SUCCEEDED BY STIMSON
Resignation Caused Surprise
in Washington

sumo his duties as secretary of war
on May %, succeeding ]. M. Dickinson,
democrat, of Tennessee, resigned.

New York tomorrow and the definite

The resignation of Secretary Dick

time that the cabinet list would be
changed, caused great surprise here to-
day. The name of Secretary Knox had
been most frequently mentioned in
these reports.

inson and the appointment of his sue
.cessor was announced at the white

new FRUETARIAN
READGEAR HERE
Lack Of EXdCtRGSS, But the
Color is All Right

New York, May 3.-Humanitarians
will be particularly pleased with one
of the most successful ideas in millin-
cry that have been developed with
great success this season. Plumes and
feathers can we'll be given away %
what may be termed the fruitarian
millinery" in which every fruit of
nature is pressed into the service of
trimming.
Frankly, there is often scant re-
semblance to the real thing and a cy-
mic may detect little difference be-
tween a bunch of apples and toma-
toes, but to the woman who loves va
riety and change, the success of this
millinery lies in the fact that the ar
titicial coloring of the fruit has been
brought to a pitch of high artistic
excellence, and she may remark with
truth that after all the color and not
the form is the most important thing
in the accessories of millinery.
Red and YeII0w.
Red, cerise and yellow are the three
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1911-05-14

most prominent shades in the fruita-
rian trimming, and these are employed
in peaches, apples, oranges. plums,
small melons and even grapes
AS berries may come under the no
menclature of fruit, it may also De
mentioned that some of the most
charming hats show red berries that
may be taken either for strawberries
or red cherries. Strings and clusters
of these vivid cerise or red berries
dangle coquetishly over the brim in
front or are laid gracefully in pic
turesque wreaths around the crown,
giving vivid glow of color to an
alleviate or an a1l-black hat
This furniture trimming is especial
ly successful when employed in con-
junction with the striped ribbon bows
that are now so much used. The con-
trast of the fruit with black and
white striped ribbon is always pleas
ing.
The arrangement of the fruit de-
ponds on the shape of the hat. Some
times it is laid in clusters at intervals
round the crown.

.AMERICUS IS GOING TO
The REUNION In FORCE
Veterans and Friends Start
There Today

The Americas party, Confederate
veterans and friends going with them
to the great national reunion at Little
Rock will leave this morning for the
Arkansas capital. The fine trip and
low round trip rate of only $12.15 has
induced a large number to go along,
and Camp Sumter will be well repre-
sented. Many of the Americas party
will spend some time at Hot Springs,
two hours distant, while others will
visit friends in Texas as well. Col. w,

his eloquent voice will resound the
praises of Americas in the convention

LOCAL SCHOOL HAS LEAD
in MANY INNOVATIONS
Commencement Will Bring
Great Surprise

Recently, the daily papers announc-
ed i ndisplay headlines, that an ALL
gusta school had established in con-
nection with the school, a savings
bank Out at the Agricultural and Me-
chanical School they do so many things
out of the ordinary and get so far
away from the beaten paths that when
they have accomplished something Of
great public concern they are not suf-
ftciently impressed with it's import
ance
Long before the Augusta schools
savings bank had been established stu
dents were making deposits in the
Americas schools savings bank The
business of the institution is being con-
Quoted in neat and we'll arranged bank
ing quarters, equipped with necessary
furniture, etc. All the blanks, books,
etc, used by depositors in regular
banks are used by the student deposit
ors. Nearly every student in the school
is depositor The books show more
than one thousand dollars in deposits
The bank cashes all checks and money
orders for students. But little money
is kept on hand, the greater part Of
the deposits being on deposit with a
city bank
They don't make noise about things
out there; they are not noisy crowd,
other than the noise incident upon
work, and that made by the machines
on which they work. One year ago
oats were growing upon the ground
Within the time intervening the best
school shops in the state, other than
at the Georgia School of Technology
and Columbus, has been erected and
equipped. The shops have been equip
ped with new power-driven machinery
From hand power to numbers of mod
ern machines, driven by the generated
Ipower of an engine, is quite a stride
in one year, yet this is not all; they
have installed one of the most effect
i've and neatest little lighting plants
in the state, and now making their

WEAR A White FLOWER
FOR MOTHERS SAKE
This is Mothers Day for
PrOdigaI or Saint

It's well for prodigal or any other
to remember that today is Mothers
Day.
One of the prettiest tributes of mod
ern times is the universal observance
of the second Sunday in May as Moth
ers' Day. This is the day that men OF
all nationalities and creeds, in all
walks of life and in all climes, from
the humblest peasant to the ruler OF
the land, from the brawn-armed la
borer to the captain of industry, and
from the most degraded criminal to the
highest church dignitary, all meet on
the same plane and turn back through
by-gone years to the recOllections Of
their mothers guiding influence and
unite in revering her memory.
The beautiful custom was inaugural.
ed few years ago by Miss Anna Jar.
Wis, who in her worldwide appeal ask
ed that men observe the day by wear.
ing a white flower, the emblem Oi
la pure and stainless life that every
true mother teaches her child to live
The flower that Miss Jarvis loved &C
wear in this connection was white
Icarnation.
When you see man who wears to
day a white carnation remember that
he has thought OF his mother, gray.
haired and feeble though she may be
or young and beautiful, she is still
mother.

says Mad is going to have Christmas

ago"
There's other ways Of committing
suicide" advised Mexican. why don't
you go and surrender to the sheriff."
'Tll get him." said the Kid.
Christmas eve fell as balmy as
April. Perhaps there was a hint OF
I far-away freshness in the air, but 1t
tingled like settler, perfumed family
with late prairie blossoms and the
mesquite grass.
When night came the five or six
rooms of the ranch house were bright.
" lit. In one room was Christmas
tree, for the Lanes had boy of three,
and dozen or more guests were ex'
pected from the nearer ranches.
The guests had arrived in buck
boards and on horseback, and were
making themselves comfortable inside
The evening went along pleasantly
The guests enjoyed and praised Rosi
ta's excellent supper, and afterward
the men scattered in groups about the
rooms or on the broad gallery
smoking and chatting.
