BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO
OUR SENATOR SELECT

Bishop Warren A. Gambler. of At
lanta, speaking Of Hon. Nathan p.
BRYAN, Just before the primary said:
eyes, know Nathan Bryan well and
love him much He is one of my old
boys, as was also his brilliant brother,
the late Senator William J. Bryan, who
died all too soon for the good of his
state and the whole country. During
the years of my connection with Emory
College no nobler young men or more
successful students came to the instl-
tuition than the Bryan Brothers. They
were spOtless in character and gifted
in intellect. Their success, so marked
and speedy after their graduation
brought no surprise to any who knew
them at Emory. Had win lived he
would have rendered the highest ser
vice to his native state of Florida
and to the whole nation, and while |
scrupulously avoid taking any part in
political matters | can not but hope
that Nathan may be chosen to fill the
high place from which his lamented
brother was taken by an untimely
death. He is well qualified for the
position. While in college he studied
with great care the historical and eco
nomic subjects so intimately related to
the subjects of federal legislation, and
since his graduation he has been equally
diligent in the investigation of these
great themes.
"More than that, | know that he un-
derstands and respects the federal con-
stitution, which is no small thing to say
of man seeking seat in the United
States senate in these days when few
care enough for that great instrument
to apprehend its extraordinary excel,
lencies or to stand for it after swearing
to support it. :,
"If the people of Florida should
choose Nathan Bryan for one of their
senators they will have representa-
tive in the national senate of whom any
commonwealth might be proud-a clean
man, a brave man, an unpui chasablt
man and very able man."

TOM CORWINE APPEARS
WEDNESDAY, EVENING

Tom COrwine, the famous polyphOnic
imitator and fun maker, is the next
Lyceum attraction to appear in the I'M
movement club hall next Wednesday
evening.
There are many entertainers whose
business it is to make IN public laugh
actors, magician', elocdtionists, etc.,
but as an imitatOr and humorist, Tom
Corwine stands alone. His personality
ia sufficient to win an audience, and as.
the greatest imitator on the American
stage. in connection with his humorous
and literary selections, never fails to
more than satisfy his audience with an
entertainment of pleasure. Many OF
his limitations are so wonderful, that it
leaves the audience spell bound, doubt
ing whether he has not some artificial
means to assist him. His abnormally
developed faculty of imitation, working
upon lungs, mouth and lips, is all the
assist ance required. His humorous
sketches are irresistibly laughabies|and
in this alone ne can entertain his listen
ers for whole evening. a,
The entire program is absolutely or
the highest order, as is evidenced by
the many church engagements filled
during the past seasons. Tom Cor
wine cannot be surpassed.
Hear Corwine once and you. must
have him again. This is what some
who have heard him say: HE is all
right" when can we have him
AGAIN., "The best entertainment we
ever had That was different from any
other entertainment ever attended"
"Corwine gives US nothing but clean
fun" He will make you laugh without
being ashamed of yourself He will
make you think without feeling that
you are bored bya morallzlng tale. ne
prescriptions. He will rest your tired
brain and make your soul cleaner than
hef re. Hear Corwine. he is all right.

which the college sends out to assist
the farmers in planting model Of
chards. you tell us the varieties
you want" he said, "and We. Will
tell you whether they are all right
and in what, proportions you should
plant them"
Another interesting address was
made by Prof. Miller on the corn
ear and root worms. He began by
stating that the animal loss from
insect pests in Kansas alone Is about
$25, ,0OO, 600. People think a bug
is little thing, too small to be no.
ticed, SO they do nothing about 1t
until their growing crops are infest-
ed and about to be destroyed. Then
they write to US and want US to send
some OF our doctors from the col
lege to go up and drive the bugs
away. But in nine cases out OF ten
it's too late then. An entomoligist
can't scare the pests away by wave
OF his hand"
The only effective way, he said
to deal with the corn ear and root
worms was to do thorough winter
pluwing or Jiiscing to depth oi
Hbout three inches. The grubs hiber'
lrate in the ground at about that
depth, and when turned up by tht
plow and exposed to the elements
