‘RED AND WHITE’
MAKES BRILLIANT
DEBUT YESTERDAY
GLYNN ACADEMY PUBLICATION
IS ACCORDED PRAISE
BY CRITICS
The annual edition of “The Red
and White’’ published by the students
of Glynn Academy has just been is¬
sued from the press and has been pro¬
nounced ty critics one. of the most
complete and attractive puKi: iti mt
ever comp led by the boys uni girls
of this *n-1’i C m,
“The Red and White” is comprehen¬
sive in every detail, each department
of Glynn Academy being splendidly
presented and portrayed by those pu¬
pils who were assigned to the task.
The personnel.of the staff is made up
of the following students of the acad¬
emy Hloward heavy, editor-in-chief;
Ben White, business manager; Ber¬
nard Nightengale, assistant business
manager; associate editors, local, Si¬
byl Bourne; humorous, May Smith;
literary, Fred Abralms; athletic, John
Gilbert.
The magazine covers twelve pages,
the contents of which demonstrate the
aptitude of the .pupils in their re¬
spective roles. The leading editorial,
“Co-operation is Essential” is a
strong exposition of the necessity of
working together in educational as
w.ell as municipal affairs. It is a
strong appeal to sustain the efforts of
Glynn Academy to make the “Red
and White” the success it expects
from the hands of the people of
Brunswick.
The publication contains a number
of admirably written stories, among
the contributors being Fannie Aiken,
Lottimay Bunkley, Fred Abrams,
Harry E. Hensel, and a resume of the
athletic activities of the Glynn Acad¬
emy, compiled by members of the
f ootball t ; i of fh present year. In
this connection it might be stated that
the Glynn High team, during the 1923
season, scor.-d 134 points against their
opponent.' .. bile only forty-five were
registered must th . , thirty-eight
of which w. re made by the Benedic
j tine College, admittedly of Savanvth, superior a to team that col¬
lege was any
team in this section of the state.
. “Red and White” contains a num
i her of attractive advertisements from
! I local merchants and is altogther one
of the most creditable magazines ever
i issued by the students of Glynn Acad
I emy.

THE BRUNSWICK NEWS
GOLD BANDS TO
MARK SENIORITY
SERVICE TO CITY
OFFICERS TO BE
BY SPECIAL INSIGNIA
ON UNIFORMS
Seniority in the length of
terms of service among members of
the police and fire, departments will
be designated by a special insignia on
the regulation uniforms by virtue of
an order issued yesterday by City
M mager G. L. Rinkliff to Chief J. H.
Harrison, of the fire department, and
Chief J. E. Register, of the police de¬
partment.
Believing that there should be some
method of distinguishing' those who
have years of service to their credit
in the employment of the city, the
city manager has made the order ef¬
fective January 1, 1924.
On that date, each member of eith¬
er of the departments who has serv¬
ed for two or more years, but less
than five years, will be entitled to
wear on the cuff of his uniform, a nar¬
row azure band. Five years of ser¬
vice will be denoted by a thin gold
band, while the men who have com¬
pleted ten years in the service will
be entitled to wear a broader gold
band.
For each ten years of completed
service in addition to the first ten
years, an additional ten year gold
band will be added.
The longest term of service to the
credit of anyone in either depart¬
ment belongs to Chief Harrison of the
fire department, who has in the last
37 years worked his way up from fire¬
man to chief of the department. Chief
Harrison will be entitled to wear the
three ten-year insignia, and in three
years more will have an additional
band to his credit.
“One of the most unfortunate
things civic affairs in this country is
the fact that too many citizens fail to
realize the debt of gratitude and re¬
spect due to men who have served
the municipalities long and faithful¬
ly,” said City Manager Rinkliff yes¬
terday i ,! discussing the matter. “We
ought to be just as ready, to say the
least, to accord to a faithful public
servant, the commendation due him, j
as we are to criticise the unfaithful
one. We fail in our duty as citizens,
if we do the latter without doing the
former.
“I believe that a man who serves
long and iwell should have some de¬
gree of recognition for his faithful¬
ness. Fortunately, all over the coun¬
try, there is more of a disposition to
do this than ever before. The doing
of this in the proper degree takes
years of steady planning in the af¬
fairs of a city, and usually only a lit¬
tle bit can be done at a time. How¬
ever, when a step can be taken, I am
in favor of taking it.”
The new concrete bridge in the
boulevard, at Atlantic avenue, will be
ready for traffic during the latter part
of this week, the necessary time hav¬
ing elapsed to permit the proper cur¬
ing of the floor slab. The approaches
have been filled, and only a little ad¬
ditional work will he required to make
everything ready for traffic.
It is expected that at the meeting
of the city r oimrjj'ssSon tomorrow 1 ,
consideration will be given to the bud¬
get for 1924. It is the hope of the
city commissioners, and the city man¬
ager to have everything worked out
in order that the books may be opened
on January first, with no further de
tails to be adjusted.
GLYNN ACADEMY GIRLS
DEFEAT ST. MARY'S BY
THE SCORE OF 32 TO 19
giHfc*?' girls invaded
The Glynn Academy
the former capital of Camden county
yesterday and decisively defeated the
St. Mary’s High school girls in a bas¬
ketball game by a score of thirty-two
to nineteen.
A number of devotees of the game
accompanied the Glynn girls to St.
Mary’s and witnessed the game,
which is said to have attracted a large
number of spectators from the sur¬
rounding villages. The contest was
exciting froim start to finish, the Cam¬
den girls playing a brilliant game alll
the way through. Helen Busk was
the star and received the plaudits of
the spectators cn both sides by her
brilliant performance. Each member
of the Glynn Academy gave a good
account of themselves, as the score
show's. They returned home last
night delighted with their pilgrimage
to St. Mary’s, where they were roy¬
ally entertained.
LLOYD GEORGE COMMENDS
INSURANCE
Lloyd George says: “The willing¬
ness to take risks is in the great mer¬
chant or capitalist a virtue.. It is to
him what courage is to a soldier, or
imagination to u poet. But the will¬
ingness to take risks is in the wage
earner a weakness—yes, even a vice.
The contrary of the vice of gambling
is the virtue of thrift, and the system
of life insurance has given the thrifty
man his opportunity.”
The saying of this great statesman
is worth thought of every thinking
and prudertl individual, who is the
subject of Life Insurance.

SUPREME COURT
SUSTAINS VERDICT
IN VOAK CASE
SISTER OF MRS. ADA DOER
FLINGER WINS WILL CASE
IN HIGH COURT
A decision, in whicfli is involved a
valuable piece of Newcastle street
property, as well as other valuable
personal property, etc.', was handed
down by the supreme court of Geor¬
gia yesterday in the case of N. E.
Gilliean and Mr. Houseman by R. D.
Ida E. Voak.
The case in question grows out of
fight over the will of the late Mrs.
Ada Doerflinger, which was stub¬
bornly fought out in the Glynn su¬
perior court a year ago, when the will
was contested. Mrs. Doerflinger in
her will left all of her property, in¬
cluding the store on Newcastle street
nciw occupied by N. E. Gilliean, to Mr.
Gilliean, Mrs. Houseman and the lit¬
tle daughter of Mr. Gill'ican. Mrs.
Voak, a sister of Mrs. -Doerflinger and
on jy living-relative, contested the 1
vv ;u on t) le ground that undue infill
ence was brought to bear upon Mrs.)
Doerflinger in the drawing of the will.
The case was stubbornly fought out
in the Glynn superior court, and re¬
sulted in a verdict in favor of Mrs.
Voak. The case was then carried to
the supreme court and was argued
some time ago, and in the decision
handed down yesterday the verdict of
the lower court was sustained. This !
means and all that of the the other Newcastle property street of store Mrs. j j
Doerflinger will go to her ssiter, Mrs. i
Voak.
In the trial and before the su¬
preme court, Mrs. Voak was repre¬
sented by Conyers & Wilcox, and Mr.
Gilliean and Mrs. Houseman by R. D.
Meader and E. C. Butts.

BUILDING BIG BUSINESS
ON STRICTLY CASH BASIS
The house of W. A. O’Quinn &
Company, of this city, is gradually
building up a substantial business on
the theory that business ought to be
done on a cash basis.
Man-' merchants have tried the
plan and have not been very success¬
ful with it. Not so with the O’Quinn
firm. When the company came to;
Brunswick a few years ago, it an- !
nounced that it was going to do bus- j
iness, just a little differently from ; |
what it is generally done in the city
and they announced as a. cardinal j
principle that it would be a cash;
house. They figured it out that the
cost of credit and books and coffee-1
1 tors, etc., would be returned to the 1
