From Kansas City, Mo-, came the
story that the hurricane, which had

STORE PLAN DRAWS THREAT
Housewives Arranging to Start a Pro-

Force a Lowering Of Prices.

Kansas City, Mo. - Anonymous
threats directed at the proprietors of
a music store where the Housewives
league of Kansas City has maintained
headquarters have caused worry to
the officers of the league that resulted
in decision to suspend operations
until new location is secured. The
Housewives league is trying to raise
a fund of $4,000, with which to open
a cooperative produce store.
That so pronounced an attack on the
league would be made was not antici-
pated by the directors.
''We expected some criticism" said
Mrs. Willard @. Church, president of
the league, 'but we did not think it
would take so determined a form.
1--WE have repeatedly said that the
league was not organized to attack
the grocers or any set of merchants.
We wish to be fair and just, and our
only reason in establishing a store is
to show that the present method of
handling produce is unnecessarily eX.
pensive and cumbersome.

Farm exhibits in charge of the De-
partment of Agriculture and the Ex-
tension Department of the State Uni
versity will be made at the county
fairs this year. AS the Agricultural

ture. Thesexhibits will cover the sub
jects of dairying, pure food, fertilizer,

schools in the towns where the exhibits
are made at the fairs. the school to be
held the week following the fair

SIS to Insure

The ideal carriage horse is the
American trotting bred horse, with
size, speed, courage, and the true
trotting gait. with plenty of knee and
hook action. In addition he must
have clean cut head and neck, style
and finish, plenty of substance with
out coarseness.
Recognizing the demand for this
class of horses, selected Taylor Sim
mons 23489, a young horse which fills
all the requirements of the typical
carriage horse. If the theory that
like begets like" be true, he will
produce horses of this type when
mated with good mares Through his
veins flow the blood of the greatest
trotting families. He traces twice to
George Wilkes and five times to Mann
brino Chief II. This is backed by the
stout thoroughbred blood of Boston.
A few of the fancy priced ones
sired by Taylor Simmons: Thendara,
winner in the walk.trot class at the
Blue Grass Fair IN 1907, Louisville
Horse Show and in the East, sold by
Col. G. L. Railey for $500; Alleen
Powers, sold to Godfrey Priest, of
New York, for $1,000; Little Nath,

PLAN FORF|FT THIS
TRIP AbANDONE
Necessary Money Not Raised.
Soldiers Now Anticipating
Encampment.

The Fifth Georgia regiment win 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. j.
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 it 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 and 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 it was expected to raise
most of this by assessing each man SIS
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 regl-
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 inn
possibility now. We are very CRATE
full to those men who have come to the
front with their subscriptions, and APP
preciate their spirit as much as If we
had collected and used the money"

PEACHTREE WORK
WATTS 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 ac-
ton has been taken by the board or
by any of its committees relative to
the repairing or repaying of Peachtrce
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 a 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,
II possible. He ascribed the recent de-
lay to the fact that the city and county
had been unable thus far to get to-
Sether on program for 1913.
It 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

SOME THING NEW

REAL NOVEL PLAN OF

Atlanta. Ga February -. 1919.

Atlanta, Ca, February -, 1919.
Considerable interest is being
shown in the different styles of adj
vertisements which appear daily in
this newspaper by several different
concerns.
Up o-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 CLOCK Sale" in today's papers.
This is the first time that a
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 a sale will no doubt
attract many buyers and its prog
ress is being watched with consid-
cradle interest by the city's most
prominent men.
