NEW WAY TO BOOM CLARK
Red Cross Idea Used BY Speakers
Headquarters.

Washington, d. c., May 13.-The
Champ Clark advertisers have hit up
on another scheme to exploit the can
didacy of their hero. This time they
are borrowing an idea from the Red
Cross and are sending out tens of
thousands of stamps, such as are sold
at cent apiece around Christmas
time by the Red Cross people. On
these stamps is the picture of the
Speaker, with line at the top For
President" and one at the bottom
Champ Clark"
Ten thousand of these tsamps were
today shipped to Mayor Preston, John
j. Mathon and other Clark supporters
n Maryland. At the same time more
than 20 boxes of buttons were sent
along for advertising,

GRIM REAPER
HAS CLAIMED
YOUNG LADY
MISS EVERETT PASSED AWAY
Sunday Afternoon at Home.
Here

The funeral of Miss Norma Lee Ev-
erett, who passed away on Sunday af-
ternoon, was held yesterday after
noon from the Everett home on Lee
street, Rev. j. w. Stokes, pastor of
the Presbyterian church, officiating. A
large assemblage of friends who knew
and loved Miss Everett joined in pay
ing this final sad tribute.
The handsome casket was covered
with exquisite floral designs, many
sent by friends from other cities. The
pallbearers were Messrs. Harris s.
Council C. E. Ansley, Edwin Murray.
C. H. Burke, G. D. Wheatley, Jr., and
j. E. Gyles. The funeral exercises,
deeply impressive throughout, were
concluded at Oakgrove cemetery.
Miss Everett was nineteen years
old, and eldest daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Edward B. Everett. She was
reared in Americus, and after com
pleting the course in the city schools
here she entered Cox College at Col
lege Park, where her education was
completed.
Possessing rare musical talent, Miss
Everett spent several years in vocal
study, and upon graduation had at
tanned distinction in this rare accom-
plishment. Refined, cultured aud
possessing all the graces of beautiful
young womanhood, she was admired
among all. Miss Everett had been i'll
for some time prior to death, her con-
dition having grown steadily weaker
until the end came in the calm and
quiet of Sunday afternoon.

LESLIE ROAD
AGAIN OPEN
ENTIRE length
READY FOR VEHICLES TODAY
Road to Huntington Closed
For Months

That section of the Leslie road
from Americus to Huntington, which
has been closed for some time, will
be re-opened to traffic again this
morning for the first time in three or
four months, or since the continued
rains of the past winter put it out of
commission by the damages inflicted.
This makes the road open for travel
throughout it's entire length of 18
mile
Most serious of the damages was
the carrying away of the long fill at
the Walker creek, three miles east OF
the city, where a steel bridge has
since been substituted. Continued de-
lay in getting bridge material to-
gether with adverse weather condi-
tions, has prevented the earlier com
pletion of this fine bridge, but the
work is now finished and teams can
cross the bridge today. This, as stat
ed, again opens the Leslie roads it's
entire length from Americus to Flint
river.
With the Leslie road bridge finish
d, the county bridge building for
will resume work upon the Lee street
road bridge at Councils Mill creek,
A substantial steel bridge will be
built there in place of the concrete
structure which was washed away
when the mill dam broke last Win
ter. AS soon as possible all of the
county roads will be worked over, az
some of them need it very greatly
now.

CITIES Wish
FOR TOURNEY
IN TENNIS
ALBANY And DAWSON 70
Secretary Dunn May Organize
League

On account of the fact that re-
quests have been received here by
Secretary Murray Dunn, of the local
Young Mems Christian Association
an inter-city tennis league may be or
ganized for the purpose of promoting
a tournament in this popular sport.
Requests have been received from
both Dawson and Albany by Secretary
Dunn, and with this voluntary CO.
operation it may be that an effort
will be made to organize an inter-city
league and to pull off a tournament
in this manner. Secretary Dunn fa-
vors the project.
The game of tennis has proven so
popular here that Secretary Dunn
feels that the local players will lib
orally support movement of this
kind If like support can be had
from Dawson and Albany, it would
seem that the plan should meet with
enough encouragement and cooper
ation to make it a success.
Tennis has steadily grown in favor
Aere for some time past, and it IS
"ery likely that a larger number OF
players than ever will be interested
the game this season.

PACKAGE
IN MAILS

Employees at the Americus postoffice
have been called upon to handle nu-
merous parcels unmailable, but tho
limit was reached yesterday when a
man drove up in buggy and care
fully lifted a heavy box, Grated at
the top, which he desired sent to a
friend at distance.
The surprise of the employees can
be imagined when they saw in the
box a fifty-pound live pig, all ready
to be mailed The owner of the pig
was informed that the parcels post
bill had not yet passed, and that he
had better try the freight depot.
Hardly had he gone away with the
grunting hog ere one of the clerks
saw several one dollar bills and somf
silver coins, abouts $5 in ALL shoe
into the letter delivery box while
outside country negro was calmly
walking away. He was asked if hi
had dropped the money in the box
and for what purpose.
"Sho' | put it there" he said. q

WILL INVITE GRAND LODGE
TO MEET HERE NEXT YEAR
civ Council Adopted Resolution Last Night Board Of
Trade Will In All Probability Do So
Tonight

Decision will soon be had in the mat
ter of whether tne city of Americus
is to ask the Georgia Grand Lodge OF
the Independent Order of Odd Eel
lows to come to- Americus for its next
session, a year hence, which is to be
held at some place in the state not
yet chosen.
For the purpose of placing the mat
ter definitely before the two public
bodies OF the city, the City Council
and the Board of Trade, which are to
decile the matter, Division Deputy
Grand Master F. G. Oliver of the Odi
Fellows will appear tonight before
the Board of Trade, having appear
ed last night before the City Council!
and having gained their support in
the matter.
The approaching session of the
Grand Lodge is to be held in Gaines
vile on May 1928, and it is at this
session of the order that the place
for the holding of the next assem-
bly, of this kind is to be decided 1t
will be necessary. according to Mr.
Oliver, for the homes Of the city to be
thrown open to the visitors in order
to provide entertainment for all or
them. The people of the city should
look at the matter in this light, said
Mr.. Oliver if they are to assume the
responsibility of entertaining so large
a convention
The purpose of Mr.. Oliver in appear
ing before the Board of Trade tonigl 1t
is the same which he had in mind in
appearing before the City Council last
night, that of ascertaining the senti-
ment of these bodies in regard to the
matter of inviting the Odd Fellows to
meet here.
Though the City Council has shown
its willingness to have the Grand
Ledge here for it's session in 1913 by
inviting them to come, to Americus,
Mr. Oliver wishes also to have the
Beard of Trade act upon the matter
before he extends the invitation IOl
that body. 1t is felt that all the
prDlic support possible is needed in
this matter to make it success, if
he Grand Lodge decides to come to
the city.
A matter which caused most trouble
las that of securing place in which
the Grand Lodge may hold its secret
sessions. The High School auditorium
ard the opera house are the two
largest public halls in the city, and
it is thought that these will serve,
though they would likely be greatly
taxed. 1t is necessary for the people
of the city to throw open their homes
to accommodate the many delegates,
who usually number approximately
2 900, according to Mr.. Oliver. There
is little doubt but that the Board of
Trade will likewise add its approval
to the invitation of the Grand Lodge
at its session tonight.
