Atlanta, (Ja.* N<4gbbor?
who have complained that the zoo,
which Asa G. Candler, Jr., a coca-cola
heir, has collected ami established in
the front yard of his estate here is
not only noisy but slightly smelly, reported
tonight that there was less

ior an answer to a request by the
neighbors thut he move the zoo, said
to he one of the largest private collections
of animals in the country,
to another portion of his estate. Il?
was variously reported "down at the
zoo," "out for a ride" and "out of
tuwn." 0 v
Plans are going ahead, meantime,
for a formal opening of the zoo Saturday,
when the public will he admitted
for a price, the price to go to
the benefit of a crippled children's
home. Four imported German ponies
will pull a miniature stage coach and
Rosie, world's largest elephant, will
do some tricks. The entire program

V The curator of the zoo announced
today that the cugoft were always
' "v thoroughly cleaned; that there was
no way any of the animals could
escape. W. li. McClellan, however,
nays that perhaps thoy cannot escape,
hut he saw four Negro zoo attendants
catch a monkey about 30 feet
from his house and that another time
' an animal, which he took to he a
chimpanzee, escaped.
Neighbors said tonight that they
did not want to go to Court, but that
if they could not get Candler to move
the zoo somewhere else, they would
try to Toree its removal on the
grounds that it was a nuisance because
of the odors and danger that
some of the animals _ might escape..
Mc'Clellan, who lives within 100 feet (
of the zoo, said that some cockatoos
were especially noisy.
- l>r. J R. Kvans, health officer of

become independent within a year after
moving from mill villages where
work stopped. It was an experiment
of the Red Cross, begun late in the
spring of 1031, and the families were
I supported until the first crop could be
raised. Some had never been on a
farm before. Their work was closely
supervised. They paid $25 a year
rent from cotton grown and bought
their own fertiliser, but special stress
was placed on food crops for animals
and humans, including large gardens.
All worked hard and long hours and
took pride in their labors. The experiment
started with 10 families and
$5,000 from the federal department of
labor, and this spring 32 more families
were added to the colony. This
year each farm ?$t $100 of the federal
crop loan and will repay it this
fall. Now, all 42 have made arrangements
for themselves for next year,
and some contemplate buying the
land they have been farming. The
success of the plan has attracted national
attention. n q

A Good Name
Is still more to be desired
than great riches
f
Prices of good goods are as low today as
they can possibly be and yield the maker
and seller a legitimate profit.
Try your own store before you turn to the
"speak easy" .-hops that sell cheap shoddy
merchandise and have nothing to offer but
price.
If you can stili buy the best by all means
do so and i: you can't, buy the best you
can afford.
Vou will not only benefit y^J^elves but
you will perform a great service to the
whole country by patronizing stores who
always offer merchandise of standard
quality and are interested in the service it
gives you.
