GOVERNGR SPEECHES.
BEFORE BEAUTY THRONG

VALDUSTA, Nov. with a bold
ness which swept aside thoughts of
personal or political popularity Gov
ornor Hardwick yesterday while a
visitor in Valdosta laid bare the fl
nanciaI needs Of Georgia in order to
properly maintain its institutions in
manner befitting Georgia and the
needs Of her people.
While a breakfast guest at the
South Georgia State Normal college
at the invitation of President r. H
Powell, Governor hardwick express
cd his appreciation of the beautiful
reception accorded him by the facul
ty and student body, remarking that
In his younger days he fela that he
could hold his own with one lovely
woman, but in the presence of such
an aggregation of beauty and grace
he was speechless. Seriously speak
ing the governor declared that the
South Georgia Normal college in
turning out well trained teachers was
performing a work which there is
none more important, because its
teachers were pioneering in removing
the last traces of white illiteracy in
Georgia. 1t was his hope, he said
to see the time, and not far distant,
when Georgia could give to this insti.
tuition the financial assistance it not
only merlted but demanded.
The breakfast of which the gov
ernor partook was the regular meal
served in the regular way by some
of Georgia's finest girls, made eff
tlclent through the wonderful traip
ing given by this college in all lines
