stone, a noted Episcopal divine,
talked to the young men of his parish
today on the questions asked by em4
ployers in different cities in investi-
eating mans personally.
What man is WORTH said DR..
Stone, SHOULD be transposed to What
is man?
"In Boston one is asked What does
he know
"In New York it is: What does he
get
"In Philadelphia: Who was his
grandfather?
"In Baltimore he is asked out to
dinner.
IN Chicago 1t is asked: What can
he do?'
There are three kinds of men: The
man of yesterday, the man of today
and the man of tomorrow. The first
is not effective, while the last is a
rainbow chaser. The man of today
right now-is the man for pro-
gress OF country and government,

statement of Judge John S. Gambler,
one of the attorneys for the receivers

He said the remaining assets of the
bank were some lands in Alabama and
some lands in Cuba. The Alabama
lands are being advertised for sale, but
it is not likely that deal will be

Europe and French capitalists who had

the lands at public sale. would be a
foolish sacrifice of valuable property
There had been some chance of selling
the property in Cuba until the Cuban

Chief of United States Bureau
SHES at Venturing Guess on
Inaugural Day Skies.

Willis L. Moore, chief of the national
weather bureau. stepped from the
Washington train early today, cooked
critical eye.at the blue sky and greet
ed the reception committee.
"Ah. very nice. very nice indeed" he
remarked. Perhaps trace of humid
ity, but very fair proportion of ozone.
OF course. that smoke-but smokes not
under my department"
nished for his reception by c. F, Won
Hermann Atlanta forecaster. he was
driven to the Georgian Terrace for
breakfast and a conference with eigh-
teen weather bureau officials who
RADIO and other states to discuss ways
and means of helping the. farmer tell
when to get in his hay or dig cyclone
cellar. The officials have been holding
an informal conference for several
days and Professor Moore came down
to greet them and offer congratulations
on their making 90 per cent success
in representations for the past year.
Uncle Hi Disappointed.
Just inside the corridor of the Ter
race stood Uncle Hi Suggs, who lives
out Battle Hill way and is the best and
most voluminous weather prophet in
Georgia, barring the salaried ones who
work by telegraph and barometer I'm,
Gle HI has an apparatus of his own,
and scorns the scientific devices of the
official bureau. But he had come all the
way from Battle Hill, successfully ne
gotiated the storm doors without loss
Of his whiskers, and was prepared to
Join the council of forecasters. He was
disappointed to learn that the sessions
were executive and he couldn't get in.
"They needn't think they've got any
patent on prophesyin' the weather. he
remarked scornfully. I'm willin' to,
back my predictions agin' the best they
can do any time. Didn't | write let

Professor Moore declined to be drawn
into guessing match with Uncle Hi,
though he cast no aspersions on
the amateur forecaster's prognostlca-
tons
Really. / wouldn't venture 10 say
whether the winter will be mild or

cess, but that Is as far as we attempt 10

with accuracy. And while 1t is posi-
BILE that we may reach the point where
we can predict for the coming Summer
or winter, would not venture to assert
that this is probable.
1.-THE forecasts of the weather bureau
have been correct nine times out of ten
In the past year. The department has
only recently been brought up to that
efficiency. While there are kicks from
disgruntled persons who say the bu-
reau is always wrong and ought to be
abolished, these do not come from those
whose lives and property depend on
our forecasts. These have learned how
accurate the department really is. and
understand that 80 per cent is far from
being guesswork."
would you be willing to predict the
weather for Woodrow Wilson's inau-
guration?" he was asked timidly.
Professor Moore looked pained. Per-
haps he remembered the spring of four
years ago when the forecast was fair"
and several regiments of troops and
thousands OF others were snowbound on
their way to Washington and nearly
froze to death. But he laughed and
turned away.
"The lth of March Is an uncertain
season" he replied. I've. got to go
now"

TOO MUCH PLAY MAKES
JACK A DULL BOY, HE SAYS

TOPEKA. KANS., Nov. 14-The
school children of Kansas are up In
arms over a suggestion of Dean c. H
Johnston, of the University School of
Education, who would do away with
school vacations and have sessions six
days a week
Il find no other reason than an old
tradition against holding school classes
on Saturdays" said Dean Johnston.
Neither can I see any logical reason
for allowing the entire educational sys-
tenn of the state to- lie idle for three
months in the year, with its consequent
loss in efficiency. A student or instruc-
tor does not need more than a months
vacation in a year."

HOKE SMITH HERO
IN MACON PARADE
Ten Thousand Cheer Senator
at Big Democratic Jubilee
in Central City.

MACON, GA, Nov. 14.-The cele-
bration of the victory of the Democratic
party by the people Of Macon last night
was an event unsurpassed in the an
nails of the city. A parade two miles
long preceded a jubilee rally at the city
by men of prominence in the national
Democratic ranks.
a significant feature Of the celebra-
ton was the reception accorded SEN
ator Hoke Smith, of Atlanta. All along
the route of the procession he was en-
Enthusiastically hailed and at the audi
forum he was given a tremendous ova-
applause throughout.
Other speakers were Senator A. O..
Bacon, of Macon; Congressman Thorn
az w. Hardwick, of SandersviIe; Rep
resentative- elect Pleasant A. Stovall. Of
Savannah, and Dupont Query, of Ma
con. Congressman Charles L. Bartlett
was called out of the city and could not
attend. More than 10000 people com
prised the speakers audience, but less
than half that number were able to
hear what was said.
Parade Through City.
The parade moved from Third and
Cherry streets at 1880 o'clock and
passed through the principal business
and residential streets. Every homepn
Georgia avenue, College street and Or
ange street, the fashionable residence
section, was brilliantly illuminated and
decorated. Nearly all of the principal
in the business section were
also illuminated. There We're more
than 400 autos in the parade, many
from nearby towns: several thousand
men bearing torches, so floats and as
many other business vehicles, and the
auto machines of the fire department.
Nearly all of the vehicles were hand
someiy decorated.
Fireworks, Too.
The city ordinance against the dis
charge Of fireworks was suspended for
the night, and for several hours the
streets echoed with the deafening deto-
nations of torpedoes and glowed with
he glare Of luridly colored candles.
The celebration Of the Democratic
success at the polls by the people OF
Macon was participated in by practi-
,ally every resident of the city who
was able to leave home for the early
part Of the night. For several hours all
IF the downtown streets were congest-
I'd and thousands were unable to obtain
admission to the auditorium.
kilograms from Wilson and Marshall
were read to the meeting, expressing
disappointment that they were unable
10 attend.
On the night Of Grover Cleveland's
first election Macon celebrated, but old
liners say that that occasion is dimmed
BY comparison with the affair of last
night
