Quits Wife for Army;
Patriot, Says Judge
SPRINGFIELD, ILL., Dec. 13.—A
married man who leaves ills wife to
Join the United States army is a
patriot and not a wife deserter, ac
cording to a ruling by Judge Creigh
ton, in the Sangamon County Circuit
Court.
The opinion .was expressed in a
ruling by the court that Mrs A’ice
Sidener must chance her bill of di
vorce from William F v Sidener to
say that Sidener “left” her to Join
the army, instead of "deserted" her
for that purpose.
“A man can not be charged with
desertion because he Joins the army,"
Judge Creighton observed. “That Is
a. patriotic act."

The Thoroughbred Car
Guarantee
Every purchaser of Herreshoff cars in Atlanta and
vicinity is given a Herreshoff Service Guarantee This
guarantee is not the kind ordinarily given by Motor Car
Manufacturers, but one that is a positive assurance to
the purchaser that for one year his car will be kept in
perfect repair, absolutely free of charge, except in case
of tire repair and replacements and damage resulting
through accident.
It includes work for which heretofore the purchaser,
under the usual form of guarantee, had to stand the
expense—new spark plugs, grinding valves, removing
carbon and work of similar nature
411 necessary replacements of parts and the making
of repairs will be made without argument.
Our Service Guarantee is based on our knowledge
that the 1014 IJerreshoff is a thoroughbred, and we will
back it to the limit.

No rcdi estate development project
ed ifi Atlanta In years has been more
talked about than the conversion ol
Silver Lake and its surrounding ter
ritory Into the beautiful residence
community of Silver Lake Estates.
Since the present project was con
ceived and planned by L. P. Boften-
field, who has put back of it the
whole strength of his forceful real
estate organization, Silver Lake, long
a well-known beauty spot, has been
more in the public! eye than any sim
ilar residence development in this
section of the South. It is known, it
might almost be said, from Maine to
Texas and from Iowa to Key West.
And from the first, superficial view
of it, that of a somewhat daring un
dertaking, It Is now generally consid
ered one of the best business real es
tate propositions Atlanta has ever
presented. So strong has this impres
sion become that people of Atlanta
and the South have already subscrib
ed $300,000 of the $500.000Capital re
quired for purchase and development
of the property, and prospective sub
scriptions from interested parties, it
is said, will soon fill out the required
amount.
Investors Realize Value.
Those who have investigated have
convinced themselves of the value of
I he project. It has been shown where,
at conservative prices, the residence
lots in developed Silver Lake Estates
will sell for $2,500,000 or more, a
profit of four for one to the investors.
The splendid quality of this invest
ment has been widely commented on.
and prominent Georgians have spoken
of the splendid future of Silver Lake
as a residence section.
Hon. John Temple Graves, editor of
The Atlanta Georgian and .Sunday
American, an At lantan wht> knows
this property well, says of it, among
other things:
Opinion of Colonel Graves.
“The soil about Oglethorpe will be
almost sacred soil. A home about
Oglethorpe will be beyond all value.
Silver Lake Estates will be girt by
streets of golden association and op
portunity. Happy the man whose
home Is planted there.”
Speaking of the investment side of
Silver Lake Estates, Henry C. Bag-
ley, of Bagley, Willet & Paine, gen
eral agents for the Penn Mutual Life
Insurance Company, who is familial*
with every foot of the Silver Lake
property, says:
“The plan seems to me. in every
particular, both attractive and sub
stantial, and one that must strongly
appeal to the investor. 'Your proposal
of a land dividend, giving an almost
immediate return, while the subscrib
er still retains his stock and partici
pates in all future profits f rom the
sale of the property, is a particularly
valuable feature. It is my opinion
that tile Silver Lake property, as soon
as developed, is going to be in good
demand, and that those associated
with you will enjoy most gratifying
fT-pfi^ from the sale.”
