UNIFORM COUNTY RECORDS
SYSTEMS BEING INSTALLED

ATLANTA, Ca, Jan. 1S.-The new
department of uniform county records
which was established as part of the
office of the attorney general by act
of the last legislature is now an &C
complished fact.
Attorney General Cliff Walker an
nounces the department has been or
gained. Under the act the department
is installing modern, up TO date rec
ords for county officers, gradually ev-
erywhere throughout the state. The
department has studied already the
systems in the best equipped counties
of this and other states, and has al
ready adopted and will have installed
an index system under which any land
deed or mortgage may be located in
one to three minutes, instead of one
to three hours, as is now sometimes
the case even in the largest and most
prosperous of Georgia's counties.

The OPERA HOUSE

At the Opera House Friday, Jan. 10,
the tuneful and familiar airs of that
most virile OF musical comedies, THE
Prince of Pilsen," will be heard again.
The beauty of these songs, such as
The Message of the Violet, THE
Tale of the Sea She'll" The Stein
Song, with its swinging Heidelberg re-
train, the Song of the Cities, Pic
torres in Smoke" and others. have
served in large measure to maintain
9 lasting popularity for this enter
tainment Frank PiXley's story and
lyrics have more poetry and romance
than usually attach to work of this
kind, and Gustav Luders' rhthmic har-
monies retain their freshness and
charm.
This year there is an elaborate re-
wal of The Prince of Pilsen," and
its cast embraces the names of Charles
Fcrne, Estella Birney, Edward T. Mora
Dorothy Delmore, Walter James eco.
{ Hall, Irene Duke, Eldora Stanford,
Frank MacEwan and others. Skill ana
judgement in effecting the alliance of

DON'T "DIKE UP" WHEN
VISITING THE UNFORTUNATE

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 1S.-Leaye your
fine clothes and expensive furs and
diamonds at home when you go among
the unfortunate on errands Of relief.
That's the dope handed out by At
lanta society women, who have made
the discovery, as did the women who
rode the famous Hughes special
through the west and made votes for
Wilson, that poor folks" don't like to
have these outward and visible signs
OF wealth and luxury Haunted in their
faces
The wives of working men in hard
lines are willing to accept the helping
hand if extended to them in the right
spirit and proper manner, but they
can't help feeling uncomfortable when
fine lady comes tip-toeing through
the mud from her Limousine to their
front door, arrayed in all the glory OF
her sables and rubies.

NOW Or NEVER" LATEST
ARGUMENT BONE DRY"

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 1S.-Prohibi-
tionists who want the governor to call
an extra session of the legislature to
pass a bone dry law prohibiting the
shipment of any intoXicants into the
state are using the argument that
anla such law is passed by the
i9l5-iG legislature, which would be
ira session, it is not likely to be
the lawmaking body in case of an eX.
passed at all.
They base this argument on the
fact that Hugh NJ. Dorsey, the gov
ernor-elect, who will take office with
the new legislature in June, an
nounced in his campaign that he
would approve no change in the pres
emf prohibition laws unless the same
had been ratified by the people. In
asmuch as the acts of the legislature
are net referred to the people in the
state of Georgia, which has no ref
crendum like some other states. this
announcement was susceptible of only
one meaning, to-wit, that Mr.. Dorsey
when he became governor would veto
any change in the prohibition law,
whether it were a change desired by
the prohibitionists or change de-
sired by the ti-prohibitionists
Hence now or never" is the ar
gument being brought to bear upon
the governor by those who want him
to call the 1876 legislature in ex-
ira session to pass a bone dry act
in pursuance of the U. S. supreme
courts decision upholding the Webb
Kenyon act.

WALTER RlLANDER
TALKS ON HOW TO
PREVENT TROUBLE

MANY motorists" said Mr.. Rylan-
der this morning. get from 1000 to
10000 miles from their tires.
Others only get three or four
thousand.
Around Americas the roads are
hard and smooth-good roads-there is
no reason Americas car-owners should
get less than eight or none thousand
miles from their tires.
Yet many of them do not get nearly
that much.
Tires are very seldom defective in
workmanship or material. The Good
year Tire & Rubber Co, for instance,
adjusts less than one per cent Of their
output, which is 1900 tires day, be
cause of defect.
Nearly every tire brought to our
garage for adjustment has in some
way been abused
AN automobile tire is like the hui
man body it does magnificent service, II
treated fairly; if abused, it wears out
long before it's allotted time.
For example, here is man who
oyerloads his car, and who seldom
carries the proper initiation, his tires
bend and fieX at the sides until finally
che goes out with a bang. Perhaps
at that moment, the man was DRIVING
at proper speed on good roads and
with no overload. He blames the tire
nine cases out of ten. He forgets the
countless times he abused the tire. One
seldom ruins a tire all at once. He
Goes it by day-in-and-d neglect.
80, in fairness to the manufactur-
ers, to ourselves and to the car-oWners,
| say. Take care of your tires, If you
want to get long mileage from them
AS a help to those who would like
toaget the utmost from their tires, W.
Ii. Scott, special factory expert from
the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., who
is in Americas for a few weeks telling
the car-owners how to get more ser
vice from their tires, has suggested the
following Don't for tire users.
Don't drive underinfated tireG
Don't neglect the little cuts in the
tread Avoid severe iolts. Go over
bumps slowly. Don't ruin your tubes.
Carry them in a bag or well protected.
Don't start or stop suddenly Don't
drive with wheels out of alignment.
Don't fail to use French tale in cas-
ings. Don't run in ruts or scraps
against the curb. Don't allow grease,
oil or acid to remain on your tires.
Don't allow clincher rims to become
bent or rusty. Don't allow rust to col
lect on the rims. Don't fail to keep
spare tires in a cover.
Mr.. p. S. Barnes, another Good
year representative, has put in the
v indow of our garage display show
ing the results of tire abuse; also
showing the tire-savers each motor
list should have at all times in order
t keep from abusing his tires.
1T will pay every car-owner in
Americas to see this display"

Proverbs have great influence with
the Japanese in their daily lives, &C

accounting for tastes). IF in hurry,

Let well enough alone). The mouth
is the front gate to misfortune" (The
