MODEL j. 6.
BUILDING
PLANNED

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Basing
Of the efficiency committee on At
lantas postal business and the urgent
need of additional room, Representa-
tive William Schley Howard to-day
introduced a bill in the House to APP
propriate $2,O00COO for the erection of
! new Federal building in Atlanta for
postal purposes only.
He expects action upon the measure
at this session.
The efficiency committee, which has
made an investigation of the Allan
ia office and its business, with view
to making it a model for the country,
declares that no postoffice has made
such rapid strides in business as the
Atlanta office. and that the force is
well organized, 1t concludes with
praise of Postmaster Jones
It is proposed TO make the new
postoffice building a story struc-
ture, and use the present building for
other purposes.
one proposition is TO use the first
floor for the regional bank, If one is
located in Atlanta, and the remaining
room for administrative and judicial
offices of the Government
In the absence Of Postmaster Jones
from his Office Wednesday, Assistant
Postma ster j. c. Station declined to
say he had heard officially or other
wise anything relative to the possibil-
ity of Atlanta being given an indi-
vidual postoffice building
II must admit however he said,
we are in need Of larger quarters
and if we are to handle the true
growth we expect it will be most nee
essary to have more floor space. The
receipts of this postofilce are growing
rapidly. Instance of this fact may be
shown in report ! have Just com
pleted. which shows an increase OF l2
per cent in posta receipts from March
! to "A. 1914, over the same period last
year
In view OF this, We certainly may
expect a greater business to handle.
Even il the proposal for a new build
ing is met with favorsbly by Goa
gress, we will in the course OF its
erection be forced to extend our quar-
ters in the Federal Building in order
TO facilitate the handling Of our OK
pected yearly growth

Miss Mary Caldwell, who is board
ing with the family of Mr.. Joe T.
Miller few miles below town, had
an exciting experience last Tuesday
morning, when to avoid the high wa
ter. she undertook to pilot her horse
across the railroad bridge at Muddy
creek. Miss Caldwell is a student at
Hartford College, and thought she
could not afford to miss day at
school which accounts for her ha-
zardous undertaking. The horse be-
longs to Mr.. Joe Miller, and while it
has gone thru many years OF careful
training in all sorts of gymnastics un
der Joe it was unable to hold its
feet on, the slippery cross ties, and
fell thru, after having gotten a few
feet out on the. trestle. Miss Catd-

ephone, and the horse was rescued
just in time to make way for one OF
the regular trains.

Now Mr.. Taxpayer l have offered
Judge Wilson a week of time with
hand and team free of charge to work
on the roads this year land four
years if they need them. Are you
ready with your hand and team free
of charge for a week to work the
roads or are you going to sit on
the nail key, white and growl and
at the end of the four years accuse
the Fiscal Court of being dishonest.
II we ever get the roads to what they

there is not enough money paid

Now Mr.. Taxpayer / will tell you |
about that one hundred and twenty |

~ road engineer, when the salary |
was fixed last January at thousand |
dollars. There was one magistrate |
who made a vigorous protest, said |
