T vt4 1 1 V THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. Last Day in Louisiana of Trans continental Tourists Is Hearty and Continuous Ovation. LAKE CHARLES, LA., Sept. 6 — Preceded by an automobile brass band playing “Dixie/* the all-Southem transcontlnentalists flashed into this city Just before dusk Saturday and proceeded across the Texas line. Friday was another day of contin uous ovations. Crowley was loth to let the pathfinder go and when the car finally started the cheers of the Crowley populace was drowned by the “godspeed” of the rice whistles. A magnificent dirt road stretched along the railroad leading to Jennings. A heavy rain during the night failed to impede traffic because of the lib eral use of the log drag. Good Roads Object Lesson. At the ferry Mayor John Gamble and a special reception committee from Jennings greeted Mr. Ferguson with a brass band. On the Jennings side of the river the mud was a foot tfrick, and one of the greatest object lessons of the value of the log drag was encountered. The road had the same rain that had visited the Crow ley side, but it has never been touch ed since it has been formed. While the going was sticky, the car and the escorting machines, numbering twelve, arrived at the parish seat of Jeffer son Davis Parish on schedule time. Mr. Ferguson made his good roads ad dress to an enthusiastic audience. At Welch and at Iowa crowds heard the good roads address, and then the triumphant entry into Lake Charles was made. Reception at Lake Charles. A reception was held at the Ma jestic Hotel between 7 and 8 o’clock, and then the touring party was es corted to the courthouse, where good roads addresses were made by John S. Kent and J. S. Smith, of the Lake Charles Chamber of Commerce; Leon Locke, of the State Legislature; Stanley C. Arthur, representing the press, and Mr. Ferguson. Citizens of the whole western part of Louisiana have shown by their in terest in the coming of the pathfinder that they are more than interested in good roads, and in a coming election in October it is expected that a $900,- 000 bond issue for the building of model gravel roads will receive an overwhelming majority. Westlake, Vinston and Orange, Tex as, will be visited Saturday.

Everyone thought that Atlanta so ciety girls had taken up that latest fad, the wearing of anklet watches, when a startling discovery was made the other night at one of the most exclusive clubs in the city. , A couple of blase youths were sit ting out a dance on the side lines and discussing Atlanta’s chances for the pennant or some other subject equal ly remote from fair young women and turkey-trotting. Suddenly one gave the other a painful jab in the ribs. ‘‘Just look at their ankles!” he com manded. The other one was scandalized at the suggestion, but an Involuntary glimpse disclosed to him that sev eral of the young women turkey-trot ting with Tare vigor had something resembling a watch on their ankles. Looked Like Ingersolls. Closer scrutiny developed that, if they were watches, they were not the dainty little gold timepieces set with diamonds and other precious stones that are being worn in swagger cir cles. They looked more like the nickel kinds one gets at a hardware store. The young men thought that their discovery was a proper subject for an Investigation, or rather for a po lite inquiry. During an Intermission they called one of the young women aside very quietly and very unosten tatiously. Would she object to tell ing them, they asked pleadingly, what those odd contraptions were that so many of the girls were wearing on xheir ankles? 2so; of course she wouldn’t object. There was no secret about It. They were pedometers—that was all. Well, what were they wearing them for? Then came the staggering reply. For Turkey Trot Stakes. “Why, we girls had an argument as to who had turkey-trotted the most and the farthest, and Just to settle it we got these pedometers! Some of us have danced until we are about ready to fall in our tracks, but none of us will give up.” A comparison of the interesting de vices showed that Miss Louise Brad bury, of No. 86 East North avenue, one of the popular members of the college set, was ahead of all the rein by fully a quarter of a mile. ‘‘She’s ahead of us now,” exclaimed the runner-up, “but she started ahead of me, and I’m Just as fresh as when I began. I’ve got a box of candy bet that I will beat her before our contest comes to an end.” Phone Booth Robbed By Man Under Arrest PITTSBURG, PA., Sept. 6.—Ar rested on a charKe of being a suspi cious person, E.

Jail won’t settle that question, but education will, and It is my idea to bring Jesus Christ into court, and I shall handle these lesser cases as they ought to be handled by a humane thinking man, or any Christian who i# not acting the hypocrite.” He declared his ideal of happiness is to be married to a sympathetic woman, to have healthy and happy children. "In a word,” he summed up. "just to be an average man.” The 97-pound Denverite continued: “I am going to write a book one of these days,” and it is going to be called “Sex and Sin.” And in this* book I am going to show up these hypocrites whose very mode of living Is basically responsible for the im moral conditions prevalent to-day."

Detroit, June 21, 1913.-—"About a year ago my two-months-old baby was troubled with what they call milk-crustf*. The low’er part of her body was a mass of sores. It began with small pimples, then they turned to one whole scab. The scab would break open and then it would bleed. She suffered much, as she cried night and day. For one month I tried everything—all kinds of salves, but without relief, until I *ient for a nample of Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap. Upon the first application I noticed a change, and after four days my baby was entirely cured. I can not praise your remedies too high ly, and recommend them to all my friends."

Enthusiasm IsRunningHigh In Pedalmobile Contest r / \ \ \ xrc \ "Gee, ain’t it a peach! Couldn’t I speed some if I had one of them! How many are you going to give away, Mister?” These are some of the remarks to be heard around The Georgian Office where the big red “Georgian Flyer” is on exhibition—the one just like The Hearst’s Sunday American and Atlanta Georgian will give to each boy and girl who secures forty new subscrip tions to the paper before October 1. There are many earnest workers and the subscriptions are coming fast. It would only be a wild guess now to say who will win the first fifteen cars aild receive the Charter Membership Certificates to the Atlanta Pedalmobile Racing Club. These Cer tificates will entitle the holder to compete in any or all races and events to be held in the near future. Pedalmobile Clubs are to be found in many of the large cities, having been promoted by some of the largest and best newspapers in the country. This sort of sport may be new in At lanta, but in many particulars the Pedalmobile races are to the children what the Auto races are to the grown-ups. In fact, they are handled a good deal on the same order and are interesting to the parents as well as the children. These little machines are not to be confined to pleasure alone, but can be put to good use in many different ways. In some cities carrier boys who have won Pedalmobiles may be seen distributing their papers in them. All these cars are well-made and serviceable and will surely gladden the heart of any boy or girl who is fortunate enough to win one. These cars are now on exhibition in the window of O. C. Polk Dry Goods Store, 29 South Gordon Street; South Pryor Ice Cream Parlor, 353 South Pryor Street, and Imperial Tire and Tube Company, 349 Peachtree Street. While attending the Odd- and-Ends Sale at Polk’s Dry Goods Company, be sure to notice the “Georgian Flyer” in the window. OUTSIDE WORKERS.
