IKF Lilli L ‘Would Improve the Human Race’ She’sLongfellow’sGranddaughter The Chattanooga News Tells Why This City Is Going Ahead So Rapidly. The following: editorial from the Chattanooga New.* is worth reading and studying cai'full} (From the Chattanooga New*.) A FINK EXAMPLE. The city within 150 mile* of Chattanooga, whjjch is probably growing faster than any of our neighbors, is 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 papt two years, but if It can be Increased In any way, It behoove* the citizens of Chatta nooga to take the steps necessa- ry to make our community the favorite with desirable new clti- »ens. So it is well for us to analyse 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 t’hattanooga give over Atlanta? We might cite a good many. In fact, 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 proper to speak of these The first »». that Atlanta has iolvad 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 3 reater extent as to lighter rinks, 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 'n Atlanta for law enforcement. The law is accepted as 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 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 aa well ns Individual, 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 nten belonging to what is called the Men amt 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 churcher, 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 • urlous 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 ••are 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 an equality with its competitive city in respect to the correction of these evils and also because such reforms they might have in the race for growth a neb population be of tr< mendous worth to this communl ty outside of any effect it might have In the race for growth and population and business. It took tw’o 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.

P, WASHINGTON, May 21 Progres sive members of Congress were in clined to take kindly to-day to the suggestion that the readjustment of tlie 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.

It struck me so forci bly that I did not wait to look over the pape . 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 $2ft in money. Went to work for Sift per week, but was raised soon. That first year was a blue one. Sicknea* 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 clrared up. Then the greatest trouble that confronted me was those monthly rent receipts, with the S13 on the corners. They looked mighty unlucky tome. About that time a real, estate firm advertised very extensively some lots of a subdivision which they had made at 3200 per lot—$2 flown and $2 per w-ek. 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 my security, I managed to borrow* $300 with that 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 mere. So i wi*nt back to this r*>al estate firm and asked them to loan me $200 to build more house. They # treated mo as nice as they did in the first trade. So I 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 $-.500,'and w hat I owe will not exceed $200. But It took work.' work work! , C. B. €r- Atjanta, Ga.. Dec. 4. 1910. SITUATIONS WANTED—FEMALS.
