Veteran Officers Object to Being
Retired From Force on
Half Pay.
Advent of Additional Motorcycles
Enables Constabulary to
Cover More Territory.
There were long conferences In
Chief Beavers’ private office Saturday
because hIx of the ten policemen the
commission recently voted to retire
on half pay didn’t want to retire. It j
took the Chief two hours to convince !
the veteran officers that it was ncces- |
sary they retire, and, whether they j
wanted to or not. It was strictly the j
orders of the board. After which they
reluctantly signed their names to the
pension roll.
The most strenuous pretest was
made by J. W. Norman, formerly cap
tain of police, who was admitted to
the department March 31, 1881. and
who now has six stripes on his sleeve
—one for every five years—and he
will soon get another one. Captain
Norman said he would like to serve
another year. He i» 66 years old.
H. A. Thompson, who was put on
the force March 31, 1887, didn’t much
like quitting, preferring to remain on
the force until this fall. W. F. Whit
ley, admitted December 8, 1884, quick
ly signed the pension petition. He
wanted to retire. Others who objected
to retirement were T. L. Bayne, now
turnkey on the day watch, who is only
45 years old, and who was admitted
October 4, 1901; George Steint, May
24, 1884; R. Braselton, March 31, 1891,

Anti Fake Ad Bill
To Have Easy Sailing
The bill Introduced in the Legisla

Fulton County, to prevent the publi
cation in Georgia of false or mislead
ing advertising, according to inquirv
made by St. Elmo Massengale, presi
dent of the Atlanta Ad Men’s Club,
will not have any opposition at all.
The bill makes the violation of the
act a misdemeanor, and the punish
ment Is the same as for any other
form of misdemeanor. The execu
tive committee of the Ad Men’s Club
will name a committee to appear be
fore the legislative committee to
which the bill is assigned and urge Its
passage.
Chairman J. Oscar Mills, of the Po
lice Committee of the Board of Coun
ty Commissioners, and Chief George
Mathieson Saturday conferred on
plans for the reorganization of the
county polio# system, to be put into
effect following the awarding next
Wednesday of the contract for four
teen new police motorcycles.
Bids for the motorcycles, which are
to supplant horses now in use in the
department, were received Saturday.
They came from the Indian Motorcy
cle Company, the Harley-Davidson
Company and the Henderson Com
pany.
The installation of the new motor
cycles will bring about a general
change in the system of the county
department. It is the purpose of the
Police Committee, the other members
of which are W. Tom Winn and Dr.
W. L. Gilbert, to divide the county
into three districts, each one to be
under supervision of a lieutenant, and
to form these districts into regular
"beats.’’
At present there are six motorcy
cles in service in the department, and
five of these will be given in exchange
on the pur base price of the new ones.
Only one lieutenant now rides a mo
torcycle but under the reorganization
all three lieutenants will be motor-
mounted. and twelve policemen will
use motorcycles.
"This change will enable the po
licemen to cover more territory in
much less time, will insure a more
systematic policing of • the whole
county, and will bring about greater
efficiency in the police department
generally,’’ said Chairman Mills.

BENSCOT
MINERAL WATER
FROM AUSTELL, GEORGIA
A NATURAL mineral spring water that comes pure, clear and
cold from the depths of the crystalline rocks peculiar to the
Austell district—far removed from human habitation, and pro
tected from every possible source of surface contaminations, however
slight. , . . , ,
This magnificent NATURAL production contains that rarest and
most valuable of all salts—LITH1A—also Sodium Chloride and other
associate elements corresponding to the tissue-cell salts of the body,
and hence it is a health water of unusual and singular merit. No water
ever brought to public attention is so universally popular, and our
hundreds of testimonials among its 5,000 patrons in the most exacting
homes, stores, banks, offices, factories and soda fountains, where it is
used exclusively, and is appreciated and praised, proves incontroverti-
bly its inestimable value from a health point of view to all who wisely
drink it.
As a table water and family beverage and for general drinking
purposes BENSCOT is without a rival or approach, and when com
bined with the pure fruit juices of fresh lemons and limes at the soda
fountain a delicious drink is produced with a taste you can’t forget—
and wouldn’t if you could. “Lemon-Lime and Benscot” is clean, pure
and wholesome, tastes fine, refreshes one when fatigued, cools the
blood, hence the brain, and the saline tinge affords a smack of relish
that is totally lacking in all other waters. The best founts know the
art of making Lemon-Lime and Benscot just right—your favorite one
can serve you.
BEWARE
Call for this delightful liquid morsel by the full name—"LEMON-
LIME and BENSCOT”—and emphasize It. Benscot, like all other
really great successes, Is followed by the nostrum. Be sure that you
sidestep any concoction of distilled Chattahoochee and chemically
made llthla that can only prove disappointing. Such attempted Imi
tations when offered as the genuine NATURAL product are counter-
felts In disguise, and should not be encouraged.
