How about it? Are we going to

before this time the team was or
ganized ard things were running
along in league style. We had
some of the best ball that We have

themselves, for already many teams
are writing for games with our

month, two or three Portland teams
have written and offered to come
for a $40 guarantee, and several
other VALLEY towns are after games

Here a New Wrinkle
For Mr.. Wallingford.

A bold, bad crook came to Atlanta the
other day, to show the crooks that might
be here the latest things in the light
fingered art He succeeded.
This artist selected as the ground of
his operation big mems furnishing es-
tablishment on Peachtree street, where
special sale of suits was in progress
The establishment being prominent, their
wares being true and tried. and their
prices being cheap, the sale was well
patronzed, and number Of extra clerks
were put in service.
The crook entered, stood with his hat
off against the counter, scratching his
head and looking otherwise superior and
airness in a way that clerks have.
The rush brought in number OF GUS
toners, One hurried man came in, APP
preached the crook, and asked to be
shown some gray suits. Our friend ac-
guessed, waited on him, received $25 for
suit Of clothes that the hurried person
selected, wrapped the suit and delivered
it, Then he sauntered away
The little transaction was not regarded
as unusual by the new clerks, until they
began to talk about It to the regular en-
ployees. Then the story came out.

It's An Ungrateful
World, My Masters.
BLOW, blow, thou wintry wind!
Thou art not more unkind
Than mans ingratitude."

Blow, blow, thou wintry wind!
Thou art not more unknd
Than mans ingratitude"
Which is the text of this little sermon.
There lived and worked in Atlanta a
mail clerk, who was very tender heart
ed man. He loved the little birds and the
chickens, big and little, and the flowers
He worked in the mike" department,
where he wept at the tragedy Of lost let
tiers, daily.
Day before yesterday there came to his
desk a large package. 1t had been con-
signed TO Canada by an Atlanta woman,
who because she was woman, did not
heed the parcel post regulations, which
restrict parcel post service to the States
alone, and put a parcel post stamp on
the package. 1t would not be admitted
in the mails, naturally. and was sent to
the mike department until the woman
could be notified.
The tender hearted clerk noticed the
package. It contained flowers. He knew
that they would wither and fade and that
the woman's purpose would be spoiled, be-
cause it would take maybe some time for
her to respond to the notice and send the
regulation stamps Therefore, out of a
kindly impulse, he put the proper stamps
on the package, on his own account, and
sent it on. The stamps cost him some
thing more than so cents.
Then he sat down to write the woman
who had sent the package, telling her Of
what he had done, advising her to watch
the little things hereafter, and implying
the hint that so cents, being the price Of
various and sundry delectable things, are
scarce with mail clerks.
Did she bubble over and thank him?
Not she. With letter full of anger she
wrote Postmaster Mckee that this fresh
young man be fired, Immediately and IN
continently. She was woman.
But virtue is it's own reward and its
own insurance policy. The young mail
clerk still works today at his desk in
the mike department, and his heart has
lost none of its tenderness through the
bllghting influence of the ungrateful lsdys

ARkWR|GHT TALK
Has Made Certain a Sweep

Car Service.

While no member of the Georgia rail
road commission viii agree to talk for
publication pending the hearing Of the
Georgia Railway and Power Company's
answer to the commissions order for
detailed information as to its street car
service in Atlanta, it may be accepted
AS fact that the commission is not any
too Wen pleased with Mr.. Arkwright's
published interview concerning the
commission and its alleged attitude to-
ward the street car people.
My. Arkwrlght'S statement that the
commission invariably decides against
his company, after citing it to answer
complaints" is, so those who have
watched the progress of events say. not
borne out by the facts. On the contrary.
it is contended that four of the last five
complaints the commission called the
company to answer were decided in the
cOmpany's favor.

The commission calls attention to the

months back to avoid alI-night service

Sweeping Probe Sure.
AS a matter of fact. more than one
member of the commission is said to
favor a considerable extension of the
limited night car service now provided
in Atlanta.
There is no doubt that the commits
sion intends making its inquiry into
the street car situation sweeping and
thorough, with an eye to remedying it
in many places, if complaints are found
warranted.
Indeed, the attitude of President Ark
wright, far from lessening the prob
ability of a complete and exhaustive in

more certain.
