THE OTHER FELLOWS SISTER

People are often heard to make
suggestive remarks concerning young
women whom they see ON the
streets but never when husky
male relative is present.
Generally, there is no thought Of
injuring the innocent object of these
remarks. They are horn in
thoughtlessness and uttered in q
spirit of idIeness, vet they carry a
sting that lasts,
II men would confne their
remarks to such as they would APP.

sisters, or such as they would make
in the presence of the father OF
brother of the girl, there would bt
ess vicious remarks and innuendoeS
circulating from lip to lip, and fewer
heartaches when the idle gossip
reaches the parties concerned.
The Lord made tongues that they
might be used to good purpose; yet
the devil often twists them to his
evil ways. 1t makes world Of

YOU'D BETTER LET UP!

During the period Of the World
War there we're twice as many peo-
pie killed by automobiles as were
killed in the war, and yet every day
one can see the laws Of the country
defed as TO the regulations Of motor
traffic.
Right here in Lcesburg, where
the town has been dubbed Sleeping
Beauty where but little passing
to and flo is INDUCED and where
the streets are wide and clean, can
be seen, daily, an indulgence in the
breaking of the speed laws that il
detrimental and dangerous to lille
and limb, and for which there is no
need or excuse.
What's the idea? Better quit
it while quitting is good or there II
he a funeral and court scrape plac-
ed to someone's credit
A word to the wise should be
sufficient.

SEASON TO SOON OPEN AT
TYBEE.

During the coming season Week
End Excursion fares to Tybee and to
other seashore and mountain resorts
will be offered by the Central of
Gorgia Railway. This is an opportu-
nifty that has not been offered the
travelling public since 1916, and one
that will doubtless stimulate travel,
as the very attractive rate Of 80 per
cent, of double the one-way fare is
quoted
In addition to the Weekend Rates,
the Central is also quoting Summer
Tourist Rates, good until October 81.
These are for seashore, lake and
mountain resorts in the Southeast,
and to all parts of the United States
and Canada. These Summer Tourist
Rates are on basis of so per cent.
of double the one-way fare, and are
10 per cent, less than last year.
These substantial reductions in pas
senger fares will enable people to
travel cheaper than they have in the
past six years. The new rates go in
to effect May 10, and will all remain
in effect until September 20. The
Week End Rates will appeal particu-
larly to those who wish to turnover
to the nearby resorts for over Sun
day. Tickets viii be on sale Fridays
and Saturdays, and will permit the
purchaser to return to the starting
point midnight of the following Tues
day.
Tybee will open for the season on
May 10. Tybrisa, the big dancing
pavilion and bathhouse will be better
than ever this year. 1t is now being
repainted and renovated and put IN
the best of condition for the crowds
of tourists. The beach is in fine
shape. and supply of new bathing
suits, new towels, and other equip
ment has just been received.
The Olympia SeXtette, one OF Sa-
vannah's famous orchestras, has beer
engaged for the season and will fur
nish music. The hotels and boarding
houses at Tybee are preparing for a
big season. Many conventions will be
on the Island, and indications point
to the most interesting summer IN
several years at this popular place Of
resort.
The Weekend Fare from Ogle'
thorype to Tybee is 1895 and the
Summer Tourist Rate good for the
entire summer is $500.

Last week we heard citizen re-
mark that the worst trouble with the
country was that the people had
quit work and were standing around
and waiting for the boil weevll or
something else in the form OF q bu-

up.
Well, we don't know about that,
but we do know that farmer who
has plenty OF meat and bread at
home is not going to starve tins

any money to spend. He can sit
down to three square meals a day,

JARVIS SUPPORTS
PARK DANCING

Let the public dance in public rec
reation centers.
r. Walter Jarvis, superintendent Of
parks and recreation recommended
this to the board of park commission
ers, in view Of the fact that the in
junction against enforcement of the
ordinance prohibiting theatricals and
dancing on park property was made
permanent this week.
The board Is considering.
Jarvis said use of the new $4,000
Garfield Park shelter house is cur
tailed by the ban on dancing, remain
ing in the form OF a board order is
sued when the ordinance was passed.
Fifteen organizations in the city nave
requested use of the building, but
withdrew applications when they
learned dancing was not permitted.
Park and recreation authorities
throughout the country have come to
recognize dancing, properly super
vised. as one of the best forms OF
recreation, Jarvis told the board.
The board decided to enlarge Ring
gold playground swimming pool to d
length Of almost a block next sum
mer and abandon plans for a pool In
Garfield Park. Ringgold is only four
blocks from the park. Plans for big
pools in Rhodius and Brookside
parks will be carried on.
