shake the very foundations of the ma
ton. A great many Americans are
opposed to military service, especially
fathers and mothers of youths who
would gladly enter the army or navy
if they could only gain the consent OF
their parents to do so. l say to these
parents that they are making great
mistake. Remember that mans first
duty is to his country. There is no
sacrifice too great for the country to
ask of him and none that he should
not willingly make. To dissuade a
young man from entering the military
service of his country is an act that
no American should be guilty of, be-
cause ii falls little short of treason. To
have greater navy we must all pull
tcegther. There must be no drones in
the camp. There must be no pessi-
mists who howl about wasting the
nations money. 1t is not being vast
ed. Is fire insurance wasted? What
every true American should pull for is

Electric Light
Tennis Is Here
AS Great Fad

ATLANTA, Ca, HAY 30.-Tennis
by electric light is the latest piece of
enterprise invented by young Atlanti-
ans who cannot play as much as they
wanto to play between the close of
business hours and the end of daylight
Accordingly the West End Tennis
Club, an organization of racquet
wielders who own set of courts in
the fashionable West End section,
have installed a number of powerful
electric lights SO arranged with refec-
tors that their courts are made as
light as day, and they play in the cool
of the evening instead of in the hot
afternoon
The plan has proved so popular that
some of the big social clubs having
country houses with tennis courts are
getting estimates on what it would
cost to equip their courts with cleo
trio lights.

.HYMAN GETS SHARE
OF GREAT PRAISE

The following letter was received by
Mayor L. G. Council this morning
from Len C. Baldwin, representative
of the Pettibone Brothers Manufac-
turing company, one of the largest
concerns in the United States, making
large supplies and military uniforms.
Mr.. Baldwin is very enthusiastic over
Americas getting the next meeting of
the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows:
Il was in Atlanta this week attend
ing the Grand Lodge, 1. O. OF, meet
ing, as I am in the regalia business,
and have been attending Grand Lodges
/. o. O. F. for fourteen years, and I
have seen a great many fights on the
floor of the Grand Lodge for the meet
ing places of this grand body.
Il want to write you this letter
and tell you what magnificent work
your secretary of the Chamber of
commerce, E. H. Hyman, did in secur-
ing this convention for Americus. re
was under great disadvantage for
this reason; he was not member of
tie order, and we had invitations from
Rome, Augusta, Macon, Atlanta, Sa-
vannah and Thomasville, and with his
good Judgment and fine advertising,
he won the fight for your city, and
feel like in justive to him, you citi-
zens and Chamber of Commerce ought
to know the facts in this case.
when he reached Atlanta, 1 saw
him and told him he had real prop
osition to go up against. and he said
he would never sleep until he secured
this convention for Americus-and
sure enough he did.
Il am writing you as l know you
are in touch with the members of the
Chamber of Commerce, and also pro-
prietor of the best hotel in south
Georgia., and l feel like that Mr.. Hy-
ran should have the praise for land
ing this convention.
with regards and best wishes, and
am sure the Grand Lodge will enjoy
being in your city next May"

GEORGIA PHARMACISTS WILL
MEET IN ATLANTA JUNE 1914

The forty-frst annual meeting of the
Georgia Pharmaceutical Association
will meet in Atlanta June 1914, in
stead of June CT, as published in the
last proceedings of the association.
The change in dates was made nee
assary because of the fact that Mercer
University and the State University
schools of Pharmacy will hold their
commandments on June and Z.
The approaching session of the So
ciety promises to be the best in, the
history of the association. 1t goes
without saying that atlanta druggists
will leave nothing undone that will go
to the making of the occasion a big
success from every viewpoint
The Piedmont Hotel will be head
quarters, and the Board of Pharmacy
will meet at this hotel on June 10.
DR.. E. L. Murray of this city is a
member of the Board of Pharmaceutical
Examiners and will attend the meet
ing.
The local arrangement committee
has arranged for reduced rates for all
who attend at the hotels as well as the
railroads providing a sufficient num-
Der attend, hence every member of
the association is urged to attend,
earring a wife, sister or sweetheart,
and have good time. Entertainments
a plenty will be provided. Don't for

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
CONVENTION To BE
VERY LARGE EVENT

One of the largest religious conVen-
lions ever held in Georgia will be the
State Sunday School Convention,
which meets in the Baptist Taber-
nacle in Atlanta, June 18th, 14th, 18th.
The Baptist Tabernacle of Atlanta has
a seating capacity of 5000. Atlanta
is getting ready for 1900 out-of-town
delegates, and there will probably be
900 delegates from the Atlanta and
Fulton county Sunday schools.
A new feature of the convention
this year will be a mammoth Bible
class parade on the afternoon of
Thursday, June 18th. This parade
will be composed of all the men del
egates to the convention, and the
mems Bible classes of Atlanta. The
men in the parade will wear special
hats and badges which will be furn-
ished for the occasion. Many of the
most prominent men in the state will
be in this parade.

WHY THE U. s. NEEDS
A GREATER NAVY

In the history of wars past and pres
ent the nation that controlled the sea
has invariably won the war. To loose
the sea means defeat sooner or later.
The South would have either defeat
ed the north or have forced them to
favorable terms if they could only
broken the slow strangling hold of
the Federal navy. On land during the
first part of that war the Confederates
we're almost always victorious, but
victory on land couldn't offset defeat
on the sea. If today Germany could
Suddenly sweep the English feet from
the sea victory would be hers in short
order. AS it is Germany is in a posi-
ton greatly similar to the Confeder-
acy; victorious on land while being
strangled by the ever tightening iron
ring that England has drawn around
her on the sea. Let the navy of any
country be put out of action and that
country can be invaded. 1t makes nc
difference how efficient the land fore
es are they can not be shifted in suff1c-
lent numbers to the threatening point
quickly enough to stop the invaders.
Russia lost in her war with Japan not
because of the defeat on land but be-
cause the Russian fleet was defeated,
thus leaving the Japanese free to land
wherever they choose and to form I'M
failing supply lines in their rear. Ma
poleon could never conquer Europe

quered He could never conquer Eng

the American navy be swept from the
sea, and no matter how loudly some
"yap" statesmen should howl about
the glory of the flag and of the mil

vasion would come just as surely as
fate. The one and only guarantee
against the great paralyzing disaster
j., a mighty navy and now is the time
to build that navy. When war comes

Some of the Speakers.

On the program for the convention
are speakers of national fame. Mr.
Marion Lawrence, of Chicago, Gener-
al Secretary of the International Sun
day School Association, is the fore.
most Sunday School man of the world.
Mr.. P. E. Green, of Birmingham, Ala,
Educational Superintendent for the
Alabama Synod of the Presbyterian
Church, U. S. A., is one of the few
men in America who has made o
special study of Sunday School work
with teen age boys and girls. Miss
Myra Batchelder, Montgomery, Ala,
Elementary Superintendent of the
Alabama Sunday School Association,
is one of the most widely known ell
ementary workers in the South. These
with about sixty of the msot promin-
ent Sunday School and church work
ers in the State make an unusually
strong program.
The music of the convention, which
will be under the direction of Prof.
E o. Excel, of Chicago, and Prof,
Alvin w. Roper, Of Winoua Lake, Ind,
will be one of the attractive features
of the convention. Both Prof. Excel
and Prof. Roper have worldwide
reputation-Prof. Excel as COM
poser and song leader and Prof. Ro-
per as a pianist.
Information from the Office of the
State Sunday School Association is
to the effect that the various coun-
ties will have larger delegations at
the convention than ever before. Ar
Engagements have been made to run a
special train from Macon over the
entral of Georgia road, leaving Ma
con at 1920 and arriving in Atlanta
in time for the first session of the
convention Tuesday afternoon, June
18th. Every white Sunday School in
the State is entitled to three delegates
besides pastor and superintendent
Delegates will be met at the station
and assigned homes.
