EpiscopaIian PreIate Asserts Plan
Does Not Include Prohibitory
Laws or Espionage.

The Rt. Rev. c. Kinloch Nelson,
bishop Of Atlanta. explained Friday
morning the position of the Episco-
palian Church concerning the mod
ern tendencies i'm dances, amusements
and feminine dress, following the
announcements at the conference Of
the diocese of Atlanta, which closed
Thursday at Rome.
"In the appointment OF our Com
mittee of Education and Reform"
Bishop Nelson said, large discretion
was conferred. and 1t was assumed
that the committee would interest and
secure the cooperation of civic or
ders and associations to the same
general end of preserving refinement
in our social usages and caution in
the amusements which our young
people are supposed to share.
by civic orders and associations l
mean orders like the Daughters of the
Confederacy, Daughters of the Revo-
luton, Colonial Dames-orders whose
members stand for high principles,
morality and refinement
Responsibility With Parents.
ut Is by means of this influence
that our church should work among
the young people, in connection with
that other recommendation of the
conference.-the locating of RESPONSE
bility for existing conditions largely
with the parents Of families"
Bishop Nelson was asked If the
plan included in any way the aid Of
civic authorities or laws In the cor
rection of too exuberant amusements
or suggestive apparel
Nothing Of the sort" he replied
Legislation and espionage are be-
side the problem.
And then the Bishop quoted from
the latest pastoral letter" delivered
by the House of Bishops:
vital, so earnest, so exuberant in phys
ical and mental energy, we must
not be surprised to find frivolous and
superficial excitements accompanying
the strenuous and sterner activities
of life; and men and women seek
ing relief from care in an excess Of
amusement and recreation
But dress and recreative activities are
things to be determined on their
merits, and not by the dictation of IT.
responsible leaders Of society
Ready to Cooperate.
Our conference committee" the
Bishop concluded, Stands ready to
act in concert with like committees of
various Christian bodies who may be
disposed to enter into a definite cam
paign of education and reform"
But that the Bishop believes. is to
be accomplished by the influence Of
good women and good men-and by
the proper administration Of parental
responsibility. The Bishop has no
call to make on the law or its Of
flcers.

Member of Prominent Gordon
Family Despondent When He
Can Not Get Work.

Despondent because of his increas-
ing Indebtedness and his inability 20
find work, Norman Powell, % years
old, of a well-known Gordon (Ga.)
( family, shot himself through the head
Friday at his rooming house, No. %
West Harris street, dying almost in
stantly.
Mrs William Fulks, who, with her
husband. conducts the place, was I'M
aware that Powell was involved IN
any love affair that might have fur
nished further motive for the suicide,
but acQuaintances of the young man
told of girl whom Powell called
Lucille" and whom they believe he
was intending to wed had not he lost
his position.
Letters signed Lucille" and Allied
with endearing expressions were
found by the police to substantiate
this surmise. The people In the house,
however. said that they did not know
the identity of the young woman.
The messages were written from At
lanta and were received by Powell
when he was in Gordon.
Standing with her back to him at
the time ne ended his life was Mrs.
Carlton Brooks, the young married
daughter of Mrs. F'ulks. Mrs, Brooks
was drying some garments at the
fireplace.
She turned just in time to see him
toying with a 80 caliber Smith &
Wesson revolver.
Wipes Slate Clean.
why Norman, what are you do
ing?" she exclaimed in horror.
Nothing; I'm just nervous, J
guess" he replied to distract her at
tention. When she turned back to
her work she heard him say: We'll,
I'm going to wipe the slate clean
now"
At the same moment she was
startled by the sound of shot. Pow
ell had put the weapon to his head
and wiped the slate clean"
He fell backward on the bed and in
few seconds was dead.
The young woman screamed and
later became hystericaL Her mother
had difficulty in calming her.
He was just sick of life and de-
spondent because he was o badly in
debt" said Mrs. Fulks. That's all
there was to it. There wasn't any
love affair.
Just yesterday morning he was
telling me that he might as well give
up, that he wasn't any good, but /
long as he wanted to stay. even If
he was out of work.
He was a nice boy and was just
like one of the family He used to
work at pharmacy on Luckie street,
but he lost his job there and wasn't
able to get another. He pawned his
watch and we gave him money to get
1t out. That's how much we thought
of him"
Powelfs parents conduct the Cor
don Hotel in Gordon, Ga An uncle
is one of the officials of the Peoples
Bank in the same city. Powell had
been rooming at the Fulks home
about four months.
Post Card from Mother.
A picture post card from his mother
formed one of the pathetic circum-
stances of the tragedy Young Powell
had just received it on the morning
mail. 1t read:
II am glad you are having a good
time in Atlanta. Be sure and be the
good boy that you always have been.
and come to see US again soon. All
Of us are well. Lovingly,
