10Th CENTURY
CLUB MEETS
The AUGMENTATION of EdwagI
Box" Is Revie wed By Baraboo
Ladies

The Twentieth Century club met
with Mrs. Oscar Wieglow on Thurs
day afternoon. A good attendance
was on hand to hear a most inter
esting review of the book entitled
THE Americanization of Edward
Box by Mrs. Geo. Astle and Mrs.
Z. NJ Doll. Briefly summarizing
their report it is to the effect that
to have good and new stories of
famous men, to tell and to know how
to tell the stories well, is enough
to make any book enjoyable. But
Mr.. Box has put much more than
this In his volume of "reminiscences.
Here was a little Dutch boy, six
years old, who came to America with
parents of moderate means and
without knowledge of English. What
did America DO for him and where
in did it fail? Thus looking back
he sees that he has to practice thrift
IN lana of waste, that lack OF
thoroughness Wag the curse Of
America" that the public schools
failed to provide rightly for the edu
cation of d child Of foreign birth.
that there was net respect enough
fer law and order, tIaS America did
not teach its young voters rightly as
to the significance IF the franchise.
To he American thes Particulars
are perhaps not so evident But to
the foreign born they seem distinct
lacks, they are a menace to that
characterization which is, today,
more than ever our fondest dream,
and which I'VE now realize more keen
~ than before is our most vital
need"
On the OIaer hand it offered Mr..
Box high idealism land the most
priceless gift that any nation can
offer, and that is opportunity" 1.-THE
sky is the limit TO the foreign born
who comes to America endowed with
honest endeavor and the ability
to carry through. In no land is the
way so clear and so free"
Mr. Box has demonstrated Ameri-
cas- opportunity for the foreign
born in that for a period of thirty
years, he was the editor of 1.-The
Ladies Home Journal" the success
of which has made him a remarkable
figure in the publishing world
Though his autobiography "The
AUGMENTATION of Edward Box" he
wen the Pulitzer prize of one thous
and dollars for the best American
biography of the year that teaches
patriotism and unselfish services to
the people. The next meeting of
the club will be held with Mrs. o. B

PROBLEMS IN
FAR @ F INDIA
Two Papers Dealing With Situa.
ton Presented to Fortnightly
Literary Club

India was dark continent for the
rest of the world until about the
time the Pilgrims landed in America.
1921. Previous to that time two East
India companies Of England had
been trading in the east and in the
year mentioned the first English
settlement was made, this at Calcut-
ia. The two companies were not
able to conduct their affairs salts
factorily to the government so Par
lament inaugura'ed reforms in
1873. In 1858 Queen Victoria was
made a sovereign and in 1877 she
was proclaimed Empress of India.
-At.~ths regular meeting of the
Fortnightly Literary club on Fri
day night az me hone of MIR. and
Mrs. f NJ. Adams, r. B. Grisgs
gave paper on the British Prcb-
lem in India" and tho above were
stated in the preliminary.
The speaker said t people were
divided into a mum. "a of religious
groups, Hindus, Mohammedians,
Buddhists and the lick hills people:
as to castles there are four leading
ones. priestly. military, trading and
In all there are about 1000
castles. About 80 per cent of the
people are rural and without educa-
ton. Great Britain has a problem in
India because one religious group is
afraid of another, will not trust it.
For That reason it is desired that
England remain in control. In fact the
people are not capable of governing
themselves and if left alone bloody
war or revolution would follow.
England is patient, the government
is slow, but with so many millions
of people reforms must be few.
Cattle are sacred and for that rea-
son few are killed. Cattle often eat
food the natives should have In India
there are about 101 cattle to the
SQUARE nile or lis million in ALL In
the United States there are but 26
to the square mile.
Not Better Against England
Miss Christine Wrightl spoke es-
pecially of Mahatma Gandhi, educat-
ed in England and, for some time
lawyer in South Africa. He is not
bitter against England but would like
10 see certain reforms, these TO be
accomplished by boycotting Great
Britain. He would have his people

many followers. Some time ago En-

order TO prevent further unrest. BY

STATE DAIRY INSPECTOR
VISITS FITZGERALD

The definite result of Mr.. Brannans
visit here on Wednesday as State Dairy
Inspector is that on his return to his
office he will write each dairyman
whom he visited letter of instruc-
tons on what his particular dairy
needs to make it sanitary. He will
send copies of these letters to the Wo-
mans Club committee and they can
ask for a local inspector to see if these
orders are carried out and if not Mr..
brannon will return about April 18th.
and make cases under the State laws
to enforce them.
Mr.. Brannon would not say that
our dairies were either better or worse
than the average-but there are GER
tain improvements that all must make
to comply with our state health laws.
One point that has worried our wo-
men the most, was that of any possible
tubercular affection but Mr.. Brannon
while not a veterinary inspector as
sured the Club, that there is very lit
tie tuberculosis in the native herds of
Georgia and even so, that the milk
does not carry the faint except through
germs that enter from without during
or after the milking due to careless
methods of those who handle it.
The tubercular cows breath and
sputum as in the case of the human
ailment is dangerous point of infec-
ton so that the milk man is in great
er danger than those who drink the
milk. However the purpose is to eli
inmate every one of these dangers as
speedily and effectively as possible.

her trip to Gray, Ga, where she was
invited to big library rally of the
Jones County Federation of Club
Women for the purpose of presenting
Fitzgerald's plan of work, especially
that feature of distributing books thru
rural schools. We know that Miss

from them it is full of enthusiasm.
Mrs. J. E. Hayes, president of the
State F. of W. c., was also present
and spoke. The meeting was held
in the high school building at Gray
and every club in the county had a
large delegation present There mad
been considerable preparatory work
accomplished bl each and they came
together to show results.
These were the donation of a lot in
Gray by club woman. the donation
of all the lumber by Jones County
Lumber Co., one half of the brick from
Massee Brick Co., of Macon, all the
cement from another firm, all the
nails from another and free plans for
the library from a Macon Architect,
500 gift from one club woman, SIS

from county schools, for books, and
$40 per month from the county school

They are going to purchase books at

MISS PERRY DOING
GOOD WORK HERE

Miss Matte Perry is doing quite a
wonderful evangelistic work in the
city at different churches and the earn
est Christian workers of the several
denominations are getting great in
spiration from her leadership while a
few conversions and cases of healing
have been reported from even the
small afternoon services. Miss Perry
began with an afternoon and night
service at the Central Methodist church
on Sunday and also the Missionary
meeting there on Monday. She had
afternoon services at Mrs. Premises
and at Mrs. Seanor's but here the
attendance became SO large they adj
journed to the Baptist Church and
held several meetings there. Now
they will be held at the Central M. E.
Church until further notice.
Miss Perry was for fourteen years
at the head of an orphanage in South
Carolina supported on free will offer
ings. This institution is now Bible
school and Miss Perry goes as she
feels herself divinely called to evan
gelistic work. She has worked with
the Bosworth Brothers whom we know
as Fred and Bert in years gone by
and who are in Miami at present en-
gagged in the same work.
Because the work is new in Fitger-
aid every one is not interested, but
all are urged to come out to the meet
ings and see for themselves that the
Lord will save and heal if people ex-
ercise faith.
