PRESIDENT BIDS
FRANCE GOODBYE
lat PARIS Dinner
Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson Guests Of
Poincare With Other
Peace Conference
Delegates.

Paris, June 26.-(By the Asso
ciated Press).-President Poincaire
Thursday night gave a dinner tc
President Wilson and all the dele
gates to the peace conference. Mrs
Wilson accompanied the president
Responding to an address made
by M. Poincare, President Wilson
said in part:
Il thank you most sincerely fol
the words that you have uttered.
cannot pretend the prospect of go.
ing home is not very delightful tc
me, but / can say with the Creates
sincerity that the prospect of leav.
ing France is very painful to me
l have received a peculiarly gener.
Gus welcome here.
II feel that my stay here, sir, has
enlightened both my heart and my
mind. 1t has enabled me personally
to see the evidence of the suffering
and the sacrifices of France. 1t has
enabled me to come into personal
touch with the leaders of the French
people and through the medium OF
intercourse with them to under
stand better.
Slow But Sure.
Sometimes the work of the con.
ference has seemed togo slowly in
deed. Sometimes it has seemed as
if there were unnecessary obstacles
to agreement but as the weeks have
heightened I have seemed to see
the profit that came out of that.
These six months have been six
months which have woven new
fibers of connections between the
hearts Of our people. And some
thing more than friendship and init
mate sympathy has come out of this
intercourse. When we part, we are
not going to part with a finished
work, but with a work one portion
of which is finished and the other
portion of which is only begun.
1--WE have finished the formula
ton of the peace, but we have be-
gun a plan of cooperation which /
believe will broaden and strengthen
as the years 60 by, so that this grip
of the hand that we have taken now
will not need to be relaxed.
"The wrong that was done in the
waging Of this war was a great
wrong, but it Weakened the world to
a great moral necessity of seeing
that it was necessary that men
should band themselves together in
order that such a wrong should
never be perpetrated again.
Merely to beat nation that was
wrong once is not enough. There
must follow the warning to all 9TH
err nations that would do like things
that they in turn will be vanquished
and shamed if they attempt dis
honorable purpose.
$50, sir, in saying goodbye to
France, | am only saying sort CT
physical goodbye. not a spiritual
goodbye I shalt retain in my heart
always the warm feelings which the
generous treatment of this grea!
goodbye. l shall retain in my heart
And wish in my turn, sir, to pro-
pose, as you have proposed, the
continued and increasing friendship
of the two nations, the safety and
prosperity of France the closer and
closer communication of free peo-
pies and the strengthening of every
influence which instructs the mind
and the purpose of humanity"

CLUB WOMEN ENDORSE
AGNES SCOTT CAMPAIGN

While the Georgia Federation of
Women's Club is not allowed, as an
organization, to publicly endorse a
campaign or to work in a drive, at
an all-day meeting of the executive
committee held in Atlanta September
%, the members were urged, as wo-
men and loyal Georgians, to individu-
ally lend their cooperation and in
terest to the Agnes Scott endowment
campaign.
The officials of the campaign, feel
much gratifeld at this action, and are
certain that it will mean much to the
movement as they feel that this recog-
milton of all the splendid work the
College is doing by Georgia's leading
women will carry a great deal of
weight
Plans for this campaign, which
opens October IA, are nearing COM
pletion, in all the eight Southern
States in which it will be carried on.
OF the 100000 sought, 1925, 1000 will
be asked from the South, while S175,-
900 has been promised by the Gen
eral Education Baord, of New York,
on condition that the college raises
$325,000.
The tremendous growth of the need
for Southern Colleges is point
stressed by the officials in the cam
paign. Working on the basis that
Agnes Scott was forced to turn away
over two hundred students because
of crowde dcontditions, it is estimat-
ed that approximately 5000 Georgia
girls were forced to attend colleges
outside of the State.
According to the apportionment
made by counties of the state in the
campaign $500 will be Cobb coun-
tvs quota.

CLUB MEMBERS INVEST WISELY

How the boys and girls in clubs or
gained by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture and the State
Colleges spend the money that they
make in club WORK is as interesting as
how they earn it. Tens of thousands
bought baby bonds" or War Savings
Stamps. The majority have savings
accounts. Some use their profits and
prizes to increase the size of their
club enterprises. A great many in
vest it in higher education. 1t is. sell
dom that one fritters it away in small
indulgences. Possibly this is because
too many candy and movie items
do not look we'll in an account book.
These books contain the story of the
club boys and girls project and are
turned in to their club leader at the
close of the year
A little club girl in Charleston
County, S. c., is using her earnings to
make first payment on home. She
has always lived in a rented house.
Last year she had club garden and
as her interest in the work grew so
also did she desire for home of her
own, with an acre of ground attach
ed. She finally decided she would
earn one. She has worked during two
summers, saving every cent for the
future purchase money. This
fall she will have enough to make the
and acre of ground she has wished
and worked for.
A 12-year-old club girl in VIM
Parish, La, recently obtained a per-
feet mark on 500-word spelling test.
Her father had promised that if she
did so he would give her any prize she
desired. One of her classmates had
been promised the same thing by her
father. The classmate asked for a
silk dress, the club member for a
small steam-pressure cooker.

WHY THE SWINDLER
DIDN'T APPEAR

1t is impossible to say in just how
many ways local farmers organi-
cation can be helpful to its members.
Here is one example.
In the writer's county a company
of farmers operate a warehouse. In
charge of this warehouse as directors
are some level-headed farmers with
good business judgement, who have
also retained good local lawyer as
their attorney. Into this community
recently came some agents selling
stock in a Florida soft phosphate COM
pany, and making all kinds of prom
ises to prospective investors. The
farmers in this community said to the
agent: "Well, we should like to have
the combined judgement of our best
men about your proposition. We will
get our board OF directors to meet at
such and such an hour, together with
our attorney, and you may come be-
fore them and tell them your pro-
posal. Then if after their investiga-
ton they think it safe and wise for
us to invest our money with you, we
will do So" The agent, of course,
had to agree that this was fair enough
proposition and promised to meet the
directors. But when the appointed
time for the meeting came, he was mo-
where to be found. He had skipped
on to other pastures where farmers
were more gullible and less we'll or
ganized!
Just now when the woods are full
OF swindling, stock-selling agents,
this sort of cooperation might be
practiced to advantage in almost any
county in the South.-Progressive

Athletic roles seem to appeal to
Charles Ray, who will be seen in "The
Egg Crate Wallop," his latest Para
mount-Artcraft picture, at the Strand
Theater next Monday. Since becom-
ing Thomas H. Ince star, Mr. Ray
has been baseball player, a runner,

an extremely well developed, agile

new picture. The star has the role
of helper for the country express
agent at his home town. He attracts
the attention of prize fight promo

a tramp. When his girls father, the
express agent, is accused of theft, the
"helper" leaves town to divert sus-

GEORGIA ORGANIZING
FOR MEMORIAL FUNDS

Atlanta, October 6.-Governor
Hugh M. Dorsey today accepted ap-
pointment as honorary president of
the Roosevelt Memorial Association
for Georgia, and issued the following
statement C. w. Mcclure, state ex-
ecutive chairman:
at was on the soil of this state
in the historic little town of Ros-
well-that his mother was born. 1t
was there, also, that she welded the
man of her choice, on the eve of the
great Civil War. Bulloch Hall, the
fine old Colonial mansion in which
the Ex-President's mother spent her
girlhood days, is one of the few sur
viving landmarks of the ante-bellum
period.
"Archibald Bulloch, an ancestor of
Mr.. Roosevelt, was President Of the
Executive Council when Georgia be-
came a commonwealth in 1875. It
was likewise his rare privilege, first
of all Georgians, to read the Declara-
ton of Independence Immediately fol-
lowing it's reception in Savannah.
Much of the sturdy Americanism
which characterized the public life of
Mr.. Roosevelt was an inheritance
from this poineer Georgia patriot 1t
also explains, in degree, the strong
grip which Mr.. Roosevelt held upon
the popular imagination of Georgians,
and the warm place which Georgia
always occupied in his affections.
Irrespective of political differ
ences, the people of Georgia feel just
pride in the career and character of
Theodore Roosevelt, the eminent
American"
Georgia's quota of the $5,000,000
memorial fund is $4,000. Subscrip-
tons are already coming in. The
campaign proper begins October 20,
ending October 27, Roosevelt birth
day, when memorial meetings will
be held in every community in the
United States and in countries with
which it was allied in the war.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infiamed you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing. and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh which is
an infiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system

about the Sardis bank, as pointed out
by Georgia bankers, is its method of
doing business. 1t lends money on
cotton only to farmers. The average
country bank pays more attention to
lending to buyers. For the last two
years, it is stated, no farmer has sold
cotton in this banks territory unless
he was ready to sell. While the bank
pays for cotton for buyers, it re-
quires quick and frequent settle
ments.
