to-day from Mrs. Dan Harris, pres

That there was no occasion for

Attendants Still Angry.
Miss Dane and Miss Rowan were

maintained they had been in

there had been a real burglar Mon

Miss Dane and Miss Rowan went

Atlanta railroad freight offices to-
I day received notices that the move-
j men* of freight, tied up by the flood,
j Southward from the important ship
ping points along the Ohio River, in-
| eluding Cincinnati, has begun, and
that within a week all trains will be
running on schedule time. At the
offices of the Southern it was stated
that more than 200 cars of freight
consigned to Atlanta proper, held at
Cincinnati and other points by the
flood, will be in the local yards within
a week or ten days. Twenty of them
came in yesterday and to-day.
The movement of freight out of
Cincinnati across the Ohio River ; s
slow, but is being hastened as fast as
repairs can be made. Freight is mov
ing out of Douisville and St. Douis for
Southern points, however, on schedule
time.
Statements similar to thi*i were
made at the offices of other railroads
entering Atlanta. It is estimated that
the flood held back about 800 cars of
freight consigned to business houses
in Atlanta and vicinity.
The wholesale grain dealers* say
there is less grain in the city than
there has been for years, and the
shortage, occasioned by inability to
get shipments across the Ohio River,
has caused an advance in price of
from 6 to 8 cents a bushel.
“In fact,"’ said J. D. Duncan, of the
Duncan Grain Company, Atlanta deal
ers who have grain can get almost
any price they want to ask for it.
W ithin a week or ten days, however,
this condition will be improved and
grain probably will drop.
Wholesale grocery houses say there
has been no advance in the price of
provisions because of the floods.
“We have had little or no difficulty
in getting our shipments.” *-aid E. M.
Hudson, of the McCord-Stewart Com
pany, “and there have been no ad
vances in price other than the norma!
variations.”

CLEANS IN!
BEAUTIFUL—25 CENT
In a few moments your hair looks soft, fluffy lus
trous and abundant—No falling hair or dandruff.
Springtime Brings Young
People From All Parts
of the Country to the
Southern Shorthand' and
Business University.
Business education is the present-
day necessity!
“Can you write shorthand or keep
a set of books?” the applicant for a
position is asked by the business man.
“Where were you taught business?”
is about the second question usually
propounded.
Young man. young woman, think,
and think seriously. Consider well
these two questions.
Young (Coleman came to Atlanta
from the North and walked the
streets for three months looking for
a position, but without success. Sev
eral business men. on whom he called,
advised him to take a cour. c in the
Southern Shorthand and Business
University of this city.
He thought; he acted.
The result;
After a three-months course, the
Southern placed him with a railroad
company as stenographer at $50 per
month to begin. Mr. Coleman was
ambitious, worked to please, and he is
now drawing a fine salary.
If you want a position, you’ll have
to take a business course sooner or
later; then, why not now?
Don’t postpone longer such an im
portant matter.
•If you have a diploma from the
Southern Business University I will
give you a position,” said a prominent
business man to a young fellow ap
plying for a job.
The Southern is an old school
been running 47 years - has a large
faculty; teaches the best known sys
tems of shorthand, bookkeeping, etc*.
Plenty of typewriters on which to
practice seventy-five; think of it !
