Do You Open Your Mouth

Like young bird and gulp down what

Or, do you want to know something of the

you take into your stomach whether as

Greetings from Other Cities.

"On this suspicious occasion the
State organization takes pleasure in
bringing greetings from the other As
sociations of Georgia. From Atlanta,
whose hundred thousand dollar build
ing erected more than twenty years
ago, when she was but small city,
gave to outsiders a more practical
view of the Atlanta spirit than any
million dollars she has since spent
for the purpose; from Savannah,
whose hundred and twenty-five thous-
and dollar building now under con-
struction will so far exceed in attrac-
ton the Atlanta building as to COM
pei her to arise and spend about a
half million just to maintain a safe
lead for a few years; from Columbus,
with her hundred thousand dollar pal
atial equipment, built of white Geor-
gia marble, making her the possessor
of the finest Young Mems Christian
Association building of the world;
from Waycross, with her fifty thous-
