CONFEDERATE VETERANS
GREET AMERICAN LEGION

When the United Confederate Vet
Grams gathered from all parts of the
South and many of the North to hold
their annual convention in Atlanta
last week, they received message
of good wishes from the New York
headquarters of the American Legion
the newly organized World War Vet
Grams. Approaching the spirit of the
young veterans the older society have
sent the following message:
Atlanta Ga, October 9, 1919.
'The United Confederate Veterans
deeply appreciate the lovely greetings
of the American Legion. Your re-
cords of the conduct of our sons with
baptism Of the fire make our old
hearts warm, and we shall ever be
grateful that the members Of the Le-
gion have not counted their lives dear
unto themselves, and that they have
served God and their country. The
veterans of the Southland stand with
you ready for any service for our uni
ted country.

GROWTH OF THE HOG
INDUSTRY IN THE SOUTH

Some idea Of the rapid growth of
the hog industry in the South may be
obtained by a comparison of ship
ments Of hogs from the state of Mis-
sissippi in 1914 and 1919.
The chief market point for Missis-
sippi is the National Stock Yards, ILL.,,
(St. Louis Market). During the en-
tire year of 1914 the state of Missis-
sippi shipped less than 5000 hogs to
the St. Louis market, where as dur
ing the first six months of 1919 the
shipments Of hogs to this same maket
amounted to $4,000.
1t is possible that Mississippi has
increased her hog production more
rapidly than some others of the
Southern states, but some Of them
have no doubt done as well, and the
above figures may be taken as pret-
ty good index Of the growth Of hog
shipments from the South during the
past five ycars.-The Progressive
Farmer.

GIRL SCOUTS WILL HELP
N. Y. WOMEN VOTERS

The Girl Scouts, of New York City,
have been assigned by their director
to assist the women voters of that
place to register. Many women do
not know that in order to vote in next
Springs primaries they must register
this fall. If there is service the
Girl Scouts can perform to enable
busy mother to slip away long enough
they stand ready to do it. For the
Girl Scouts, as future voters, have
offered themselves for this task to the
City League of Women Voters, and
have promised Miss Mary Garrett
Hay, the Chairman, to hunt out all
the timid or careless or ignorant
women voters and bring them to the
polls.
When Miss Marion Bishop, Director
OF the Girl Scouts in Manhattan, ten
dered their help the scouts were en-
thusiastic. AS soon as they could be
assigned to districts in squads they
started work. Their slogan is regis
ter now to vote on Election Day and
enroll now to vote in the primaries
next spring on the choice of Presi-
dentaal Delegates, Governor and Uni
ted States Senator"
Mrs. Jane Deeter Rippin, National
Director of the Scouts, regards the
work as a training in citizenship for
the scouts.

Fully 100000 has been contribut-

yesterday by additional figures.

many churches in the state are to be

Miss Florence Minis Writes of
Premier Clemenceau's
Daughters Visit to
Boston

Dear Advertiser:
Recently Nine. Clemenceau Jac-
ouemaire, the daughter of Georges
Clemenceau, the premier of France,
spoke in the city.
Long years ago her father spent
some time in America and married
an American girl. Their daughter,
Nine. Clemenceau Jacquemaire hav-
ing inherited some of her fathers
talent, is an authoress, and duang
the war spent her time and energy
nursing American and allied soldiers.
She is strikingly delicate and
frail little person with brown hair
and rather an interesting face.
Having worked through the long
period of the struggle for France her
spirit is active but her strength al
most gone, so she sat behind table
on the platform with her type written
manuscript before, her. Her pronun-
citation of English was almost fault
less except every now and then
naive way of saying "ladies and
gentlemen" as we Americans ac-
cent the first syllable of Paris instead
of the last.
AS she entered upon the platform
the audience rose to greet her, sat
down, and rose again, as if to stress
the hearty welcome that they felt.
She chose the "Soul of France" as
the subject of her address, because
the real France, she said, was not
seen by the tourists who travel over
there. The Frenchman doesn't care
for travel, having little curiosity
about what other people are doing,
but loves his land and his home above
all else.
She seemed to have a very demo-
cratic spirit, believing as she did that
it was the peasant class who were the
salvation of France. Nowhere more
than in France the people appreciate
talent, so that man with great
gift might rise above his environ
ment.
That was the principle on which
our nation was founded, the. .aristoc-
racy, not of birth but of worth, but
it is triumph for France who learn
ed the lesson of democracy from her
sister, America.
Nothing binds two nations so close
" together as having their sons tight
side by side for so great a cause,
therefore she brought across to US
he gratitude of every French heart.
