Dear Miss Fairfax;

Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 have been keeping company
with a girl for six months until
recently we had a little quarrel
and we did not speak for a week.
We made up a few days ago, but
during the week we were mad
she accepted the attentions of
another man. but she still says
she loves me and always viii. Do
you think It is worth while for me
to think Of her any longer? d. d.
You quarreled with her, and II she
found comfort in the society of an
other man while you were poutina
she did Just right and I admire hen
spunk
Your question leaves doubt OF
the depth Of your devotion. so, per
haps, for her sake. it will be just as
well If you trouble her no longer.

CLAYTON'S ATTACK
MAKES CONN MERGE
CHAMBER HESITATE

The executive committee OF the
Chamber of Commerce will meet this
afternoon to consider the report of the
chamber engineering committee Sc
verely criticising the city construction
department. Because Chief Of Con-
struction Clayton has already made
public spirited attack on this re-
mort. even before the executive COM
mfttee had read it. it is said the COM
mittee is much embarrassed over what
to do, and that the criticisms may
never be made public.
Though the contents of the report
are supposed to have been kept secret
Chief of Construction Clayton admit
ted that he was familiar with them. he
attacked the engineering committee as
not having visited his Office nor made
any real Investigations.
some of the members Of the chamber
executive committee say that in view
of the delicate political situation caused
bv the new charter agitation, they thlhk
il would be well to "pigeonhole' the re-
mort on Captain Clayton's department
The general opinion is that captain
CLAYTON has effectively called the luFes-
tigattng committees bluff.

wagons came rushing up. The service
wagon of the Georgia Railway and
Power Company was among them.
In the meantime an employee had
been innocently smoking a choice ham
in the SawteIl basement. 1t might have
been a Smithfeld or it might have been
something else, but that is beside the
question. The ham expert swears by
the great Ich Bin that it was ham and
nothing else. Proof of which, he says,
is in the tasting Chief Cummings ex-
amined the parched shoulder and de-
cIared there was, not sufficient justifi-

The woman who turned in the alarm
escaped into a department store and
has not been seen since.
