FOR ATLANTA AGAIN
GETS OFFICIAL HOOK

Atlanta's promised cold spell again
has failed to materialize. Instead Of
falling to 80 degrees as predicted, the

slightly rising temperature
The weather is Unusually mild
throughout all the United States. The

One of our enterprising business men
informed US recently that his business
for the month Of August this year was
2t times what it was for the month of
August 1912. He said he thought the
increase in his business was due to the
fact that he carried liberal amount of
advertising space in the local papers
this year while he failed to look after
the advertising end Of his business a
year ago. .-Holyoke Enterprise.

Y BUILDING is To
OPEN THURSDAY.
NOVEMBER 10Th
Committee Makes Decision ON
Matter After Thorough
Inspection of Plant.
DORMITORY ROOMS READY
AS Structure Is Complete Officials
Decide to Soon Place Unpaid
Notes in Hand of Attorney.

The new Y. NJ. C. A. building will
be thrown open to the public Thurs
day, Nov. %. THIS decision was
reached by the members of the build
ing committee yesterday afternoon,
after a thorough inspection of the
building.
The committee decided that it is
unfair to deprive the young men of
the use of the completed building for
longer time while waiting fo9 the
final payments to be made on pledges,
and so authorized the opening for
work, with the understanding that the
building will not be dedicated, nor
turned over to the board of trustees.
until after the final financial settle
ment has been made.
Plans for the opening program will
be somewhat handicapped on this &C
count, and because of the limited time
available for making preparations, but
it is safe to say that fitting ceremonies
will be arranged, and that the build
ing will be opened up in a manner
suited to its Importance.
The committee decided further at
yesterdays meeting that on tomorrow.
Wednesday, morning, the remaining
unpaid pledges will be placed in the
Central Trust and Savings bank, and
in the Rock Island Savings bank for
collection. Names listed alphabetical
ly from 4 to NJ will be found at the
Central Trust, and those from y 10
will be at the Rock Island Savings
bank. The pledges will remain in
these banks, where payments may be
made on them until Nov. %. after
which date they will be placed in an
hands for collection by legal
process on all unpaid balances.
The members of the committee feel
that as a matter of common justice
to the hundreds of subscribers who
have paid up their pledges, they must
compel the payment of those which
have been negleced, and while they
regret the necessity for using extreme
measures, they will do so as last
resort.
