another game to their long list of
victories Wednesday night when
they took over the Marietta Com
mercial college dribblers by a score
of rs to At. Wagon Co., collective
ly, as well as individually never
played in better form. For some
time after the game started the two
teams ran practically an even score,
until each had made four fields,
then the Wagon Co. players led out
and continued to increase their lead
throughout the balance Of the game.
Both teams made some fine long bas-
kets, and lie Faber for Marietta
Icaged four fields from near the cen
ter of the floor. Both teams played
Unusually clean throughout, only
five fouls were called altogether and
to Marietta goes the honor of MAX
ing the fewest fouls ever made in a
regular game on the local floor. In
the first half not a foul was register
ed against them, and in the second
half but two. Their gentlemanly
conduct and clean playing caught
the admiration of the crowd, and
whenever they scored they were al
most as enthusiastically cheered as
were our own home players.

OUTSTANDING WOMEN

An interesting incident is given prominence in
a recent issue Of the ST. Augustine Record which
tells of vote being taken>to decide who are the
seven outstanding business and professional women
of that city 1t to be noted that high society did
not figure in the test the fondlers CT poodle

character and worth-he element Of usefulness in
the world the measure of service, the inspiration Of
faithful effort in lfes daily grind-these were some
of the things taken into the reckoning. It is to the
credit of wcmens organizations that they are rails
ing higher standards OF living and of practice in
the social business wcrld The day has gene by
when women. young or cid, though they be pos
sessed of substantial bank balance find ii either
profitable or agreeable 10 simply kill time. In
these days of needed activity women are turning
thought and attention to the things that count and
even club life is changing somewhat in character
from mere entertainment to lines of achievement.
Perhaps it is safe to assume that any community
taking stock of its womanhood and elevating TO
highest rank any number Of its outstanding women,
would inevitably and naturally turn to these who
are accustomed to make the most Of the fleeing
hours and days for the betterment Of their homes,
their city, their SKATE, their country.

FROM OUR READERS

Editor Evening Telegram: AS sit

with "Old Glory floating over me, my
mind reyerts to scenes of my early
manhood. Sixty-four years ago 1 de-
livered my first Fourth of July ora
ton. l was q years old and just grad
uated from our State University at
Oxford, Miss.
The occasion was an old time bar
becue celebration of the birthday of
our nation.
How my heart tingled with pride as
l faced that great crowd and spoke OF
the glorious struggle our ancestors
had with the Mother country. The
closing sentence was, when l come
to die l hope my last lingering glance
will fall upon the Stars and Stripes

free and the home of the brave"
My audience to a man was with me
in sentiment. Four years passed, but
times had changed and at the same
place | made a secession speech and
organized a company for Confederate
service and fought to the bitter end
The world knows the result. We
were over-powered and returned to
our southland made desolate by van
dial methods.
We failed to establish the Southern
Confederacy but we are not ashamed
of the part we took in the great and
glorious war, for we were fighting for
what we thought was right.
No animosity exists in our hearts
against the men who fought for the
Union. Ex-Confederates their sons and
grandsons during the administrations
of Mckinley and Woodrow Wilson
proved by their actions that they are
loyal to the flag and are true American
citizens, and, as such, claim all the
rights and privileges guaranteed by
the Constitution of the United States
of America.
Hence we claim the right and en-
Joy the pleasure of celebrating the
Fourth of July in a patriotic manner

WHY TRADE FREEZES UP"
Captain, you win; the ayes have it!

An idea conveyed in recent advertisement OF
Tie Chicago American, which deserves TO be con-
sidered and remembered by business men, is ex-
pressed as fellows:
Generally speaking, business has this unbusness-
Ike habit:
When egerybcdys on buying jag" business
breaks It's neck TO supply demand 1t buys, hires,
builds and borrows. 1t expands enormously.
Under such condhcns, business employs every
means that it recognizes tic increase output and
sales. And il GGpert;ses lis head off TO a public

When times are bad it uses an advertising squirt

People are not much interested in advertising
when their pockets bullying with money to be
spent spent, spent
But they intensely Interested in advertising
when what they spend must be carefully spent
Then they buy what they can aGord-and they
know advertising tells them where TO find it.
Some day, not now, pcfhaps. but some day,
business will learn to conserve its advertising energy

U. S. SOLDIERS ENROLLED
AT KU KLUX KLAN MEET

BALTIMORE, Md, August 10
Several soldiers of the United States
Army at Camp Meade were said to
have been among the candidates ini-
tiated into the Ku Klux Klan at
spectacular open-air ceremonies at
Odenton, Md. last night. in which
representatives of klans from Della
ware and Virginia participated
The neophytes at last nights cere-
monies had taken off their uniforms
and were wearing civilian clothes.
The exact number of soldier candi-
dates could not be learned. Soldiers
among the 1900 or more witnesses of
the ceremonies said there had been
khan propaganda in camp for a long
time and that many soldiers had join
ed for the fun of wearing a white
nightgown and becoming a ghost"
So far as could be ascertained at
Sd Corps Army headquarters here
United States soldiers are not for
hidden to Join the Ku klux Klan nor
has the Army taken any position with
regard to the organization.
