DRY OF Joel Chandler Harris For to-
day is "Uncle Remus'" birthday, anG
"Cnele Remus" is as vivid a character
and as beloved figure as he was when
his first quaint folklore story was
penned.
In every school in Atlanta there will
be an hour devoted to the memory OF
the famous Albanian who made the old
black sage live. The children will be
told of the beauties of the life OF the
author Of these world noted stories
while extracts from his most charming
tales will be read.
Women's Clubs Pay Tribute.
Women's clubs Of Atlanta also will
make official recognition Of the occa-
sion and all Of them have arranged
special "Uncle Remus' programs. The
Uncle Remus Memorial association
founded 10 perpetuate the memory OF
Mr.. Harris by the purchase Of his old

COUNTY To ADOPT
RIGID METHODS
IN CITY WORK
Board Tires Of Having Paving
Torn Up for Sewers and
Track Changes.

Public improvements in Atlanta Will
be subjected to an entirely new work.
ing plan as a result Of the reorganiza-
ton OF city and county governments
on January !, according TO a majority
Of members of the Fulton commission.
Aware that the city and county have
been playing at cross purposes and
confusion in street and paving work
has resulted, Shelby Smith. who is
slated for the craftsmanship Of the
county board, said today the county
will adopt new plan for future worl,
and will adhere to It rigidly
What Plan Provides.
According to Mr.. Smith, a resolution
embodying the plan will be adopted at
the first regular meeting Of the board.
This plan will be submitted to the city
as working basis.
The county's 1918 program will pro-
vide that no paving be authorized by
the commission within the city limits
until the city and the street car com
pany have furnished written statements
asserting that all the sewer and track
work has been finished.
1--WE are tired Of building pavement
in the city" said MIR. Smith, 40 have
it torn up by the city for sewers
or the street car company for some
slight change in the tracks"
Change in County Board.
whether the board will reach an
agreement with the Woodward admin
istration is the question now bother
ing the commissioners. According to
Mr.. Smith no member OF the COM
mission has conferred with Mr. Wood F.
ward or his representatives. Mr.. Smith
said he didn't know whom Woodward
will appoint to head the street and
sewer committees.
On January /, II. z. w. Palmer leaves
the county board and Tom Wynne takes
his place. This change In the personnel
is expected to SHIFT the majority and
what is known as the Smith faction will
gain power 1t is expected also that
Shelby Smith will succeed Clifford l.,
Anderson as chairman.
IF the city can't agree TO some rea-
sonable scheme of working street i'm
provements," said Smith, "the board
will turn its attention to roads In the
county outside Of the city"
