Your “Dollars Do Double Duty” When THERE’S ONLY ONE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION: “Where can I spend my dollars so that they’ll not only benefit me personally by purchasing their full value’s worth but where, in the course of time, they’ll build for a greater community and make me more satisfied with both my neighbors and my surroundings?” It is— IN SHELBY Because Here and here only, can your dollars do “Double Duty.” First, they’ll always get you the ncessities of life at a lower cost than you could buy them for elsewhere. The personal interest our merchants take in each patron to see that he or she is always sati^ fied—often sacrificing profit-—makes^it possible. Secondly, not only do your dollars go farthest, but—by trading here and keeping those dollars at home—you're contributing to our fair city’s PROGRESS and PROSPERITY. t More schools, more churches, better streets, better lighting sys tems, larger city limits, playgrounds, more industries,—in general a more attractive city—are only possible when every citizen puis his or her “shoulder to the wheel” and “pushes” with their “home spent” dollars. We, the undersigned business interests, always have and always will be strong for anything that is good for the community. But remom. her, we need-YOUR CO-OPERATION! y ’ W. C.

I 10 PEN 1 STYLE Marble walls of the Atlanta Federal | penitentiary Friday night housed I George Remus, convicted bootleg king of the middle west, and 11 of his associates. t Royalty was recognized by follow I prisoners, for when Remus entered the prison, coining direct here from ! Cincinnati on board private car, ha was given an ovation to the full ex-* tent of prison rules and regulations, the silent waving of arm's through grated windows. ' The Cincinnati millionaire started . service of a two-year sentence for ' having conspired to violate the Vol* t stead act. He also must pay a fine of $10,000, and at the termination of this sentence wii serve one year in a etste prison in Ohio. His associates, Harry Brown, John Gerhum, Charles Wiseman and George Dater, will serve 18 months and pay fines of $6,000 each: Clar ence Bell, Ernest Brady, Geroge Kil lenbeck and George King. 15 months' sentence and fines of $1,000 each; Harry Gardewing anl Harry Boyd one year and one day and pay fines of $1,000 each; Elmer Roth, 15 months sentence and a fine of $600. Smart Clothes Off. Flashy diamonds, ultra-modem clothes, walking sticks and spnt3 of the bootleg gang gave way to the wool and cotton grey uniforms of the penitentiary. A smile was on the face of each as the change was made.. Acro-is town from the penitentiary Mrs. Imogene Remus, wife of the bootleg king, was a guest at a fash ionable hotel. Mrs. Remus accompan ied her husband to Atlanta, and, at the terminal station, with tears streaming down her face, diamond pendants hanging from her ears and a cluster of diamonds on her finger, left him. In her handbag were two diamonds, the property of her hus band, given to her by him, at their per ting. Saturday she journeys out to the penitentiary to see Remus, ascertain visiting hour schedules and probably take her departure foF Cincinnati. Part of the time, she indicated, she will reside in their mansion, said to be one of the show places of the Ohio city, anil the remainder near her hus band in Atlanta. No Millionaire Row. lietmis and his companions Friday nigh* had not been assigned to gny pm«»n .tWittes not had they been giv en numbers. They were “mugged” and given their first prison bath Fri day afternoon. There is no miliiorrire row in this penitentiary, prison officials declared, nor are the wealthy recognized. Re- . mus will be given ‘ enjoyable v/ork,” the offit nls added, probably as a chemist, he having, it it understood, been a hiLorato'*y worker years ago. “I'm reconciled to my fate, but oh, how I_mi«s my valet," declared the bootleg king, as prison garments were given him in place of civilian clothes. Remus will sweep out his own cell and make up his own bed. vJtemus declared that this was his first protracted vacation, ar.d while “I feel the stigma o* liaving lost my citizenship, I wi’l be .*» good soldier and serve my time.’ He added that he was in hopes of securing executive clem^pcy. The bootleg king and his compan ions are said to have operated on the jnost extensive scale ever known in the middle west. Remus wis said to have owned distilleries and on a raid on “Death Valley Farm.” owned by Dater, federal officers are said "to have found the distributing point for bpotlag whiskey in that section. Those who share prison terms with Reams were said to have been in his employ.
