TRAFFIC IS BRISK With

Both Central and SGabOard

Railroads reflect the business OF a
city, and when these arteries of traf-
fic have all the business they can han
die it is fair to assume that mercan-
tile lines and other form of business
are prospecting likewise The Ameri-
Gus offices of both the Seaboard and
Central Railways report business I'M
usually good this fall and far in ex-
cess of the September records last
year. Not only is passenger traffic
holding up unusually well, but freight
shipments are abnormally large. AL
ready something like $4,000 bales cot
ton haze beve been shipped from Amer
icus, while vast quantities of other
freight is handled likewise. In offices
and shipping departments the work IS
