Real Estate For Sale. Real Estate For Sale
A BIG CORNER LOT
The secret of a successful real estate venttire is to obtain a large
amount of fronttig ■•. Then, when your land increases in value so much
per front foot it amounts to something.
We are offering the corner of Washington and Fair stre, is, 192 1 -2x227,
for $30,000. This figures up about $155 a front foot. An increase in value
of $50.00 a foot would amount to nearly SIO,OOO profit—a substantial sum
of money.
Is such an increase to be expected? Trinity church paid $3lO a foot
for the corner of Washington and Trinity.
The property we offer is unencumbered, and we can make easy terms.
It is one of those rur< opportunities that occasionally confront a buyer.

STATE OF GEORGIA—County of Fulton.
To the Superior Court of Said County:
The petition of American Sumatra To

1. That it was duly incorporated by
order of this couft on the 12th day of
February, 1910, and thereafter duly or
ganized in accordajtce with the provisions
of the laws of this state, and lias since
been in the active conduct of its business
in accordance with the provisions of its
charter.
2. That it desires to amend Its charter
by Incorporating therein tho following
provision: That whenever an election of
one or more directors of the company is
held by th<a shareholders at any lawful
meeting thereof, the shareholders shall be
entitled to cumulate their votes in th«
following manner: Each shareholder shall
be entitled to a number of votes equal
to the number of directors to be elected,
multiplied by the number of shares of
stock which he holds, and shall be per
mitted to distribute such votes as he
pleases among the candidates, or to cast
them all for one candidate if he so
chooses, and those persons shall be de
clared elected directors who shall re
ceive the highest number of votes so cast;
provided, that nothing herein shall be
construed to alter or change that provision
of the oiiginal charter of the company
which entitles the holders of the pre
ferred stock to elect a majority of the
board of directors in case of default in
the payment of dividends on the pre
ferred stock to the amount of fourteen
<l4> per cent, and to continue to so elect
u majority of said board from the time
such right becomes operative until, but
only until, such time as all accrued and
unpaid dividends on the preferred stock
shall have been paid up, as particularly
set forth In the original charter of the
corporation; and provided further that
it shall be within the right and power
of the shareholders to provide by by-laws
that the preferred and common stock
may be required to vote separately, and
until default shall be made in the payment
of dividends on the preferred stock to
the amount of fourteen <l4) per cent,

and by-law to limit the right of each
class of stocks as to the number of

until the default is removed as aforesaid;
and to provide by by-law how the by

tions may be altered, amended or
changed. The cumulative voting herein

directors, either before or after the oc
currence of a default as above set out,
as the holders of the preferred and com
mon stock may at the time be entitled
to vote for under the provisions of the
original charter and of such by-laws on
this subject as the shareholders may
have heretofore adopted or may here
after adopt.
3. That It Is provided in the original
charter of the corporation that this char
ter may be amended by and with the
consent of lite holders of not less than
two-thirds in amount of all the capital
stock then outstanding, expressed at a
meeting of the shareholders held in ac
cordance with the provisions of the by

tion was duly and unanimously adopted

ment to its charter to be made.
Wherefore, Your petitioner pravs that
when it has complied with the law for

orable court will pass an order amend
ing its charter in the manner and to the
extent as hereinbefore set out.

Papers from 'My Ol Town Always in Demand
HOME NEWS THE BEST
The traveling man hurrying to the
station stopped at the corner and put
down his grips.
"Wait a minute,” he said to his com
panion. "I want to get a paper from
home. Got the 'Frisco Examiner’.''
Sam Wasserman, who provides the
news from home for thousands of wan
derers afield, passed out the paper
from his news wagon uptown and took
tlie nickel. Just behind the traveling
man came a swarthy organ grinder,
who let his monkey climb over the
news wagon while he negotiated in
broken English for the latest issue of
L’Arado Italiano. Behind him cante a
decrepit workman who dug a nieke'
from a dirty tobacco sack and held it
out in silence. Sam passed over The
Weekly Freeman, from Dublin, for the
old man was a regular customer and
always wanted that paper and nothing
else.
All Want News From Home.
“They all want the news from home,”
said Sam. "The Atlanta papers are ail
right on the big news, but, of course,
they can't carry ail the little stuff about
home folks that a man finds in the pa
per from his own home town. There
was a guy used to come by here every
month or two and get a little paper
from lowa, and he wrote me a piece of
poetry. 1 stuck it up on the wagon, and
lots of folks read it:
"When I’m on the road and tired, and
there’s nothing in the mail;
And trains are late and business dull,
and it’s hard to make a sale,
The thing that rests my weary brain
' and drives away iny frown
Is the gossip in the paper from my
own home town.
Don’t talk to me of China, or the trou
bles of the czar;
I'm tired of the gunmen and the Bul
gar-Turkish war;
I want to see who's married, who’s
dead, who’s up or down;
In the place I'd love to be right now, my
own home town.
Yes, the sheet may be a punk one, and
the headlines rather tame.
But it’s got thp news of folks I know,
and calls them all by name;
It tells of Jones’ brand-new house, and
the twins of Mamie Brown—
Oh. there’s real news in the paper from
my old home town.
He Sells Them All.
“Sure, we sell papers all the way from
Mexico City up to Tacoma, from way
up in Maine down to Key West. ‘Every

Sunday and buy their home papers for
the whole week back. I save them for
those fellows. Sometimes a man gets
a paper from home when he’s been
away a long time, sees a headline on
the front about somebody he knews, and
stands there reading until the cop asks
him to move on and quit blocking traf
fic.
“Queerest thing I ever saw hap
pened last month. Man comes up and
buys a Los Angeles Herald. He runs
his eye down the paper while I'm mak
ing change for a dollar bill and all of a
sudden he lets out a groan and turns
all white. He kind of steadies himself
against the wagon.
“‘What's the matter, friend’’’ I asks
him. He points to a little headline in
.the paper.
“’My baby’s dead,’ he says, kind of
choking’ up. ‘l’ve been off my route a
week and the telegrams must have gone
wrong.’
Big Business in Foreign Papers.
“No, we can’t handle the little county
papers, of course. It would take a
wagon as long as from here to the city
hall. But most folks are satisfied with
the papers from the nearest big city in
their state. Sundaj - is the big day, of
course. 1 sell 275 New York Ameri
cans every Sunday, and they’re on all
the news stands, too, which cuts into
my business some. It doesn’t seem to
matter how old a paper from home is,
if a man wants to buy. They’ll take
anything tl\ey haven't seen since they
left. But sometimes a fellow comes by
here and wants*this morning’s St. Louis
sheet. When I ask him if he thinks
they send papers by airship, he looks
foolish and buys yesterday’s.
“There’s a big business in foreign pa
pers in Atlanta, considering what a
small foreign population we’ve got. 1
sell fifty Greek papers. The Atlantis,
every day. I handle five Italian pa
pers, but they’re all published in New
York. There are four Jewish sheets or
my wagon and they all sell. They're
printed in Yiddish, you know. There's
two Swedish papers, and they sell, too.
One of them is the Nordstjernan, which
means ‘North Star,’ and the other is
the Swenski Amerkanski Posten. I
don’t try to say that one. There’s a
good demand for the English weeklies
and Lloyd’s News, and I sell two Irish,
two German and five negro papers.
“Foreign languages? Yes, I speak
four—English, German, Spanish and
profane. Here comes an old fellow foi
La Domenico del Carriere. That’s a
Dago paper, and he buys it every day.'

The five young men were motoring out

help. They jumped from their car,
formed a bucket brigade between house

a good deed well done.

ture bears out our statement that he’s a
handsome, manly little fellow. And his
ownership of a Georgian Marathon Racer
proves that he uses good judgment in the
selection of his fun-making possessions.
Thomas wanted a Marathon Racer. Old
er members of his family would have been
glad to buy one for him, but they are not
for sale. For The Georgian controls the fac
tory’s output for this section. And we
want to give them away—not sell them. So
he investigated our plan for free distri
bution of these little ears to live boys and
girls, found it mighty easy, and now ex
periences the joy that comes to all red
blooded people in the ownership of a
prized possession that has been EARNED.
Hundreds of other boys and girls are
duplicating his experience. But the field
is not crowded. There’s room for other
hundreds.
