To help the Farmers union In
it's campaign Of education, wherein
several speakers will be put in the
field to explain to the farmers the
ADVANTAGE of holding their cotton
for a fifteen cents market, Governor
Smith Thursday morning gave his
check for $500 to John 7, Mcdaniel
secretary of the Georgia Farmers
union. Mr.. Mcdaniel called on the
governor to thank him for letter
written to Governor O'Neil, of Ala
hama, on the occasion of the cot
ton CONGRESS last week Whreln ne
pointed out the necessity OF hold
ing the cotton crop and marketing
it gradually
In expressing his views on the
cotton situation, Governor Smith
gave the following interview
Thursday;
Il believe that all the citizens
in Georgia will be benefited by the
farmers not sacrificing their cotton
and as I very cordially approve
the work the Farmers Union IS do
ing in this regard | was glad to con-
tribute a little toward the expense
of their campaign.
q feel that the work they are do
ing is for the benefit of all OF us
and not simply for themselves. l
have not doubt that cotton is
worth more than the present price
it 81 bringing.
Il am confident that while the
crop will be good one, the present
price is fixed in Liverpool on the
basis that the present crop IS a
bumper" crop. I heard men in
New York during the past ten days
admit that the present price was
fixed upon the idea that the crop
would run to over fourteen and
perhaps fifteen million bales.
u can understood how this mis-
take has been made Sixty days
ago it looked like the biggest crop
the South has ever had. | have
no doubt that cotton in Georgia
went off Is per cent since that
time, and really believe that the
present price of cotton is fixed up
on the idea that the amount raised
will be from 20 to 80 per cent
above the actual crop.
IF it was today conceded that
the crop would not exceed l3,OOO,-
600 bales cotton would be selling
at fourteen cents. | never felt
more certain that cotton will sell
higher later on.
II would like to see farmers re-
ceive when they sell it's full value,
and even outside Of farmers, |
would like to see our state and sec
ton receive it's full value. A lose
of one cent a pound means 100000
900 loss to the South,
u am sure it is selling several
cents per pound less than it is
worth. Two cents per pound
more even would mean $4,000
600 to the South. | hate to see
our section lose the money"

SOCIETY CHOOSES FAVORITESFROM
1. SELF-CONTROLLED WOMEN

gallery OF history as the most danger
ously fascinating Of their sex are women
who carried their hearts some place less
conspicuous than on their sleeves, who
smiled when their admirers failed in de-
votion, even though the smile tore at the
heartstrings. Whether emotion is shallow
or deep, there is something about un-
certainty that appeals to the love OF the
fighting chance IN every man. For him
the game is in the face always; a doubt
as to a woman's real attitude toward him
keeps the race going.
The woman VINO has solved the secret
of fascination gives these rules to her less
fortunate sisters who are seeking that
subtle attribute called charm:
Charm for Man.
Hide your feelings.
Remember that a man never likes
woman who knows more ABOUT things
than he does himselff
Even IL you know a man is wrong, don't
correct him.
Remember that the man always wants
to think himself the hunter. Be careful
to drop the scent just where you want 1t
picked up.
Give the impression OF being large
minded and large hearted. II you are
not 1t may help you to grow that way.
Praise other women's beauty. This Is
the quickest and surest way Of getting
your own praised.
Take care TO discover q mans good
qualities and talents and praise them
without limit
II a man is a talker let him do most OF
the talking. Let him talk about himself,
even though II bores you.

SUMMER PETTICOAT MODELS

Judging from the large showing of
taffeta numbers, this material is rapidly
returning to favor in the medium-p price
petticoats. The quality, however, must
be of soft finish and not the heavy rus
Ting silk formerly in use. Plaided, striped,
printed, plain, and changeable taffetas
are well represented in the new displays.
Models are showing more fullness at
the skirt edge, but ruffies are used in
scant proportions and plaitings are fatty

new finishing note Is the use Of f1ve
folds about two inches wide at the but

to give a trimming finish.
While narrow effects are much desired.
the extreme styles have been practically
discarded and are only occasionally

Queen Mary, OF England, Is giving So
ciety a thorough house cleaning. Her
mandate has gone forth that extreme
youth in the form OF artificial adorn-
ments must be done away with by those
who hope to appear at court.
The attitude of the Queen Of the largest
empire of earth will no doubt exert
a wholesome influence on English So
fciety at this time. Extravagance and
extremes have marked the fashionable
world for the last decade; and were an
other Marie Antoinette, or Empress Eu-
genie to startle her subjects with the
caprices OF vanity the throne Of Eng
land would be menaced.
More Zeal Than Called For.
Queens act and subjects initiate, and
many women who are not queens will
find simplicity In dress and modesty In
department easier, because Queen Mary
Is not startling the world with her friv-
olity. At the same time any sensible
observer must realize that the we'll
meaning Queen has gone about her house
cleaning task with more zeal than is
necessary.
She needs a good friend to walk be-
side her and prevent her from casting
many valuable things into the fire as she
tides UP her house.
Why should this royal housekeeper Of
English society place a ban upon elbow
sleeves, for instance7 There was never
more comfortable. hygienic, and sensi-
bic fashion than the sleeve which ends
at the elbow.

Of the fabric of the gown, to gather the

Charming Design for the
Little Maid.

Given little girl in the family, and we have the
problem of dressing her. While she is very little girl
the old-tine Greenaway STYLE with yoke and loose
skirt portion, is still by far the best But as the little
legs grow longer other styles are possible
Of course, these must be simple But large or
small, old young, every feminine being wants pretty
clothes, and seek novelty and daintness for the
child as well for her elders
The plain blouse worn by women and known as
the Gibson waist is which is adaptable to the little
maids, and it is much used in their dresses There
is always ornamental feature and as rule this
is in the form of yoke.
YOKES ARE SMALL
All yokes for some time past have been small, and
many of the newest applied so that the waist
would be complete without them. These yokes can
generally be purchased all made if desired but very
pretty effects obtained by using lace net and tuck
ing, and cutting the material beneath away.
OF course, in dress of challs, for instance, in
tended for cool days, it is wise to have some kind of
lining for the yoke and if the callis be considered
too heavy, thin silk will answer the purpose
This little frock shown in the illustration has one
of these applied yokes, and it is the only ornamental
feature of the waist.
The kilt skirt is perhaps the most satisfactory of
all models used in chdrens dresses as it keeps its
shape and gives a sufficient amount of fulness for
grace. "

AS the skirts for practical wear are
mostly in dark colorings this bright touch
in trimming relieves the somber effect.
Black Always Good.
Black petticoats are staple numbers, as
they can be worn with different colored
garments.
New models show wide fiounces IN
English eyelet embroidery over a colored
underlay.- Dark red. blue, purple, and
rose are chosen for these Innings. .
Black and white combinations are as
much favored in petticoats as they are
in outer garments. They are developed
In stripes Of various widths. in silk or
messaline. The stripes are often manip-
ulated in fashion to produce trimming
effects, and the bias flounce or plating
is headed with bands of cross-line cut
to carry out this idea.
