MISERABLE MIXED
time IS COSTLY

Because something in Cordele mis-
led him as to the departure of his
train, a prominent business man of
Atlanta missed his train yesterday
and had to pay $500 last night to
get out of Cordele by automobile.
He was told the trains went at three
o'clock, He waited till three by the
city clock
And, of course, he got left. He
had to meet an engagement in Macon
and he went by auto, but not until af-
ter it had been impressed upon his
mind that this town is running an
hour behind legal time. 1t proved
costly and confusing and tended to
distract from an even tenor of mind.
He felt cheap when he saw he was
left. He decided that Cordele was
come cheaper when he learned really
what caused the trouble
Others daily are meeting with con-
fusion like this, all due tothe hours
kept by the city clock This exam
pie of yesterday is repeated often
The man went away absolutely car
rying a disposition that would have
made him consent to take a cnnon
shot at the city clock to destroy it.

SETTING GALVANIZED STEEL
CORNER AND END POSTS

Be certain that the bottom of the
post hole Is larger than the top Of
the hole, which will keep the concrete
block from pulling out.
Steel end posts should be provided
with brace rod. Without disturbing
the brace over the brace connection,
rest the end of the brace on the ground
and make mark two or three inches
nearer the post than the end of the
brace. This mark will be the end of
the brace block hole next the post.
Dig another hole IS by 20 inches deep
or little bigger and little deeper, If
the, ground is soft and Yielding This
Is important because this brace block
must be made solid to withstand the
heavy pressure, as 1t carries practical
ly all the strain.
After digging this hole, fill 1t with
concrete, level with the surface of the
ground, attach the brace to the post
connection, attach the brace foot, and
press down in the concrete until 1t is
buried two or three inches below the
surface; then let 1t alone until thor
Oughly set.
The brace collar should be placed
about IA inches from the top Of the
post and the nut turned up very tight.
The collar must not slip. Do not be-
gin stretching your fence wire until
the concrete is perfectly set and hard.
