SAVANNAH, Ca, Nov. 1s.-Nowa-
days it frequently occurs in Georgia
that tradesman bowls .sHey" to an
overall clad person and then finds
that he has to tip his hat.
Practical housewives who do their
own work and think nothing Of scrub
bling floors. hanging pictures or wash
ing windows when seated on stills have
reached the conclusions that life is
precarious enough without surround
ing ones self with trip producing
skirts. They are wearing boys size
overalls, and some of the said over
alls have all they can do to remain
boys size.
All the shops in Georgia are special
izing on the little trousers, and they
may now be obtained in white, pink
or blue. Homework is really becom-
ing more and more attractive as the
gears go on, and interest in 1t is be-
coming universal.

WHITE / WAY
Famous Street So Well Known
because of the Great Num-
Der of Signs.

Is there red blooded person In the
United States who has not heard Of the
great white way of New York or who
at some time Sor other: has not ex-
pressed q desire to see its wonders?
The story of this street Of hopes and
Idisappointments, where careers have
been wrecked and glorious futures Sc
cured overnight, has been told in song
and poem on and of the theater's
stage in every part Of the country.
It Is the best advertised street on
earth! R ~.
The answer rests primarily in it's
electric advertising signs. There are
other causes, but this is the biggest
factor.
New York aims to attract the eye
LOT the visitor. It adopts spectacular
ideas. 1t gives the people Of the world
q free show that is talked about when
visitors return home. The big slane

week, November 90 to Decemberf4.
New York saw its first big electric
advertising sign about 1900. It was
erected on the wall OF a building which
stood on the site Of the. present Flat
iron building. Broadway, Fifth ave-
nue. and Twenty-third street. How
swiftly has this art progressed in If

contend that the art Of electric sign
advertising is still in its infancy. It
is considered the major general Of all

The CrOW'S-NeSt

Isn't there some way to protect a
charitable public from being imposed
upon every few days by some uncon-
scionable solicitor or beggar? The
ordinary individual hasn't time to in
vestigate the claims of every one that
comes along asking aims in order to
determine whether the case is worthy
or whether the solicitor is an impostor.
There have been several cases in point
within the last twelve months. One,
where the head of a family collected
more money in a day than the average
man makes in two or three days and
this same individual lay dead drunk in
a saloon town along this line of road
using money in that way which had
been given the family by charitably
disposed persons. A deaf and dumb
impostor worked this part of the state
last year until exposed in a neighbor-
ing town. The procession Of unfor-
tunates and needy ones has m
ed earlier than usual this year and
some plan should be adopted to pro-
tect the community against impos-
tors. Why not have the city council
or the Commercial Club appoint a
committee Of three to investigate all
cases asking for charity and let the
public send such persons to the COM
mittee for endorsement before making
contributions in the way of cash. 1t
would save many impositions.
There is such a thing as riding a
free horse to death. Certain Organiza-
lions thai are disposed to be kind and
generous are too often imposed upon
by individuals and groups of persons
which are more dependent than indie
pendent. Just because the latter have
been the recipients of favors once or
twice they learn to depend upon the
donors 90 much and are apt to lose
their own initiative. Clubs, religious
organizations, and charitable societies
are kept UP for specific purposes and
not to loan their financial help and In
auence too often to those who have
been helped over difficulties one or
more times and who have come to
look upon assistance whenever they
want it as a right not as an encourage
ment. Those who try to help them
selves are more apt to get considera-
ton when they need it.
In a late number of a popular daily
did you notice a picture in the men
Who Fail' column which depicted a
young man sitting in a very fashion
able restaurant with some very e K
pensive viands in front of him who is
apparently saying, II can't afford 1t
but I've got to make a bluff" The
picture is quite true to life.
AS spring approaches there is much
talk of building and the indications
are that there will be quite a number
Of residences constructed this year.
The trouble is at present to get good
lots at a reasonable figure and within
the limits of the best residence dis
tricts. Eight OF ten blocks from the
business part Of the city or from the
college Is about rs far az n wishes
to walk to and fro two or three times
a day. Some one will have to start a
jitney bus line and then lots in the
outlaying additions to the city will
become salable and desirable.
