merce, connected with the Georgia

that tiie school will be much larger
in enrollment than last year. W. S.
Kell is acting director of the School
of Commerce and will have charge
of its affairs for the corning term. The
course has been somewhat broadened,
and the “rough edges” have been
worn away by a year’s experience in
the management of such a school,
which in the South at least is more
or less untried.

Decision Favors the Oity m
Atlanta. —An important decision was
handed down by Judge George L. Bell
of the superior court. Judge Beil dis¬
solved a temporary injunction, which
had restrained the city from proceed¬
ing with the collection of $459.90 fi. fa.
against the Georgia railway and elec¬
tric company, which had been issued
to collect an assessment tax for the
laying of a sewer on the Flat Shoals
road. The trolley company resisted
the payment of the assessment on the
ground that it holds only a 30-foot right
of way on the street;' that a sewer
could be of no possible value to it
as all of its land was used for tiie
operating of the oars; and that the
assessment was in violation of the
company’s constitutional rights.

the chamber’s work and his advance¬
ment in this work has been steady,
in advancing him the directors of the
organization announce that they are
following both Mr. Cooper's recommen¬ their
dation ami the dictates or own
best judgment.
Atlantiart in German Army
Atlanta.—Leaving America with tiie
anticipation of returning with a for¬
tune, his share of his death father’s
estate, Karl Von Lawrenze, conductor
of the orchestra at a local hotel, was
conscripted immediately upon his ar¬
rival in Berlin, Germany, equipped
with uniform and gun and sent to the
firing line of the German forces. Last
reports from him were received from
the battle line. He has never even
had a chanee to view the estate he
inherited, let alone acquire his share—
$25,000 or more—all on account of his
failure to obtain naturalization papers.
Von Lawrenze is a native German by
birth. He has been in America nine
years. Most of this time lias been
spent in Atlanta,

There exists now a new, compelling
reason for buying Goodyear tires. It re¬
sults from War conditions.
These leading tires—built of extra-fine
rubber, in the same way as always—are
selling today at June prices.
You will find today a very wide difference
between most tire prices and Goodyears.
Due to Quick Action
Early in August—when war began—the
world’s rubber markets seemed closed t* us.
Rubber prices doubled almost over night.
Men could see no way to pay for rubber
abroad, and no way to bring it in. We, like
others—in that panic—were forced to higher
prices. But we have since gone back to prices
we charged before the war, and this is how
we did it:
We had men in London and Singapore when
the war broke out. The larger part of the
World’s rubber supply comes through there.
We cabled them to buy up the pick of the rub¬
ber. They bought—before the advance—1,500,
000 pounds of the finest rubber there.
Nearly all this is now on the way to us.
And it means practically all of the extra-grade
rubber obtainable abroad.
Today we have our own men in Colombo,
Singapore and Para. Those are the world's
chief sources of rubber. So we are pretty well
assured of a constant supply, and our pick of
the best that’s produced.
We were first on the ground. We were quick¬
s' est in action. As a result, wegbal! M soon have in

New York—James A. Batten, the

who was one of the American refugees

been declared. With Mrs. Batten he
left Carlsbad on August 2 and traveled
via Herbesthal and Liege, where they
arrived just as hostilities had begun.
"We left Carlsbad for Nuremhurg by

know the war had broken out then, as
no news of the situation was given
out in Carlsbad.

MUST KNOW HUMAN NATURE
Functions of the' Novelist Are of the
Highest Order, According to Sir
Gilbert Parker. ,
Although Sir Gilbert Parker has en¬
joyed a popular vogue such as is al¬
most never granted to a serious nov¬
elist, there are few writers in the
world who take a loftier view of the
writer’s functions than does Parker.
In a recent article at the time of
the issue of his new novel, “You Nev¬
storage an almost record supply of this extra
grade of rubber.
And we paid about June prices.
Now Inferior Grades Cost Double
About the only crude rubber available now
for many makers is inferior. In ordinary times,
the best tire makers refuse it. Much of it had
been rejected. But that “off rubber” now sells
for much more than we paid for the best.
The results are these:
Tire prices in general are far in advance of
Goodyears. And many tire makers, stiort of
supplies, will be forced to use second-grade
rubber.
Be Careful Now
In Goodyears we pledge you the same grade
tire as always. And that grade won for Good
years the top place in Tiredom—the largest sale
in the world.
And, for the time being, our prices are the
same as before the war. We shall try to keep
them there.
We accept no excessive orders, but dealers
will be kept supplied. And we charge them,
until further notice, only ante-bellum prices.
That means that Goodyears—the best
tires Built—are selling way below other tires.
