Life; Worth
LUng in Georgia

If you prefer city life, there
are no better cities in the
world than those in Georgia.
If you prefer village life, the
smaller towns in Georgia
offer every inducement.
If you prefer country or farm
life, Georgia offers greater
inducements than any State
in the Union. Georgia lands
work the year round, from
two to five crops being gath
cred off of the same land
each year---crops that are
profitable.

+ URTHERMORE, there are several
college stars Of the present dav
who are debating the question OF
turning professional At Princeton.

that Clark Griffith holds Pendleton's

Up at Nashville It has been re-

ing with All the Government
Departments.
SAVING OF TIME AND MONEY

The postal authorities are considering
portation system to connect all of the
government departments with each other
and with the postoffice building under
construction near Union Station. This
system would be a great time. labor. ana
money saver over the present method Of
carrying the mail by trucks.
The plan has been investigated. and
figures showing the cost and capabilities
of the automatic system have been COM
piled. An Appropriation from Congress
is necessary, and the matter will be put
before that body this session, ii is hoped.
This same means of transportation would
be used in carrying mail matter from
Union Station and the Government Print
ing Office to the new building.
a committee has been named by the
Postmaster General to make disposition
of space in the new postoffice. The
committee has reached only tentative
agreement on this matter, and will not
make known its findings for some time.
1t has been conditionally decided that
among the branches of the service tc
be housed on the upper stories will be
the supply division, the dead letter Of
flee, the stamp division, the offices oi
the inspector in charge of the Washing
ton divisions. and the third division OF
the railway mail service.
The building will be used primarily fol
the city postoffice. The Offices of the
Postmaster General and the other gen
eral offices Of the Postoff.ce Department
will remain in their present quarters.
This committee to determine the use
of space is made up of NJ. o. Chance,
chief clerk of the Postoffice Department;
