Congressman Charles r Crisp,
who has been too III since the holi-
days TO return to his Congressional
duties in Washington, is now con-
valescng, and hopes to get back to
the House within the next two weeks
Mr.. Crisp was stricken with a Sc
we're attack Of grip while at his
home in Americas for short Christ
mas vacation. and has been very
sick man since His physicians have
required Of him that he dismiss all
thought Of work from his mind, and
very few people have been permitted
TO see him or converse with him
upon any subject for three weeks or
more. He is well along the road to
recovery now, however, but will not
expose himself TO the rigors OF a
Washington January until he is com
pletely on his feet once more.
Mr.. Crisp, who is serving his first
term in the House, Will have no OPP
position for recollection Such talk
as there was along that line few
weeks back has altogether ceased.
The prospective and suggested candi-
dates against him have dropped out
one by one, and there is no chance
OF an opposing entry at this tine.
No Georgia Congressman has a
wider national acquaintance than Mr.,
Crisp. He is, OF course, the son of
the late Speaker Crisp. and has lived
In Washington, mingling with men OF
affairs, ever since his early child
hood, and for two years was House
parliamentarian under Speaker
Champ C1ark-his fathers Democrat
ic successor and lifelong friend.
Besides. Mr.. Crisp's constituents
seem TO be abundantly well satisfied
with his services in the House, and to
realize that he is most likely to de-
velop in time Into one OF the real
leaders of the Same.

coming race of Representative John
Y. Smith, OF Fulton, for Recorder OF

be a candidate for the Court OF APP

The Fulton representative Is gen
