Isabor H. M. Stanley Is spending; a
few days at home, enjoying a much-
needed and well-deserved rest from
his official duties
The fommlfirtoner la well please-H
with the work of his department,
which 1* relali.elv a youngster among
the oth«-r departments, and talks most
Interentlnirlv of the same.
Discussing the year’s labors before
leaving for horn<», Commissioner
Stanley said:
“Already a great deal of statistical
matter concerning the industrial re
source* of the State, which has nev
er before beeti compiled, has been dis
seminated, and a& the department
grows this work will increase and
much valuable information will be
prepared and distributed.
“The department has accomplished
a great work In seeing that the laws
regarding the employment of women
and children are compiled with. The
act creating this department makes
it my duty to »<ee that these laws are
enforced.
“When I took charge of the office
the law requiring mercantile and
manufacturing establishments to fur
nish seats to their female employees
was a dead letter, and had been for
more than twenty years This law la
now being enforced The large de
partment stores In the city have al
ready provided »eats for their female
employees, and we now are looking
after the enforcement of the law In
the mnaller cities and towns
“I have begun work on the second
annual report to the Governor and It
will make an even better showing
than the one issued for the year end
ing December 31 of laat year.”
President .1 Randolph Anderson,
ex-officio Lieutenant Governor of
Georgia, Is Improving rapidly from
an operation for appendicitis, which
took place In Savannah Monday
His physicians say that he will be
out within the next two weeks.
Representative-elect Thomas Car
roll, of Catoosa, named to succeed
Representative Bryan, deceased, fur
nishes a fine example of the virtue of
keeping everlastingly at It!
He has been a candidate for the
House regularly for some 30 years,
and never, before has won out. He
has been a perpetually willing sacri
fice for principle's sake, however, and
has not grown weary In well doing, as
he managed to see things.
He accumulated a large "hunch”
several years ago that sooner or lat
er he was to serve a term in the
Georgia Legislature, and he never has
been able to shake himself loese from
that "hunch,” despite his varied as
sortment of Waterloos.
And now—well, he Is Representa
tive-elect, at last, and he will be
sworn In next summer, "if he lives
and nothing happens!”
Mr. Carroll is a popular and able
man, and his friends predict for him
a useful career In the House.
The chartering of the State Pecan
Bank, In Baconton, makes the nine
teenth State bank organized and
started In business this year.
On December 10 last year ihere
had been chartered and started In
business exactly 50 State banks—a
number So far ahead of this year’s I
record that it will not be equaled even j
apnroxJmately.
This has not been as good a year as
last for organizing banks—that much j
Is evident—but It has been an ex- ,
ceedingly prosperous year in Georgia, 1
nevertheless.
and as It is only a few miles from his
home in Floyd to the Alabama line, he
finally got bis consent to pay the re
quired |15 hunting license In AlabatruL
and hied him forth to hunt He had
fine luck, too, and killed a big bag
When ne started home with his kill,
however, he suddenly recollected that
, he couldn’t carry those bi r d8 Into (ieor-
\ gbi and not violate the law’ Being »
j Judge, he couldn't afford to violate the
law. no matter how great the tempta
tlon Besides there was & companion
hunter along who might tell It was n<)t
ion* until train time, moreover and **,
there was nothing to It but to give all
those fine birds away and give them
away in Alabama, at that!
Judge Wright will now sell hla $lf»
Alabama hunting license for $3 49, If
anybody wants to buy It!
Norman Hackett
To Play Stock Here
A stock company headed by Nor
man Hackett probably will open a<
the Lyric Theater after two more
weeks of road shows, according to an
announcement made Thursday by
Hugh Cardoza, manager of the house.
Emma Bunting will come to the Lyric
next, week and the following week
there will be another road show. Then
Hackett will be here, and unless first-
class road companies can be booked
Hackett probably will remain in At
lanta at the head of the company In
stock.
It Is understood that, the change
from road show’s to stock companies
will be made In several of the Jake
Wells theaters In the South, owing to
the lack of good road productions.

TAKE STUART'S 6UCHU

KIDNEYS

Ths Joint Legislative Committee of the i
Western and Atlantic Railroad, which'
!r to-day looking over the State’s fine
terminal property in Chattanooga with a
view to making recommendations as to
the forthcoming re lease of the road,
has no power to make binding reporta.
What it may have to say to the Leg
islature next summer will be merely
advisory, and in no way mandatory.
The road will not be disposed of a*
to its future by the present legislature
—nof. perhapp, by the next. It is hoped
that the way may be cleared up com- |
pletely. however, for the Legislature that ,
does act finally as to what terms shall '
govern the re-lease of the road.
This property is the biggest asset the
State has. of course. It is worth to
day many tiffies what it cost, and will I
continue to enhance in value as the
years go by. There Is no doubt what
ever that it will be re if It is dis
posed of that way. which seems most
ikely—upon terms far more advanta
geous to the State than the present con
tract.
The fund arising from the rent of this
road goes to the common school fund,
and hence the legislature will be par
ticularly careful to make It produce the
maximum of revenue.
Judge Moses Wright, of the Rome Su '
perior Court circuit, who is a mighty
hunter, recently had a most harrowing !
experience in Alabama
The Judge heard there was some fine
bird shooting to be had in that £tate.
