 Alabama did not lay much track in 1911, but it is estimated that fully 396 miles will be laid in 1912, and this will keep our 10 year average good.

Activity in the Religious World

One frequently hears the twentieth century spoken of in church circles as century of unbelief This is un- occasionally a skeptical age, but in what age have there not been scep- tics and even atheists? Scholars whose pride of opinion tends to lessen their attachment to long established doctrines have always been numerous. The advance of learning has strengthened orthodoxy in some quar- ters and weakened it in others. The sst9ptisn ac naa 2a and 4,od- raae 1ici ia eonae ned t ar tbe p elir l.

ON REVISION
Democrats Get to Work When

Washington, February 14.-Regard-
less OF whether an extra session OF
congress is called, the new Democratic
ways and means committee Of the
house will begin its preparations for
the revision Of the Payne-Aldrich tn
riff law on March ), the day after the
present session adjourns.
The initial step toward revision has
been determined upon by the commit
tee. To this committee has been lett
tae decision as to the kind OF revision
that would be undertaken, and it WIS
decided to bring in separate schedules.
To each of the fourteen members one
schedule has been allotted. Each mem
Der. therefore will have specially.
The schedules already selected for ac-
ton include the following Wool, cot
ton, food, steel, silks, chemicals, pa
Der and wood pulp and agricultural
implements

make a special study of it, preparing d
report for the benefit of united action.
Unless it can be shown that new con-
ddtions have arisen since the hearings

tariff board goes through, the mem
bers of that board will be called on t,

WELDON here AFTER
Big LAND TRACT
Atlanta Promoter to Look Over
Sumter County Fields

Frank Weldon, of Atlanta, one of the
best known real estate men in the
South, arrived in Americas YESTERDAY
afternoon. Mr., Weldon comes here
with a commission to purchase q
large tract of land in Southwest Geor-
gia, and with this as his mission, will
make a careful inspection OF several
Sumter county properties of five
thousand acres or more.
J In addition to being a large real es-
tate operator and having brought large
sums of money from the East and West
for the development of the South, Mr..
Weldon has been very prominently
identified with many of Georgia's most
successful undertakings, and has won
national fame as path finder and dis
ciple of the good roads gospel. Mr..
Weldon was the originator of the
New York to Atlanta highway. He W Is
the father and pathfinder of the round
the-state tour under the auspices of the
Atlanta Constitution and Americus
T:mes-Recorder, which gave this
section so much valuable publicity.
From the very inception of the good
roads movement in the South, Mr.. We'll
don has been a conspicuous figure and
in all probability, the result of his
work has sent thousands of motorists
over the Americas route and is coG,
stantly advising all tourists to take
this great highway in motoring to
South Georgia and Florida.
"Americus and Sumter county," said
Mr. Weldon, have been so much in
the public eye Of late that the demand
for property in this section is unpre-
cedented. This is not only my expert
ence, but many of my Atlanta asso-
ciates tell me the same thing. Capt.
tai is seeking farm lands as never be-
fore and progress, enterprise and mod
ern methods naturally attract invest
ment money ahead of all others
81 doubt if the people who are here
IN the ground floor can appreciate
what a tremendous asset Sumter coun-
ty roads really are. 1t has been my
privilege to make thousands of miles
over Southern roads and, in the face
of this wide experience, | do not hesi-
tate to say that the roads of this i'm
mediate section are the finest in the
South. One must actually experience
some of the almost impossible roads
in some sections to fully appreciate
the privilege of motoring in Sumter
county. The impressions that these
highways make on every tourist are
lasting ones and they go forth spread
ing the glad tidings in every direction
u! til it is no wonder that your sales
down here are breaking all records
Why | came down here particularly
to see one piece of property, only to
find that it had been sold, and ! am
confident that it was not listed for a
J eriod of more than two weeks. There
IS no doubt about it that the tide Of
the investment world is setting South
ward and l am quite sincere when
II say that, in my opinion, the good
roads. modern methods and wonderful
development of this particular section
show the high water mark of the
Snuthward movement

the tailoring is beyond reproach.
Here's suit of light tan, basket weave

beauty. The price is $50.
