As such chair
man. the work of getting the bill
through the -house fell almost entirely
on him. l+e acquitted himself with
great credit. No better tvork has been
done In Georgia in many years- and
no better work tvill be done soon.
Joe Hill Hall speaks all of the
time. Hooper Alexandet speaks
some of the time, and Jack Slaton
speaks none of the time. Voters
van not complain that there Is no
choice between the candidates,
anyway.
"Old Man” Callaway, of Tattnall, en
joys Ihe unique distinction of being
the one tnan in the legislature to hold
a corner on that affectionate appella
tion.
There are a number of "Uncles" in
the house, but there is but one "Old
Man." and he is Callayvay.
Mr Callaway is an experienced leg
islator and is sent to the house from
Tattnall whenever he yvants to come,
without protest. He is a quiet and un
demonstrative member, rarely making
a speech —anti if he docs, it is so short
that one has to hurry in order to get
there before It Is all over.
Like many modest men. Callaway is
invariably on the Job when wanted.
He never misses a vote and never ex
plains one. He Is rated safe and sane
on all questions anti Is one of the
house’s most dependable men.

MA<’f)N, GA.. Aug 12.—The greatest

more than $4,000,000 a year.
A final conference of the commit
tees from the workmen was held here
Satuiday afternoon, with the result
that the blank ballots were ordered dis
tributed among the employees through
out the South. The Macon employees
are openly stating that they are voting
for a strike unless their demands are
granted. If a strike Is called, railroad
men do not hesitate to say the entire
South’s traffic will be tied up to a great
extent, and passenger transportation
will be seriously handicapped, for a
while at least. Some 8.000 railroad em
ployees are affected.
W. M. Hamilton and H A. Fox. of
Macon, are chairmen of Hfe two com
mittees from the Brotherhood of Rail

Without perfect teeth one can not

diseases can be. traced to decayed or
faulty teeth. The food can not be
properly masticated, germs develop and
are carried directly into the system

Do not take chances. Have your teeth
put in perfect repair. You’ll look bet

BENJ. FRANKLIN WAS
• THE INVENTOR OF
THE BIFOCAL LENSES
Years ago the idea of a two-vision or
bifocal lens yvas conceived by Benia
> min l-Tanklin. Tyvo-pair of glasses was
1 very annoying to him. and in his own
, words he wrote to Dr. Whately: "Find
s this change troublesome and'not al-
• ways sufficiently ready; 1 had the glass
i cut ami half of each lens associated
■ in the same circle. By this means, as
i I wear my spectacles constantly. I have
t only to move my eyes up or doyvn t,o see
. far oi bear." This was indicative of
the genius of Franklin, which yvas aft-’
. erward known as the split bifocal.
. tears later the cement bifocal was in
ttodueed; it is made by cementing tyvo
. lenses together, and is still in common
I use. Then cam.' tile idea of using two
pice s ot glass of different indiee and
fusing them together, making a one
i piece lens of tyvo focal poyvers. yvhich
is known as the Kryptok Invisible Bi
focal.
But in all Hies, there has alwavs
I been a lost vision, for the Intermediate
Sight has been forgotten. The Hines
optical Company, at 91 Peachtre<
street has lecentlv brought out a
fused Invisible T.i-Focal lens that is
considered from a scientific and me
hanieul Standpoint to be one of the
greatest m hievgTnents in the optical in
dustry. This lens is made in one solid
piece, witlt three distinct focal potters,
which blend so beautifully into one an
other that it is almost impossible HUell
that a lens of any Inscription is in front I
