next block ‘mugged’ me,” It is the
signal for a detour.
The only embarrassment to these ex

which the French ask questions.
‘““Apres la guerre?’ they ask. “Will
you marry here?"’
This I 8 a burning question just now,
and the girls, or many of them never
miss an opportunity to signify they
have “no fiance.” !

A Personal
Word to Our Readers
The Georgian and American do not print doubtful
financial announcements to fleece our readers and our
community of thousands of dollars annually; question
able medical and obscene advertisements to offend the
refinement of your home; fortune teller, spiritualistic, mat
rimonial and clairvoyant announcements which lure the
gullible, and similar ‘advertisements for which we could
secure, literally, thousands of dollars each year if we were
willing to place the dollar merk above your respect and
confidence, and higher than our duty to our community.
Neither will you find sordid stories featured in a sala
cious manner in The Daily Georgian and Sunday Amer
ican. These “newspapers of the Home"' print all the news
that's fit to print and emphasize all that is clean, bright and
wholesome in their news columns. Both the news and
the advertising columns of “The South's Greatest News
papers’’ endeavor to reflect The Georgian's standard—
“A clean, wholesome newspaper for Southern Homes,"

hot cakes for lunch,
Within an hour aiter the cakes were
eaten, and before medical aid couln
reach them, aged Mr. Schneider was
dead; her husband A. J. Schneider, 80
passed away shortly after, despite all
the attending physicians could do, and
Albart J. Schneider, Jr., 35, died at 7
o’clock last evening.
The metal polish which containedq a
deadly peison, hod been carelessly placed
on the same shelf with the salt, pepper
and spiecs, and the half-blind mother
had evidently us~d a considerable quan

Schneider Jr., was one of Arlington’s
