held June 3 in the Hotel Piedmont.
DIR. ]. W. Elliott, of Atlanta, will de-
liver the address of welcome.
DR.. H. H. Trimble, of Moultrie,
will read a paper upon public educa-
ton, in which he will make the first
public announcement of the fact that
the old school had instigated an off
cial investigation into the claims of
osteopathy, and that osteopathic re-
search work is now being conducted
by osteopathic physicians in the Peter
Bent Brigham Hospital in Boston,
one of the largest allopathic hospi-
tails in the world This is being done
under the auspices of the Massachu-
sets Medical society, Harvard Medi-
cal school. DR.. Trimble will also re-
port that state boards of registration
in osteopathy have now been estab-
/ lished in twenty-five states, and that
in other states osteopathic physicians
are licensed by the state boards of
| registration in medicine.
Osteopathic surgery of the eye, ear,
nose and throat, by means of which
treatment is administered with the
| finger instead of surgical instruments,
will be demonstrated by DIR. Stella

plain how catarrhal deafness may be
helped by this method, and how hay
fever and impaired vision are also
materially benefited.

| Atlanta, who will demonstrate the
ieffect upon the function of internal

-ATLANTA, May 10-Governor
Hardwick announced Monday that he
is a candidate to succeed himself in
the Democratic primary, September
I3. He stated that he will present
the issues of the state government,
as he sees them, in his message to
the legislature.
1T was generally understood that
the governor would be a candidate
for reelection but his statement Mon
day was the first formal announce
lnent to this effect. 1t followed the
announcement of Clifford Walker, of
Monroe, Sunday, that he had entered
the gubernatorial race.
Governor Hardwick declared that
he was not moved to seek reelection
by political ambition to serve sec
ond term, but by desire to complete,
if possible, his efforts to place the
finances of the state on a sound foot
ing.
These efforts last year, he pointed
dnt, were devoted primarily to pay
ment Of the states current deficit,
which was managed by discounting
the Western & Atlantic rental for five
years; whereas his efforts in the flu
ture will be devoted to revising the
etate's tax system in a manner which
will equalize the tax burden and pro-
vide adequate revenue for the gov
eminent.

NCRTHCLTFFE EDITORS TO

-LONDON, May 29.-Lord North
cliffe has announced that hereafter
tie editors of the Evening News
which includes the members Of the
staff who would be termed copy
readers" on an American newspa-
per, will work only four days a week
instead of five as heretofore.

cliffs when making the announce
ment, ''the pace in evening newspa-
per production has been intensified
and is going to increase still fur
Their. Wireless telephony is begin?
ming and is going to affect the publ
cation of news"
The occasion was the retirement of
w. H. Evans, the editor-in-chief of
the Evening News, who has been for
% years on one of another of Lord
Northcliffe's papers. Lord North
cnife gave him a banquet, presented
him with a check for $4,000 and
awarded him a pension of $12,500 a
year for the next 10 years and after
wards, for the remai1 der of his life,
Q pension. of $4,000 4 year.
According to the testimony of
newspaper men who have worked on
both New York and London after
noon newspapers, the work on the
latter is much the easier. The New
York afternoon papers use on an
Average thrice as much news as do
their London contemporaries and do
