DRUGGIST FLED lU TROOPS IN TURK TEAR OF BROYLES CAPITAL MUTTNr Thought Recorder Would Send Him to Stockade for Breaking Garbage Ordinance. A, S. Knight, manager of a Peters Street drug store, was convinced Fri day that Recorder Nash Broyles is not such a terror as he had pictured in his mind. Knight had never seen Judge Brovles, but had heard and read so much of him that when Sanitary In spector Simpson cited him to appear in police court on a charge of violat ing the garbage ordinance he was at tacked with a severe case of fright. Although an offense against the gar bage laws draws only a small fine, Knight was tortured with the belief that the Recorder would put him in the stockade for about 30 days. Therefore, instead of appearing in e*urt Tuesday. Knight fled the city with his two children. Dr. A. L. Cur tis, proprietor of the drug store, final ly located the missing manager in Macon and persuaded him to return and surrender. Knight told Judge Broyles Thurs day afternoon he fled because he was ■•afraid.” He was fined $5.75 in the original garbage case and $10.75 for dodging the court. =»s Look Out For the Big Market Basket The good house wives of Atlanta find this feature of Friday’s Georgian a great time-saver —a great money- saver.
