Mr.. Wallace met representative from
the home office in New York and ar
ranged to put in stock OF the Hall

The United jewelers. is a unique or

jewelers. in all parts of the country,
not more than one in a town, each
stakeholder in the company and en-
joying the exclusive privilege of car
rying the Hallmark goods in his town.
Prices are practically uniform in all
parts of the country, SO that anyone
acquainted with the Hallmark line can
buy anywhere with confidence that he
is getting good value, and the same
thing at the same price he would pay
at the Hallmark store in his home |
town.
Each member of the company is
able to judge with accuracy what ar
ticles will find ready market in his
town, and from the reports OF men,
bers it is possible to forsee the de-
nands for such articles. Manufacture
ng is carried on at such an advan-
age, that it is possible to make SUI

AS soon as the equipment lately or.

from the factory and installed here
the local telephone service will be fur
Their improved. The demands upon
the system have increased SO rapidly
that there are now available no priv
ate lines at all, and but few party
lines.
Heavy traffic frequently makes it
necessary to double the force of OPP
orators on the exchange board, one
crew answering calls and another
clearing the board. In number of
instances as many as hundred and
ninety connections have been up at
one time, and it has been impossible
to receive the calls of waiting SUBJ
scribers for want of cords.
1t was Mr.. Meeker's plan to have
the additional equipment he has or
1ered installed by the middle of Sep
,ember, but some weeks will be re-
luired in getting the new equipment
quilt. One more position at the board
will be provided for, and it will be
,ossible to extend the system con-
iderably before the exchange need be
enlarged again.

School association, 1919 Hurt building,
Atlanta, comes the information that
thousands of free programs are being
sent out to the Sunday schools over
the state, and many schools are plan
ming to more than double their attend
ance.
In many places the officers of the
county school associations and the
Sunday school superintendent are
meeting and making plans for get
ting every Sunday school in the cOun-
ty to work for a large attendance
on February 49,. 1t has been ar
ranged for the Sunday school super
intendents of Atlanta TO have a meet
| liz on January "a and discuss ways

That Georgia may be in a state of

Vasion is the aim OF United States
army officers who are now co-operat-

| Holt Nash, of the national guard of
Georgia, in an effort to have the en-
tire state accurately mapped and
otherwise accommodated for military
purposes.
Major General Leonard Wood, COM
manding the department of the east,
took the matter up with Governor
Harris several weeks ago. In reply
. to his communication. the governor
wrote that he would be pleased to aid
all in his power and had turned the
matter over to the Adjutant general.
In reply to letter from the latter
Colonel Edwin F. Glenn, acting chief
of staff, u. S. A., wrote General Nash
that it would be advisable to have a
general map drawn on scale of one
inch to 100000 feet, Incl ing an ac-
curate portrayal of rOaG lamps

physical features required in military

been hampered in their work by lack
of funds. They already have, now

1t is probable, General Nash said
Friday, that the next session of the
general assembly will be asked to
appropriate a sum sufficient to COM

that it is most important that the
country between Atlanta and the At
lantic ocean and Gulf of Mexico shall
be mapped in military manner for
any foreign invasion would head in
land from either coast. Routes and
descriptions OF the railroads and the
navigability of rivers must be set
forth. An aid to this is now being
supplied by the United States en-
