$25 to $3.50 Per 1000
BY ESTES DOREMUs.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ATLANTA. September Lumber
here has jumped from $25 to $3.50
per thousand feet as a result of the
railroad strike and the record smash
ing building activity in this section.
Building permits issued so far this
year involve the expenditure here of
more than $4,000, 900, a sum 100000
in excess of the entire building pro-
gram in 1921. August building ac-
tivities totaled s1,900.000.
Excellent agricultural prospects in
this section, with indications of con-
tinued high prices for cotton. have
kept the general business situation
on sound footing in spite of the
strikes. and the outlook for fall trade
is most encouraging.
Bank clearings are increasing
steadily, money is plentiful and
wholesalers and jobbers report a. good
demand for fall goods with collec-
tions excellent. Retail trade is BRISK
and while profits are not large the
volume of business is satisfactory. =

New York that broke all records for the
receipts from a musical comedy run In

BY a curious turn OF fate Miss Miller
was compelled to be absent from the
production during It's last week here for
the first time during its engagement.
She was away for three performances
because OF a cold. She returned to the
cast on Thursday. Her part was played
during her indisposition by Miss Gloria

Perhaps due to her absence rumors
of her impending marriage to Jack Pick
ford revived again with renewed vigor.
One story was to the effect that they
were already married. A prominent
Broadway manager said he'd heard they
were to be married this next week in
Boston.
