Prior to the offering of a resolution

LIBRARY EXTENSION FOR
GEORGIA RURAL COMMUNITIES

Atlanta. Ga, July 2G.-Of much In
terest to the educators of the state Is
the effort now being made to extend
the literary facilities of the state
An annual appropriation of $4,000 Is
requested this year for books for the
rural districts,
Mrs. John X. Ottley, chairman OF
the Library Commission, has stress
ed the need for library extension in
Georgia. and in a recent discussion
of the matter, she said:
"Georgians cannot hope to Keep
pace in intelligent citizenship with
other states as long as all books are
denied them How can our people
think intelligently when they have
no information to think about. For
Georgia to spend $3,000,O0O annually
on teaching her people and not one
cent in placing books within their
reach to read is poor business"

BAD PLIGHT FOR
STATES GOOD NAME

Atlanta. Ga 25- Out-of-state news
papers are commenting on the fact
that Georgia is misrepresented and
embarrassed by the campaigns OF
Hardwick and Howard for the United
States Senate.
The Athens Banner calls attention to
this, and says that Hardwick and How
ard have placed Georgia in line with
the Teutonic powers. The Banner also
prints the following from the Norfolk
(Va) Pilot:
Subsequent to the deep damnation
of the Lusitana's taking off and TO
Germans systematic violations Of the
neutrality of the United States, Will
Jams S. Howard, who is seeking seat
in the Senats from Georgia, declared
in public interview:
Germany will never be whipped
the German Nation and the German
people are our friends"
"For the people of Georgia to give
their endorsement to a mar capable Of
uttering such sentiments at a time
when the blood of every true American
was boiling with righteous wrath ag-
ainst Germany wanton trespass on
American rights and deliberate and
malicious sacrifice of American lives,
would reflect upon Georgia dishonor
even greater than the return to the
Senate of the present incumbent, Hard
wick. obstructionist and seditionlst
as he has been. Neither of these men
Ia worthy the post sought. Neither has
bis heart in the nations cause Georg-
la should put none but true and tried
PATRON on guard"
