WE MUST DOUBLE TEACHERS
AND PREACHERS SALARIES

There is not much hope for de-
veloping a really satisfactory rural
civilization in our time unless we
actually double teachers and preach
ers salaries.
We say double and we mean what
we say. Little bidding advances will
not suffice. We might as well face
the fact that these salaries must be
actually doubled-and the communi-
ties that get and keep the best teach
ers and preachers will be those that
have the grit and grace to act first
in this matter. And these, too, Will
be the neighborhoods which will most
attract settlers and laborers and rent
ers, and where land values will ad-
vance most. People worth while will
go where they find good schools and
churches, good teachers and live
preachers. And people will move
away from communities where their
children must go to gchool to SCRUB
teachers oand where churches and
other civilizing agencies are most
poorly supported.
In every part of the South our
farmers are better able to support
school and church than ever before.
Yet, as a matter of fact, the average
port to these agecies, if reckoned in
farmer is not giving as much sup
quantities of cotton, tobacco, peanuts
or pork, as he gave ten years ago.
We could easily double our present
contributions and not feel it, so

To those whose souls are attuned
to the harmony of music will come
the sweet melody of many well
trained voices in chants, choruses,
anthems, etc. Many there are to
whom the industrial side of life is
the most appealing; here they will
find this feature represented by a
group of fair young girls. So on
and on the many attractions of this
Pageant might be enumerated but it
will be better for it to be seen and
only in that way can it be apprecia-
ted. Let us not only see it but let
each one work for it that the fame of
the Marietta Y. w. C. A. may be
abroad in the land.

Pageant Dancing


Pageant Dancing
The dancing scene for the Pageant
promises to be the most spectacular
and picturesque part of the perform
ance and Marietta is full Of talented
girls who are taking keen interest
in planning the costumes and In work
ing out artistic color effects.
Mrs. Warren Benson, who has en-
tire charge of the making and dyeing
of the cotumes, will have some able
assistants in that work. Mrs. Henry
Wyatt, Jr., is so interested that she
has volunteered to make her own and
help with the others and many more
have followed suit, so the work rooms
will be busy place from now on.

Mrs. Grambling Gives
Dance for Daughter

One of the happy affairs of the
week was the dance given by Mrs. T.
A. Grambling for her daughter, Miss
Sara Wood Grabbing, and her house
guest, Miss Llewellyn Hereth, of In
dianapolis. Toupe's orchestra, from
Atlanta, furnished the delightful
music.

Marietta.

Through the medium OF the beau
tiful allegory, "The Vision of the
Blue Crusaders" will come to those
viewing it wider and broader vision
of life and of living for in it will be
something that will appeal to each
individual. The spiritual feature will
touch a responsive chord in those
whose lives flow in the more serious
channels of life. The intellectual
side will appeal to those of scholarly
attainments and deep thinking. The
artistic nature will be quickened by
the costumes and the generally mag
nifcent ensemble.

this cannot be done unless each one
who has promised to take part in
this feels and realizes her individual
responsibility land is willing to give
her time and talapt to this end. In
order that each group may be compile
ted, all those who have promised to
Participate in the Pageant must report
at the Y rooms by the Goth. This call
is made necessary because Of the i'm
portance of the rehearsals in the
schedule of the Directors.
Rehearsals
Rehearsals are being held twice
daily and wonderful progress is be-
ing made interest is growing in these
rehearsals as one realizes that they
are the units which will make the
perfect whole but without full at
tendance this end cannot be attained.
Groups Photographed
1t is the wish of the chairman of
Publicity, Mrs. ]. W. Legg and her
committee, to have the differenet
groups as they are rounded out and
completed, photographed, that they
may be published in the Atlanta and
local papers each week as an adver
tisement of what the Y. w. c. A.
is doing in this special work. Mr..
Ed Murray has very generously con-
sented to take these pictures and Mrs.
Chas. Guyton has offered the use of
her pretty grove as an outdoor set
ting for them. If it had not been
for the rain on last Saturday after
noon, this pleasant experience would
have fallen to the lot of the "Busi-
ness Girls" group 1t is hoped how
ever, that this may be accomplished
this week.
Work-room Activities
A call will be made within the
next week or ten days by Mrs. Regi-
ma R. Benson to those who have
signed the cards for this particular
line of work-the making of the
costumes and other necessary equip
ment. This work must be done at
the work-room of the Y. Mrs. Ben
son is chairman of the committee
which has this detail of the work of
the Pageant in charge; because of
this fact the artistic costuming of
those taking part is already assured.
1t is hoped that a ready response will
be made to this call when it is is
sued, as it is very important that
the costumes be finished as soon as
possible.

CLEMENCEAU WILL ASK
FOR ENDORSEMENT

Paris, July 23.-Premier Clemen-
ceau is going to put his war and peace
policies squarely up to the people of
France. He announced in the Cham
Der Of Deputies he would introduce
general election bill the day after
the peace treaty is ratified.
This announcement was made just
before the Chamber of Deputies gave
the Clemenceau ministry vote of
confidence by big majority.
1t was another characteristic politi-
cal victory for the old "Tiger."
Independent newspapers, comment
ing upon the historic scenes in the
Chamber yesterday, declare the pre-
mier routed his adversaries by the
threat to go before the people in a
new election and to allow them to
vote on the governments policies.
This was thing that the premier s
opponents most feared.
That M. Clemenceau is going to
fight to remain in power until his
work of concluding peace is fully COM
pleted was indicated by his speech.

A movie showing the favorite, Charlie
Chaplin, going his funny antics was then
thrown on the screen. Lieutenant Aaron
Rosenblatt of Royal Flying Corps gave
the soldiers an account in most inter-
esting and testing manner of his expert
ences as an aviator. He instantaneously
won the boys and became their buddy.
Last but not least, the boys were served
ice cream, cake and candy by bevy
of girls and matrons from st. Paul And
with a hearty approval that it was the
best party given them, the boys returned
to the hospital. The success of the af-
fair was due to the splendid efforts of
the women who assisted Dr. Marcus. Mrs.
Samuel Cohen and a group of co-work-
ers too numerous to be mentioned, of st.
Paul, had complete charge of the re-
freshments. The beaming faces, the
stamping and applause showed that the
boys more than enjoyed the entertain
ment given for them.

ability of the small number of workers
to cover the entire city heretofore. To

programs at the delightful new home of
the Red Cross, which is home to many
of the boys at the Fort. After many
vicissitudes, Dr. Marcus, his much be-
loved Ford, and his group of guests,
finally arrived at their destination. Long

as I have enjoyed the honor of fill

Pius ForetelI Winds.

The killing of a pig at sea IS always
an occasion of great moment, not only
for the reason that fresh meat Is to
be enjoyed-a great luxury on sailing
vessels, after perhaps months Of salt
provisions-but also because what Is
termed a pig breeze" or favorable
wind, may be regarded as a certainty.
Pigs when kept on sailing ships are
allowed very frequently to leave their
pens. and their movements on such
occasions, which are held to foretell
the wind to be expected, are watched
with the keenest interest. Should Il
pig evince any signs of l~aziness, lying
down or wandering almlessly about
the decks. then this Is a sign that
calm weather will come, with little or
no wind In prospect. Should, however,
the pig show a risky mood, with much
sQuealing, then It Is a sure sign of
