TTTF ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. Two Lines Retaliate for Defeat Police Commission Demotes “Vice by Travelers by Withdrawing Interchangeable Books. The Centra! and Atlanta. Birming ham and Atlantic railroad* have noti fied the Georgia Railrpad Commis sion that on and after Decembed 17 all interchangeable mileage books, good for transportation wholly with in the State, will be withdrawn, and thereafter only such mileage books aa are sold by the individual roads, good for travel on those roads alone, will be offered. The Central will issue strictly in trastate mileage at the present price of 2 cents per mile, good only on the Central, while the A., B. & A. will confine its sales to intrasta'u penny script. good only under the same regulations. The railroads, therefore, apparently have "gone the limit” in restricting mileage use in Georgia, under the terms of the State Commission’s or der. and the question now arises whether the roads, in withdrawing interchangeable mileage, good who ly within the State, have not violated a Commission order that may pre cipitate further litigation by the trav eling men. Ignore Regulations. There is a regulation which says that no facility, once having be n granted by the railroads, whether voluntarily or otherwise, shall bo withdrawn without the Commission’s permission. This permission neither the Central nor the A., B. A* A. has secured or asked for. Chairman Murphey Candler, in ren dering a dissenting opinion to the Commission's original order, whUh order subsequently was upheld by the Supreme Court, sets forth as one of his reasons for opposing the order at the time the fear that the very thing would happen which has happened— lhat is, the complete withdrawal in Georgia of all interchangeable mile age, good wholly within the State. As the situation now shapes itself, -.raveling men in Georgia must use for transportation wholly within Georgia a separate mileage book for every road, no matter how short or long, used in traveling. They will have to carry two or three dozen mileage books, and must tie up hun dreds of dollars, where before they had only to tie up from $2.'. to $50. Other Roads Likely to Follow. And even individual mileage books, good only in Georgia, must be used in cities of over 10.COO under the old exchange system, which p'.ovides that the strips must be taken up at the ticket windows and trip tickets given by the agents therefor. All mileage hooks sold before De cember 17 will b- honored under the present regulations, but books se cured after that date mu9t be used under the new-. Presumably the other roads of the State will foilow the lead of the Cen tral and the A., B & A., and it is regarded as practically certain that the traveling men will now ask that the legality of the railroads’ position be tested before the Commission, and in the courts, if necessary, as to whether the roads have the right f o withdraw State interchangeable mile age without the State Commission’s consent. $1,501,547,150 Paper Money Made in 1913 WASHINGTON.

J. A. Hollis, ranking as a patrol man until a few hours before Wed nesday, was appointed head of At lanta’s "vice squad” to replace J. W. Barfield, whose removal and demo tion created a sensation at Thursday night's meeting of the Police Board. As Chief Beavers' right-hand man in the war on evil resorts, Barfield had made a reputation that led many to believe that he would be promoted to a sergeant by the board. His dis missal from the leadership of the vice squad, therefore, was the more surprising and was the chief topic of conversation Wednesday In police ci roles. Barfield was nominated and rec ommended as sergeant, by Chief Beavers and the action of the Police Board was in direct opposition to his expressed wishes. Hollis, however, was named as second choice by the Chief and was elected a sergeant without dissent, being appointed head of the "vice squad’’ Wednesday fore noon. Barfield in the future will rank as a patrolfnan. The fight against him was waged by Chairman Mason, of the Police Board, who told his fel low-members that he was forced to oppose the vice squad head because of many reports of dissension that had come to him. He had understood that the men working under Barfield were dissatisfied with his adminis tration and that much discord had resulted. At the same time he named Bar- field for sergeant. Chief Beavers made the same recommendation in behalf of Alfred D. Luck and George A. Maddox, roundsmen. Luck and Mad dox were elected. Barfield’s name was rejected by a vote of 8 to 3. Commissioners Smith. Vernoy and Garner cast the favorable votes. Hol lis then was named by Beavers in place of Barfield and was chosen without opposition. The three ser geants will begin their new duties at once. The election of the three sergeants followed action by the Police Board some time ago to abolish the posi tion of roundsman. Barfield, Luck and Maddox, because of their posi tions as roundsmen, were consid ered in line for promotion, but a few days before the board meeting there were well authenticated reports of a strong fight being made against Bar- field. Barfield lias been long in the po lice service and was made a mem ber of the "vice squad” at its or ganization. Appointive Power of Macon Mayor Cut MACON.

Chamberlin.Johnson-DuBose Co. ATLANTA NEW YORK PARIS La Vida A Corset T hat Harmonizes With Present-Day Fashions are The new models of La Vida Corsets fine! The makers seem to have caught the underlying idea of the new fashions and have,* with remarkable accuracy, evolved corsets that fit in, that dove-tail with the new fashions. We hear a great deal about the new silhouette, the new uncorseted figure; we hear a great deal more than we find when we come to getting the corset that really lends itself helpfully to the un corseted figure. But the La Vida people have built these ‘‘free and easy” corsets so success fully that we can recommend them to our patrons with the confidence that we shall be doing them a service. La Vida Corsets are right in detail; the result of thorough corset knowledge working in harmony with the style arbiters. However these points, the details that make La Vida Corsets a success are hard to put into words; there are no de- scribable tricks about the fashioning of them; rather a woman likes and appre ciates a La Y r ida AFTER she has tried one on. Then she comes to realize that in some unusual way it fits and con- form? and imparts to her figure that sil houette she would acquire. Let’s say again, that it is the result of thorough corset knowledge that goes into the making of every La Vida. Right now—to the end of this week— Mrs. Marvin, An Expert Corsetiere, Is Here demonstrating La \ r idas. and women may well look upon her demonstration as an opportunity. She “knows how” and she has the corsets here to fit you as you and the fashions say you should he fitted. These are some of the models she uses. The variety shows that any woman will be fitted in the model right for her. At $5.00, a brocaded corset for the medium figure. Not an extreme line in it, and one of the most favored models for that reason. Low bust, medium long skirt. At $5.00, a coutil corset for the tall, slender figure. Elastic front gore, soft boning, long in the back; but the bon ing in the back conforms to the figure when sitting—a fact worth noting. At $5.00, a soft coutil corset for the medium and slender figure; free hips, ‘boneless’’—splendid for the dancers. One and one-half-inch bust, long back. The same model at $4.50 and $3.50. At $8.50, an extra long imported coutil corset for the medium figure that requires a bit heavier than the ordinary corset; elastic gored back, elastic lacings over the abdomen. The same in a grade at $6.50. At $8.50, a broche corset for the me dium figure; free hip, low bust, extra long back. At $9.00, an imported coutil corset for the medium or large figure—of superb lines—long back and full hips, elastic lacings in front. It Would Seem That Everyone Will Qet Chamberlin-Johnson-DuBose Co. Handkerchiefs There is certainly every reason why those who gi ve handkerchiefs should give Chamber- lin-.Johnson-DuBose Company handkerchiefs. Take the stock, box by box, front one end of the long counter (they occupy extra space for the Christinas season) to the other, the values are finest. We have what we call very happy connections over in Handkerchief Isle that make it possible for ns to sell these little bits of linen at lower prices than we could did we have to depend upon those who buy their handkerchiefs through New York. And. judg ing by the crowds that hover around the hand kerchief section, this seems to be pretty well understood. It does not take a woman long to discover where the prettiest things are! Prices begin at 10c for all-linen handker chiefs—the men’s size is 18 inches square! Then come corner embroidered handker chiefs for women at 15c. And initialed hand kerchiefs—and the big world of novelties at 25c. Glove handkerchiefs, unique embroidery designs without end. initials done with as much care and neatness as if they were made by those who will give them—and the Christ mas boxes (of four different designs), at $1.00! You will enjoy choosing from such a variety. Two particularly bright and interesting spots right now are the neckwear section and the jewelry and leather goods section. In the neckwear are some attractive gift boxes that are coming in for great favor—- it may be a tie, a bow, a collar, a set, and it my be found for as little as 50c or as much as $10.00. Every one is gifty. In the jewelry and leather goods there is an infinite variety of novelties —• vanities, pencils, brooches, hair ornaments, beads, shoe buckles, desk sets, traveling cases, collar bags, drinking cups--- the list grows longer as we name it. Let a visit show what we have gathered for you. Chamberlin=Johnson=DuBose Company
