If no laws passed until there general public de-

Is bill right in principle is there public necessity for it, is
it concentrate of wisdom?
If answered in the affirmative, vote yes on the bill

had our crib been a circus van, our

BETTER TROLLEY
SERVICE PROMISED
Public Service Puts Additional
Cars on Six Lines for
Xmas Rush.

Additional trolley service was started
today on the Broad. Orange, south Or
ange. Springfield, Kearny n Bloom
Held lines. by the Public Service Rail
way Company, for the accommodation
of the Christmas shoppers. This means
that the regular rush-hour service is
to be started earlier in the afternoon.
Next week when the stores remain
open in the evening the additional serv-
ice will be continued in the evening
also. A new schedule is in effect for
the Mount Prospect line, reducing the
Roadway during the morning rush.
Nearly all other lines already have
additional service.
With the announcement of the added
service the following statement was
sent out to all motormen and conduc-
tors today by Newton w. Bolen. super
1ntendent of transportation of the Pub
lie Service lines.
To Az Employees:
The Christmas season, with its
throngs of hurrying shoppers, is with
us again.
This ean that our responsibilities
have been added to, for the time being.
1t means. also, that more than the
usual care must be exercised by con-
ductors, motornsen and others engaged
in the operation of our cars. to the end
that accidents shall be avoided and
service kept up to the highest possible
efficiency.
Besides it's spirit of j%oyousness and
goodwill, the Christmas season has its
petty annoyances, it's temporary trials
and its causes of irritation.
These latter are the things we want
to avoid. Public Service wants it's men
to be helpful to it's patrons. Helpful
at all times, and especially SO when
conditions are not normal.
Be courteous to all passengers. young
and Did.
Do not object to shoppers carrying
bundles, but assist those who need as
sistance in boarding or leaving the
cars.
Have a care for the comfort of your
passengers. See that cars are kept
properly heated and ventilated.
Do not fail to call out the names of
the principal stores, streets and sta
tons. Remember no one likes to be
carried past his destination.
Motormen should be extra careful in
operating their cars in the congested
districts. They can assist. the conduc-
tors by politely requesting passengers
to to the front of the cars.
l feel certain that if the car crews
will observe the foregoing suggestions
their iabors will be lightened, the pub
lie will be better satisfied, and we all
viii be doing our part toward making
the holiday reason more pleasant for
everybody.

LAND NEAR STATESB0RO
SHOWS MUCH ACTIVITY

STATESBORo. Ca. Oct. 1.-two i'm
portant real estate deals were made
here during the past week. one OF
which was Mr.. H. B. Franklin sold his
farm OF one hundred and twenty-nine
acres to Mr.. H. H. Hollingsworth. The
property lies about seven miles north
east OF town. We understand the price
paid was about sixty dollars per acre.
The deal was made through the real
estate agency OF Fields and Chance.
The other deal was that of Mrs w. c.
Corley to Mr.. J. T. Jones, on a tract
OF land containing two hundred and
eight acres near Register The price
per acre OF this land was about forty
dollars per acre. This deal was also
made through Messrs. Fields and
Chance.
The high water record for the past
ages was reached In Statesboro in re-
gard to real estate values on yesterday
when several trades were bid of at ad-
ministrator's sale at the highest prices
ever known for farm lands located as
far from town as these lands were.
The c. J. Martin place containing
three hundred acres in the Bay district,
was bid in by Mr.. ID. z. DeLoach at
about sixteen thousand dollars. and the
Jas. Beasley lands in the same neigh
brohood. brought from fifty to seventy
six dollars per acre. The home place
OF the Davis farm was bid in by Mr..
Joseph Davis at $1,000 per acre. The
Proctor lands were withdrawn from
sale by reason of the fact that the other
sales had monopolized the sale hours
and the most of the buyers had gone
away when this property was placed
on the block in the afternoon.
