BOUGHT BIG BUILDING
WITH PENNIES
With Savings From Shining
Shoes Five Years.

Savannah, Ga, Feb. 8.-Five years
ago Charles and Louis Lamas came
to Savannah from Greece and opened
a shoeshining shop in a little hole in
the wall on Bull street near Brough-
ton
They had nothing when they begun
business, but they were thrifty and
practiced the strictest frugality. Now
they are on the verge of closing a
deal for the two-story brick building,
No. IA Broughton street east, where
NJ. WiIensky has had his shoe fac
tory for eight years. The Lamas
brothers will pay $4,000 cash for the
property.
And they saved all of this money
in cUppers and nickeIs. They sell pa
pers for one cent and shine shoes for
five cents. Theft "parlor' is conven-
ientIy situated for pedestrians on Bull
street and on Broughton and their bus
mess has always been rushing. They
have accommodations for eight or nine
customers at a time and have a knack
of getting the people in and out in 4
hurry.

SUMTFR'S TIME TO
NAME THE SENATOR
Friends Seek TO Have j.
]. Wilson Make Race.

1t is Sumter county's time to name
the senator from this senatQ6ial dis
trict.
Every three years Sumte~ has its
chance to be represented in the state
senate. The three counties of the dis
trict, Sumter, Macon and schIey take
turns at naming the representative in
the upper house of the state legisIa-
ture, 1t seems a long time between
drinks, but it rolls around eventually
and this year it is up to Sumter to
honor one Of it's leading citizen by
sending him to the Senate chamber 10
assist in law making for Georgia.
The other two counties take no
hand in the contest, their function be
ing merely to confirm whatever sum
ter does
Politicians have already begun to
discuss the possibi&ies and probab1l-
tiles along this line No one, though,
is as yet an ayowed candidate. There
may be, when the final throw down
comes, but one man in the field, or
there may be two or three contes-
tants for the prize The fact that the
senator has to be absent from home
and his business affairs for so long a
time each Of the two years acts as d
deterrent On many who would like the
honor but shrink from the work and
the sacrifice involved.
Friends of Mr. Jarrett Wilson are
desirous that he aspire TO the senator
ship. Mr. Wilson was a member of
the House four years ago, and made {
very faithful and efficient representa-
tive, giving unstinted attention to the
duties entrusted to him and ably rep
resenting the interests of the senate
rial district and of the state. Mr.
Wilson has not become a candidate as
yet, although considerable pressure is
being brought to bear upon him from
friends all over the county

WANT THE RULES
ON CORN CONTEST
Much interest is Shown
BY Sumter farmers.

Much interest is shown by many of
the farmers of Sumter county in the
corn contest for which prizes have
been offered by the business men of
this city.
Yesterday several farmers, includ-
ing two or three young men who are
eager to make a record, called at the
Times-Recorder office, expressed
their desire to enter the contest, and
inquired for the regulations that Will
govern the contest.
Unfortunately the rules have not vet
been prepared. Mr. Frank Sheffield
has volunteered to secure the assist
ance of some practical men and have
rules prepared at once.
The idea is not to surround the con-
test with any great amount of red
tape. The purpose is to have a clear
demonstration of what can actually be
done on the lands of Sumter county
when intelligent, progressive farmers
turn their minds to it. 1t is believed
it will be shown that the lands are
capable of tremendously heavy pro
duction of corn when highly fertilized
and properly worked
1t is probable that the rules will be
in readiness for publication in this
weeks Times-Recorder. Judging from
what can be learned there will be not
less than hundred farmers who will
seek to win the prizes that are Of
fered

MEETINGS AT NIGHT IN
INTEREST OF FARMERS
Two Lectures At ArmOry
This Week.

While the Itinerant Agricultural
School is in session in Americus next
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, there
viii be two night meetings These
night meetings should be of special in-
terest to the young people as .stere-
optic0n will be used to illustrate the
lectures. This will be more than an
ordinary picture show.
Country people and town people
alike will enjoy the lecture by Hon. T.
c. Hudson, Commissioner of Agricul-
ture Of Georgia, who will lecture on
the Relation of the State to the Far
mer."
How to Stop the Leaks on the
Farm by Prof. Hite is a popular talk
dealing with economic problems.
About sixty lantern slides showing
many specimens Of improved live
stock and the types from which they
originated, general farm operations
illustrating the old and the new way
and other views which will be much
liked by the general public will be
used to demonstrate this lecture.
Prof. E. l.. Worsham State Entomol-
ogist, will lecture the second evening
on some injurious insects and plant
diseases. Prof. Worsham knows bugs
and will tell some stories about them
that may cause people to stop, to
think, and to wonder why they havn't
known about them before
Modern civilization demands spec
ialized efficiency, but this cannot be
obtained without organized effort. The
country must get together, learn what
it needs and organize it's forces that
the desired results may be accom-
plished. Organization is the subject
of a special lecture by Prof Early and
Minear
Prof Minear has made this spe-
cial study and will illustrate his lee
ture with many good views.

RUMOR BASE AND UNFOUNDED.
Is CIRCULATED IN CITY
Only Three Cases Of VariOIOid in Pest
House Here.

Only Three Cases of VariOIOid in Pest
House Here.
Exaggerated reports were circulated
about the city yesterday to the effect
that number of new cases of vario-
loid had been discovered here and a
half dozen additional patients, includ-
ing several employees of the carnival
company, sent to the pest house
The statement in it's entirely, is
unqualifiedly false, without one word
of truth in it.
How people will deliberately circu-
late such a base and needless-not to
say injurious falsehood, is hard to
understand
Chief of Police Barrow was seen re-
garding the damaging report in cir
culation. He stated emphatically that
not a single memner Of the carnival
company had been carried to the pest
house, nor was there a single case of
such illness in the company.
In fact, Chief Barrow stated there
has not been a new case carried there
since last Friday.
At that time there were four or five
negro patients in the pest house, and
these are positively the only ones that
have been carried there this year. The
varioloid. existing in Americus is
confined wholly to negro sections
where they refused to be vaccinated
The only white patient in Americus
a Seaboard railway employe residing
out near the shops, contracted the di-
sease in aclther city, having never
been vaccinated.

proposed to run the road would be
found enthusiastic and willing to CO.
operate to as great an extent as possi-
bIe
Mr.. A. w. Smith stated that from
what he knew and learned of the coun-
try it was proposed to traverse the
road would open up a fine section and
prove a business developer.
Mr. w w. Lambden of Waycross, be
lieved that if Americus and Ashbuln
were connected by the proposed road
that the matter of extending the road
on to the sea via Waycross would be
quite easy, several small roads being
in existence that could be connected
up. He outlined several routes that
were open from Ocilla to Waycross
and thence to St. Mary, a great ma
tural sea port with the distance large
ly covered by existing roads.
Mr.. A. N. Walker suggested that
steps be taken to raise funds for
survey. Others endorsed this.
Mr. G. Morgan Eldridge believed
that the cost of building from here 20
the river would be small per mile. Mr
Belts gave his views on the country
and the cost of a road. He believed
that exclusive of the bridge a road
could be built in readiness for opera
| tion from Americus to Ashburn at
| $1,000 "a mile.
Mr. Evans stated that if the road
were built from Americus to Ashburn
it was possible that the interest cf
the A. B. & A might be aroused in
| extending it to Savannah.
After considerable further discus
! sion it was decided to have commit
| tees appointed representing the sever
! al towns to prepare an organization,
/ secure a charter, have a preliminary
J survey made etc. The Americus Board
; of Trade appointed Messrs. G. Morgan
| Eldridge Lee Allen and Crawford
Wheatley. as its committee. These
with the representatives from Oak
! field, Doles, Irwinville and a commit
tee o fthe Ashburn delegation then met
for a further discussion.

Visitors In Earnest.

From what the visitors stated there
was no doubt of their intention to
build from Irwinville to Ashburn. That
seemed to have been finally decided
upon by them. From Ashburn to Amer
icus the project remains to be devel-
opsd.
The representative of Oakfeld and
Doles, which would be on the line o.
the proposed road from Ashburn to
Americus explained that consid-
cradle road bed existed on the
proposed line between Oakfield
and Ashburn, that the country
would speedily develop, and that the
opportunities for a profitable freight
business were good. Doles lies mid
way between Cordele and Albany, s
miles from the Albany Northern road.
President Lanier thought that if
each community look the matter up,
get the rights of way and showed what
it was willing to subscribe that the
road could probably be built.
