To continue as a downtown

which a downtown location makes
possible. is the decision which the
congregation of the First Baptist

II has been suggested that facilities
be provided for a combined enter

church entertainments could Oe
held, a downtown day nursery and
parlors where under proper SUI err
vision homeless young employed
women of the city could entertain
young mer friends. The tentative
plans also include alteration OF the
present auditorium by increasing its
size and the u OF the gallery. The
proposed addition would give the
church structure a depth OF 140
feet and would cost about 500, 900.
The church and Sunday school are

"Yes indeed. and we have received most ia

"You see, in writing to your references it is
the policy of the Tulsa stores to clear your

Similar conversations take place often in the
credit offices of the Tulsa stores. The closely
woven network of local credit bureaus, operat-

and proves that the only safe way to maintain
credit is payment by the 10th.

. o LIVES like that of Mr.. George D.
Rucker, Of Alpharetta, whose death
befell at. his manhood's golden sum-
NIT, the State owes much of it's goodliest ira
dition and Of its most substantial progress
His interests, like those of his forbears of
the Old South, were abundant and varied.
There was not sphere of the community's
affairs, civic, social, educational or religious
to which he did not give his full, measure of
devotion. AS business leader and bank
president he went forward upon the soundest
principles and with a vision to the broadest
good AS superintendent of county schools
he wrought work that will abide as a bless
ing to children yet unborn. AS a churchman
he showed by deeds his faith in Him who
went about doing good" AS newspaper
man he mustered all these enthusiasms to
the advancement of the common veal.
In this last capacity it was that Georgians
best knew him. The AIpharetta Free Press
OF which he was editor, reflected not alone
his serious interests, but also his rare and
engaging personality. His confreres of the
Fourth Estate held him in heartiest esteem;
and those who had known him longest, in an
irreplaceable friend. It was characteristic
of Mr.. Rucker and Of his type that he gave
the full span and force of his life to the COM
munity in which he was born and brought
up. No fortune or career tempted him from
the familiar paths, that waxed not prosaic
but charmful and more dear as memories
deepened about them and the days duty be-
came the lifetime's delight.
Out Of such loyalties grow the richest sat
isfactions and through them is conserved hu-
manity's widest wellbeing. That he lived
and labored his best for those amongst whom
he was born-is not this record to be cher
ished?
