slim. but in the afternoon the boats were
packed and the irrepressible white
dresses. stockings and shoes were much
in evidence with the day an appropriate
one for the wearing of heavy clothing,
to cay the least.
Traffic over the trolley lines was fairly
strong, although the suburban routes had
a big shrinkage in their usual Sunday
business. The lines connecting with
Roger Williams park. Hunts Mills and
Rhodes -on-the- Pawtuxet suffered less
from the weather conditions.
The excursion OF the JOY liner Larch-
mont had a good crowd aboard when the
boat sailed for Cottage city az $3.50 o'clock
Keith's theatre orchestra furnished music
and the trip proved pleasant one after
the storm had cleared.
The Providence line excursion 10 New

Mules and Horses

Mr.. r. V. Handley received his
first car load, of mules and horses
last week.
Mr.. Handley is an experienced
stockman and knows good mule
or horse at sight. He expects to
push the business for all it is
worth this season. He stated to
the Enterprise that he found the
prices tremendously high in the
market from which he has just
returned, but knowing that the
people must have them, he pur-
chased a car load of fine horses
and mules.
He states that he will keep on
hand, all the season, fine lot OF
stock athis large stables on South
Grant ST., the Renfroe & Boyd
stables. The outlook is that Fitz-
gerald will be one of the best stock
markets in South Georgia the
coming season.

An Improved Sash Balance.

Through the courtesy of Uncle
Charley Launer, the inventor,
an Enterprise representative
was permitted yesterday to in
spect the model of an unique
device which he has just patent
ed.
It is an improved sash balance,
which operates both sash with
one weight instead of four as IS
com monty used. Another small
weight on the opposite side OF
the frame balances half-sash
screen and allows of its being
adjusted to any position in the
frame. The weight cords are
run through screw-eyes, instead
of over pulleys, and work much
more readily besides being less
liable to get out of adjustment.
By this simple but effective ar
rangement a window can be fit
ted with cords and weights for
about half the usual cost, besides
being superior to the old method
in every respect.
Another feature of the model
that will be appreciated by house
wives who are annoyed by flap
ping blinds whenever the upper
sash is lowered, is contrivance
which permits the blind to be
raised and lowered at will.
Mr.. Launer has had tempt
ing offer for his patent rights,
but has so much faith in the
value of his invention that he
declined to sell, and we believe
he exercised good judgment IN
doing so, as no doubt his pat
emit will be universally adopted
