“ Behold, I have set before thee a
door opened.”
To the Church in Laodicea came the message of God:
“I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would that
thou wert cold or hot.
“So because thou art lukewarm and neither hot nor cold. I will spew
thee out of my mouth.”
Not a picture of the Churches in our midst.
But an accurate description of more than one man.
Are you one of these?
The man in public office, who keeps his oath, enforces the law, and
does his duty regardless of consequences to himself, is not one of these.
Let not him, who is, look to the Churches in our Midst for comfort.
Wednesday, there was no fight at the polls in Atlanta between “de
cency and indecency.”
A scuffle for the office of mayor between two men can not be so de
scribed, when he who claims to stand on the platform of “decency” does
not publicly state that, if elected mayor, he will, as required by law, en
courage and aid Atlanta’s Chief of Police in enforcing the law against the
very evil, which caused a part, if not all of the unsavory stories about his
opponent, whom he calls “indecent.”
For there is war in the city between decency and indecency.
And clamoring about the past misdeeds of a man or men will not hide
or drown the question-“IS ATLANTA TO ENTHRONE LAW OR
LAWLESSNESS?”
Sin and mistakes can and should be forgiven, where there is honest
repentance.
But there should and would be no forgiveness for the folly of elect
ing to office a man. who, either for fear or for a sinister motive, refuses
deliberately to publicly pledge himself to enforce the ordinances of the
City of Atlanta and support in office men who regard their oaths as sacred
and obey the law as they find it written.
Let no man deceive you or cloud the issue.
Atlanta should and will sustain a man who fears only to do wrong.

SUIT AGAINST COUNTY
FOR $50,000 BACK PAY
MACON, GA., Oct. 3.—Tax Receiver
R. J. Anderson, of Bibb county, will
probably institute suit against the
county commissioners in a few days
for unpaid back salary amounting to
more than $50,000. He has already made
a request of the board, and it is now
under consideration, but very likely will
be denied.
It has been discovered that in 1885
tile legislature passed an amendment to
the code allowing the Bibb county tax
receiver the same salary as the tax col
li tor, who averages about $6,000 per
year. However, the tax receiver has
been paid in accordance with the gen
eral state provision, which specifies
that he shall recieve only one-half as
much as the tax collector. As Mr. An
derson has held office continuously
since 1885, he feels that he is entitled
to the salary allowed him by law.

Danderine is to the hair what fresh

New and Beautiful Undermuslins
Primarily these undermuslins that have just
been unpacked are the neatly, carefully made, at
tractively trimmed garments that women want!
But they are not specially priced; that is, as
we know special price. However, when you look
at them, seeing the beauty of the laces and the
embroideries, and feeling the softness of the ma
terial, and then note the prices, you will wonder
that we did not announce a great sale of under
muslins.
Value warrants it, but truthful advertising
forbids it.
It is not a sale as we know sales, it’s giving to
our public what it deserves—highest value in a
straightforward way. However, we do conscien
tiously advise that you fill your needs at once. We
are not certain that these prices will always bring
such beautiful undermuslins.
Corset Covers at 25c— -The elements that make these
highest values are dainty laces and embroideries, charmingly
worked into a very soft grade of nainsook. They are unlike
any 25c corset covers we have ever seen.
Corset Covers at 39c— Rather elaborately trimmed
with dainty linen and Valenciennes laces and sheer Swiss em
broideries, ribbon-run headings. Compare them, please, with
the usual 50c garment.
Drawers at 50c— Of nainsook and cambric, straight
legs finished with dainty tucks, embroidery and lace edges.
Others at 75c and SI.OO are of an exceptionally fine grade of
nainsook and have their flat flounces elaborately trimmed
with laces and embroideries. At SI.OO, $1.50, $2.00 and $2.25
are knickerbockers with wide embroidery and lace headings
run with ribbons.
Gowns at 95c— That are worth more. High necks, long
sleeves and \ neck and long sleeves, very lacy and very dain
ty with tiny tucks, and you will notice that they are not
skimped, but full wide and full long.
Combination Suits at SI.OO, $1.50, $2.00 and $2.25,
consisting of corset cover and drawers and trimmed in new
and attractive ways. As the price advances the materials be
come softer and the trimmings more elaborate. Circular fitted
drawers, with dainty ribbon-run headings at the belt and em
broidery medallions combined with fine linen and Valenciennes
laces at the yoke.
Outing Gowns at 50c, 75c, SI.OO to s2.oo—Supe
rior garments every one: they are different from the usual
outing gowns that have nothing to commend them but their
warmth. They are in daintily and fast-colored stripes, some
with collars, cuffs trimmed with bands and cords, some with
the straight military collars, others in the pajama cut that
buttons across the front.
