SALVATION army
GIVES 100000 HOME
STATUARY MUST NOT BE DRAP-
ED AT ANY TIME-SOCIETY
WOMEN TO HELP HOME.

Mrs. Bradford Shinkle, a retiring
little woman residing in Covington,
KY, has given her 100000 mansion
to the Salvation army to be used as
a woman's training school, where DO
mestic science will occupy first place
IN the curriculum. The one condition
stipulated by Mrs. Shinkle is that the
statuary must not be draped nor mu-
tllated nor may the paintings be COW
cred at any time. Salvation army
heads who have inspected the home
declare it contains nothing that any
pure minded person could possibly
regard as suggestive in statuary.
The Shlnkle mansion is one of the
best appointed private dwellings, in
Kentucky. 1t is situated on a lofty
eminence which commands Coving-
ton, Cincinnati's Gretna Green. 1t is
surrounded by gardens and lawns, in
which fountains play continually.
Fairgrounds, walks and other attrac-
lions are found on the two acres of
land surrounding the mansion. The
interior of the house is gorgeously
decorated with some of the finest
specimens of the painters art. Thir-
ty-tive rooms are at the disposal of
the young women. Among these is
a class room, where all arts which
concern the housekeeper will be
taught, 1t is planned to receive as
guests only such young women as are
willing to qualify themselves for the
proper conduct of a household.
Mrs. Charles P. Taft, former Pres
ident Taft's sister-in-law, and many
of the leading society women of Gin
cinnati, have united with the Saliva
ton army in it's efforts to make the
home a success.

PARK LOOMS UP A
STRONG CONTENDER
STRONG INFLUENCES AT WORK
TO MAKE CONGRESSMAN
FEDERAL JUDGE.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Represen-
tative Frank Park of the Second
Georgia district is rapidly forging to
the front in the race for the federal
judgeship in the Southern district
of Georgia.
Strong influences close to the
white house have been working with
quiet but determined persistence in
his behalf. Since yesterdays con-
terence at the white house and the
department of justice he appears the
most formidable candidate in the
race.
Mr.. Park is indorsed by seven of
the eleven Georgia members in the
house. His legal ability and his cour-
age have been attested by two JUS
tees of the supreme court of the
District of Columbia, and by innu-
merable lawyers in South Georgia,
who .practiced before his court.
Senator Hardwick is pressing John
7. West of Thomson and Thomas
5. Fielder of Macon. Both men have
OC0n oG1OIlSIy lnOOrSeO by members
of the Georgia bar and both are said
to have placed Senator Hardwick I'M
der lasting obligation because of
their political support.
The weakness of both the above
named aspirants for the judicial of
flee is not inherent in themselves,
but in the fact that Senator Hard
wick has not the influence at the
white house that would make his per-
sonal and political desires carry the
necessary weight or his Endorsement
sufficient to produce desired results.
If his nominee for the iudgeshin
IS rejected it is assumed he will ac-
cept the decision philosophically, and
not ungracefully block confirmation
IN the Senate of the presidents own
selection, particularly if that candi-
date is the choice of the Georgia
members of the house and in other
ways qualified. Such action will be
feeding Senator Hardwick out of the
same spoon that was so long held
to the lips of the late Senator West.

GEORGIA PECAN is
BIG MONEY MAKER
u. S. Department of Agriculture Is
sues Bulletin Containing Strik-
ing Statements.

ATLANTA, Ga.-That the Geor-
gia pecan is destined to become the
finest nut grown in the United States.
and the greatest money-maker for it's
growers, are among the striking
statements contained in a bulletin
just issued by the United States de-
partment of agriculture. So impor-
ttant has become the pecan industry
IN South Georgia and other sections
of the state that the department has
assigned corps of experts to make
scientific study of its growth and
development, and to formulate meth
DDS of improving pecan culture.
According to the departments
bulletin, pecans contain two-thirds
as much protein as round steak, from
four to six times as much fat, and
four times as much fuel value. In
fact they are unsurpassed as a food.
Attention is called to the fact, in
the bulletin, that pecan growing is a
highly profitable industry, and the
prediction is made that pecans will
more than make up for the deficit
caused by the boil weevil's ravages
IN the cotton crop.
