N. c. & St. L. TO REBUILD TRACKS
CARTERSVILLE TO ATLANTA.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Jan. 13. Or
ders have just been placed by the \.
c. and st. l.. Railway for 5000 tons
OF new steel rails which will repre-
sent an outlay of approximately
$125, 900. These new rails are to be
used on the Western and Atlantic
Railroad which the N. c. and St. L..
leases from the State of Georgia, and
the track will be renewed between
Cartersville and Atlanta, according
to the plans OF the management.
In connection with this improve
ment of the tracks of the w. & A..
road which will begin with the first
delivery of the new rails, it is said
that the policy of the management of
the n. c. & st. l.. railway is to main
tain the high standard of roadway
on the w. & A. that it has maintain
ed ever since it took over the opera
ton Of this line between Chattan-
ooga and Atlanta. 1t is stated on
authority that just after the n. C.
and st. l., took over the w. & A..
under its lease that it expended over
100000 in improvements and bet
terments in placing the line up to
the standard desired by the execu-
tives of the leasing road, and before
any profits began to be shown in it's
operation.

TO THE CITIZENS OF MARIETTA

Owing to the controversy regard
ing the treatment of Nancy viii
liams during her recent illness the
active members Of the Womau's
Benevolent Association think it is
due them that the facts and figures
OF the case be made public. When
the Chairman OF the Relief Commit
tee first had a record of Nancy Will
liams she and the Chairman of Pur-
chasing Committee went at once to
Nancy's house to see aXactly what
was needed and give relief at once.
They cleaned her house, as much as
they dared (and any one who has
been in her dirty house knows what
That means)) bought new blankets.
new pillow cases and new underwear
and saw that she had every atten-
ton, proper food and put her under
the care of physician.
These two women and few others
who were interested prepared chick
en- soup and other dishes that she
relished, and this, understand, was
done outside of the Association.
from their own funds. They saw
that sufficient coal was furnished.
Since Nov. LIST two tons ow coal have
been bought by the association and
$l.OO worth given by party interest
enough coal for one person in that
length of time. The officers and
active members of the Association
feel that everything has been done
that could be, and if any one wishes
any further information or figures
the books of the Purchasing Commit
Tee and Treasurer are open to in
pectlon and the merchants from
whom the coal, provisions and cloth
ing were bought can be seen. and
these facts verified. If some of the
women of Marietta, especially those
VINO are interested in charity work.
would attend the meetings of the
'" b. A. and could put themselves in
position to find out the facts in
each case, there would be less criti
clsm, less friction and misunder-
standing Also in this case the wo-

assistance and advice of the commit

DR.. BANKS A GREAT SPEAKER

Those people who braved the cold
wind Tuesday night to hear DR..
Louis Albert Banks at the Methodist
Church were wei repaid. His hap
by manner was a treat. The facts
he gave regarding the prohibition
fight were most stirring.
A striking illustration of the good
results financially of prohibition as
compared with licensed saloons he
says is Kansas and Missouri. Mis-
souri, naturally a much richer soil,
an older state, more water courses,
more rain fall has continued under
licensed saloons Kansas right by
her side voted dry 80 years ago. In
Missouri one farmer in a hundred
owns an automobile and the average
amount per citizen in savings banks
is $40. In prohibition Kansas one
farmer in every four owns an auto
and the average amount in the saw
ings banks is Sis for each citizen
In the state,
Kansas has no state debt and ST.
250,00000 cash balance in the trea-
sury.
Dr. Banks predicts a desperate
fight on the part of the liquor in
terests, put expects soon to see ma
tional prohibition.
Dr. Eichelberger of tie Georgia
Anti-Saloon League was also present
and told something of the work in
Georgia.
A comparison of court records in
Georgia for 1914 with 1907 shows
great improvement under even the
imperfect prohibition law of our
state.

BELL STOCK FOR employees NOW

The American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company announces that ar
rangements have been made by when
employees Of the Bell system have
been two years or more in the service
and who so desire may purchase stock
of the Company for $1,000 per
share on easy terms of payment.
No employee can purchase more
than share for each 100000 of an
nual wages he receives, nor more
than ten shares whatever his wages.
The terms of payment will be two
dollars per share per month beginn-
ing with March 1915, and the quart
ly dividends paid on the stock will
go towards paying for it after de-
Quoting enterest at per cent per
annum on the unpaid balances.
The Americans Company has paid
s per cent dividends for seven years,
and it is calculated that dividends at
this rate and the two dollar pershare
per month payment by employees
will pay for the stock in full by
November 1918. Amy employee who
so desires can after March the LIST,
1917 but not before pay in balance
on his stock and receive his stock
certificate.
Should an employee leave the SER
vice or die before his stock is fully
paid for, the amount he has paid in
plus the accumulated dividends (less
. per cent enterest will be paid back.
The American Telephone and Tela-
graph Company is the parent COM
pany Of the Bell system which oper-
ates or connects with eight and half
million telephone stations through
out the United State.
1t has about sixty thousand stock
holders and one hundred and sixty
thousand employees. Its issued CAPT
tai stock is nearly $350,O0O,OOO.OO
and is quoted on the stock exchanges
at about one hundred and eighteen
dollars per share.
The Company makes it plain that
no employee is under any obligation
to buy any stock but it is believed
that a considerable number of en-
ployees will take advantage of this
opportunity to save a little money
every month and invest it in the
business.
