Uncle Sam to Place
Curb on Radios
BRoADCAsTERs ARE CAUSING
CONFUSION AND FEDERAL
REGULATIONS NECESSARY.

Atlanta, Ga.-The air is. getting
crowded. Broadcasters are causing
confusion and Federal regulation al
ready has become necessary, it was
pointed out here today by radio fans.
Even in aviation there is hint that
lanes in the air may become con-
gested unless air traffic rules are en-
forced.
A little while ago people drought
the air limitless. Surely, we thought,
there can be no crowding in the sky.
That was before airplanes and radio
had become in general use.
If the same increase is made IN the
use of airplanes as has been made in
automobiles, aviators here asserted,
it will be but few years until strict
regulation of aerial highways will be
necessary to safeguard the lives OF
those who travel aloft.
More and more people are reallz-
ing that life and its activities offer
constantly changing and increasingly
difficult problems, some students OF
conditions here declare. We no
longer worry about the runaway
horse soon we will stop worrying
about the speeding auto. 1t will be
the airplane, the family air-flivver,
that Will cause men and women to lie
awake at night wondering ii son or
daughter, out in their plane, will use
common sense and not come crashing
down to earth through carelessness'
At best, it is to worry.

Christmas Pageant at
First M. E. Church

The sacred Christmas pageant of
the Nativity was splendidly rendered
by the young people and the choir of
the First M. E. Church on Sunday
night. A simple setting of green and
white and the costuming of those TAX
ing part gave a realistic touch to the
beautiful story. The music was es-
pecially melodious, the choir numbers
being an important part of the serv-
ice. Miss Catherine Frey read the
story, much of the Interpretation
being in pantomime. Every one took
their part with a sacred impressive
ness and the effect upon the audience
was seen to be that of greatest rev.
erence. A white gift offering was
taken which when combined with that
of Golden Rule Sunday and again on
Christmas Eve is expected to exceed
that of last year, which was $500.
This Fund is for the relief of needy
children of the world, largely those
of the near East.

GOVERNOR CALLS
EXTRA SESSION
GENERAL ASSEMBLY TO CON-
VENE FEB. oath; SCHOOLS,
PENSIONS, ROADS ITEMS FOR
DISCUSSION.

Atlanta, Ga. - Governor Walker
called an extra session of the Georgia
General Assembly to convene Feb
ruary "a, 1926.
In a three-page typewriter an
nouncement the Governor thus de-
cided on the question which has
caused widespread comment; both in
favor and against an extra session. A
formal order convoking the Assem-
bly, will be published later, says the
announcement.
mo personal, political, or contro-
versial subject" will be included in
the call, the announcement asserts,
but matters to be considered will be
limited to measures, % preserving
the honor and credit of the state by
making adequate provision for its OBJ
legations to the Confederate pension
ers and submitting constitutional
amendments to the people for their
ratification; providing or (2) mo-
ern common school and college sys-
tenn, and (3) modern highway sys-
tenn with such statutory educational
enactments as may be necessary to
perfect the school system.
Script Called worthless
Dealing tersely with the matter of
pensions, the Governor expresses him
self as unwilling to disgrace the
state by issuing soap-wrapper script
of indebtedness to float over the
country repudiated by constitutional
lawyers as invalid and dishonored by
banks as worthless, finally to be
bought in by money sharks and pawn
brokers at fifty cents on the dollar,
damaging the states credit, reflect
ing upon every citizen and depriving
the soldiers of their much-needed
money"
Terming the facilities of the whole
university system of the State as
''pitable" and pointing out that while
children in the towns and cities have
"fair educational advantages" those
of the rural sections "have the poor
advantages and any of the mno adj
vantages at ALL" the Governor in his
statement dwells briefly on the SUBJ
ject of education. Georgia, he de-
clares, sis spending a smaller percen-
tage of its wealth on education than
any state in the Union" He is un-
willing for Georgia to stand still, de-
laying the three years relief from
these intolerable conditions"
To the matter of State Highways
the Chief Executive devoted two
thirds of his statement, commencing
with a commentator of the State
Highway Commission, "for their eff
forts to provide dependable road
system without adequate means"
While Georgia's roadways are ma
terially better today than Is years
ago, he says, they at best are "spot-
ted-a patch work with no unity and
no continuity" The Governor de-
clares che is ready to join the high
way board in any constructive pro-
gram to better conditions" and sew
eral attractive plans" will be sub
mitted for consideration of the leg
islature.

City to Issue ''Baby
Bonds" for Paving

Mayor Mayes is delighted with the
progress being made by interested
parties along Central Avenue, Main
and Lee Streets with securing sigma
lures to petitions to pave those thor
oughfares during 1926. During the
last session of the Legislature spe-
cial act was passed authorizing the
City of Fitzgerald to issue bonds in
amounts needed to pave such streets,
on which IS per cent of the property
owners consent to enter into an
agreement to pay in installments of
from ten to twenty years for the cost
of the paving along their street. On
Central Avenue and Main Street it
is the intention of the city to extend
the park reservations the entire
length of the streets, thus making
them each a zone way street, facil-
itating the traffic and at the same
time beautify these streets. About
fifty city blocks are on the program
to be paved next year, which would
add considerable to the appearance OF
the city and the value of the prop
erty along the paved territory.

ADAIR IS PRAISED
FOR HOSPITAL WORK
MAGAZINE PAYS TRIBUTE TO
ATLANTA PHILANTHROPIST
FOR ACTIVITY IN SHRINE HOS.
PITFALLS FOR CRIPPLES.

Atlanta, Ga.-High tribute is paid
Forrest Adair, Atlanta business man
and philanthropist, by Platt Young in
'The City Builder" monthly maga-
zine of the Atlanta Chamber Of Com
merce. Mr.. Adair, who is president
of the Adair Realty and Trust Co., of
Atlanta, is nationally known for his
work in behalf Of crippled children.
He is secretary of the National Board
of Trustees for Shrine hospitals.
In his article, "Cty Builder-For-
rest Adair," which carries a good
photograph of the well known philan-
thropist, Mr.. Young says:
''If we should poll the honor roll
of city's earnest workers, we'd surely
find in all our grind paucity of
strikers. One man who still inspires
our quill, whose name is loudly Choir
used on ambient air is named Adair,
with Christian name of Forrest. To
him we pay debt today for all his
civic action; in work and plan he's
proved the man to finish each trans
action. He led the fight in Scottish
Rite (while some, were blowing bub-
bles) to make a place to mend and
brace all crippled children's troubles
It's we'll worth while to see them
smile, improving bone and sinew
with gladened hearts whose patient
arts will warm the soul within you:
With childish grace each upturned
face, expectant and appealing, bide
DR.. Hoke the gods invoke for NEGRO
mantle healing. This man Adair has
built a stair that reaches unto Hea-
ven, while kindly fate makes real es-
tate a source Of constant leaven; sin
scattered spots he sells some lots and
ninety-nine year retals, but these are
htings providing wings for fleeting
incidentals. He might have made an
esplanade bedecked with bubbling
fountains, or towering high to pierce
the sky have reared chain of noun
tains;. but Forrest brought the Grip
pied tot relief from pain and sorrow,
he'll long endure with. rich and poor
and greet bright tomorrow. For if
we cite our Scriptures right Though
some are most bewilderino we face
the worst unless we first become as
little children"

Stars Give Ideas on
the Perfect Flappers

"What is your idea of a perfect
flapper?" was the question popped
at prominent members of the cast OF
ssThe Perfect Flapper," a First Nat
ional Picture starring Colleen Moore,
and scheduled to open at the Grand
next. Sydney Chaplin, who plays in
This picture one of the best comedy
parts of his career, opined as follows
TONE should take no stock in stories
about flappers being wild In the
present-day world, they are no wilder
than were their grand mothers In
their day. / hope bobbed halr mas
come to stay. 1t is so much more
chic than the old style. Also, 1t Is
more hygienic, easier to wasn' ana
easier to dry and comb"
Frank Mayo, leading man Tor Col
leen Moore, says: 81 believe the ldea
that flappers of today are worse tnan
those Of previous generations is due
chiefly to the enormous amount OF
publicity given them these days, l
sincerely believe that at heart tney
are no different"
PHYLLIS Haver, former MACK oeh-
nett bathing beauty, makes a coun,
+er-attack: ga great deal IS sald
about the 'flapper'; what about the
scakeater' and the 'jellybean'? NO
one makes any alarming cry about
what is happening to our manhood?
Instead the jolly, little fun-lovinI!g
flapper is held up before the public
lydia Knott, who recalls the flap
nar of twenty years ago, has this to
Saw. sHuman nature, to my mind,
has always been the same. This ap-
niles to immature personalities as
we'll as older folk. The girls OF my
day were held more under control
than they are now, but ! think the
modern flapper is simply product
Of the times-frank and daring"
