ALWAYS AWAKENS
MUCH ADMIRATION
Visitors Praise Beauty Of The
Bank of Commerce.

Many are the compliments that are
daily paid to the new home of the
generally acknowledged to be the
Bank of Commerce. Visitors to the
city, passing the bank are inevitably
attracted by the handsome lobby and
many enter to take a view of what is
generally acknowledged to be the
handsomest banking quarters in South
Georgia.
Travelling man who cover an exten-
sive territory in Georgia, Florida and
Alabama state that there is no bank
ing room in all the district traversed
by them that compares in lichness
with the new home of the Americus
institution. The general effect on en-
tering always alwakens an expression
of admiration from visitors ad it is
indisputable that this banking room
has become another highly effective
advertisement of the progressive spirit
that marks Americus today
Everything is now completed at the
new home and the officers of the bank
have become accustomed to their beau
tiful surroundings. Tine Times-Re-
corder in a short time will present a
view of the exterior and another
the interior with a sketch of the de-
velo9ment of this strong financial in
stitution.

Judge Crisp succeeded Mr.. Kinds in
this position. Mr. Kinds served under

grade of goods for furniture that is
be-Entiful and durable, and for china,
cut glass, lamps, vases, brass goods
and other articles that are of high

AMERICUS is HAVING A
RUSH Of XMAS TRADE
Holiday Buying is Going in
Good Style.

Americus merchants had their in
ming with the holiday buyer yesterday
as the genial sunshine following TIVE
days of cold and wretched weather
brought the crowds again to the bar
gain counters. Every town an this To-
cality was well represented in the hoSt
of busy people here yesterday
The merchants bought heavily for
this Christmas season, believing that
it was going to be one of the best
they have ever had and their expecta-
tions are being realized
In addition to the novelties that
have been shown before, there are
many new ones that attract, and the
prices this year are one of the most
attractive features. If those making
purchases can not find what they want
at one place they can at another, for
their is no reason for any one to be
dissatisfied.
TIE Christmas season makes every
one want to give something, it mat
ters not how limited their means may
be- The most miserly man finds him
self warmed up to the point of wanting
to make some one happy when Christ
mas comes, and by a judicious sdleC-
ton, one can do whole lot of buying
at small cost.
The merchants are having a tremen-
dous big trade in advance and it is
thought that the final days before the
holidays begin will find the usual rush.
lit is believed by many that the trade
this year will be larger than it has
ever been.

Judge Crisp himself did not take the
initiative and has made no effort in the
direction of securing the honorable
post mentioned in the dispatch In
TACT the only thing Judge Crisp him.
self knows about the movement was
contained in a letter received a few
days ago from Congressman Brrantley,
of the Eleventh District, asking him if
he would accept the position if the
Georgia delegation and other friends
in the House secured a tender of it
from the next Speaker of that body.
Judge Crisp had not given a positive
reply, but had requested further in
formation, as such a change, of course,
would be matter of great concern
and one that would require careful
consideration, involving, as it would,
the resignation of his position as Judge
of the City Court here and the removal
TO Washington during a considerable
part of the next two years, if not for a
longer period in the event of a contin-
uance of Democratic control of the
House, which is highly probable.
The duties of the position would not
be new to Judge Crisp and he would
be amply qualified to fill them in a
matter satisfactory to the Speaker. who
will doubtless be Hon Champ Clark.
OF Missouri, and to the House member
ship as whole. For four years Judge
Crisp held this post under his father.
the late Speaker Crisp. This gave him
thorough acquaintance with the rules
of the House, to be modified, TO
some extent with the incoming of the
next Congress, and made him an expert
in the parliamentary procedure gov
erning that, the most important delib
erative body in the world. His ex
perience then would stand him i'm good
stead now, and it would take but a very
little brushing UP ito make an ideal
Aouse parliamentarian out OF the Amer
lcus man. Judge Crisp is cool headed
and while filling the position befor,
gave signal evidence of the fact that ho
not only thoroughly understands the
procedure governing the House ses
slons but is quick to apply the rulings
to the exigemcies of the moment. His
father, Speaker Crisp was noted as a
calm, authoritative presiding Officer,
and under his training, and by a close
study of the general parliamentary
law as we'll as the specific rules of the
House, the son became an accepted an
thority
In addition to acting as a parliam-
entary adviser to the Speaker the posi-
ton that may be rendered Judge Crisp
carries with it the important duty Of
referring bills to their appropriate
committees unless this has been change
ed since Judge Crisp held the position
before. This requires an exact knowl-
edge of the division of the work of tho
House among the committees and is q
very important feature of the work the
position entails
The position is now said to carry
with it salary of $4,000. Under
Speaker Crisp it paid but 81, 800. Judge
Crisp was not prepared yesterday to
say that he would accept the position
If rendered him, as now seems highly
probable, but it is believed that he
would do so if the salary has been in
creased to the extent mentioned, as the
expenses of living in Washington have
grown enormously since his fathers
administration and the old salary

its real success. The voices were
much better than are usually heard in

sort that brings your foot to a pat
