Requests Better Police Protection
on County Roads to Stop
Reckless Driving,
The Grand Jury for the March te^in,
in its report to Judge John T. Pen
dleton. of the Superior Court to-day.
urged better police protection on the
county roads, with a view to stop
ping reckless driving of automobiles.
The jury says:
“We recommon 1 better police pro
tection on the. Plasters Bridge (or
Piedmont Avenue) Road from the
city limits to the bridge, and on the
Peachtree, Roswell and Plasters
Bridge Roads near the R. L. Hope
School. Automobiles and motorcycles
pass up and down these roads with
absolute recklessness, endangering the
lives and limbs of the children. One
death recently has occurred near
Buck head.’’
The Jury also indorsed the action
of the General Assembly in abolish
ing the fee system in Fulton County,
and recommended the abolition of jus
tice courts in Atlanta and the estab
lishment of a central court with a
sufficient number of justices and bai
Iiffs at regular salaries.
Visited County Institutions.
The jury visited and inspected
almost every public instiution under
the control of the cotjnty and made
an extensive inspection of the roads.
Enforcement of the law requiring
doctors to report infectious diseases
and placard house® was urged. The
jury said there had been several cases
of meningitis in communities where
neighbors swarmed around the sick
person before and after death, with
never a word of warning from the
physician that the disease was con
tagious.
The jury declared there could be no
doubt about more or les.® fraud in the
pension rolls and recommended that
the General Assembly appoint a com
missioner to revise the rolls and con
duct an investigation by an examina
tion of witnesses to determine wheth
er pensions were being paid to parties
not entitled to them.
Raps Detention Home.
The report of the jury on the Hape-
ville Reformatory was* a compliment
ary one in every particular, but at the
juvenile detention home, "the build
ings and accommodations are entirely
inadequate," according to the findings,
"being too small and in need o? re
pair. 'Conditions are not sanitary."
The County Commission was asked to
provide more roomy quarters and
make arrangements to separate the
Stricter regulation of junk dealers
and pawnshops by .strengthening the
city and State laws was recommended
The jury asked that junk dealers re
port to the police every day and have
the written consent of a minor’s par
ents before buying anything from one.
Also that they be required to keep
everything ten days before disposing
of it.
Asks Padded Cells at Jail.
A further recommendation, at the
suggestion of Chief of Police Beavers,
that a call system he installed be
tween the pawnshop and office of the
detectives was favorably reported.
This would enable the police to have
a man at the pawnshop almost imme
diately after an effort had been made
to pawn what the broker might think
was stolen property.
The jury recommended only one
change at the jail—that padded cells
be installed at once for the incarcera
tion of insane persons. Otherwise the
report on conditions there was com
plimentary.

There must be genuine merit to
an article that haa stood the test of
two generations of users.
In the field of medicine none has'
ha£ greater success, nor retained
that success to a greater degree,
than Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin,
which is now being used by two
generations of people. Its uee in
families is constantly becoming
more general. The reason, primari
ly, is that it has merit. It is what it
represents itself to he. a laxative-
tonic; it does not make exagger
ated claims nor use coarse language
to set forth Its* virtues.
It is a medicine, hut so mild and
gentle a medicine that thousands of
mothers give it to tiny infants, and
yet, in a slightly larger dose, 4‘ is
equally effective for grown-ups. It
is for any disorder of the stomach,
liver or bowels, for constipation, no
matter how chronic; for dyspepsia,
no matter how severe; for bilious
ness, sour stomach, gas on the
stomach, headaches, drowsiness aft
er eating, and similar complaints
arising from a clogged-up condition
of the bowels. It is pleasant to the
taste and does not gripe. It can be
used with safety and good results by
anyone at any age or in any condi
tion of health, and that person’s
health will improve Every drug
gist sells it and the price is only
fifty cents and one dollar a bottle.
