The Hartwell, Ga, Sun "The celebra-
tion Of the completion of the Savannah
Valley Railroad at Anderson was grand
affair, and is highly spoken of by the Wis.
iting Hartwellites. A dream of years be-
fore the war has been fulfilled. Now if
Anderson had a Road to Atlanta on an
airline by Hartwell and Athens with a
northern extension, and the Blue Ridge
completed, she would take her position
among the great railroad centres Of the
South, and possibly in the future Hart
we'll would be her across-the river subur-
ban town-a consummation devoutly to
be wished"
That young man is certainly right who
asserts that there is nothing in the world
that better shows the tendency of man
kind to run in rut than the architecture
of the modern shirt. For years mems
vests have been buttoned almost up to the
chin, and little piece of shirt front that
would be left exposed has been covered
by necktie. And yet men go on wear
ing shirts with fronts down to the waist,
starched aud ironed till they're as stiff as
boiler plate, and they pay every week
for getting two or three of these things
carefully polished. a man might as we'll
have the back of his vest laundried every
week.
