Why Ohio is still classed as a doubt
full state 10 one seems really 10 know.
Ohio has bolted the Republican ticket
only once in fifty years, and that was
in 1912, when The Roosevelt Taft split
gave the state TO Wilson. But in 1912
the combined Taft-Rooseyelt vote was
S5.1il greater than the Wilson vote.
The Republican party in Ohio is
united this year on national issues.
There is no question about that. Also
the Democratic party is filled with dis
cord.
But still the Democrats claim they
will carry the state for Wilson. The
Republicans are asking how. Ohio. il

With tho presidential election only

MORE BONDED DEBT IS
BEING FIGURED WITH

ATLANTA, Ca, Aug. 2.-The state
o. Georgia will be entirely free of
bonded debt at or before the maturity
OF the proposed $1O,OOO,OOO W. & A.
extension bond issue, which has been
approved by the senate committee. The
present bonded debt of the state is be-
Ing reduced by specified amount each
year under the operation of a sinking
fund, and the proposed w. & A. bond
issue will be reduced annually by the
1essees of the completed road, so that
by the time the new issue of bonds
natures the state will be entirely free
OF bonded debt.
The new state bonds will be unique
among investments of this kind, in
that both principal and interest will
be provided for at the outset without
ever calling on the taxpayers for one
penny. Every dollar will be invested
in productive property which will
greatly enhance the property already
owned by the state. In fact, it is
stated that as soon as the extension is
completed the enhancement value of
the total state road system from Chat
tanooga to the sea would be sufficient
to cover the entire issue of bonds.
For these and other reasons, in ad-
dition to the sterling credit of the state
ii Georgia, it is expected that the bonds
will be in great demand among the
most conservative investors in all
parts of the country.

COLUMBUS, Ca, Aug. 2.-The In
dustrial Index says in it's issue for this
week:
Just about two years ago the begin
ming of the great conflict in Europe
inaugurated in this country a period of
business depression that was bad of
itself and constantly threatened worse.
Commerce dwindled mills and factories
were shut down and prices for farm
products went to the bottom. For a
time there was no ray of hope. The
brightest feature was the way in which
business men held on and in many in
stances struggled on.
To-day the conditions are quite
different. The conflict in Europe con-
t'nues, but it has helped to a great de-
gree to make business in this country
acquire an Unprecedented volume in
some respects. Commerce is at a high
tide. Mills and factories have so many
orders that many of them are being
operated overtime. The prices for
farm products are good and the price
of cotton is very satisfactory. There
is activity throughout the country. In

country is doing big sales business

QUIET WOMAN WAITS
FOR LAWS ACTION

ATLANTA, Ca, Aug. 2.-'Fhere is a
quiet, but attractive little woman seen
about the capitol every day, watching
and waiting for final action on the bill
which will give women the right to
practice law in this state.
While other women are eagerly ac-
tive about the bill, she looks on, but
with an interest deeper than that Of
any of the others. She is Mrs. Minnie
Dupree Hale, graduate OF the At
lanta Law school about three years
ago, who has sought by every possible
means to secure the right to practice
Eer profession in Georgia. right de-
MED her under present laws. She ex-
Iamining board rejected her and the

antly gratifed. 1t was the same when
the senate committee gave its favora-
HE approval to the bill, and now she is
waiting the final action of the senate
with confidence that brooks no oppo-
sition.
Since Mrs Hale's graduation, the
Atlanta Law school, along with many
others, has gone wholly to night
classes for the benefit of those who
must work their way to education. But
when the senate puts the woman aw-

profession hitherto closed to them.

NEW FISCAL SYSTEM
FOR ENTIRE STATE

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 1.-The most
important reform now pressing for at
tention before the legislature of Geor-
gia, according TO Representative Gull
pepper, of Meriwether county, one of
the leaders of the house and an infiu-

complete reorganization Of the fiscal
system of the state.
There will shortly come before the
house and senate a resolution aprro-
Priating $4,000 to employ certified
public accountant for the purpose of
making an exhaustive analysis of the
present system, or lack of system, and
recommending to the next general as
sembly thorough-going re-organiza-

and alleged ineficiency that is now
costing the state of Georgia thousands
CT dollars every year.

WHY MEN
Chew TOBACCO
It's the Only Way That Rea! Tobacco
Hunger Can Be Entirely
Satisfied
"PENN'S THICK" THE ideal. CHEW

Since tobacco was first introduced
to civilization, nobody has ever dis
covered so supremely satisfactory a
way to get all the favor and enjoy
ment out Of it as chewing it. And
no other form Of chew can give you
the hearty, wholesome, Juicy favor
that you get from a delicious high
grade plug tobacco, like Penn's
Thick.
The secret of the greatest chew
ing satisfaction lies IN the selection
of your chew. Among plug tobac-
cos the brand that gets the most en-
thusiastic endorsements is undoubt-
edly PENIS Thick. The reason for
this is not hard to find
PENIS Thick is made exclusively
of ripe, white Kentucky Burloy-
the most rich1y-Aavored chewing to-
bacco that grows Still more. only
the very choicest Of all the Burley
leaf is used for PENIS Thick, and
you get it's natural flavor.
This choice leaf is selected with
the most painstalling care. is stem
med by hand, is thoroughly washed
free of all foreign matter and is
pressed into plugs SO slowly that not
a drop of juice or an atom OF the
natural flavor escapes.
The result is a sweet, mellow, lus-
;ious, satisfying chew that cannot
be obtained in any other tobacco
than Penn's Thick. Try a 10c cu'

What do you think Of that 10000
