The founding of the city Of San

carry out the conversion OF the Indians
and to stop French cncroachments.

CITY COURT TERM
WAS VERY SHORT
JUDGE AND BAR DECIDED
NOT TO TRY STRONGLY
LITIGATED CASES

The recent decision OF the Supreme
Court of Georgia holding that certain
City Courts of the State were not Con-
stitutional Courts and that litigants
were debarred from taking their cases
direct to the Court of Appeals occa-
stoned a brief term of the City Court
of Dawson. While the decision did
not apply directly to the local court
the judge and the bar decided that it
would be better not to try cases
strongly litigated until the matter was
determined definitely, and only jail
cases and uncontested cases were tried.
Recently the Supreme Court has
withdrawn the decision which had
caused a sensation in legal circles, and
seemed to necessitate a special session
of the legislature to remedy, the mat
ter is left in very uncertain position
at present.

Where to look for Style

YOU'LL have to go farther
L than the design of a suit for
style; just as you must go farther
than the shape of a violin for it's
worth
Agreat part of style is in the
fineness of materials; the expert
ness of workmanship
These things give the design it's
best expression and keep it that
way
Hart Schaffner & Marx style is
not only a matter of design but
of fine quality, too

AN AUTO BATTERY IS MISTER
IOUS TO MANY

To most automobilists the inside Of
a battery is a subject of considerable
mystery. Most of them know that
the box does not contain a series OF
gears and pinions such as ars found
in the transmission, but aside from
that their knowledge is more or less
nil.
Although the extensive use of the
today has necessitated a
general all-around knowledge of the
elementary mechanical workings of
the machine, few people bother to
find out what makes the battery do
the excellent work it does. Often
times, it is not until the starter re-
fuses to work and the crank as well,
that the automobilist wakes up to the
fact that his machine has a battery
in it which he has given no care.
Service station men all over the
country are united in a desire to
educate every car owner as to the
inside workings and the proper care
OF the battery. 1t is to their inter
ests that car owners should be able
to get the maximum use from their
batteries.
