SATURDAY, OCTOBER 31. $200,000 S WEEK GOES AH FROM AUGUSTA “Live at Home Week” Starts November 14th and Move ment Will Begin Jo Keep An gusta Money in Augusta. Few Ausustans know, or have ever thought, about the vast amount of money that is sent away from he o each week to purchase articles that could Just as well be purchased at home. It is estimated that $200,000 foes away from Augusta each week for articles of food, clothing and other things which could be kept right here in Augusta. This makes the enormous totai ot $10,400,000 per year that is spont by Augusta people with concerns whose profits go tc enrich peoplo in other portions of the country For instance, Augusta people will buy hay, grain and other foodstuffs from the West, never stopping to con sider that these articles can be pur chased just as well at home. Right here in Richmond county no better hay Is raised anywhere in the country, no better oats, and nowhere can t\ere be found better pork, beef and other fresh meats than come from hogs and cows in this section of Georgia and South Carolina. Augusta dry goods merchants, tail ors, clothiers, dressmakers, etc., can furnish just as good articles as can be found anywhere and yet it is a sad reality that many Augusta people be lieve that anything they buy that comet from a distance is better than what they get at home. An Augusta “live at home week" starts on November 14th and during this week the people of this city will start a movement to live at home, trade at home, buy at home, pay at home, order at home, made at home, raised at hoe and help at home. Let Augusta people get the habit of living at home and keeping Augusta money at home. HIGHER COURT RULES IN THE G. 8 F. EASE Decision of U. S. Judge Shep pard Affirmed-- Was Ques tion of Employees’ Wages. There is a good deal of interest in the announcement received in Augusta last night from New Orleans to the ef fect that the decision of United States Wm. B. Sheppard, of the South- of Georgia, in the matter *of arbitration of wages in the case of the Georgia & Florida Railway . Com pany versus the Brotherhood of Loco niotive Engineers and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen had been affirmed by the United States circuit court of appeals. The trainmen asked for an increase in wages of about 22 per cent. They were awardca, by the report of the majority of the board of arbitrators, an increase of betwen 10 and lz per cent. The case was argued before Judge Sheppard in Augusta several months ago and his honor held that the award of the arbitrators could not be set aside. It was then taken to the higher court. The ruling of the higher court in this case is of general importance where controversies between employers and employees are concerned, in that the ar bitrators selected under the United States law’ are limited in their findings and recommendations to questions spe cifically submitted, or matters pertain ing directly to the questions invol^d. Judge H. C. Roney represented the trainmen and Mr W. H. Barrett, the railway. NO SESSIONS Of THE SYNOD THIS EVENING Routine Business Transacted Today---Interesting Services at Church on Sunday. There will be no session of tho Evangelical Lutheran Synod this eve ning. Today the sessions were devoted pri marily to the transaction of routine business, which consumed most of tho time yesterday.

Modjeska Program The Modjeska Theatre is ideally lo cated, right In the heart of the city, convenient in every sense of the word. One can go shopping, then having an hour or so to '‘kill," drop in this com modious pleasure house and while away the spare time In a pleasant and interesting manner. The management of this theatre Is especially interested in the entertain ment and comfort of each individual patron and Is doing all that can be done to please. The net result so far Is: the patronage is of the best and good enough to please said manage ment. The Mutual films are shown In addition to to the regular program —that la one of the secrets as to why Modjeskaites are so pleased. Showing Today and Evening. "The Ex-Convict,” a Kalem produc tion, shown In two parts, Is one of the head-liners flashed on the screen to day and evening. "Jimmie,” produced by the Dominoe people, is also a cred itable event on the program. Then last, but not least, comes the final film, a Komic, "Bill Spoils a Vaca tion.” This picture comes Just in the "nick of time." After the attention of the patrons have been held on tho previous plays—they extending sym pathy to their favorite hero and hate to the "vlllian" —all their pent up laughter and amusement faculties are brought into play by the wiles of “Bill” (who spoiled hi? vacation) and the gen eral result is that and every one has exercised his and her "unseen” muscles of the brain In a way that makes all jolly. Keystone Films Popular. The Keystone films are growing to be the most popular features of the Modjeska. An interesting fact In re gard to this production is that out of every 68 movie theatres in New York city —(where the best film, productions are shown) —an average of only five is not shown. That Is only an example of what the public likes. Good pictures are shown every day at the Modjeska, In fact the best that can be obtained for the "coin." The prices are right and then again the accommodations! Isn't that enough to make fame for the Modjeska in It self. If you want an enjoyable hour or so, why drop in—you will need no sec ond invitation HOTEL ARRIVALS Hcfhrau Hotel. —C. B. Boland, Savan nah, Ga.; B. F. Kindrick, Ga.; T. W. Duke, C. T.
