NEW NUMBERS FOR HOUSES.

Editor The Georgian:
The street numbering plan,
suggested in your editorial of
Tuesday, with map illustrating
same, can be improved on to
make it more simply understood
by the masses, particularly :,
strangers in the city ] approve
of the general idea of using de-
fined east. west, north and south
lines to divide the city and the
inauguration of the 100 to-the-
block or centenary system of
numbers, but your plan leaves
room for considerable confusion
because of the use of imaginary
lines from the Pryor street engine
house to the State Capitol at Cap
itol avenue and from Edgewood
avenue at Five Points to West
Hunter street beyond the Ter
minal Station.
A better plan would probably be
to let the line from north to south
follow Pryor street from the in
NtISNAAlbii WIN tttNAANANN OF NAit
Grand Opera House, all the way
south to Lakewood. Pryor street
is continuous thoroughfare,
coupled with Peachtree and West
Peachtree, and runs through the
downtown section of the city in
a manner that would make il
adaptable as dividing line
South of East Fair street il would
serve the purpose just as well as

story Courthouse, Union Depot.
and Equitable or Georgia Trust
Building would be landmarks to
distinguish this dividing line.

east to west, whore your plan

curry favor by telling me of It,
And of this never for moment
doubt that the man who success
fully manages great railroad,
bank, factory or other enterprise,
is one who neither listens to nor
bears tales to any person of what
this one says or does. He treats
all with courtesy and fairness,
and like the great and loving Ex-
ecutive, when his generals were
accused, deducts 70 per cent from
every accusation and throws the
remainder in the wastebasket.
Actions alone count.
Where many men are employed
there are always some who are
full of plots and of schemes for
more pay, shorter hours or ia
vors generally. They scheme to
have one foreman bounced" in
order to have another man, who
will help their cause, put in
charge
Should success follow their eff
forts, and the old foreman be re-
placed, the first move of the new
man will probably be to dis
charge the conspirators who
helped him
Men who conspire and plot,
and who lend ready ear to the
idea of a strike, are marked on
every time book for dismissal
when the hour is ripe. And when
ever you find a man who spends
half of his time looking for job
you can rest assured that he is
one who carries a large cargo of
tongue"
You can never stand in with
the boss by telling him of those
who are laggards. The only way
you can win his favor is by set
ting the loafers a pace. He
KNOWS all ABOUT Ghe ioafers. For
if he did not he could never sue
cessfully manage an institution.
No man can ever succeed who
hopes to get better position BY
OBTAINING or dragging down the
reputation of another. There is
but one way to win, and that is to
do your work well and speak III
of no one, not even as a matter of
truth. Any other course leads to
fears, tears, woeful waste of life
force and oblivion.
There is only one way to win
the favor of gced men, and there
is only one way YOU can secure
the smile OF success, and that Is
10 do your work as well as YOU
can and speak i'll of no one.

TIME story that Hardy told in
his great novel, Tess of
the d'Urbervilles," repeated
itself in real life in another city
the other day.
A young couple got married and
agreed to tell each other every
thing that had ever happened to
them. The man told his story,
and the woman forgave him his
sins. The girl told of a. single
step that she had taken aside
from the strait and narrow road,
and the man upbraided her
with every revilement he could
think of. and ordered her out of
the little home they had fur
nished with such hope and happi-
ness. The young wife-she was
onlv child of 1S-went. But
she did not go through the door
She threw herself out of the win
dow and was dashed to death on
the stones of the street below.
This sad case is pathetic
illustration of the double standard
of morals that the world has set
up for men and women. The man
may do with impunity what the
woman is damned for doing. The
man excuses in himself the weak
nesses that he never forgives in
her. and he expects her to lightly
condone in him the offenses for
which he puts her out of doors.
The most absurd and arrogant
provision of this double standard
of conduct is the theory that OBJ
tains that a woman who has had
A mast should reveal it all to the
man who asks her to marry him
before marriage, and that If she
doesn't do so she has been guilty

take the sound of their own ham
mers for that of others. Any
man who plots another's undoing
is digging his own grave.
All those plotters of the French
Revolution who worked the gull
lotine in double shifts were at
last dragged to the scaffold and
pushed under the knife.
The hate We sow finds lodgment
in our hearts, and the crop is

Men! Women! Bury the
Past When You Wed!
If 1t Is Full of Mistakes That Can Be Lived
Down, 1t Does No Good to Reveal It.
Present and Future Alone Count
By DOROTHY DIX.

What is past is past and can
not be changed, and the telling Of
it does not undo the wrong. No
wife is the happier for knowing
of just when, and how, and where
and the extent of the wild oats
crop her husband sowed. 1t does
not make her trust him more to
know from his own lips that he
has been one of those who loved
and rode away or kissed and
told. Instead, there is ALWAYS
ranking jealousy in her heart Of
these other women and fear
that if she doesn't watch him well
he will slip back to them.
Unless It Menaces His
Wife's Future, a Man
Is Wise to Hide It.
So, unless there is something in
his past life that menaces his
wife's future, a man is wise to
draw a discreet veil of reticence
over his bachelor days.
And there is not whit more.
reason why a woman should tell
a man she is going to marry every
detail of her past life than there
is why. he should tell her. She
has a right to appeal from the
made double standard and
subscribe to a single standard Of
morals for both sexes with perfect
assurance that whatever hers are,
they are as good as those of her
husband elect.
She hasn't right to bring dis
ease or disgrace into her new
home, but if she is one of those
unfortunate ones. a girl who,
through being ignorant and I'M
taught, or too loving and trusting,
has been betrayed into doing a
wrong that she has repented in
bitterness and tears, she has lust
as much Of right to put that
wrong behind her as a man would
have had he committed it, and to
go forward to happy and useful
life.
1t is not fair that her whole
life should be wrecked by sin
gle misdeed, as it would be if she
confessed 1t to the man who
asked her to marry him, II
would brand her forever after
ward in his eyes as a woman with
past" He would never LOOK
at her without seeing her skirt
stained with mud, although in
reality there might be only the
tiniest smirch upon the hem.
If the man was much in love
with her, he might marry her
and declare that he would over
look the sin of her youth, but he
wouldn't.

street. Fair street is the only
straight street from limit to linn

in It, but it's not nearly so

For base to number east and
west from. take Moreland avenue
which is the Fulton DeKalb
County line. That throws big
numbers on the streets running
east and west into the business
district again.
Then when you go east from
the base and come to a place
where street runs in on an
acute angle, start at | again.
Follow the same plan, going west

Topics for Ralston.

Governor Ralston has announced that he will
make thirty political addresses in behalf of the
Democratic ticket this fall
If he has not already prepared these speeches
the people of Indiana will be pleased if he will
devote a little space to explanations of certain
actions of his own and of his party, toward which
he has so far maintained policy of sphinz-like
silence The people of Indiana would like to have
Governor Ralston-
Explain why, with the state revenues mil
lion and a quarter dollars larger than in 1908,
the state house Democrats spent every cent OF
the revenues and borrowed hundreds of thous-
ands from big city banks at high interest rates
to pay current bills.
Tell why with the taxables hundreds of mil
lions higher than formerly, the tax rate has been
increased 81 cents on each 500 Of taxables I'M
der Democratic management
Tell why in the first year of full Democratic
control the state treasury showed, in 1911, def
cit of $51, 900.
Explain to taxpayers why it is that the def
cit in 1913 grew to $46O,OOO, with interest on
$46O,OOO.
Set out for the people the reasons for bor-
rowing $46OOOO in 1913.
Tell why the state house Democrats borrowed
Tell why just the other day. the state house
Democrats borrowed another 100000 at 512 per
cent from big banks
Explain why the state house Democrats have
failed to run the government within its largely
increased income.
Tell why he approved the defeated and noto-
rious Lake county bill, approved by Speaker Cook
of the house of representatives, candidate
for secretary of state and the lieutenant COVER
nor, until he had made an investigation of it,
which he is just now undertaking after a delay
of nearly two years.
Then, if these explanations do not prove too
exhausting, he might take up the record of the
last Observation-Disclosures legislature and ex-
plain:
Why the child-labor law was weakened.
Why the free textbook bill was ignored.
Why the eight-hour-day bill for women was
killed.

Don't Forget to Register, October 5.

Similar to Nelson's battle order is the Indi-
ana campaign slogan this year: Every good
citizen is expected to do his full duty at the polls
in November"
To qualify as good citizen one must regis
ter in his voting precinct, October 5. The cleo
ton this year will be by far the most important
held in Indiana in decade. For the first time
in the history of this and every other state there
will be direct election of United States sena-
tor; next November the people of Indiana will de-
eide whether or not convention to revise the
Anticipated constitution of 1851 shall be called,
and if such action is ordered a tremendous handi-
cap imposed by the Taggart Democratic machine
must be overcome the securing of majority of
ALL VOTES CAST FOR THE HEAD OF EACH
TICKET. In other words, those favoring the
calling of such convention must constitute a
majority Of the total vote cast, not the total vote
cast on this question alone; and last, but not
least, the Forthcoming election puts it up square
ly to the Indiana voters whether this state shall
continue to remain in the hands of the Demo-
cratic machine, or, what is just as bad, trans
ferred to the control of the old Republican gang,
or whether the destinies of Indiana shall be in
trusted to the party of the people-the Progress
sive part-to be administered in the interests of
no special interests and political spoilsmen, but
in the interest of the masses.
This election calls every voter interested in
a better governed, more progressive Indiana to
