Two Charges Fired,

A determined attempt to blow open
the vault of the Bank of Smyrna. fif-
teen miles north of Atlanta. was made
early Wednesday morning At least
two big charges of nitroglycerine were
fired. but the door resisted, and the
cracksmen departed. leaving about
$4,000 in cash safely reposing in a
screw door safe within the vault
we really were in no danger of
losing the money" J. d. Corn, ca ashier,
said over the long distance telephone,
They never could have got into that
safe, even had they blown open the
vault door. They have caused us a
good deal of inconvenience. as the
door is so bent and jammed by the
explosions that we can't get it open.
We have sent to Atlanta for an eX-
pert safe man to come up and let us
in to our money
Mr Corn added that the damage
was apparently slight and was fully
covered by insurance
Although neighbors were sleeping
within $50 feet Of the bank, at the
corner of Atlanta street and ireland
avenue, no one heard the explosions.
Three strange men were seen in the
town Tuesday night. loUnging around

@The purpose of the Lenten sea-
a som" said DR. Memminger, lis to
nourish and strengthen the spiritual
life of our people. in order that they
may put more of that kind of life into
their everyday business, their pleas
urcs etc. We believe that the great
est transformation of the whole city's
life can be wrought by the work and
example of. people who have really
caught the vision of Christ
we believe that the Kingdom of
s Heaven is a leaVen; and that more
effective work can be accomplished
for the betterment of a community by
the injection of that leaven into the
life of its individual citizens.
THE Episcopal Church LAYS down
no hard and fast rules but leaves it
TO each individual conscience to adopt
such measures as he. or she thinks
will assist in the upbuilding OF the
spiritual nature. The church advises
its people to Withdraw as much as
possible from worldly affairs and de-
vote that time to meditation on their
own sinfulnessi-4t6- atterA%tfs many
services as possible and to devote
more time to earnest prayer
In other words, to try and shut out
the noises of the world, that they NAV
more clearly hear the voice of God.
