The Chattanooga News Tells Why
This City Is Going Ahead
So Rapidly,
Thp *r
'h.tttan :i
tins
Nr
wno consult
tion of the South will, no doubt,
compaie Chattanooga with At
lanta. Chattanooga's growth has
been splendidly -at in factory dur
ing the past two years, but If it
can be increased in any way, it
behooves the citizens of Chatta-
nooga to take the steps necessa
ry to make our community the
favorite with desirable new citi
zens. So it is well for us to
analyze conditions frankly
Suppose, for example, some de
sirable family, reared in a t’hiis-
tia.n community, contemplated re
moval to a (Yntial Southern City.
What special inducements could
Chattanooga gi\e over Atlanta'.’
We might cite a good many. In
fiit. in only two respects do we
think that city, more than Chat
tanooga. would make a special
appeal to a family of the above
description.
it is propei to speak of these
The first is. that Atlanta has
solved the problem of law en.
forcement under prohibition bet
ter than any other Southern city.
Very little strong drink is sold in
Atlanta. The law is evaded to a
greater extent as to lighter
drinks, but the number of saloons
is limited and by reason of the
prohibition of the sale of whisky,
drunkenness is reduced to a min-
imum.
There is a fine spirit exhibited
m Atlanta for law enforcement.
The law is accepted 36 final and
there is no conspiracy against it.
The newspapers do not encour
age its violation. This sentiment
for law observance is a splendid
pedestal upon which to erect a
municipal edifice.
Nor hat* law enforcement mili
tated again*! business progress.
There i> no greater fallacy than
that,.* wide-open town aids
growth. .Morality, In enmmuui
ty a.« well as ind.jvidu.il. not on
ly is right, but also is profitable.
Another triumph of Atlanta Is
in reducing the so-called social
evil to a minimum. Two young
men belonging to what Is called
th<- Men arid Religion forward
Movement, one a lawyer, the oth
er a business man of wealth. are
largely responsible for this* re
form. Space was taken. In th»
n*-wspapefs and day after da> ad
vertisements were written by the
lawyer and published, urging tin
abolition of the restricted district.
Mon of weAlth, member' of
-‘t hurcher, prominent in church and
public affairs, cancelled their
leases and demanded possession
of their premises, being used for
immoral purposes*.
The wealthy young business man
•expressed the < urloos doctrine
that “business is a ministry and
that a man should serve the
world in his business.*' A home
was provided for the women who
expressed a desire t j reform and
more than .’OP were thus taken
care of. < ontiition* in Atlanta
arc now cleaner than in any
other American city, it is said.
The example set by our Mister
city, ought to appeal to us, botli
from the standpoint of placing
t'hattanooga on an equality with
hs competitive citx in respect to
the correction of these evils and
also because such reforms they
might have in thr race for
growth and population b<* of tre
mendous worth to this communi
ty outside of any effect it might
have in the race for growth and
population and business.
It took two men of courage in
Atlanta to dO these big things —
•one man of courage in Chatta
nooga could do much; a hundred
men of courage would certainly
lead the way to a new era.

suggestion that the readjustment of
the basis of representation in nation
al conventions be left to the Repub
lican National Committee instead of
calling a national convention to make
this change.
Several Middle West Progressive
Congressmen declared that if Wil

HERPICiDE
The man who wears a toupee does not
like it. but has the courage of his con
victions.
Nature never intended that the top of
the head should be left entirely.without
protection. A bald head is very suscep
tible to contraction of colds and neu
ralgia. Wearing an artificial top piece
counteracts this tendency, and. aside
from the improvement in the personal
appearance, is amply justified.
How much better it would have been
had the man, now chronically bald and
wearing a toupee, but realized earlier in
life ihe approaching danger and de
voted a little regular attention to his
hair, which would have saved it.
There is a remedy which will abso
lutely prevent baldness. Loss of hair in
nine cases out of ten js unnecessary,
being due to dandruff and the germ that
causes it. This germ must be destroyed

“I CAME FROM THE COUNTRY WITH
TWENTY DOLLARS”
Editor The Georgian: , ,
Dear Sir—Have just received The Georgian and read your home owners contest plan. It struck me so forci
bly that I did not wait to look over the paper, but got on the job.
On December 1. 1906. we landed in Atlanta with two or three months provisions (came from the country) and
not more than $20 in money Went to work for $10 per week, but was raised soon. That first year v, sab) ; n
one Sickness of family was followed by a spGl of typhoid fever by myself, so I closed the year $40 behind whore
I began By April 15. 1908. this was cleared up. Th n the greatest trouble that confronted me v .s these monthly
rent receipts.With the $13 on the corners. They looked mighty unlucky tome. About that time real, estate firm
advertised very extensively some lots of a subdivision which they had made at $200 per lot—$2 down ahd $2 ; • r
week*. I went and looked at them at once and offered $4 cash and $3 per week fo- two !ots. which they accepted.
Getting a brother to go my security, I managed to borrow $300 with that brother’s aid. I hulled in three rooms
and moved in Th°n work b*gan in earnest; by sunlight and lamplight I was at it (having some knowledge of
carpenter work), in one year’s time I had them finished, and lots were half paid for.
Being crowded in so small a house and it not in keeping -.vith the community. I wasn’t content to stop trer ■
So T w* nt back to thin real estate firm and a-sked them to loan me $200 to build more house. They treated m as
nice ns they did In the first trade. So I went to work and built three more rooms, which gives me a house of six
room* now finished. •
Work was practically all done by myseif at odd times. And I have a home worth $2,500, and what I owe
will not exceetk $200.
