 sixty per cent of the men who make success in business life are the men with a college education" said Dr. Will Hams. "In Who's Who in America. more than half of the names of the wer-known men who are listed there are graduates of some college.
 "The world today is calling for the collere-bred man. Never before in the history of the United States, or even the world. were the chances any better or anv greater for the college-bred man to make a success in the world
 "But the reason why all young men who are thinking of attending cohege' and especially our young men od 'le Baptist Church, should attend d Gni 10 fan college is because that Christian element and training that student re- ceives in a college that is maintained bv the churches is necessary for ms future success in the world.

Getting Leather From the Sea

Rs bert G. Skefrett, in Leslies.
 America can boast brand-new busi- ness And there is every indication that the industry will be a booming one, inA deed, if the present signs are fair fn dex of future demands. Sea feathers are plant. the materials hitherto furnished well-nigh entirely by the lowing herds and the bleating flocks.
 Surely this should be welcome news Tn view of the fact that a shortage of leather has for more than a year caused a good deal of disquietude among the people of the boot and shoe induotry
 Strange as it may seem, we who lead the world in the manufacture of footwear have been forced to pay more and more for our shoes during the last two or three years, and the end of soaring prices is not yet in sight.
 Today the government authorities have put their stamp of approval upon feathers made from the skins of sharks whales. dogfish, swordfsh, skates, rays. porpoises and other sea animals which abound in the waters that wash our shores. The fish mentioned can be made to furnish us with the raw material which can be worked into beautiful, strong ana | in every way desirable feathers fit for the making of shoes of the highest grades. Not only that. but the best of this footwear can be sold prohtably at less thar $4 a pair. Further the feathers ob- tained from these sources can be used
 for the manufacture of all sorts of com m odites.
 1 It takes no stretch of the imagination to
 grasp the prospective value of this new l field of effort. Of course, we have nc census of the creatures of the sea as we
 have of mans domesticated flocks and
 herds, but there is plenty of proof posi-
 tive that certain of our native waters
 literally teem with sharks, biackfish, DOT. pcises, etc. which can be readily caught
 In fact, special seines and other facilities have been recently developed which per.
 init of the taking of great hauls of this animal life.

B.Y.P. J. SESSION
 CLOSES TONIGHT
Andrews Chosen President of State Organization at
 Meeting Yesterday

The B. Y. P. '. convention at the Southside Baptist Church will close at g o'clock tonight The convention has been the most successful of any held in twen- ty-seven years. Between 450 and 600 vis- itors have been in attendance daily, 200 delegates more than have attended any past convention.
 There was much speculation yesterday as to where the 1921 convention will be held. Birmingham people declare many more delegates will attend the conven- tion in Birmingham than in Montgom- cry, Mobile. Selma or any other smaller town.
 Many of the delegates think that the convention should not be held in Bir- mingham for two successive years. How ever, most of them are of the opinion more delegates would be drawn to Bir- mingham than to any other place.
 O. l.. Andrews, president of the Bir- mingham branch, was elected president

Cossacks Flogged Villagers

From Ivan the Farmer" translated
 by Rose Strunsky from the Russian
 of Gleb Uspensky. III Asia Magazine.
 At last we reached the famine dis tricts where the peasants sat crushed and silent. grateful to the government for soup kitchens. They had used up their last seeds. had killed their year. lings had nothing to fight on and did not even complain Then came the peasants of Tamboff. who were going through the tortures of a punitive ex- petition, We entered a grave-like, silent village day after the Cossacks had descended upon 1t and had pub licly flogged fourteen of the villagers as a warning. Not a man was to be seen. A woman told us the story aud
 begged us to go on. In the neighbor-
 ins villages they looked blankly at us when we mentioned the manifesto
 w. knew that thousand of copies had
 been distributed in tsat province. but
 the peasants were suspicious and
 would not talk. It was in this very
 province that Maria Spiradonova shot
 the governor general for his excessiva 8, cruelties to the peasants Their very silence was answer enough.
 And so. in all my memory of the tr:p I have one definite impression. an outraged 'agricurural ideaf and the blame terribly fixed. But whether today. after the revolution. Ivan Err molaevich would be able to answer "yes" to Uspensky's question about the possibility of working on CO., operative basis is doubtful. One doesn't know. He has had violently forced education in the three years of war and three years of revolution. new Uspensky will have to go to the villages. live with Ivan Ermolaevich Again and ask him. Brother. how, was l 1t when Denikin's Cossacks came, or | when the red guards followed? If you work together. do you give your It. | tie children time to rlay?'

firmed. The Lowden people were cocker than ever today, but patient search failed to reveal any more votes for the gov ernor among the delegates
 The platform committee went into ses- sion as soon as the convention adjourned, and remained at work all night. It has rosy hopes of being able to reach decision on important blanks tomorrow morning. But nobody has the same hopes about getting the delegates to aplde py this decision.
 Failure to adopt the platform tomor- row will mean failure to nominate pe- fore Saturday. It may even mean run ming the rumpus over till next Mon day or Tuesday But that event Is re- mote. for with hotel rooms at $40 each' meals at s10. and liquor obtainable only from bootleggers at s10 a pint. there are few delegates sufficiently devoted to the party's best interests to stick around this town, when agreeing to anybody or anything would enable them to get back to the old home towns.

How American Women
 May Keep Faces Young
"rhe American smart woman ages early.

''The American smart woman ages early, far earlier than the English woman" says Christian Miller, F. c. l., the famous English health expert. She adds that our climate "so exhilarates that you over-exert yourselves and grow old before you know it. That same exhilarating air dries the skin. The skin that lacks moisture grows pale and withered looking and soon forms wrinkles.
 "The American complexion" is best treat cd by applying pure mercolized wax, which causes the faded. lifeless cuticle to flake eff in minute particles, a little each day, until the fresh, young skin beneath is wholly in evidence. Every druggist has mercolized wax; one ounce usually is sufficient. Spread on at night like cold cream, washing it of next morning.-Adv.
