GERMANY CAN'T
BE CRUSHED
Lorehurn's Speech Cited. Newspaper
Says Suggestion of Crushing the
Nation Is Mere Folly.

BERLIN.-"The Nord Deutsche
AIlgemeine Zeitung recognizes the
moderate tone of the speeches re-
Gently made in the British house OF
lords by Lords Loreburn, Miner and
Courtney" says the Overseas News
Agency, but it doubts whether their
suggestions looking to way out OF
the dilemma will lead to sensible
peace proposals, which it is well
known Germany is always ready to
consider"
The agency continues: THE paper
points out the speeches of the lords
went unaIio wered while three mem
bers of the British cabinet in the
Guild Hall announced program for
the annihilation of the German en-
pire in spite of all political and mill
tary failures.
CAS- long as the leaders of the Brit
ish nation continue to believe that 1t
is possible to crush and to annihilate
Germany" the newspaper concludes
land as long as the English press
continues to support this folly with
eeption, speeches like these made by
ception, speeches like thse made by
Lord Corburn and Lord Courtney
will be the only voice in desert.

Want Mr.. Cutler Returned.
Rev. ]. NJ. Cutler has experienced
much success as pastor of the Daw-
son church, and has made himself
unusually popular with the church
membership as we'll as the people of
Dawson generally. He has proven
himself an able and consecrated min
mister of the gospel, and the church
is unanimaus in it's desire for his re-
turn to Dawson as pastor.
1t is also hoped that DR.. T. D. Ellis
will be returned as presiding elder.
He has served this district in that
capacity for two years, and it is very
probable that he will be returned to
complete the allotted four years.
Important Questions Up.
There are several important ques-
lions to be considered by the board
of missions Tuesday, among which is
the ACCESSIBILITY and expediency of
placing five conference evangelists in
the field next year, and make the
year of grace 1915, which is the
first centennial of the death of Bish-
OPP Francis Asbury, one of climacteric
fruitfulness in harvesting souls with
in the bounds of the South Georgia
Conference. The names of a large
number of the members of the con-
ference are being mentioned for the
evangelistic appointments, prominent
among whom are: Rev. Arthur j..
Moore of Blackshear, Rev. T. NJ.
Christian of Columbus, Rev. John N.
Hudson of Brentwood, Rev. J. W..
FINLEY of Perry, Rev. F. A. Radcliffe
of st. George, Rev. Robert Rouse of
Sylvester, Rev. Harry S. Allen of Ba-
conton, and Rev. John S. Sharp of
Ludowici. Whether any OF these
ministers will be appointed or would
be willing to accept the places if ten
dered them is not definitely known.
However, it is practically a certainty
that two or more evangelists will be
added to the conference corps of
three successful ones already in the
field.
The Introductory discourse of the
conference session will be preached
this evening by Rev. J. P. McFerrin,
a former pastor of the Dawson
church.

ANOTHER WEEK OF
OF LEGISLATURE
Defects in Western and Atlantic Bill
Made Reconsideration Necessary.
Other Matters Not Disposed of.

Other Matters Not Disposed of.
ATLANTA will be at least
one more week of the extra session
of the general assembly.
This was made certain Saturday
when it became apparent that the
house Monday would have to recon-
slider its action Friday afternoon in
passing the Western and Atlantic
commission bill, by reason of certain
conflicting paragraphs.
The Western and Atlantic commits
sion bill, as passed, is regarded as
imperfect, and it was therefore nee
essary for the house to reconsider its
action, or for the senate to amend
and perfect the bill and send it back
to the house for concurrence.
The passage of the automobile bill
in the house Monday necessitates the
general assembly's staying in session
until Friday for the bill to be read
three times and passed in the SEN
ate.
Hope of passing the warehouse bill
has been abandoned, and that meas
ure will go over until the session
next summer.

Those cooperating to make the exhibi- tions possible feel that in this state where so much market milk is sold that scoring of this kind will help tremen- dously in improving the quality and ad- vancing the price of milk. There is also need at this time of raising the standard of quality of our Connecticut butter. These scoring exhibitions can be a most important factor in bringing this about.
 The milk will be examined for bacteria, flavor, sediment, fat, solids not fat, and acidity. The government score card with a few changes will be used. The exhibitions are designed to be of great educational benefit to the dairymen, creamerymen, and con

If ever the Catholics of this country were called by divine Provi- dence to give of their loyalty and gen. erosity to the Sovereign Pontiff, this indeed is the time to manifest their true spirit of devotion, even at the cost of personal sacrifice.

Money to Sustain Pope.

 Dear Father:
 The Peters Pence collection will be taken up in this diocese Pentecost Sun day, May 23rd. The offerings of the faithful on this occasion go to support the Holy Father in his administration of the Church throughout the world.
 Since our last appeal in behalf of the Vicar of Christ, all Europe has become involved in such terrible distress that the resources obtained from Peters Pence in that sad country have been completely swept away and the Holy See must look to other lands to main tain the church in the extraordinary needs that have risen. Of all the great nations:ours alone is still enjoying the

court, the court holding President
Phillips guilty of the charges prefer.

taxpayers Of Morgan county. 1t was
charged that President Phillips us a
member of the county court entered
into contracts with business firms In
which he was personally interested,
for thousands of dollars worth OF

the committee OF the United States
Lawn Tennis Association, at its meet.
ing in New York last month, faced the
difficult problem OF deciding whether
first place should go to the holder of
the national championship or to the
man who had demonstrated, despite
one failure that he was the tennis star
not only of America but OF the world.
They finally decided in McLorghlin's
fayor-a decision which met with gen.
eral acceptance as being right and pro.
per. although without any reflection
on the brilliance of Williams perform.
ancesat Newport. The decision OF the
committee us to ranking gave Pacific
Coast players the lead in all divisions,
Mclaughlin and Thomas C. Bundy
standing at the top of the double list,
and Miss Mary Browne leading the fair
players.
1t is altogether unlikely that Nc.
Loughlin will have the opportunity Of
defending his right TO the worlds
championship this year, as Anthony T.
Wilding and Norman E. Brookes, who
captured the Davis cup for Australia,
although boht were defeated in singles
by McLoughlin, are now soldiers and
fighting at the front.
McLoughlin's coronation as king OF
the tennis world marks the first ap.
pearance OF an American player in
that role, by the. universal consent Of
the tennis critics Of all nations. He
has remained at the top in American
tennis for three consecutive years in
spite Of the fact that when he began
his championship career rule was
put into effect making 1t necessary for
the champion to play through the ma
tional tournament, and champions of
past years had played only in the chal.
lenge round.

classed as good according to ordinary
chemical standards, and which might

fear OF creating a nuisance. rs
Undoubtedly the difficulties OF sew
age publication have been made an
excuse for delay. not only by, manu-.
facturers. but, also. by, many munich:
palities in carrying out the require.
ments of supervising authorities. In
some cases the supervising author..
ties have been to lenient. and 1t must
be pleaded as their excuse, that they
have been patiently awaiting the per.
lection Of methods OF publication
which II was hoped would yield bet
ter results at less cost to those who
had the sewage to deal with.
Such hopes were raised about Il
years ago by the Introduction Of art.
fetal biological methods.
The technical side of sewage purif.
cation has now been so far developed
that 1t is possible to preserve the nat.
ural appearance and purity OF every
stream, even the smallest, with a
minimum expenditure OF money.
Many of the manufacturers who
have constructed publication works

I The general tendency Of the large
growing towns and OF the f!ourishins
industries. to get rid of their yearly
increasing quantities of rubbish, filth
and sewage by discharging them into
the rivers, has imposed upon the state
Of West Virginia, the duty of careful.
~ guarding public water courses.
The far reaching hygenic impor.
lance of keeping the rivers clean Is
faced by the fact that the towns and
factories must be provided with the
means of getting rid Of all those mat,
tiers for which the public water.course
seem to provide the natural outlet,
Often, indeed. no other method Is
available. and then permission must
be granted, but with certain safe,
guards which preclude the POSSIBLE
ity of danger to the public health.
No legislation should be passed.
which demands the performance OF
technical impossibilities.
1t can be assumed that the State
Board of Health will keep in touch
with the technical development Of
sewage publication. and will not re.
quire the adoption of measures which
necessitate large expenditures, with.
out insuring reliable results.

movement has been inaugurated to
make Marshall college, now a state
normal school here, a university on
par with the State University at
Morgantown, and measure will be
introduced into the Legislature with
that purpose in view. It Is claimed
the Marshall college property is far
more desirable for university pur.
poses than that at Morgantown,
where some Of the buildings were
constructed either before or shortly
after the Civil war. 1t is claimed the
general course Of study at Marshall
college is now as thorough as that
at the university. Under the guidance
Of Prof. Corbley, the president of the
school, 1t has taken front rank as an
educational institution, its enroll.
ment being larger than all the other
normal schools in the state put to-
gether.
