has been built, and $1,000 lumber
mill and a $1,000,000 paper and pulp
mill, and a 100000 cotton compress
has added eight miles of new river
front. This means that there are
miles of sites ideally situated for ship
building plants on solid, firm land
just the proper height above the river
for the building and launching of
ships. In addition, there are other sites
east of the city.
6. At present $12,O0O,O0O worth OF
ships have been or building or con
tracted for by three savannah com
panies. One of these companies en-
ploys 1000 worlmen, another 800 and
the other 1870. 1t is fact that skilled
labor attracts other skilled labor of
the same class. In other words, Sa-
yannah has already sufficiently adj
yanced as shipbuliding center to
attract shipbuilders. Labor conditions
are excellent here
Z. Sayannahs climate being ex-
tremely mild, averaging 81 degrees
for the entire year, is proving to be
a most valuable asset, in attracting
labor to this port. For instance,
since September the Savannah Board
Of Trade has received 125 letters from
skilled mechanics and others-men
living in Ohio, Illinois and other north
ern and western places, Nearly ev-
eryone Of these letters states that the
writer Understands there is great
shuPbuilding and other activity in Sa-
yannah and that he and his family
would like to move there because of
the mild winters The Savannah
Beard of Trade has answered all of
these inquiries fully and has followed
this up at the shipbuilding plants here,
discovering that large number Of
these men who have written the Board
of Trade have actually come to Sa-
Vannah. In addition, number of
these men have called at the Board
Of Trad Offices to thank this organi-
cation for giving them information
which has brought them to Savannah
and stated that they intend to make
this city their permanent homes.

Continued from First Pagc.1
bration this year. But who could
keep a boy or girl off the streets
when there might be a ghost to be
seer lurking behind a tree or in a
dark corner?
Market street. in former years fill
ed with thousands of gay masque-
raiders, had scarcely a small town
crowd out last night. There were a
few hundred who paraded back and
forth, some costumed and masked,
but the throngs of former years were
missing and long before midnight
most of the crowds had disappeared.
Busy in Home District
A different story can be told about
the Hill and uptown districts. The
Youngsters knew that no large
crowds would be permitted by the
police, so small groups OF from live
TO twenty gathered and enjoyed the
usual mischievous pranks. There
were all kinds of costumes and
Youngsters of all ages were out. The
hundreds of windows which have
been smeared with soap show that
the boys and girls We're not missing
any opportunities. That the young
sters are patriotic was evident as
little corr could be found this morn
ing. In some places plenty of con-
fetti was used and the stores did a
rush business in small boxes of
bright colored face paint.
The police, however, had little
trouble in keeping order, and no re-
ports of any serious damage by the
boys and girls, have been received.
While no mandatory order had been
issued against celebrating the holt
day the cooperation of everyone
was shown and there has been no
criticism raised about the small
groups of children and their pranks.
