There was a sort of lull before a
rnpest of effort in the Oglethorpe
campaign Monday, and at the noon-
! ty luncheon the reports of all the
-mmittees but four fell below the
! $4,000 mark for the first time in the
impaign, $3,005 being reported
“This is nothing to grieve about,”
van E. Allen, chairman, asserted.
Only half a day's work to-day, you
see, and you’ll find the rest of the
day will show up in grand style in
he subscriptions reported Tuesday,
besides, we’ve got a new plan.”
Scramble for Prospects.
This was the plan.
The names of a couple of hundred
Mg firms and wealthy individuals
\« ere read out from cards, and as each
ranie was called one or more of the
50 workers present got up and said:
“I’ll take it.”
ft was almost like an auction. Some
of the firms and some of the men were
contested for as eagerly as if the
workers expected to land something
big on their own hook.
•Just hear ’em bidding,” whispered
one, as some popular firm was an
nounced, And that was what i sound
ed like.
“These people haven’t subscribed
yet,” Mr. Allen announced. “Most of
them haven't been approached. Here’s
where we clean up.”
And that was the general impres-
pion.

$1,500,000 Refund to
Go to Insurance Firms
WASHINGTON. Dec. 15.—The Na
tional Government may be compelled to
refund $1,500,000 erroneously collected
from insurance companies under the
corporation tax law as “dividends" as
the result of action by the Supreme
Court to-day.
The court dismissed an appeal of H.
C. H. Herold, internal revenue collector
of Newark, N. J., from a decision of a
lower court holding in favor of the Mu
tual Benefit Life Insurance Company of
Newark.
It is expected that the Government
will drop this fight and permit the in
surance companies to get back the
overcharged tax without anj' further lit
igation.
We are

for a five-passenger auto for the first

nance as originally drawn increasing
the rates by the hour.
Another provision of the ordinance
is that these rates shall be posted
in all automobiles for rent.

not know Mary Phagan by sight and
by name? You may say someone told
him, but who told him?
Meeting Prearranged, He says
“His meeting with Mary Phagan n
Saturday was all prearranged by him.
Mary did not know that signs had
been posted telling the employee* to
draw their pay on Friday night.
Frank knew that she would come
at the usual time—noon Saturday.
“When Helen Ferguson, a friend of
Mary’s, went to get Mary’s pay Fri
day night. Frank would not let her
have it He knew if he did Mary
would not be at the factory on : h*'
morrow. Every step leadlne up to th3
tragedy was planned. Even Jim Con
ley wits asked by Frank to come
around on Saturday so as to be on
watch while the Phagaq girl was
th. re.
“The State -roved without ques
tion that Frank was of bad charac
ter. We established it by the best
witnesses obtainable—by girls, young
girls, who had worked at the facto y
and who at the tin.e of their testifying
had been removed from the influent s
of the factory.
“The defense sought to establish
Frank’s good character. They did it
by friends of the defendant who knew
nothing about the factory or Frank’s
conduct there But it was ut the
factors that the murder \vn com- j
mitted. and it was there that his im
moralities took place ’
Advances Time Argument.
Dorsey called the attention of the I
court to the testimony of a conductor*
who said that the car on which Mary i
Phagan rode reached the city at 12:03. I
a fact which the Solicitor .'aid ef- 1
feetively set at rest all the quibble
over the time element. Mary could
have entered the factory and gone to
the metal room with Frank before
Monteen Stover entered, he declared
Dorsey and Attorney Arnold were
the only speakers of the forenoon
Attorney Arnold spoke two hours
and 40 minutes, leaving but an hour
and twenty minutes ifnder the four-
hour argument granted each side by
the court. The Solicitor said that
Attorney General Felder would oc
cupy part of the time for the State.
Arnold, in closing his address,
charged that Frank was convicted
solely on Insinuation, innuendo and
trumped-up charges, and that the So
licitor had gom- outside his functions
as a prosecuting officer in order to
hang the defendant.
Says Dorsey Twisted Facts.
"Your honors would not believe thit
such inconsequential and Irrelevant
evii'cnre could b< - o d fcinn a de
fendant. but her ( it s. right here tn
the record!” he exclaimed. “It is al
most unbelievable that such methods
con’d be used in convicting a man, |
and that they could be successful in j
a Georgia court of justice.”

He cited th-’ letter Frank
h1» uncle, M, Frank, as an
cd the manner In* v ich Dot
distorted every particle of
into a mountain of suspicion.
The letter, Arnold aid. was
most natural message in the work
and yet the Solicitor bad made it <>;
ns a subterfuge and as :i most posit is
indication of 1‘iwik's guilt
Calls Dorsey Unfair.
Dorsov improperly and unf.- rl
argued that Frank’s wife had a
sclousness of his guilt, Nrnold
dared, because she had not visit d
him at the J^JFfor several da\s af r
his arrest.
He had branded Fran’, as a rp i
banded murderer merely hem us.
Frank had been in the factory at the
time.
The Solicitor had declared th
fendnnt guilty, first because
nervous, and later because
calm and collected.
"Ho was guilty because he had
hired counsel," said Arnold. "He was
guilty because he bad told Newt Lee
he could have a holiday Saturday
afternoon, the day Mary Phagan was
murdered He was guilty because big
John Gantt scared him Saturday
night.
“Why. your honor, they haven't a
shadow- of a case, against Frank, ex
cept on the testimony of the lying Jim
Conley.
“It is built upon Just such flimsy
circumstances as T have cited. It is
evidence which a judge should riot
even submit it to a jury.
The early part of Arnold’s address
de-
h ■ was
ho was
to ' ' mrt was given over to a de
scription of the National pencil fac
tor.', where Mary Phagan was mur
dered, and to a review of the entire
1 *ise. who-h hu characterized one of
the deep* ; murder mysteries that
c\*' 11;id perplexed a community.
His first direct argument had ref
erence to the time element which
pi i' < I a large part, in the testimony
and arguments throughout Frank's
trial and later in the arguments in
behalf of a new trial before Judge
Roan.
11^ contended that the testimony of
the state’s own witnesses made it
palpably impossible that Mary Pha
gan could ha\< been attacked or
murdered at the time the State con
tended the crime was done. Georg©
Epps, a State's witness, testified that
he rode io town with Mary Phagan
the day she was slain and that she
arrived at Forsyth and Marietta
streets at 12:07 o’clock. Allowing four
minute to walk to the pencil fac
tory, Arnold argued that the fac
tory girl could not have reached
there before 12:11 o’clock. But the
.State, he said, maintained that the
Phagan girl hail arrived there be
fore 12:05 o'clock, or actually before
the < ir on which sin rode arrived in
the city. Dorsey had to do this, ac
cording to the attorney, in order to
make it fit in with his theory that
Monteen Stover, who entered the fac
tory nt 12:05, was unable to find
Frank in his office because it was at
this moment that the young superin
tendent was in Hie rear of the fac
tory in the act of strangling the Pha
gan girl to death.

Does the simple announcement suffice? Perhaps so to those
who know the ChamberlinJohnson-DuBose Co. methods of
conducting suit sales when their object is to clearaway stocks.
If you, who are reading this, should happen to be one who
does not know our rather decisive methods at such times, read
below with the confidence that the prices stand for
as they are:

The price-cuts are a bit unusual, are they not?
And the suits, we might best tell you what they are by telling you what they are not.
They are not makers’ odds and ends thrown together for sales purposes. Such suits
do not enter here!
They are suits that our buyer selected; smart styles, tailored to perfection, of mate
rials and in colors that need no argument in their favor. Such suits as we have been mak
ing an enviable reputation on, such as you will be very proud to own.
Are you in need of a suit?
Christmas shopping gives place momentarily to such an event, unless it includes a
suit as a gift.
Note the number of suits involved in this sale---one hundred and sixty in all. The
smart thing to do would be to get a very early start. The store opens at eight o'clock.
