through the country in their automo-

places in the hearts Of theih friends
here, and this return to the old home
was an occasion of mutual pleasure.
Mr. and Mrs Cornelius Buford Of
Nashville, Tenn, are stopping with
Mr.. and Mrs Willis Pope, on North
Seventh street They are most cor
daily welcomed to Columbus, and
Mr.. Buford, who is associated with
the organization of the new Chamber

claim to the regard of Columbians in
that he is the son of Mrs. Emma Bu-
ford, who, as the niece of DR.. Cor
lnelius Hardy, spent a most attractive
girlhood in this city.

1t is very gratifying to Columbus
to acquire such additions to its citi-
zenship as Mr.. Alfred Downes and
his family, who have recently moved
to this city from Carrollton, Ala. Mr..
Downes is practicing attorney, and
will, no doubt, receive a cordial well

city. Mrs. Downes, formerly Miss
Katherine Shelton, of the Barrow fac

own in the hearts of Columbians.

MERGE OF Reno could not have been i'm
proved upon. As president of the or
ganization, Mr. Knight has already
injected an energy and spirit into it
that has brought it into the limelight
as great factor in the commercial life,
not only of Reno but also Of the entire
state.
"As dean of the college OF agricul-
ture at the university of Nevada, he
has proved that he possesses great ex-
ecutive ability and also that intutive
spirit of leadership which wins for
whatever he is interested in, 1t is es.
pecially fitting that a man with know
ledge such as he possesses OF the agri-
cultural and mineral possibilities and
resources Of Nevada should be placed in
the important position of secretary Of
a chamber of commerce., whose object
is to build up the state.
And as man, Dean Knight is the
kind of secretary the chamber of com
merce must have, too. He knows how
to meet every body and anybody, he is a
cultured, broad minded man who can
enter any company on an equal footing
and he is, above all things else,
leader -

CHARLES KNIGHT HoNORED.
Our Former Citizen Elected Secretary
of the Reno Chamber of Commerce.


From Reno Nevada Evening Gazette, Ian. 10
Charles S Knight, dean Of the col
lege of agriculture at the University of
Nevada, has been elected secretary Of
the Reno Chamber of Commerce to
take Office july |, 1920. He accepted
the position today and handed his re-
signation to the university effective on
that date.
Dean Knight was authorized to APP.
point an assistant secretary to handle
the duties of the office until July /. In
the interim he will serve as director
president and continue as president, to
which office he was elected two weeks
ago.
There were eight applications for
the position of secretary Of the organi-
ton, most of these men of prominence
in chamber Of commerce work in Cali
fornia cities, said one of the directors
today, but in making their selection
the directors sought man who, they
thought, held the interests of Reno and
Nevada at heart and understood the
problems and needs Of the community
and state.
Under the new program of work
outlined and the new responsibilities
that the Reno Chamber of Commerce
has undertaken, we required real y
big man combination OF the dipio-
mat, the student and the executive. We
know Dean Knight is all that and con
graduate ourselves on inducing HIM to
leave the important post he holds at
the university to take up the work of
the Chamber of Commerce -
Since becoming dean of the college Of
agriculture of the university, Dean
Knight has played the principal part in
enlarging and broadening the scope of
the departments so az to give the
greatest service to both the students
who attend and the farmers of the
state who look to it for guidance in
crop and cattle production Since he
has been dean, the college has grown
from few students housed in small
buildings to a college of almost 100
students taking their work in the finest
building on the campus.
Dean Knight was president Of the
Commercial Club last year and this year
when the club was reorganized into the
Reno Chamber of Commerce and the
successful campaign for 1900 members
finished he was chosen as president for
the second time.

John f. Costello, Democratic ma
tional committeeman of the District
Of Columbia, who was at the White
House today, announced that he was
conducting n campaign to have a Dis
trict suffrage plank inserted in the
platform adopted at the national
convention at San Francisco.
While Mr.. Costello has not yet
communicated with the President on
the subject of enfranchising the Dis
trict Of Columbia, he expects to OBJ
tain the support of che administra-
ton in his movement to pledge the
Democratic party to the principle. AL
ready he has talked to a number of
members of the Democratic National
Committee, including Isidore b. Dock
weller, of California, and a. +. Null
len, who are in Washington this
week.
Mr.. Costello said today that he had
received gratifying encouragement
from Democratic political leaders and
expected ultimately to take up the
matter with each member of the ma
tional committee and the members of
the Cabinet. IL necessary, he said.
he will establish adequate headquar-
tiers in San Francisco to round up
the politicians who will swarm the
city for the convention.
II am almost certain that the con-
vention will act favorably, as the
Washington committee is bound to
make a distinct impression" said Mr..
Costello. Il think the six delegates
from the District to the convention
should be elected on the platform to
work for the suffrage plank. so that
we will have united action.
Recently, delegates interested in
freeing ireland, called on me to OBJ
