Edgar Patterson
Killed In Washington

Edgar Patterson, well-known and
wcll-beloved Fitzgerald boy, was kill
cd Saturday morning by street car
in Washington, D. c., where he was
in the government service as expert
accountant in the clerical department
OF the aviation corps. The details of
the accident in which he lost his life
have not reached Fitzgerald.
Edgar Patterson was twenty-one
years old and had graduated this
spring from the Commerce Depart
ment of the University of Georgia
with the highest llonors. He was a
charter member OF the Georgia chap
ter Of the college of commerce frater-
nifty corresponding to the Phi Beta
Kappa, had been chosen as student
instructor on account of his high
standing, had been a debater of note
all through his four years at the Uni
versity and was honored and respect
ed by every man at the University
for his brilliant mind and his splendid
character.
The young man was a gradute OF
the Fitzge, aid High School where he
left a splendid record in studies, de-
batting and athletics-and countless
friends to whom his loss is most
grievous. Not only his family but
hundreds of friends and college mates
throughout the state sorrow deeply
that Edgar Patterson is dead.
Patterson was without doubt one OF
the most promising young men that
Fitzgerald has ever produced. The
government had decided that because
OF i is exceptional ability he was more
valuable in a clerical capacity than
i'll the army and he had accepted a
splendid position in the clerical de-
partment of the aviation corps in
April. Then he married Miss Ger
trude Hill, daughter of Rev. L. A.
Hill and took her to Washington, D.
G.. to make their home. That young
Patterson leaves bride of scarce two
months to mourn him, makes his
death even more lamentable.
Rev, L. A. Hill, the father of the
bereaved wife, went to Washington
Immediately on receipt of the news
of the accident and will reach Fitz.

Sing At Lrwinville
A Grand Success

Five thousand music lovers braved
a torrential rain, surmounted the ca
tastrophe of having their tent blown
down, and conducted the most sue
cessful singing convention at Irwin
vile Saturday and Sunday, since Mr..
w. J. Royal, the Nestor of the sing
ing masters OF Georgia, first started
his campaign of songs.
When the big tent was blown down
Judge ]. B. Clements came to the con-
vention's rescue by having his spa
spacious cotton warehouse cleaned out
and put in shape for the songsters
Pews and chairs in all the churches
were commandeered and the conclave
opened Saturday morning under a
good roof-and fortunate circum-
, stance it was, for it rained, and rain
cd and rained.
Col. John w. Bale, OF Rome, the
delegate from Floyd County, delivered
the opening address. Mr.. Martin Lee
responded e1oquently. Ten singing
classes furnished music for the huge
crowd of five thousand that packed
the warehouse and all the dry places
in Irwinville.
This was the 10th annual session
and the biggest of the Royal Singers
and it goes without saying that Mr.
w. ]. Royal, the boss singer, was the
happiest man in seven states. Long
life to the Royal Singers, say we, and
more strength to their golden voices

BOOSTERS LEAVE
FOR WEEK TOUR
Of NORTHERN
GEORGIA

Despite rain, mud, the boil wee
vii and the high price OF gasoline,
about fifteen cars braved the ele-
ments and the dangers of the road
and rolled out OF Fitzgerald and
Ben Hill county at nine o'clock
this morning toward the wilds OF
North Georgia, where they will
spread the fame OF our fair sec
ton.
At least twice as large a represcn-
tation would have made the trip had
it not been for the torrential rains
but many lost heart after Jupiter Plu-
vius had spilled his whole reserve sup
ply into South Georgia, and decided
that they would be able to do more
for Their county by working for it at
home than by fighting for it in for
eign land" in the red old hills of
North Georgia.
Secretary E. Y Clarke, of the Cham
Der of Commerce has spread the news
OF the coming OF the touS. throughout
its line of march, or as is now the
case, throughout its sailing route, for
the cars will have to prove their sea-
worthiness as we'll as their road burn
ing qualities.
The tour will be precedcded by the
Advance Publicity car which will go
twenty-four hours ahead to advertise
its coming. Editor Isidor Gelders, OF
the LeaderEnteIprise, Mr.. w. R.
Tucker, OF the A. B. & A. Extension
department, and Mr.. B. L. Mccoy,
representative of the Moon automo-
bile left Atlanta this morning in a big
Six Moon to spread the surface of
North Georgia with Ben Hill county
advertising literature. They will
make the entire route if they have to
swim it so Ben Hill county and Fitz-
gerald are sure of generous adver-
Using, whatever may be the fortune
of the rest u the tourists.
Although the reporter had smain op-
portunity to get the full list OF boost
ers, the following citizens are max

Peace
Plans Backed
byHungQrian

Basel, Monday, Sept. 9,-Presi-
dent Wilson's program as a base
for the negotiations for peace are
endorsed by Count Michael Kar-
olyi, president of the Hungarian In
depent party. A dispatch from
Budapest quoting from an open let
ter written by Count Karolyi to his
electors to whom he recommends
an early peace, says:
A decisive military victory, de-
spite its successes is dream for
which il is useless to pursue. The
prime conditions of peace negotia-
tiOns is the characterization of ma
tons and the abandonment of i'm
perialistic theories. A second CON
dItion is that we should not be
come slaves to the idea of a middle
Europe, either militarially, econom-
iCally or politically and that we
should not strengthen our alliance
with Germany which would form
the first step towards the realiza-
ton of this central Europe.
I'VE ought to accept as a basis
for negotiations President Wilson's
program"
