"ALADY OF QUALITY"
AT RYLANDER TODAY

One of the greatest romances
known to literature is brought to
life in the perturbation of Frances
Hodgson's Burnett's "a Lady of
Quality" which is showing at the.
Rylander today and Tuesday. 1t is
the glowing, pulsating perturbation
of the life and love of Chlorinda
WiIdairs, the highly toasted beauty
of the most voluptuous, extrava-
ant, colorful court ever established.
"a Lady Of Quality" is one of
the three big Universal Super Jewels
Of which Universal ordinarily make
one year, but which this time have
been produced for almost simultane-
ous released with f'The Hunch-
back of Notre Dame" and Merry
Go Round" completing a great trio.
The featured player of "A Lady
of Quality" is Virginia VaIli, and
many of the readers of the Frances
Hodgson Burnett novel will no
doubt see her in their ideal choice
for the heroine. Milton Stills, play
ing opposite, looks ideally strong
and firm in the role Of a gentleman
and soldier of the year 100. 9th

The Leslie boys left the leading
city of the Fifteenth district Thurs
day afternoon for Ashburn to parti-
cipate' in the annual scholastic
tournament. The better of the two
teams won, without the shadow of
doubt, but the Union High lads put
up magnificent defense. They
fought as if their lives depended on
winning the game. They lost, but
they lost to good and a better
team.
The news received from the high
ly tutored Leslie lady was greatly
surprising to local lovers of the
cage sport. The faithful fans left
behind We're very much grieved to
their hearts depths. Furthermore,
the officials of the tournament
games stated that the Union Hi
Marshallyille game was the best
played thus far in the tournament.
This gives the boys still a more
cheerful consolation. They lost

into thoroughly w. T. Lane, city attor-
ney with bills handed him by dissatisfied
patrons on his desk, represented these per-
sons in the discussion. The question was
fairly presented and an honest agreement
entered into an effort to find the cause if
any for existing dissatisfaction.
The South Georgia Public Service Com
pany, upon suggestion of City Attorney
Lane, has agreed to the following PROPOSE
ton:
Twenty gas meters will be taken at random
from the homes of gas consumers in the
presence and under the direction of city En-
gineer, Chas Wheatley. City officials will
designate the homes from which these met
ers are to be taken, and city officials will di-
rect every step taken In the testing of these.
Full publicity will be given the results of
these tests. In every instance where it is
found gas meters have registered more gas
than is consumed, Gin the event such condi-
ton is found) the South Georgia Public Ser
vice Company will make immediate adj
Al &C l.. +ho
past all meters have been tested at periodic
intervals in order to insure accurate regis
tration of gas consumed. This practice will
continue in the future.
In the matter of testing the quality of gas
furnished patrons In Americas, the South
Georgia Public Service Company has agreed
with City Council that demonstration of
the British thermal units contained in gas
manufactured in its plant here shall be made

ent and witness this test when same is made.

ditions as city authorities designate.
