Unique Manner.

Celebrates His Birth Month in a
Unique Manner.
In a conversation with Dr. o. D.
Howard last week, he called the at
tention of THE APPEAL MAN to
few of the noteworthy events that had
occurred at different periods in the
month of November. For instance the
Pilgrim Fathers and the Mayflower
reached Cape Cod, Nov. II, 1920, and
landed at jamestown, the last Thurs
day in November. BY a singular coin
cidence the armistice of the recent
world war was signed on Nov. 18th
ultimo. Then getting nearer home he
referred to the big peace jubilees and
the greatest of parades and celebra-
lions in st. Paul on last Thanksgivin
day. Then getting still nearer home,
he referred to the fact that he was
born on November 5th, a few years
ago, and, he stated that he had for
years made it a rule to do something
worth while in each month of Novem-
Der, and in keeping with that custom
on November 10, last, he satisfied a
mortgage on a valuable piece of prop
erty; and on November 10Th he pre-
scented to his son-in-law, Mr.. S. L. Max
we'll, half interest in the business
and fixtures of his elegant five-chair
barber shop in the Angus Hotel on
Selby avenue.

He held the audience spellbound from
beginning to end and the consensus of
opinion of the audience was that they
had not heard before in all their life
such vivid and fervid portrayal of
the colored soldier; when he paid
glowing tribute to Rev. and Mrs.
Camp for their unselish and sacrific-
ing service to the community at large
many loud amens were heard in all
parts of the house.
But when he recited poems of his
own composition to emphasize the
point he was trying to drive home
the audience was awe-struck going
into a spasm of wild applause when he
had finished.

THE MAN FOR THE PLACE.

Tomorrow morning, in Atlanta, the
Georgia Board of Entomology vii
elect state entomologist.
The Times Recorder hopes-and il
doing so we voice the sentiments OF
thousands of Georgians, as well as Of
the people of this immediate section
that Mr.. A. C. Lewis will be chosen
for the place.
In his twelve years work in this
county, Mr.. Lewis has demonstrated
his peculiar fitness for chronological
activities. He is a practical farmer
besides being splendidly equipped fol-
pursuits in entomology. His connec-
ton with the state board In former
years proved then that he was admir-
ably fitted for the work.
His success in developing a special
lied cotton in this county has made
Mr. Lewis a name all over the state.
A strong petition for the election Of
Mr.. Lewis will be presented to the
state board, together with other inhu-
entail endorsements. These, togethe;
with Dir. Lewis own record Of
achievement, should be ample to con-
vince the board that he is the very
man for the place.
The Times Recorder, without heing
personally acquainted with MIR. Lewis
is thoroughly familiar with his work
end his capacity for work, and be-
lieves that the interests of the state
will be well served in his selection for
state entomologist.
