their own numbers will be county po-
hCemen, who have promised. for the
sake of the nervous ones, to keep a
vigilant eye over Camp Wyanoke.
Sunday will be a typical camp day.
Here is Miss Tatum's plan for the
day: Early rising and time for wad-
ing or swimming for those whose in
clinatiOns are cast in those direc-
tons; later. breakfast and Sunday
school services, led by DR.. A r. Hol-
derby, of the Moore Memorial
Church. After that the day will be
given over to the girls, with proba bly,
period named for vesper services
late in the afternoon.
Frequent Dances Planned.
Frequent dances and campfire mar
ties are being planned for the enter
tainment Of the girls. and arrange
mentS for a candlelight pageant are
being revolved in Miss Tatum's mind
An automobile bus will be estab-
lished on Jonesboro Road, to run to
the camp from the end of the Lake
wood car line, which goes to a spot
within two miles of Wyanoke.
The camp has a telephone-Main
44S4-for the benefit os everybody
concerned, including possibly a male
person or two whom a girl or two
might find it hard to leave alone,
seven miles away, without some con-
nection.
And the camp is altogether a desir-
able girls camp. because boys are not
barred from entrance. Every party
that is planned will be for the girls
and their boys together,

sentative Thomas NJ. Bell, Of the
Ninth District, that there IS an lin
visible. secret influence" operating to

ator Smith Of defeating the appoint
ment Of his nominee a. s. Hardy. for

coed Mrs. Helen D. Longstreet. Mrs
II. W. J. Ham was appointed.
Senator Smith said;

position OF postmaster at Gainesville

posed me in every political contest /

Congressman Bell urged that l
should help him, because this In
dorsement was opposed by an outside
party who had interest in the Gaines
willie office and who l understood had
always opposed me.
Too Much TO Ask.
Il told Mr. Bell that I would vote
for the confirmation as postmaster at
Gainesville Of anyone whose name
was sent 10 the Senate II was en-
tirely too much tor MN TO ask that
should aid Mr.. Hardy in obtaining the
appointment, especially since in the

In this connection / wish to state
that Il has been my policy wherever

reference to appointments in Georgia

pay as far as possible the political
obligations ! owe TO my friends.
Surely no Congressman can complain
Of this It IS a rule they all adopt
and IL one that properly suggests
itself 10 every man with a spark OF
gratitude in him.
No cabal Exists.
Il have endeavored at all times to
recognize the rights and obligations
OF my colleagues In both Houses.
There has been absolutely no dispo-
sition or purpose here, so far as l
know on the part or anyone to eX-
clude from recognition those Georgia
Democrats who saw NJ 10 oppose the
President in the recent primary in an
honorable and proper manner, and
any statement to the contrary is en-
tirely unfOunded.

continue to insist, that nowhere in

In the twenty-five years that l have

MORE EVIDENCE IN THE CASE.
We claim that Nuxcara is the only
remedy known to the world that is

this assertion by hundreds of high

the route, "hauging like n spider from

years incessant toll the workmcn
reached the huge mass Of rock which
blocks the gorge near Bclvianes." Still

Of terror the ire set to work anew.

Varied Powers.
In many places dew is looked upon
as tears Of the angels and Of the souls
in purgatory shed OF account Of the
sins Of human beings upon earth, and
dew is collected to be used to cure Ger
tain diseases, especially those of the
eyes, freckles, badness, cramps, open
wounds and cuts. rheumatism, skin
diseases. burns, etc.
The virtues Of dew as a beauty wash
are also well known, remarks the Jour
nal Of Religious Psychology. One leg.
end tells how by licking the dew off
the plants on a certain morning when
all the birds drink it one can learn
their language.
Another folk belief is that naked or
with only their shirts on the witches at
the time Of the new moon collect the
dew from the grass with bark sleeves.
BY this means they deprive Of their
milk the COWS that have been pastured
ON the grass. and as soon as their
sleeves arc full Of dew they know that
their pots at home are full of milk,
The Polish people OF Wongrowitz call
