The Chattanooga News Tells Why
This City Is Going Ahead
So Rapidly.
The following- editorial from the
(’hattanooga is worth reading
and studying cat-fully:
(From the Chattanooga New*.)
A FINE EXAMPLE.
The city within 150 miles gf
Fhattanooga. which Ip probably
growing faster than any of our
neighbors. Ip Atlanta. Persons
who consider moving to this sec
tion of the South will, no doubt,
compare Chattanooga with At
lanta. Chattanooga's growth has
been splendidly satisfactory dur
ing the past two years, but If it
<an be increased In any way, it
behoove* the citizen* of Chatta
nooga 10 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 Chris
tian community, contemplated re
moval to a Central Southern City.
What special inducements could
< hattanooga give over Atlanta?
We might cite a good many. In
fact, in only two respects do we
ihlnk that city, more than Chat
tanooga, would make a special
appeal to a family of the above
description.
It Is proper tr> speak of these
The first •*, that Atlanta has
solved the problem of law en
forcement under prohibition bet
ter than any other Southern city
i i. • _i j r_
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 >s a fine spirit exhibited
• n Atlanta for law enforcement.
The law is accepted as final and
there is no conspiracy against it.
The newspapers do not encour
age »ts violation. This sentiment
for law observance is a splendid
pedestal upon which to erect a
municipal edifice.
Nor has law enforcement mili
tated against business progress
There is no greater fallacy than
that a wide-open town aids
growth. Morality, in communi
ty a.*? well as Individual, not on
ly i« 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 and 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 the
newspapers and day after day ad
vertisements were written by the
lawyer and published, urging the
abolition of the restricted district.
Men of wealth, members of
chureher, 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 curious 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 to reform and
more than 200 were thus taken
care of. Conditions in Atlanta
are now cleaner than in any
other American city. It is said
The example set by our sister
city, ought to appeal to us. both
from the standpoint of placing
Chattanooga on *n equality with
its competitive city in respect to
the correction of theao eviU and
also because such reforms^ they
might have in the race for
growth and population he 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.

The man who Wears a ton pep does not
like it, hut 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 mucli better it would have been
had the man. now chronically bald and
wearing a toupee, but realized earlier in
life the 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 is unnecessary,
being due to dandruff and the germ that
causes it. This germ must be destroyed
and the accumulations of dandruff
checked. Then the hair will not fall out,
but instead will grow naturally and lux
uriantly.
Newbro’s Herpicide is the remedy,
regular applications of which ofttimes
produces the most gratifying results. It
has long been known as the "original
remedy that kills the dandruff germ’’
and is absolutely dependable.
Newhro’s Herpicide in 50c and $1.00
sizes is sold by all dealers who guaran
tee it to do all that is claimed. If you
are not satisfied your money* will be re-
fu nded.
Herpicide applications may always he

hair dressing parlors.

“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
nut more than $20 in money Went to work for $10 per week, but was raised soon. That first year was a blue
one Sickness of family was followed by a spell of typhoid fever by myself, so I closed the year $40 behind where
I began By April 15, 1908. this was chared up. Then the greatest trouble that confronted me was those monthly
rent receipts, with the $13 on the corners. They looked mighty unlucky to me About that time a real estate firm
advertised very extensively some lots of a subdivision which they had made at $200 per lot—$2 dov. n and $2 p*?r
week. I went and looked at them at once and offered $4 cash and $3 per week for two lots, which they accepted.
Getting a brother to go m.v security, I managed to borrow $300 with tlmt brother’s aid. I hulled in three rooms
and moved in. Then work began 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 with the community, I wasn’t content to stop there.
I w>*nt back to this r*al estate firm and a^ked them to loan me $200 to build more house. They treated me as
nice a6 they did In the first trade. t So f went to work and built three more rooms, which gives me a* house of six
rooms now finished.
Work was practically all done by myself at odd times. And I have a home worth $2,500. : and w hat I owe
will not exceed $200.
But it took work * work, work! C. E. G*
