THEY DO NOT WORRY
A. B. C. Mediators Are Contented to
Wait ON CArranza.

Niagara Falls, June 6.-Definite word
about the c0nstitutionalist attitude to-
ward mediation Is not expected by the
South American ENJOYS until Monday, or
possibly Tuesday. They realize that Gem
eral CarrAnxa's trip from Durango to
Saltillo will occupy him during the next
IS hours and they are not disposed to
worry about the delay. believing time for
elaboration is essential.
Such informal word Is has been con-
veyed here from Washington indicates
that the situation u highly encouraging
though it is believed the formal answer
from Carranxa viii not be drafted until
he gets more information from his agents
in the United States.
The question Of ammunition shipments
to either the constitutionalfsts or the
Huerta government Is not giving the
medf4tors concern, a. they hold 1t to be
issue purely for the American government
to decide on, Itw1s expected that there
would be a conversation between the
American delegates and the mediators to-
day regarding certain phases Of the
peace plan.

GOOD SHOWING MADE
BY CORN CLUB BOYS
Senator Hoke Smith Made A
Long and Interesting Talk
To the Boys.

The Corn Club boys and the Can
ming Club girls held their first an
unal exhibit under the direction Of
Mr.. j. 4. Creel at the Court House
in Marietta last Friday. The exhi-
bits were excellent and all day the
court room was filled with interest
ed people who had come to see what
the boys and girls could do.
At the noon hour the Civic League
ladies entertained them with de-
lightful lunch in the new Manning
building which had an improvised
table all around the long room. On
it were various kinds of sandwiches,
cakes and bananas, and on a table
at the front were two big tubs of
lemonade with plenty of dippers.
Those who served were Mrs Peter
Smith, Mrs. Dan Anderson, Misses
Mabel Cortelyou, Louise and Irene
Schilling, Hooper Wikle and Willie
May Blair. The lunch was quite q
picnic and every one was urged to
eat as much as he or she liked and
the boys were told to fill their peck
cts with bananas.
The court room was filled Friday
p. m. with prominent citizens, in
Guiding many ladies, along with Wis
iting farmers and girls and boys of
the corn and canning clubs to hear
the addresses of Senator Hoke Smith
and Miss Celeste Parrish.
Senator Smith made it very plain
that he had been determined from
his entrance into the senate to do
what he could for the farmers who
so often have hard row to hoe. He
told the boys he had plowed and
hoed and cut wheat in his youth and
has always loved farming. Then he
illustrated by his own experience
how to farm and how to sell crops.

Mr.. D. A. Summerour, who was in
charge OF the live stock exhibits at
the recent state fair, will go to Sa-
Yannah this week for the fair in that
district. He wen the first prize in
Macon for the best ten ears of corn
for the fourth consecutive time
and last February he won the second
prize in the National Corn Show.
Mrs. w. w. Monk won the first
prize Of $1,000. for Worth County,
When this county made her ex-
hlblt at Macon twenty years ago, Mr..
Monk said: Il do not exhibit for q
prize, but l just wanted people to
know there is something in Worth
County besides gophers and wire
grass. After his death Mrs. Monk
continued to show what was in
Worth with the result that she has
at last won the first prize over the
exhibits OF twelve other counties.
Cobb County took second prize of
$500, Wilkes third, 5000, Carroll
fourth, $500, Hall fifth 5000, Pike
sixth $175, Wilkerson seventh, $175,
Coffee eighth $3.50 and Rabun ninth
$3.50. Tiff, Randolph and Haber-
sham Counties each received 500
for meritorious exhibits.
The fair was the best ever and
Cobb County does not begrudge Mrs.
Monk the first prize because it is a
great honor to come next to her
splendid exhibit.

CONFERENCE NET ON
WEDNESDAY MORNING
Big Methodist University To
Absorb The Name OF
Emory College.

The North Georgia Conference of
the Methodist Church met in Mari
eta Wednesday morning, and was
opened by Bishop Collins Denny.
Rev. H. NJ. DuBose was elected sec
rotary and read the rules Of order
of the body.
The illness of Rev. L. P. Lovejoy,
Presiding Elder of the Atlanta dis
trict of the conference cast a gloom
over the members. He was taken
from the pastorate to DR.. Nolan
sanitarium early Wednesday morn
ing where, late Wednesday after
noon, it was said he was no better.
1t is doubtful if he will recover.
The most important question to
be determined by the conference
Wednesday was the naming of the
new Methodist university that will
be located in Atlanta. Emory Uni
versity was decided upon, which was
agreeable to DR.. Dickey, president of
Emory College at Oxford, Ca, and
which will be made a branch of the
big university in Atlanta.
Judge Patterson kindly adjourned
the Superior Court early Wednesday
over until next Monday so that any
one who might be serving on juries
or as witnesses would not be kept
from attending the sessions of the
conference.

Miss Parrish made a beautiful talk
on the new day dawning for country
people, when electric motors would
lift burdens of house work from fem
mime shoulders and gardens and or
chards yield even more abuntantly
than now. When mind would domi-
nate matter and living would be-
come more of joy and contentment
than it is now.
