progress that is a natural forerunner Of
great real estate activity.
Carey Park lots will go on sale at the
Germania Savings Bank Monday morn
ing, October Goth, at 9 o'clock, and the
first fifty will be sold at only 5000 each,
on TERMS of just one dollar down and one
dollar a week, without interest. Carey
Park is a strictly white suburb, and sales
will be made only to white people The
lots are 5Ox140 feet and face on 50-foOt
streets, with 2O-foot alleys in the rear.
The streets are being graded. A central
spring and park site is being developed,
and the entire property offers one of the
most attractive home locations around
Atlanta, easily and quickly accessible,
with five-cent ear fare, and although an
other car line on the south will necessa-
rily increase the value of the property,
for convenience one can walk to any part
Of the property in five to ten minutes
from the present street car station.
Time was when only the rich or the
moderately rich could profit by suburban
real estate enhancements. That time has
passed. Carey Park at one dollar a week
puts it in reach of every person. Men
anu WOIueu Ol moderate Incomes, whose
savings are small and sacred, can profit
by this opportunity. Boys and girls, who
desire with their modest incomes to ere
ate the nucleus for future independence
and fortune, can take advantage of this
opportunity. Everybody, indeed, who
desires to accumulate, who feels the i'm
pulse to better their condition, or to profit
by the growth and expansion>of Atlanta,
can find in Carey Park the opportunity
of the day and the hour.
Carey Park is owned by Mr.. John
Carey and his son, Hon. Dan Carey, park
commissioner. They are behind the park
that carries their name to make of it one
of the attractive suburbs of Atlanta. Will
you profit now by this opportunity?
Don't forget that Carey Park lots go
on sale Monday morning at the Germania
Savings Bank, No. 2 Whitehall street.
We shall be glad to show you the prop
erty in the meantime If you can not
spare the time, come to the Office and make
your selection from the plat, or leave the
selection to us and we will take personal
interest in seeing that your lots are To-
Gated well and satisfactorily.

Atlanta is the hub of the South. The
South to-day is the richest, most indie
pendent and most resourceful section on
the American continent. Two hundred
millions of dollars coming into Georgia
alone for cotton, the staple and the seed.
This will pay a billion dollars worth of
debts. Atlanta will feel this wave of
prosperity more than any other city. At
lanta, phenomenal as she is, has just be-
gun to grow. Atlanta's near-in suburbs
will become her centers; her far-Out sub
urbs will become her clOse-in suburbs.
Atlanta suburban real estate will enhance
in value more in the next twelve months
than at any time in the history of the
city.
Well bought, we'll located real estate
on the fringe of great and growing city
is the safest investment one can make.
1t is not speculatiOn it is not gambling,
as is the purchase of wildcat stocks, or
trading in futures. And yet it offers the
element of protit-taking by increased val
uations Lots out Peachtree road worth
ten thousand dollars to-day could have
been bought few years ago for one hun
dred dollars. The purchaser then did not
speculate, nor did he gamble-he bought
real estate on the fringe of a growing
city, the safest and the surest investment
he could make, and his profits are counted
by tho thousands of per cent.
If YOU would put your savings to work
proftably, buy suburban real estate just
ahead of certain and well defined develop
ments Mark the emphasis-buy ahead
of these developments. If you buy be
hind the developments the element of
safety is not reduced, but the margin of
proft-taking is reduced. Prices have
necessarily gone up and cut into the mar
gin.
These are some of the reasons why we
urge YOU to-day to buy in Carey Park, on
the river car line. This suburb is in the
center of certain, absolutely assured de-
velopments that will enhance. possibly
soon double the selling price of these lots.
Another car line, going out the Mason
and Turner road, will approach Carey

Sunday noon, by Sheriff Getchell, and
which stated in effect that four men
had just landed from a boat on the
east shore of the river, and had gone
up over the bank to a place in that
vicinity, after some old cider. The
sheriff took the tip, and with Deputy
Sheriffs Pomerleau and Lewis made
his way to the west shore of the river
at Britts Gully. so-called, and there
awaited the return of the boat.
1t was not long before the craft
returned, and with it the four men
who had apparently made the trip TO
the other side a short time before.
Three of the men came up over the
bank together, and after them came
the fourth man, who was Michael
Fitzgerald. with two gallon jug in
each hand. Sheriff Getchell grabbed
one of the jugs, and as he did 50

Picked Ripe oIives.s

; II is understood among olive men in
california thatsit will besEFor@ proita-
BILE in the future to center'attention up-
on ripe picked olives than upon olive
oil. The competition of imported oils in
terferes seriously with sales of the do
nestle product. This will be especially
true when the revised tariff goes into
effect. Ripe picked olives, however,
can be produced to better advantage
in this country. because the foreign
fruit does not mature properly to
make ripe pickles. Size. therefore. rath-
err than quantity, will be the thing most
sought by California olive growers
hereafter.--New York Times.
