Be Sure Your Home Is
NORRIS-BUILT
THE NAME INSURES
Beauty of Architectural Design.
Standard Materials,
l.owest Possible Cost,
Good Workmanship.
Quick Service,
The demand for Norris-built homes
has become so great and our business
has grown to such proportions that
it has become necessary for us to
move to larger quarters.
OUR OFFICES ARE NOW ON THE
BALCONY FLOOR OF THE PEACH
TREE ARCADE BUILDING.
TELEPHONE NUMBER MAIN 30.
With the return of business condi
tions to normal, following the cessation
of the war, a new era has dawned for
Atlanta, and our city is experiencing a
period of building and contemplated
building, the like of which, has not been
known here in twenty years.
Abnormally high rents and the grow
ing popularity of the own-a-home idea
has proven a great impetus to home
building, and today practically every
renter in the city is hoping to either
build or buy a home already built at an
early date.
IN BUILDING A HOUSE FOR A
HOME, A PERSON SHOULD
HAVE THE VERY BEST.
There is a great difference in build
ing a house for a home and building one
for an investment.
The investor builds with a view of
either selling as early as possible or
renting.
The home builder constructs a per
manent place in which to live—to raise
his children and establish his citizen
ship.
Naturally a man exercises greater
care in building his home. He wants an
experienced architect to design it; he
wants an experienced builder to build it.
We are experienced architects as
well as builders,
WE MAKE A SPECIALTY OF BUILD
ING HOMES AND APARTMENTS.
For a number of yvears we have made
a specialty of designing and building
homes and apartments. Our facilities
are the best money can afford, and we
believe that specializing as we have,
that we are in a better position to serve
vou in the constrnetion of a home or
apartment than the firm that has con
ducted a general building business,
If vou are in the market for a home.
or if you anticipate building an apart
ment we will be glad to submit plans
and specifications and advise you in any
way possible.
The following is a list of some of the
Norris-built apartments that have been
recently completed:

1 HOROSCOPE.
Sanday, May 25, 1918,
Astrology reads this as an unimportant
day in planetary direction, but the sway
8 really favorable Uranus, the Sun mm
Neptune are all in benefic aspeoct,
During this configuration the influ
ences tend to dn adjustment of the public
mind to changed conditions
It should be favorable for the implanta
tion of progressive ideas concernimg ree
ligious duty and economic policies ‘
Preachers and teachers should benefit
from this rule of the stars, which make
for the crystallization of opinions and
the steadying of national impulses.
Uranus presages increase of interest in |
spiritual matters, Although schemes and
dissensions are indicated in churches these ‘
troubles are but signs of growth, the seers
declare,
Neptune foreshadows a great mgpn..(-.‘
tual awakening which will reach the toil
ers and place them in positions of perma
nent betterment
There is asign read as forecasting a su
preme gain for America owing to co
operation affecting interests in either
CAfrica or South America.
‘ This should be a most auspicious time
for visiting those whose good opinion it is
desirable to gain. Persons in the Sun
are pnllow-d to be more susceptible to sug
gestion under this sway than under other
planetary direction,
A forecast of the summer quarter proms
ises prosperity to the country, but with it
an increase of crime and immortality.
Again frauds affecting the revenue are in
dicated. The Moon is in a place denoting
diplomatic blunders that will be uncov
ered in ulJne,
There is a prognostication most promis
ing for the West which will lead in some
great movement.
The seers declare that the law of love
should now dominate and that all classes
should seek industrial peace while it is
possible to prevent trouble.
Persons whose birthdate it is have the
augury of success in business affairs. Pro
motions and nhew business associate are
indicated.
Children born on this day may be high
strung and impressionable. These sub
jects of Gemini are usually successful as
cvmployees,

‘All offices repodt a good business dur

scarcity of houses, and as a result good

So far there has been no decided boom
in central property, yet from the num

combined with the scarcity of desira

the buying of business property will be

ST. LOUIS, May 24—How Sosthene
Gallais, who died of heart trouble re
cently at his home in Tulsa, Oklahoma,
began life in St. Louis at the age of 21
as keeper of an oyster stall at Union
Market, invested $30,000 of his profits
in Oklahoma land on which oil was dis
covered and from this investment real
ized profits which built up his fortune
to a sum estimated by members of his
family at $3,000,000, was related to a
reporter the other day by his daugh
ter, Miss Blanche Gallais, 20 years
old, of this city.
The story of Gallais’ rise to riches
is one of the most interesting of the
many oil romances in Oklahoma. His
original investment had lain dormant
for vears and he was not aware oil had |
been discovered on his land until he
received his first royalties. |
But other royalties followed in quick
success, and his wealth increased by
leaps and bounds, until it enabled him
to become the largest individual prop
erty holder in Tulsa, and led him to
erect a 10-story office building there as
a monument to the city near which he
found his wealth. ‘
Was Born in France.
Gallais was born in the Province of
Marne, France, 67 years ago. When 17
yvears old he prevailed upon an aunt to
aid him to come to the United States.
Afriving in New York penniless, he
drifted to Missouri, where he obtained
employment sawing wood for various
farmers, and saved a few dollars.
He came to St. Louis four years after
his arrival in the United States, and
purchased a small oyster stall at Union
Market. He prospered, and eventually
e was enabled to open a wholesale
branch at Twenty-first and Walnut
streets.
Just prior to the Galveston, Texas,
flood, Gallais, whose wealth then was
estimated at about $150,000, had been
induced to invest in Texas oil land.
He knew nothing of c¢il at the time,
his daughter said, but he had faith in
the property and spent $12,000 trying
to bring in a well which would de
velop into a gusher. He failed, but
retained his Texas holdings, which up
to the time of his death he declared
would prove a profitable investment,
It was following his Texas venture
that he became interested in the Okla
homa oil fields, where he invested
$30,000 in founding the +Briton-John
son Oil Company, and which later
proved a bonanza for him.
‘ Thought It Mistake.
It is told of Gallais that when he
received a check for several thousand
dollars, representing his first royalty,
he wrote to his partners to ascertain
if a mistake had not been made. Their
reply was that there was no mistake,
and that oil had been struck on their
land, was Gaillais’ first intimation that
his oil investment was to prove a
souree for millions of dollars.
About 1912, his daughter said, Gal
lais became president and sole owner
of the company.
Up umtil this time he had maintained
his home in St. Louis, but deciding that
his cil interests should have all his at
tention, sold his business here and re
moved to Tulsa.
There he built a $20,000 home, bought
two apartment houses and erected the
ten-story Gallais Building, which he
faced with Milwaukee brick and which,
he said, was erected as a tribute to the
community in which he found riches.
&,%ter, he sold this building for $500,-
Shortly after the death of his daugh
ter, Esther, about three years ago, Gal
lais’ health began to fail and he began
withdrawing from his various business
enterprises.
In the various Liberty Loan cam
paigns, his daughter said, Gallais in
vested $1,000,000 in bonds. To, his wife,
formerly Miss Mary Louise Bruno, and
to his daughter, Blanche, he gave $50,000
each in Liberty bonds on their birthday.

Society Deeeply Agitated Oven
'
Latest Fashion, Which De
crees Open Space,
—t—
LONDON, May 24.—~London society
is deeply agitated over the latest
fashion which decrees that women's
backs shall be bare, It is not merely’
a little “v” shaped exhibition of mi
lady's back, but a wide expanse all
the way down on beth sides of tha
spinal column, -
A chorus of disapproval of thig
fashion is heard from prominent so
ciety women. Says the Viscountess
Churchill:
“I do not think any lady will adopt
this fashion. 1 go to dances often
with my daughters, but I have never
seen one of them fashionable backs.
One seldo msee an arm or hack good
enough to be exposed in public. If it
were perfect one would look at them
as one regards a statue.” :
Lady Askwight sums up her opinion
thus:
~ “] dislike the fashion for two rea
sons: First, because it gives too much
of a display to the public gaze; sec
‘ond, because on most women the sash.
iinn is ugly—they are not beautiful
enongh to adopt it.”
‘ Lady Byron, dean of the Order of
the British Empire, says that evident«
ly the reason why women favor the
ultra-decollette is that they probably
think it makes them more attractive
in the eyes of men. She added:
“My experience is that even the
gayest Lothario prefers a woman wha
makes at least some pretense at mod<
esty.” :
Lady Deßamsey thinks the bare
back style is an atrocious fashion and
confesses she has seen it in the ball
room, but believes no nice women will
adopt it.
The most pointed observation comes
from Lady Price, who says:
“It is more than sad that women
should allow their young girls to
make a mark of their womanhood in
the manner this fashion entails.
“That it is done to please the men
is a fallacy., I have heard very many
young men, especially those who have
been fighting in the trenches over
seas, sayv they have no id=a where to
place their hands when dancing, as
they can touch nothing but bare flesh.
Many say that they will give up
dancing entirely as a consequence.”

Prodigals Sent Home
By Court—Fatted Calves
(By International News Service.)
MANSFIELD,OHIO, May 24.—There are
two towns in Richland County where the
fatted calf can be killed. The prodigals
will be on hand. Mayor Brunner has two
of them in his court and he knew each to
be a hard worker when at home and a
“humdinger” when away from home.
“Your home town is dry, isn’t it?”’ asked
the Mayor of the first prodigal son.
‘And yours is dry?” he nodded to the
other.
Both replied in the affirmative.
“Then they can kill the fatted calf for
vou both,” said the Mayor. "The sentence
of the court is that you go home and staw
there until after May 27, when old Ohia
goes dry.”
