WINDOWS ARE VERY HANDSOME
In Beautiful Displays OF Christmas
TFix.

It really delights one to wedge his
way along Americas crowded streets
just now and look at the handsomely
ar anged displays of holiday gifts.
All the big display windows of the
stores are in gala attire, the decorations
this year far SURPRISING anything of the
kind seen in years preceding. Within
the big establishments all is hustle, but
without confusion. It is evident to the
casual observer that for SO early in the
season the throngs of shoppers in the
stores and hurrying to and fro on the
streets are larger than those of last
year. This years Christmas trade is
expected by the owners and managers
of the large stores to surpass that of
any previous season.

Uncle Sam is Still. Mum az 20
POstoffice.

Americas hoped to number along
with her other Christmas gifts that
promised postoffice building to be
presented by Uncle Sam-or rather to
be informed regarding the location of
the splendid structure. The delay in
selecting the building site is long drawn
out, for fact, as the bids submitted
were opened on August 22nd. While
Uncle Sam never hurries in matters of
this kind it was fully expected that the
question of building location would
have been determined long ago. Of
course Americas will get the $50, 900
building-perhaps a 100000 one-in
due time, but she must wait patiently
In the meantime Congressman e. B.
Lewis, who put through Congress the
measure providing for Federal build
ing here, will investigate the cause of
delay in selecting the site for the pro-
posed structure and hurry up the mat
ter if it can be done.

EMPLOYEES ARE LOOKING ABOUT
As Time for the Annual Election is
Near.

1t is about this time that the city
employe sits up and takes notice with
the view to getting line upon his job
for another good year. And at the
same time the fellow who is out and
fain would get in looks with envy upon
the chappie who is in and does not
want to get out. The annual election
for employees in the several depart
ments does not take place until the
first meeting of the council in January
fully three weeks in the future, but
the place hunter knows there's nothing
like an early start and pipe line cinch
upon his friend, the alderman, who
handeth out the good thing. Americas
has an excellent corps of employees,
and if there is any probability what
ever of contemplated change in any
one of the departments the fact has not
bubbled to the surface.

SACRIFICED

Owing TO contemplated change
in our business early next year, it
becomes necessary that our stock be
cleared out and instead of waiting
for the usuaI late January sales we
have decided TO throw the entire
stock on the market now at a great
sacrifice This is unquestionabIy
the finest stock of Dry Goods, Cloth
ing, Ladies' TaiIor-Made Suits, Car
pets, Rugs Mattings and everything
pertaining to the business that the
people of Americus and all Southern
Georgia ever had an opportunity to
buy at such enormous reductions
right in the midst of the best part of
the season. Our object in putting on
the sale now is that the stock is so
large it could not be closed out in a
few days time after Christmas. Most
people buy the greater part of their
winter goods before Christmas. so in
order to accomplish our purpose it
must GO now.

STICKING THE VACCINE POINTS
More Pupils ofthe Schools Thus Bare
Arms.

When the school bells tap Monday
morning it is altogether probable that
ninety percent of the pupils will be
able to show vaccination card, which
will entitle them to admission to their
respective classrooms. This is the posi-
tive requirement of the Board of Ed
ucation, adopted as a precautionary
measure only, and all of the 15OO
pupils in the Americas schools must
show physicians certificate of vaccina-
ton to be allowed admission there.
Yesterday a large number of pupils
thus barred the arm to the vaccine
point. and thus will continue at their
beloved duties in the school.

PLENTY OF 'Noc' IN PROSPECT
Local Market Well Stocked With
Heniruit.

Any fear of curtailment in the usual
supply of the invigorating and soul-in-
spring eggnOg at Christmastide, due
to seeming inertness or lack of ambi-
ton henetically is wholly groundless.
The booze is always with us, and that
other cOncomitant Ingredient in the
fundamental superstructure of the
joyous compound--the eggs likewise
in plenteous evidence. Every grocery
store in Americas has bushel or two
eggs displayed, and the present fine
weather will tend to increase the
supply by promoting the industry of
the domestic dOminecker. Americas
will felicitate,-nay uxuriate-upon
eggnog at the physiological hour-Xmas
morn.

cINNERs REPORT is WITHHELD
Figures Will BE Published Mondav
Instead.

The cotton market yesterday had the
appearance of a pair of trousers bagged
at the knees and patched on the dome,
wholly without style and unattractive
to anyone. Buyers did not want cotton
even at the decline and the situation
was altogether listless. In the Ameri-
market the top notch was around 10 ID
cents, and dull even at that marked
down price. The Ginners report, ex-
pected yesterday, will not be given out
until Tuesday next and will be follow
ed on Wednesday by the monthly
Bureau report covering conditions to
December LIST. And with the prospect
of a double bureautic landslide the
cotton bull is ready to stampede to the
woods.
