noted as a trainer of teachers. For a
long time its trustees and faculty
took pride in this fact. They realized
the service which was being rendered
throughout the country by Cornell

stars of the various faculties going
elsewhere, largely because of the
higher salaries offered.
The only way to retain members of

THE AMERICAN LEGION
is ORGANIZED HERE

The American Legion is a demo-
cratic organization in every sense of
the word There may have been
castles in the army, and certain dis
tinctions were considered necessary
to discipline. But militarism is for
eign to American ideals and institu-
tions, and it cannot permanently sur
vive. The legion will held to bury
it and its false standards, and will
strive for permanent peace with hon
or. At the same time its members will
fight Bolshevism, anarchy and other
un-American doctrines, and they will
band themselves together for mutual
helpfulness and comradeship to recall
and cherish the memories that have
been recorded in blood and sacrifice.
1t will take up the fight for social
and political justice where the Con-
federate veterans and the Grand Ar
my of the Republic leave off, and in
the hands of men who potentially
laid down their all on the altar of
their country the future of this re-
public may be presumed to be safe

WHAT SOUTHERN WHITE
MEN THINK OF SOUTH
ERIN WHITE WOMEN

"You did not wait for woman suf-
frage," the late DR.. Anna Shaw once
argued to the men of the South,
"but DISTINGUISHED both your black
and white women, thus making them
politically equal" This she said in
answer to the men of Louisiana
when she was asked to answer from
New Orleans platform the follow
ing objection to giving women the
vote: eff you give the ballot to wo-
men, won't you make the black and
white woman equal politically and
therefore lay the foundation for
future claim of social equality?"
eff political equality is the basis
of social equality, and if by granting
political equality you lay the foun-
dation for claim of social equali-
ty, YOU have already laid that
claim" was her answer. "But you
have done more than that. You have
put the ballot into the hands of your
black men, thus making them the po-
litical superiors of your white wo-
men. Never before in the history of
the world have men made former
slaves the political masters of their
former mistresses.
"The women in the South are not
alone in their humiliation-all women
in America share it with them. There
is no other nation in the world in
which women hold the position of
political degradation our American
women hold today. German women
are governed by German men;
French women are governed by
French men. But in these United
States, American women are govern
ed by every race of men under the
light of the sun. There is not a
color from white to black, from red
to yellow; there is not nation from
pole to pole, that does not send its
contingent to govern American wo-
men.
eff American men are willing to
leave their women in position as
degrading as this, they need not be
surprised when American women re-
solve to lift themselves out of it."

The Marietta Journal, in censur-
ing a man for publishing his picture
in uniform in connection with his
announcement for office, should re-
member that a soldier recently re-
turned from the front has nothing
but a uniform-and a lot of expert
ence. And, along with this, a lot of
sfaction-satisfact at having
gone, but more particularly at hav-
ing returned.-Montgomery Monitor.
