NEW MAIL BOXES
ARE BEING PUT UP
The Old, OeIapidated, and Un-
slightly Street Letter Boxes
Are Being Replaced by Hand
some New Ones, of the Latest
Design, Attached to Artistic
Concrete Posts.

After many months of persistent ef-
fort, Postmaster l.. J. Leavy, Jr., has
at last succeeded in securing, from
the department at Washington, a ship
mentof new street letter boxes, to
replace the old, delapidated and I'M
slightly ones which have been in SER
vice for years, and which were begin,
ming to get in unserviceable condi-
ti0n.
The new mail boxes received a few
days ago are of the very latest design,
and will be with a great deal of plea
sure and interest that the old ones
are to be replaced with these modern
new boxes, which are rapidly being
installed at the regular stations.
The new boxes will be mounted on
artistic concrete posts, also furnish
ed by the government, and will prove
quite an Improvement in the appear
ance of the street corners on which
they are located. Twelve of the new
boxes and posts have already been
placed in position, and the work of
replacing the old ones will 60 forward
as rapidly as possible until all have
been put in position. The recent in
clement weather has served to delay
the work, which, it is hoped, can be
completed by the end of the week.
Enough boxes and posts have been
received to replace all letter boxes in
the city, and "a schedule of the daily
and Sunday hours of mail collection
will be placed in small bulletin space
provided for the purpose.

FORMER BRUNSWICKIAN
IS HERE ON HIS YACHT.

Dr. Harry A. Lawton, former Bruins
wickian, now of Miami, Fla, and
Warren, Ohio, dropped in" yester-
day on his handsome yacht, the Loaf
along" which is moored at the Down
ing wharf, between Gloucester and
Monk streets. He is enroute from
his palatial Miami home to- Long
Island and is making the "trip leisure
ly up the coast and expects to stop
at all places of interest enroute.
DR.. Lawton removed from Bruins
wick nearly thirty years ago and of
course, notes many changes in the
city. Many of his former friends have
passed away or removed from the city
but there are still scores here who
are delighted that he is again among
them if even for short time.
DR.. Lawton practiced his profession
in this city and for few years after
leaving here but he has long since
retired. He invested heavily in Miami
real estate as we'll as realty in other
parts of Florida and is also interested
in the banking business, being adirec-
tor of the Fidelity Bank and Trust
company, of Miami, as well as other
institutions in that thriving city.
DIR. Lawton and the "Loalalong'
will remain in the harbor for a day
OR two, anyhow until the weather
clears and his old time friends are CIV
ing him a cordial welcome.

NO SERIOUS CRIMINAL,
CASES ON THE DOCKET

1t is a matter of general interest
and condition which speaks well for
law-observance in Glynn county, that
there is not d single murder case. or
even a serious felony case of any char
acter whatsoever. on the criminal
docket at the present term of Glynn
superior court. AS a matter of fact,
it has been several terms since Glynn
county had a murder case ON its court
docket, and unless such case has de-
veloped in recent months there is not
a single murder case pending in the
entire Brunswick circuit, record that
can hardly be equalled in the entire
state.

COMMITTEE NAMED
BY The ELkS LODGE
Will Take Up the Matter of Buy
ing Property Known as 1.-The
Elks' Home. Lodge is Said
to be Overwhelmingly in Fa-
vor of the ProposaI.-Many
Will Go to Savannah.

One of the most important meet
ings of the year was held by the
Brunswick Lodge, B. P. o. f., at the
club rooms of the organization last
night, at which time the matter OF
purchase of the property known as
the "Elks' Home was taken up, and
gone into at length, with the result
that a special committee was appoint
ed to go into the matter, and to make
a report at a subsequent meeting to
be held soon, when final action will be
taken.
The committee appointed to handle
the proposition is composed of J. L.
Andrews, A. j. Gordon, and W. J.
Butts, and will get busy at once with
negotiations looking towards the pur.
chase of the property: 1t is under
stood that the sentiment of the club
is Overwhelmingly in favor of buying
the home, which Is one of the most at
ira active and valuable pieces of prop
erty of the kind in the city, and ad-
mirably adapted to the requirements

The building is at present owned by
the Elks Building Company, an organ
ization formed especially to take over
the property for use of the club, and
since tsfacquisition, the old colonial
building originally residence, has
been considerably improved, and plac-
ed in first class condition.
A lot of work has recently been
done on the building, and the grounds,
and it has been placed in first-class re-
pair. 1t is not known just what the
consideration will be in the proposed
transfer but it is certain that the
deal will involve quite a large sum
of money, but its purchase will give
the Brunswick Elks one of the most
attractive and conveniently fitted up
homes to be found i'll the state. The
central location of the property also
adds to its value.

A General Regulation.

The arming of the employees is in
line with the policy adopted a few
months ago to guard carefully all val
liable mail. Only one door of the
postoffice is allowed to be kept open
after 6 O'Clock in the evening and a
guard is kept at that entrance.
The methods were adopted because
of the many robberies which occurred
in the mail service last year all over
the country. Not only are local post
office employees being armed, but the

DENLY ADVOCATE OF
STRONG AERIAL FORCE

Washington, April 25.-Aviation
has been given insufficient attention
"by the people, the Congress and the
Navy" Secretary DENLY declared to-
day before the House Naval Commit
tee. He advocated enactment OF
Representative Hicks bill to create a
separate navy bureau of aeronautics
as first step towards remedying the
deficiency.
"A modern fleet is blind unless ii
has air auxiliaries," he said, land we
hope that by working out present
plans we can always be assured that
an American fleet will never meet a
hostile force which overmatches II
in the air."
Committee members asked ques-
tions to bring out Mr.. Denby's opinion
of the value of a wholly separate air
organization, independent of both
War'and Navy Departments, as part
of American military organization,
but he asked to be excused from
comment.
