Next came the bride on the arm of

ITALY DEPENDS ON UNITED STATES
FOR MONEY To PAY NATIONAL DEBT

or less.
"The Italians are thrifty. They bar
gain with all the relish of the East
and stores with one price, such as the
rest of Europe and America demand
would not be appreciated in Italy
where no one ever expects to pay the
priced asked, The poor buy their sup
plies in pennyworths, and haggle over
every pennyworth.
I'm recent years, both the products
of Italian farms and factories have in.
creased largely. The, Germans have
been the best customers and the larg-
est sellers to italy. The United States
has been second on the list OF custom
ers, but it has not sold much to Italy.
Industrial Italy is almost completely
dependent upon the raw materials of
other lands. She imports coal, iron,
raw cotton, lumber, wool, wheat and
raw silk. She exports textiles in cot
ton, silk, wool, fruits, nuts, olives,
olive oil and macaroni, marble, hemp
and art works.
THE average purchasing. power in
italy has been very small, and there is
little expectation that It's imports from
this country will take on much perrBa-
nent increase. Nor is there anything in
the character of the Italian exports, to
make for an increased export to- this
country. Japanese competition has
about wrested away from Italy her
market for textiles in British India
before last August, and this same tex
tile industry has been pressed bitterly
close by the competing industries OF
other great textile making nations
Most promising in Italy's future, prob
ably, has been the fertile farm soils1
and her rare climate for the growing
Of vegetables and fruits"

MEANING OF THE ELLEN
WILSON MEMORIAL

While the Boone Trail committee of
the National Society, Daughters of the
American Revolution, were unwilling

Boone, the pioneer settler who blazed
the trail of civilization through the
mountainous regions of the Central
South. the organizing committee of the
ELLEN Wilson Memorial Fund for the
Christian Education of Mountain
Youth" were completing a plan by
which the descendants of Daniel Boone
and his kind may have their chance to
become leaders of our modern ma
ton.
! Both movements, representing the
highest patriotism, stand for dramatic
periods in our history as nation, and
both are worthy of a national consid-
Grafton. Both are non-sectional In
spirit. though both have found active
expression in the South, their inspira-
ton dating back to those days when
the early settlers scattered their forces
and their agencies, had defined no sec
tions and no state lines, but were al
building the foundation for the re
public represented in our United
States of today.
No one saw more clearly this conui
ton among the mountain people
the South than the late beloved mis-
tress of the white house, Mrs. Wood
row Wilson.
The activity of her interest in ther
suggested that the memorial to he

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug, 6.-Rad Russell
of Atlanta has the distinction Of being
probably the first poet since the time
of Milton and Dante to be put in
prison for reciting a poem.
In the olden days when king Or
duke didn't like the Rhythmic ex-
preston of one of his subjects, he clap
ped the author in chains but nova.
days this method is frowned upon and
the unpopular poet of the goth eentErY
is merely allowed to starve to death ia
a garnet. But Red Russell didn't stay
in a garnet. He decided that If he
couldn't get his poetry published, he
would go down on Five Points and re-
cite it xtemporaneously, like the
troubadors OF old.
The appearance of ]. n Renfroe IL
an automobile, with horn footing gave
Mr.. Russell the inspiration, and he re
cited loudly the following touching
