mittee.
An interesting announcement is
made by the Head Camp officials, who
have compiled statistics to show the
increase in the size of the conven-
tions since the first one was held i'll
1908 in Pensacola, Fla. At this time
the states of Georgia, Florida, Ala
bama and South Carolina were incluG-
ed in the district represented at the
convention, and 145 delegates were
present.
At the biennial convention in 1908
al Savannah. the states of Georgia,
Florida and Alabama were represented
by 24O delegates, while in 1907, at
Jacksonville, Fla, there were 250
delegates representing Georgia and
Florida In 1903, Georgia was made
separate district, and the Atlanta
convention registered 26O delegates.
At Columbus in 1911 there were 275
delegates from Georgia camps, and at
Thomasville in 1913 there were 300,
while at Athens in 1915, 375 delegates
presented their credentials.
The convention in Americus, with
almost 500 delegates is the largest
ever held by the Woodmen of the
World in Georgia and marks the high
est point reached in the membership
of the order
Fer Next Meeting.
Rome and Valdosta are competing
for the honor of entertaining the next
convention of the Woodmen in 1919,
and it is expected that the North Geor-
gia city will in all probability have the
inside track" at this time, since it
has been the custom of the Head Camp
to alternate between North and South
Georgia in naming the convention
cities.
This afternoon session opened at
o'clock in the Opera House. the Gre
dentials committee making its report
and the Head Camp officers announc-
ino the results of the last two years
work in their respective departments.
The transaction of general business
was the final feature of the afternoon
meeting.
Tomorrow afternoon Vice President
Thomas r. Marshall will arrive from
Savannah, accompanied by Mrs. Mar
shall. to deliver an address at
O'Clock at Windsor Hotel before a
large audience. His theme will be
National Tendencies
Immediately on his arrival tomor-
row afternoon at 3:0S the vice presi-
cent will be taken to Andersonville by
automobile to inspect the National
Cemetery, and on his return to Amer
icus will be entertained at dinner at
the home of Frank Lanier on Taylor
street. He will leave at 10 40 for Win
ston-Salem, n. c., where he is sched-
uled to deliver an address on Friday.
On Thursday morning will occur
the final session of the Woodmen con-
vention and the selection of the next
meeting place will be the principal
feature, followed by the paying off CT
the delegates for their service during
the three days of the meeting.
