HOUSE WILL ACT
On WILSON SHOW
.DOWNON TUESDAY

WASHINGTON, D. c., March A
House leaders decided today not to
bring up the armed ship question for
4 vote until Monday. 1t had been de-
cided action on the matter would be
taken today, and postponement of con
sideration was unlocked for.
The house adjourned Friday until
10 this morning, instead of noon, the
usual hour so as to dispose of pend
ing routine business and clear the
way for the armed ship resolutions Of
fered by Representative McLemore, A
direct vote on the resolutions has
been demanded by President Wilson,
and he is being supported in. this posi-
ton by administration followers.
The rules committee worked today
on special rule which would provide
for immediate consideration of the
resolutions, and which will be sub
n2itted Monday at the opening session
The foreign relations committee last
night adopted a report recommending
that the McLemore resolutions warn
ing Americans to stay off armed mec-
chant ships be tabled. The resolution
seems almost certain of passage Mon
day.

Wilson Not to Desert Post.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March A
Aroused by the publication of reports
that President Wilson is considering
resigning because of the strain of the
existing foreign situation and the ap-
parent lack of harmony between the
executive and legislative branches of
the government, a formal statement
bearing upon these reports was issued
at the White house early today. The
statement was given press representa-
tives by Secretary Tumulty and denies
fatty every insinuation that the presi-
dent ever entertained the least inten-
tion of deserting his post in the face
of existing conditions.
Secretary Tumulty, discussing the
reports said ANY American newspa-
Ier that would publish such story as
that, in situation like the one which
TOW confronts America dishonors ie-
self" Certain Washington CORES
pondents had sent stories to their pub
|lications on Friday stating that unless
Wilson succeeded in securing the SUP
port of congress in his foreign. policy
he intended to resign, and it was in
connection with these publications that
Secretary Tumulty issued the state
ment above quoted

Mayor Jones, of Cordele, says they
ere all progressive men and alive to
the need for pushing Crisp county, and
will, no doubt, be of great assistance
to the management of the fair.

they will be printed on the stationery

The schools over the nineteen coun-

tcresting buildings on the grounds.

MYRTLE SPRINGS
IMPROVED
FOR SU NJ MER

The popular summer resort, Myrtle
Springs, six miles from Americus is
being wonderfully improved by the
owner, Henry W. Virgins. He an
Iiounced last summer that the place
would be improved for the pueIic by
the summer of 1916, but he never said
the wonderful new features he is in
stalling would be placed at the popular
resort. He seems to have improved
more than was at first intended.
Concrete walks all around the en-
tire property will take the place of the
sand ones while the roots of trees
which formerly protruded from the
ground all around the spring have
been eliminated.
And the old wooden bathing pool is
another relic Of the past summer. 1t
has been replaced by most modern
concrete pool and it is beautiful In de-
sign and construction. The pool has
been enlarged lot and it now is more
than twenty feet longer thon it was
formerly. And it is much wider.
New cottages are in course of con-
struction and the new ones will be
larger and more convenient than the
older ones. The houses will be equip
ped with all the modern conveniences
and will be enjoyed oy the campers
there this summer.
To make the place complete Mr..
Virgins is having a model lighting
system and no more will the campers
grope around the place in the dark
ness. The last Improvement is very
important one, that is to the people
who enjoy the light fantastic. The
pavilion Is being re-hoored with hard
wood and new roof is in course of
construction. By this means the place
will be made even more popular than
il has been heretofore. And the people
of the surrounding country anxiously
await the opening of the place.
