II Walter p. Andrews agrees 10 be
come g candidate for Mayor OF At
lanta, there IL no doubt whatever that
his race will be watched by interested,
and in hundreds OF cases entirely
sympathetic, eyes all over the State.
There is hardly a better known At
lantsn than Walter Andrews. Not
only was his circle Of acquaintance
large before he began taking any sort
Of active interest in politics, but Il
has been greatly enlarged since As
ono Of the managers OF Ptesiden.
Woodrow Wilson's primary campaign
len Georgia. Andrews came In contact
daily with scores Of Georgians from
all sections, and the impression he
made upon them invariably seemed TO
be pleasant.
He devoted 2 very great deal Of his
time TO the Wilson hesdquarters--as
he does 10 all matters In which he
becomes interested-an It Is a sure
thing that he would be q Mayor con
stautly on the lob. II, in the course Of
events. he should become the head Of
me government OF Georgias capital
city
Mr. Andrews TOO. has perhaps
among the Elks the very greatest
number Of friends and we'll wishers
Of any member Of that antlered tribe
in the State. He unquesttonably Is
credited among his brethren with the
present high standard OF the Atlanta
lodge For time he was district
deputy grand exalted ruler of the
state, and is now a member OF the
Grand Lodge of the nation.
To be sure. the latter circum-
stance has nothing whatever to do
with politics, but Il is fact that
through these high positions in the
order OF Elks Walter F. Andrews has
had opportunity, happily improved, Of
meeting and knowing, after a heart
to-heart fashion. very great number
Of Georgians.
Whether Mr. Andrews ever makes
the race for Mayor Of Atlanta sac
tually, it IL a fact that he is temper
amentally, intellectually and every
other why entirely equal TO the posi-

"PUBLIC DANCE AND RAGGLNG' LEAD MANY A

Chapter WILL.
There are big dance halls where
you can dance for five cents a cou-
pie for each dance.
There's no fault to be found with
the dancing in those places. Usually
it's orderly and respectable and rag
ging is strictly barred. The managers
do all in their power to keep the
places on a high level.
But it's the prOmiscuOUs meetings
and associations that menace.
Strange girls dance with strange men
continually. I've often danced with
men whose names 1 didn't know. And
lots of school girls have, too.
The man may be all right. But
again he may be all wrong. There's
no way of telling.

used to enjoy that beach dancing.
Thousands of respectable people do.
Alice danced in. a certain pavilion
on many evenings with perfect safe

man bought her dances for her.
After several numbers she was ex-
cited and exhilarated, so he suggest
ed a stroll to the end of the pier.
It was lonely and deserted out there,
no sound but the slapping of the
waves against the wharf
The man told Alice he loved her.
She fooled and fIirted with him and
they stayed there until the lights in
the pavilion went out and Alice dis
covered it was very late. The last
car had gone. The man vanished
and Alice was left alone.
All night she stayed at the beach.

her mother was hystericaI. They

Mime. Japrose Talks on
Personal Cleanliness

The daily bathing habit is more than
a desire to appear clean and bright
1t is positive necessity for complete
health. The pores of the skin are
nature s breath ducts and to clog them
up is to invite i'll health. The happiest
men and women and children on earth
are those who are perfectly clean, and
perfect cleanliness comes from the use,
