When Georgia Military academy at
 College Park, Ga, begins the fall term
 of 1918. accommodations will have been
 provided for total of 25O cadets
 through the erection of a handsome new building known as Memorial hall Last
 Session was the most successful in the,
 history of the institution, and it will
 start the new session with even bright
 CT prospects.
 Work on the building is well under
 way Memorial hall as the name im-
 plies, will be dedicated to the former cadets who are now in the service of their country. It will be sleeping ac- commodations for 66 cadets, the pres iident's and directors office, teachers rooms, reception hall, dining hall seat ling 25O cadets and kitchen conveniences. It wih cost approximately $50,000. The expansion of the academy was undertaken recently. when Col. J. C.. Woodward, who founded the institu- tion, IS years ago, invited some of his friends to join him in incorporating the school. Seventy-five citizens of
 Atlanta and former cadets were so inn pressed with the possibilities of Geor- gia Military academy that they became stockholders.
 There will be no change in the poli- cies of the school. Under the reor- ganization, Colonel Woodward will have the active co cooperation and influence of these business men in building the schools future and enlarging the scope of the work. There never has been a change of administration since tho academy was established.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Honoring the Volunteers

To tho Editor of The Age-Herald:
 In this mornings Age Herald, July ), there is a letter from Captain Hutchin- son of the recruiting station, in which the public is taken to task in regard to the treatment of the men who volunteer that they deserve better treatment, as they leave for camps" I want to enter a plea of defense for the public. and 1t IS this The volunteers go to the recruiting station, perhaps, one or two, perhaps many moro; their act is not known; they enlist and often take first train out or town; perhaps we'll see in the morning paper that such and such a boy has left for certain camp. That is the first m timation of the enlistment. Now, the selectmen's names are published by the exemption board weeks ahead of the day they receive orders. The different organ izations get busy and are ready to ao them honor in different ways, not be- cause they are more worthy, no; but pe- cause, as 1 say, we do not know about the volunteers. We honor them above all, and could we but know about them, gladly would we do for them what We oo for the seectmen.
 In Bessemer a number of boys left for camp unknown to the Woman's Chris tian Temperance union, who had been supplying kits to selectmen and it grieved us that the other boys left without the knowledge of our organization. We have endeavored to send thees boys kits after reaching camp.
 Now. as Captain Hutchinson himself could do much to remedy this state or affairs by calling the heads of the or ganizations who see to the comfort ol the boys, I suggest that he add th's duty to his already overflowing budget.
 The national council of defense, tfe Womans Christian Temperance unlcn (this latter can be reached by calling Mrs. Mary T. Jeffries, 2S67 Main, pres ident state w. c. T. U., or Mrs. f'. N. Jackson, president Central union, phoEe PAS Main). If the boys are from Besse- mer, he would be conferring favor Il he wouli call Mrs Gardner Goodwin, chairman of national defense 731 Besse- mer, or Mrs. w. B. Hill, superintendent soldiers ana sailors work for w. '. T. U., 5s0-J Bessemer.
 This is asking great deal of him. but it is tine only solution of the proo- lem as far as I can see.
 Our three sons have volunteered, two for the army and one for the navy, put I can bear no ill will to the public be cause no attention was shown them, TOT can well understand that it is not pe- cause thec sacrifice was not honored but because the people did not know As told one Of them, The has the comfort of knowing that he volunteered, to make up for the lack of the noise and brass band send-off of the selectmen.
 All honor to the yolunteerl I trust the officers at naval recruiting station VIII follow these suggestions, too.

will draw his votes. However. every per son knows that his votes will come from other anti amendment candidates, as Governor Kilbys amendment following is organized and will not desert his ban ner, because the issue has been made amendment or no amendment and he IS the only representative of the amendment side.
 Amendists profess to believe that the strengthening of the Teasley campaign will aid them It is a matter of common knowledge that the one fear of the amendists was that Judge Brandon might gather together sufficient anti amendment votes and add to his personal following to give him the nomination. And Judge Brandon had been working with the idea that his personal following, plus his anti amendment vote and sec ond choice votes would nominate him.
 Many believe the second choice vote if used extensively will be factor in the primary. For this reason the Amendment campaign committee has urged suppor- ters of the amendment to refuse to vote a second choice, contending that as there is only one amendment candidate a sup porter of kilby can have no second choice. Friends of Judge Brandon are appealing for second choice votes, believ- ing the election will be decided by them.
 The announcement Ol ouuSC iNlSiaiN V. Evins of Birmingham as a candidate for judge of the court of appeals to fill the uneA rired term of Judge John Pei ham, deceased, has brought the only con- test for q judicial office. Judge Eviis opponent is Judge William H. Sanford who was named by Governor Henderson to succeed Judge Pelham, but whose term by limitation of law expires after the general election. The man nomi- mated in the August primary will con- plete the term.
 Judge Evns was a member of the ap- pellate court for nine months, succeeding Judge E. erry Thomas, resigned. f'e was named after the time limit for can didates expired two years ago and coulo not be {. candidate for another term
 Judge Sanford has served about the same time on the bench, having been named last year on the death of Judge Pelham.

IEASLEY SWITCH FEATURE | OF TIE PAST WEEK Newspaper Friends Making Effort to Center Strength
 on Anti-Amendist |WALLACE'S FRIENDS RATHER INDIGNANT feasley Support Will Have to Come From Wallace and Brandon
 If It Formidably
 Develops
By FRED H. GoRMLEy

Montgomery, July 6.-(Special. )-Ala-
 barna was present at the quaorenn;al con-
 vention of the Ancient, Grand and lGlorious Order of Political F1ip-Flop- lpers this week. The convention began
 Hast Sunday morning in Birmingham and Sfontinued throughout the week, the meet fngs being transferred from town to flown in order that the convenience Of
 1.-the actors might be considered. The lchief actors were the anti-amendists, who have heen groping in the dark for
 some weeks in an effort to find a candi- date for governor around whom all an- lti-amcndsts would gather
 A Birmingham newspaper reached the |conclusion that it had found the man. Judge Charles B. Teasley of Montgom~ )ery was selected and last Sunday morn 4 ing this newspaper opened the conven- tion of Flip-Floppers, jumping over to Judge Teasley as the best man to de- feat Lieut.. Gov. Thomas E. Kilby, pro hibition amendment candidate.
 This brought new courage to the Teas ley campaign and lent a dignity to his race which it had not had before. In fact, it must be said that Judge Teasley had not been looked upon as formi- dable candidate until the Birmingham paper came out for him.
 MOVED TO MONTGOMERY After Sunday morning the quadren- nial convention was moved to Montgom- cry where on Wednesday morning the Montgomery Advertiser became the chic f actor, announcing also its support of Judge Teasley. This was a surprise. It had been understood that this newspaper would support John H. Wallace, Jr. In fact, the Wallace campaign had relied on this newspaper and it was no secre, with the Wallace committee that the Ad- vertiser at the proper time would an-
 nounce it's support of MT. Wallace.
 But for some reason or other the Wal lace campaign committee did not have
 front seats at this Flip-Floppers' conven-
 tion. The fact of the business Is, Wal
 lace's organizati ton didn't receive an ln-
 vitation at all. The first information
 MT. Wallace had came from the publisher

For Governor of Alabama a BrandOn'S SAmeriCaniSm

The son of Methodist circuit rider, Reverend F. T.. J. Brandon who for more than 50 years preached all over the hills of north Alabama Bill Brandons Amer canism cannot be questioned He stands squarely for the separation of the church and state for the guard ing of our public schools from those who do not believe in this great institution of democracy and for the reading of the Bible in these schools
 Brandon, as governor, will resist with all his might any attempt the part of any foreign influence to dominate participate in the government of this state because he believes the guarding and maintaining of crucial time and at all times be put into the hands of only those who are 100 per cent American

of the Advertiser, who informed him Tuesday about noon that the Advertiser would be the chief entertainer at the convention the next morning and that the man to be cheer leader was Judge Tea sley.
 MT. Wallace talked little and thought a lot and after 8 long distance conver- sation with his campaign manager, Judge Oscar s. Lewis of Dothan, announcsd that something probably would be said on the subject during the campaign. Wal lace's friends boldly state that Wallace had been assured of the support of the Advertiser and that his campaign com mittee had intended to bring the Adver- tser out in his support as soon as cer- tain other newspapers were lined up-
 OTHERS TO FALL IN LINE
 It has been learned this week that sev- era1 smaller newspapers will entertain the Flip-Floppers' convention during the next few days In fact, some did It. tie entertaining this week. The editor of a weekly newspaper who was in Montgomery when it became known Tuesday night that the Advertiser would come out for Judge Teasley Wednesday morning. remarked: I'm sorry. My ed- itorial indorsing Teasley has already been written The Advertiser comes out Wednesday morning and my weekly edi- tion is not printed until Friday. Some body might thing there is some connec- tion between the two"
 And so it goes The Flip Peppers are before the people Judge Teasley for the moment is receiving the benefit. The one motive of the anti-amendists, according to their admission, is to center on can didate who can defeat the amendment candidate Lieutenant Governor Kilhy. r. inc fn hsa " hathp nr not one candidate can receive the combined vote of the anti-amendsts when there are three other candidates who are op. posed to the ratification of the amend ment.
 In a campaign such as this, where there are five candidates and where lit tie interest has been shown, a prediction as to the final outcome could not be con- sfdered for moment, but the strategy of the anti-amendists at this time is so mysterious no one out of the immediate circle can understand just why the latest move nas been made. It is a matter of common knowledge that a majority of the anti -amerdists who have been talkln2 g believe that Judge w. w. Brandon, be- cause of his personal popularity, is the strongest man against the amendment, and many anti-amendists believed their side would center on him. It would seem, though, that they had refused to do so because Judge Brandon had indi- cated a desire to catch the votes coming and going; in other words, to get amend rnent votes in the amendment sections and anti-amendment votes in anti amendment counties.
 However. personal friends of Judge Brandon always indicated that they did not believe the anti-amendists as an or ganization would support their candidate and certain men who have been the lead CTS in the organization of the campaign against ratification never would have gone to Judge Brandon. But the great surprise is that the rank and file of the anti-amendists who claim to have no mo- tive other than the defeat of the. amend ment should refuse to take the man who has been regarded as the strongest can dictate.
