FORF|FTH'S
TRIP ABANDONED
Necessary Money Not Raised.
Soldiers Now Anticipating
Encampment.

The Fifth Georgia regiment will not
represent Atlanta at the Inauguration
Of President Wilson. When the in
| coming and outgoing chief executives
of the nation ride down Pennsylvania
avenue "Atlanta's own" will not be in
| the procession attending him.
The campaign for funds was officially
ended today. The necessary amount to
send the Fifth to Washington was not
raised, and Forrest Adair and L. ].
Daniel, the two members of the COM
mittee who have kept up the fight to
the last minute, decided to drop it.
Various matters combined to pre-
vent our raising the funds" said Mr.
Adair today. I'm the first place. l do
not think that a majority of the regi-
ment was any too keen to make the
trip, and this naturally had its effect
Then the money from the city was tied
up until next Thursday, at the earliest
and with this uncertainty in regard to
funds, 1t would not be wise to contract
for quarters at Washington, which
would have to be done at once, in or
der to secure suitable accommoda-
tons, and we finally decided to aban-
don the whole project"
Since the Inauguration OF the move
ment to send the Fifth to Washington,
the soldiers themselves have displayed,
for the most part, an Indifferent atti-
tude. They are planning an encamp-
ment at ST. Simons this year, and many
of them who are employed in the city
were fearful that if they took the Wash
ington trip they would not be able to
get off for the encampment. Some Of
the employers Of members of the Fifth
told the committeeman, when asked for
funds, that the boys had told them not
to contribute, as they (the soldiers) did
not care to take the trip.
The question of finances, both now
and for the future, entered largely into
decision of the soldiers. They intend to
ask the city ana county to put an ele-
vator in the Armory this year, and to
ask assistance in securing new uni
forms before the st. Simons trip, and
many of them thought that 1t would
not be reasonable to expect the city and
county to contribute on both occasions
The regiment had pledged $4,000 to
the fund, and 1t was expected to raise
most Of this by assessing each man S.
for the trip. They expect to be as
sessed IS each for the uniforms and
the st, Simons trip, and many of them
did not care to put up with the extra
expense. All these reasons have been
placed before the committee in charge
of raising the funds to send the regi-
ment to Washington, and today it was
decided to drop all effort toward rails
ing any more money.
Il am sorry that we could not have
Atlanta represented by her own regi-
ment at the inauguration" said For
rest Adair today, but we have done our
best, and it looks too much like an i'm
possibility now. We are very CRATE
full to those men who have come to the
front with their subscriptions, and ap.
preciate their spirit as much as if we
had collected and used the money"

SOME THING NEW
IN ATLANTA
CLOCK SALE REPRESENTS
REAL NOVEL PLAN OF
ADVERTISING.
atlanta, Ca. February II, 1919.

Atlanta, Ca February II, 1913.
Considerable interest is being
shown in the different styles Of adj
vertisements which appear daily in
this newspaper by several different
concerns.
Up-to-date schemes and plans of
advertising demonstrate that Allan
Ia is fast becoming a city whose
mercantile houses are progressing
rapidly and are importing metro
politan ideas and putting them to
use in the newspapers.
Particular attention might be
called to an advertisement of a GER
tain local concern who is running
a "Clocll Sale" in todays papers.
This is the first time that q
O'clock Sale" of any kind has been
run in Atlanta. The object of the
plan is to place on sale at certain
hours during the business day GER
tain merchandise at special reduced
prices, which price will stand only
at the hour stated.
This kind of sale will no doubt
attract many buyers and it's prog
ress is being watched with consid-
cradle interest by the city's most
prominent men.

PEACHTREE WORK
WAITS ON COUNTY
Paving Repair Undone, While
Board Pleads Lack of Pro-
gram With City.

According TO Shelby Smith, chair
man of the Fulton commission, no &C
zion has been taken by the board or
by any of It's committees relative TO
the repairing or repaving Of Peachtree
street from Sixth to Fifteenth streets.
According to Mr. Smith. George
Warren. president Of the material firm
responsible for the pavement, agreed a
year ago to furnish the material if
the county would furnish the men.
Mr.. Warren. Smith asserts, did not
make n definite proposition, and no real
agreement was reached.
Residents of Peachtree and adjacent
streets affected by the condition Of the
pavement appeared before the public
works committee OF the county board
two weeks ago and requested some
sort of action. They also appeared be-
fore the street committee of council
Commissioner Smith said yesterday
afternoon that the county stood ready
and willing to put this street in shape,
IL possible, He ascribed the recent de-
lay to the fact that the city and county
had been unable thus far to get to-
gether on a program for 1918.
r 1t seems to be the opinion of the
county board members that the pave
ment must be relaid rather than re-
paired, and that Warren Bros. should
be made to come across with material
10 complete the job The material
used on the strip from Sixth to Fiji
teenth streets is bitulithic asphalt. The
strip from Ponce DeLeon avenue to

Mr. John II. Reynolds, of Rome, pres
ident OF one Of the leading banks of
the city, is not a politician profession
ally, but he keeps rather watchful
eye on politics and politicians, never
theless.
Recently, in thinking OF politicians,
Mr.. Reynolds naturally began discuss
ing lawyers, and. among other whole
some things, he said this
why does a lawyer ever forget
to be a gentleman-that is. some
lawyers? What does it profit a law
yer, who IS often a Chesterfield in
manners to forget this during the
examination of witnesses? He
should know that with any sensi-
BILE right thinking juryman he has
lost caste. There is a sense of
fairness and the square deal in
the average human breast and it
rebels against any unfairness. This
makes two reasons why a lawyer
should not take the advantage that
the court gives him in browbeating
a witness-first, it is not right, and
second, the average juryman re-
sents-so what's the gain?
Then again, the courts are too
lax in this. They should give more
protection to witnesses-a large
number of whom are not familiar
with court proceedings or even
public proceedings of any kind.
necessarily they get confused and
do themselves and their cause an
ntustce-fortunately their com
pensation is in the resentful mood
of the jury"
Others besides MIR. Reynolds have
noticed this tendency among some law
yers, and remarked upon it,
The Rome banker has shown plainly
TO such lawyers wherein the danger OF
the practice lies, tool

las, who once occupied the superior

lowing, and likely will give a fine &C.
counting of himself in the running.
