Ever since tne doors of the Irish-
American Hank were closed last Sat
urday by Deputy State Bank Exam
iner North, at the instance of the
board of directors, there have been
wild rumors regarding its condition.
There are a number of uuditors at
work on the books, and they are hav- I
ing a hard struggle getting at the tru«
condition of affairs. It has been re
ported that ic will require at least GO
days to find the exact state of affairs,
and Armstrong is the only man who
can give the auditors much assist
ance, as he practically ran the institu
tion.

the directors had the most implicit
confidence in the cashier s business
ability and also in his integrity, and
the bank's affairs were not interfered
with by the other officers and direc

cause of the bank's troubles was the

BEEVES CAN 8E
RAISED TO FEED
ENTIRE STATE
Peter F. Bahnsen Says Sections
Free of Cattle Tick Are Thriv
ing—Newton County Cited.
According ot Dr. Peter F. Bahsen,
State Veterinarian, in charge of tick
eradication work for the State De
partment of Agriculture, the interest
in raising high-grade beef stock for
the market is increasing steadily in
those comities which are free from
cattle tick.
“Newton County was released from
the cattle tick quarantine in Septem
ber of this year,” said Dr. Bahsen,
d“an immediately after the ban was
lifted the live stock owners in that |
county bought a carload of registered
Hereford t attle for breeding purposes.
These will be distributed and soon I
fine beeves will be shipped into the j
markets from that county, command
ing top prices.
“With high-grade beef stock bring
brought into Georgia for breeding
purposes and with Georgia producing
annually thousands of tons of cot
ton sired meal and hulls, accepted i
the most fattening and least expen
sive form of cattle feed, there is mo
reason why Georgia should not soon
produce more beef than this State
can use.”

16 MARIETTA ST.
| ATHENS, Dec. 20.—High-browed
maidens on the roll of Lucy Cobb
College are gleeful when they talk
of the newest elective course. Jt does
not smack in the least of erudition or
esoteric learning, but it is so en
thralling that there are many who
confess the dust of neglect is settling
on the calculus, the French grammar
and the Virgil. This new course is,
oh, so popular!
True to the classic college tradi
tions, they must call it domestic sci
ence. But it is Just plain cooking
after all.
The new course, which is number
ing dozens of enthusiastic recruits,
runs through three years. In that pe
riod the girls are led through the
mazes of the kitchen, are introduced
first to the simple formulae for bacon
and eggs and grits and coffee, and
then are boosted gradually to the
heights of more artistic cooking, un
til salads ^md desserts and the diffi
cult dainties are reached and mas
tered. .
The course lis in charge of Miss
Ida Hall, a capable young wom
an from Philadelphia, who, having
studied and stewed and fricasseed in
the kitchen clinics of several leading
training schools, is able to tell the
young Georgia college girls that
kitchen work is not drudgery but an
art to be fostered and cherished.
Unrolled as students in the course
are a number of girls from the most
prominent families of Georgia. One of
the first recruits was Miss Cora
Brown, daughter of former Governor
Joe Brown, who, although in her last
year at Lucy Cobh, was attracted by
Domestic Science I. as the new course
is duly and formally registered in the
catalogue, and who is one of the most
enthusiastic in the class.

Let Us “Mere Men ’ Consider a
Moment the Kind of Candy We
Will Give This Christmas
•lust for ttie sake of argument we will suppose 1 iiat
we are all ‘’mere men,” busy with this, that and the other
thing and that we have not nil the time in the world to give
over to the selection of Christmas gifts; also that there is
someone on our list for whom ‘‘a, box of candy” is the
most appropriate remembrance. Also that we have given
‘‘a box of candy” before—and that we ordered it just that
way—‘‘a box of candy;” as if “a box of candy” were a
standardized article costing so much a pound. Doubtless,
we have all done something like this at one time or
another.
Let's see if we were right—let’s see if we are going
to do the same thing this year.
All of us are not.
The reason is we are going to know more about Whit
man’s candy.
To say it is the best is but to state a fact, hut why is
if best ? We wish we could put before you all the skill,
the “know how,” the spotless cleanliness, the absolutely
purest ingredients that go into the making of every piece
of Whitman’s candy.
Some say that the Whitman people are cranks—that
they over-do things, that some of their methods are too
strict.
They will insist that it is not necessary to keep a huge
factory down to the chilly temperature of GO degrees,
winter and summer.
But Whitman’s do.
They will say they can depend on the importers for
their cocoa and chocolate.
But Whitman’s know they get the best cocoa beans,
because they go across seas themselves to select them,
them.
Some makers will say that the best fruit flavors are
not absolutely necessary. But, Whitmans think they are.
Some makers, do not think it necessary to use only
selected nuts.
And yet Whitman’s do.
Explain it by saying that Whitmans are an old
Quaker establishment, if you will. But then look at the
packages -it, would seem that Whitmans were a Parisian
candy shop.
Better to explain it that Whitmans are seekers after
the best, whether it be the candy or the package.
Their packages! But we see the packages and
how novel,charming and different they are; how distint-
tivc. We recognize their gift possibilities when we re
member lhat first impressions are lasting impressions.
So Whitmans at Christmas time give us their superb
candies—in mahogany jewel chests—in hand-painted
opera and sewing bags—in rich reddish brown Japanese
wickers—in satin-lined, ribbon-wrapped Christmas bas
kets.
(live “a box of candy” this year! He will give Whit
man's who once sees and knows Whitman’s!
And now the Cone Service to add to the Whitmans
quality. We see to it that it is absolutely fresh, that it
will be delivered in Atlanta within the hour you name, or
that it shall he mailed or expressed to reach her on the
day.
