THEY SEE LIKE GLENN
THE WORK OF OUR EX-GOVERN-
OR WINS APPROVAL.

En- Governor Glenn is adding to his
reputation by his trip through the
South in stirring up the Southern
Presbyterlans in the large plans for
Missions. OF his coming to New Or
leans, the Times-Democrat said edi-
torially:
h CONCLUSION of his term in
the S~ubernatorial chair, Governor
Glenn announced his determination to
give one year to religious work. Since
January l, when his term expired, he
has been preaching the cause of re-
lisiOn in the homes in a number of
cities throughout the country. As a
forceful and eloquent speaker, the
distinguished North C%arolinian has
earned a national reputation. In the
course of his political career he has
spoken at many notable public gath
erinSs. His contribution of a years
undivided service as lay preacher, TO
the cause of Home Missions, is. we
believe, unique. His meetings else
where have been largely attended and
S~rat.fNingly successful. To the ora
tOrlcal power, native ability and sim
cerity that made him-a popular and
successful Executive, he adds a ferVor
and devotion in the Christian
that wins and inlpresSeS his audience
The Atlanta Georgian thus editori-
ally writes Of Ex-Governor Glenns
work:
Wy - W lIolo Tx I'll
thusiasm Which Ex-Governor r. 3.
Glenn seems to be arousinS all oVer
the South in Home Missions. Nothing
Ike it has recently been known. On
relinQuiShing the relnS some
time ago, his former chief magistrate
of the Tar Heel State gave his ser
vices to the Home Mission Board OF
the southern Presbyterian Church tor
an active campaign OF one year. HIS
gifts as an orator We're We'll known.
But we doubt if even the most mt
mate friend of Ex-Governor Glenn
realized what it meant to the cause
of evangelism for this distinguished
layn1an to enter h list. In klndllnS
the popular interest upon the great
subject of missions he has been q con-
secrated brand Of fire. And what the
result will be nc one can foreshadoW;
for ne has only commenced.
All of which is very pleasant to the
host Of friends Of Ex-Governor Glenn
in North Carolina.

GENERAL STRIKE
IN FRANCE NEAR
P. 7. 7. Now in Position
to Go Out
(By the Associated Press.l

Paris, May 6.-The famous p. T. T..
tina IS, the posts, telegraphs and tele-
phone employees association, today
threw down the gage of battle to gov
by transforming itself into a
syndicate. or union, under the law of
1884, this placing the association on
the same footing With workmen's
unions with the right to strike against
the state employer, as the workmen
the privilege of doing against
private employers.
The defiance, which is nothing short
OF open revolt, came as a sudden and
sensational seque Of Premier Glenn
enceau's failure this afternoon to re-
celNe a ~deputatiOn of postal employees,
who called to present demands for the
redemption Of promises which they
claim the government made when
the recent strike was declared off.
The Premier was i'll and confined
to his room, but the delegation pre-
tended to believe that his indisposition
was simulated.
The action of the organization was
what the French call a coupe de thea
tire, but if it proves successful, it
would be more like a coupe d'etat, as
its purpose is to make the employees
the masters and not the servants of
the state.
The most serious aspect of the stu
alton is the fact that the leaders in
this new movement are undoubtedly
hand in glove with the moving spir-
its Of the General Federation of La
Dor, which is now universally recog-
niZed as a evolutionary organization
and which a for a long time been
preparing for a general strike to de-
stroy capitalism The suppression
of his organization has frequently
been contemplated by the French gov
eminent.
-0,t,, l. . 49, ~ x-1-1-
ton of the postal employees have had
their eyes opened to the revolutionary
venture on which the militants pro-
pose to embark and have broken
away. There are loyal servants enough
to form a working nucleus to fight a
genera strike, which tonight is con-
Sidered a matter of hours.
Up to a late hours tonight the gov
eminent had given 10 sign as to what
move it intended to make.

EVERY MEMBER IS
URGED To ATTEND
History of the CIub-Work for
Every Citizen Who is Interested in
Hattiesburg.

On account of the meeting of the
Retail Merchants Association it has
been decided to hold the annual meet
ing of the Commercial Club at the K.
of P. Hall next Monday night instead
of Tuesday night, and the directors of
the club are anxious that this shall
be one of the largest meetings in the
history of the club. At that time the
work that has been done in the past
three months will be reviewed and the
work that is to be done next year
will be discussed and there is every
assurance that there will be a pro-
gram outlined which will give every
member somtthing to do if he will
only do it.
The energy of the secretary for the
past three months has been directed
toward securing lands which may be
sold to actual settlers at prices which
will induce immigration and the report
which will be made is very encourag-
ing. The interest that is being mani
tested in the subject of cut over lands
in Hattiesburg is spreading all over
South Mississippi and cooperation is
being offered by other clubs which
shows the influence of the Hattiesburg
Commercial Club.
Every business man in the city is
invited TO be present and become a
member of the club and lend his in
fluence to the upbuilding of Hatties-
burg.
