ATLANTA, Ca, February lido
hayward girls really want to turn
from their hayward ways and lead
better life?
Some sociologists claim they do not.
contending that work in their behalf
is rewarded only in rare cases by
genuine, permanent success; while
others denounce this theory as inhu-
man and blasphemous.
At least two cases umst be marked
Up to the credit of the former theory,

An early hour yesterday morning
an automobile drove up in front OF
the home, the girls departed in their

they were driven away. The county

SAYS HARRIS WILL
TAKE SOUTH GEORGIA

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 14.-Dispatches
from Washington announcing the
resignation of William J. Harris as
chairman of the Federal Trade Com
Nilsson, to take effect on May 81, have
been received with much interest in
Atlanta, now that the forthcoming
senatorial race has become matter
of Increasing interest.
On leaving the Trade Commission,
it is understood Mr.. Harris will
launch his active campaign for the
Senate against Thomas w. Hardwick,
whose disloyal opposition to the presi-
dent whom he unequivocally pledged
himself to support has brought down
upon him the bitterest patriotic i'm
precation throughout the country.
A prominent Albanian who has just
returned from an extensive tour of
South Georgia during which he visited
practically every county in that Sec
ton of the state expressed the opinion
yesterday that Mr.. Harris is easily
the strongest candidate in the race
against Senator Hardwick.
