made. The athletic committee re- ported a plan for a foremen's gym class in the Y. NJ. c. A., and also much interest shown in Walter Camps Daily Dozen exercises. It was report ed that the Y. M. c.

 That the misunderstanding concerns in the city are interested in the moral welfare of the men in factories was shown by the report of the re- ligious committee.

 | The committee report says, We all know Davis is a live wire. The re- ligion he gives us Is the happy kind with a smile in 1t and the men en- joy it. If you come to the next meet ing, come to supper, but come early ol you won't get seat"

 Making Ends Lap Over" was the topic of the address given by Mir. Speer. If man Is only making ends meet, he is not getting anywhere" he said. ITO be success he's got to make the ends lap over.'
 Speaking of the family budget, the speaker said most families start q budget without knowing just what the budget is for. You start out by say ing, so much for the butcher, so much for the baker so much for the landlord, etc, and when you get through you put what's left in the bank Your budget lasts anywhere from two weeks to six months because you started at the wrong end.
 Rough On the Budget
 By the time the first six months are u1 you find you have run ovar yocr clothing allowance by $16.75, you owe a bill to the butcher and you lost track of those two weeks last March when your wife was sick, because you forgot to put 1t down. Your budget looks as though 1t had gone through the trenches, it is all shot to pieces.
 I want to tell you one little secret. Start at the other end. Whatever happens set aside your savings first, say, so much money for insurance or the savings bank first, and then so much money for the butcher, the baker, etc. If you set your mind on this you will find very soon that your other bills are taking care of them selves. In fact you have accomplished your object by setting aside your say ings first and now you'll find you don't care what becomes of the budget anyhow.
 Up to the Man.
 Unless a man has the power to save money he Is doomed to failure. Mere ability Is of no account If 1t only puts you in class headed for failure
 The man who says he cannot save money can be proven wrong. Even If 1t takes every cent he gets to live

Me SmaN Boy WdrnsHsMofher

Many worthy woman has cast gloom over a small boy by warning him against green apples, wet feet, etc On behalf of the boy. we beg to call the woman's attention to the fol- lowing:
 High heels menace not only tho health of the women who wear them, but also the health and chances of the children these women may bring into the world."-Dr. R. Hendrick Smith, of Boston. ITO overcome the forward thrust which high heels give, the body is forced to subject itself to unnatural strains. Such posture brings about decreased respiration, a llessened richness of the blood and a less lively circulation. All the pelvic organs become congested through being thrown out of balance and pressed upon by the abdominal or gans."
 Working women are the worst off, lenders" adds Dr. Evangeline w. Young, one of Boston's best known women physicians. Tt Is the girls who are on their feet most who persist in wearing the highest heels Sensible women have learned that they can in- crease their efficiency and even earn bigger salaries by wearing shoes built for solid comfort and health"
 And if some day your children Cor your neighbours children) are particu- larly annoying, let this woman writer in the New York Sun lead you to hap piness-the happiness that comes from wearing sensible shoes like Cantiever Shoes.
 "Sometimes the housewife's head aches are due to her shoes. There is nothing so irritating to the nerves as standing in tight or wrongly built shoes. Her cure will come by dis carding the high heels and tight shoes for comfortable shoes during working hours"
 By wearing Cantilever Shoes you will be In such good humor all day that even your neighbours children will not annoy you. Let us explain in detail the delightful qualities of these good looking shoes. Just ask for "Cantilever Comfort" For men, women and children. SLOAN BROS. 1S5 Main Street

Hardwick will Thursday finish sign
ing UP all the bills passed by the gen
eral assembly: Clerks in both nous
and senate have been busy at worf
since the adjournment week, ago
tonight completing engrossing all
bills passed. The governor has used
his veto power on several of the
measures which have passed, the
main bill being the bill to give pen

his political friends not 10 veto the
bill but he was firm in his determine
tion to veto every appropriation

ALL NIGHT SESSION
OF STRIKE MEDIATORS.

NEW YORK, August 24-(By the
Associated Press.) Members OF the
big five brotherhood group Of the
rail strike mediators met Thursday
at an uptown hotel, then left hrre
riedly for a secret conference ati5
an undisclosed place with representa-
tives of a small group Of rail fexecu-
tives who yesterday were ready to
take up further negotiations as in
dividual roads. \siV4g
The big five had been in confer
ence with the executives until mid
night, then they returned to head
quarters where they remained until
l :55 this morning closeted with b.
M. Jewel, the strike leader. What
developed at this session was not
disclosed.
Yesterdays proceedings in the
strike camps may briefly be outlined
as follows:
1.-The association met as a whole
this morning, almost unanimously
decided to stand against restoring
the strikers with their ranking un-
affected and directed its committee
which met last week with the broth
erhood chiefs to draw up resolution
embodying this decision.
2-The committee submitted the
resolution after the noon recess and
after it's adoption left for the Grand
Central Station and transmitted the
message to the committee represent
ing the running trades, who have
stepped into the shoes of mediators.
These mediators, before going into
conference, issued statement as
serting that the strike must be set
tied because the public demanded it,
And setting forth that the "cfews
who now operate the trains form
that part Of the public which knows
best why settlement must come.
3-The brotherhoods then advanc-
ed another proposal, i. e., that the
strikers be "reinstated in the posi-
tions of the class they originally
held on June 80" that all be restor-
ed not later than October /, and
that disputes which might arise over
seniority right be referred to the
Railroad Labor Board. Later it was
suggested that settlements by indi-
ViduaI roads be made on this basis.
4-The committees representing
executives and the big five, departing
by back stairway to elude news
papermen, then repaired to the Yale
club and brotherhoods chiefs address,
ed the whole membership of the asso-
ciation.

AFFLES ROBS THREE MORE HOUSES
WATSON SILENCE
BROKEN WHEN HE
HITS HARDWICK
Fails To Mention Walker In His
Letter-Hardwick Attacks
Walker Platform

ATLANTA, August 24.-As has
been expected all along, Thomas f.
Watson has broken out in the guber-
material race. People who knew him
well have predicted all along that he
couldn't stand it without having some
thing to say. While he does not de
clare for Walker, he does score Gov
ernor Hardwick, claiming that he
broke every promise he made to him.
The reason for the Watson out
break is a result Of a telegram sent
to Watson by Major Charles Nc
Gregor, of Warren county, who re-
lated in the message that he had
made a speech in behalf of Walker at
Buford last Saturday and inquiring
in the message if Hardwick had re-
manned true to the promises made 10
Watson. The senator replied that
Watson had broken every promise
made him.
This is taken to mean as a stao
at the governor and an indication to
the Watson followers that Watson
wants them to vote against Hardwick.
The Hardwick people are not sur
prised, and as long as the issue is
made, they will fight it to finish.
The Hardwick forces are very conh
dent of sweeping the state, regardless
of the Watson. opposition, while the
Walker people claim that since Wat
SON has declared himself in their fa-
vor it means Walkers election.
Walker Pussy footing
Governor Hardwicll is charging in
his speeches that Walker is telling
Watson men that he is Watson's can
didate and that he is telling anti
Watson men that Watson jumped on
his band wagon and he can't help it
because Watson is supporting him,
though he would prefer that Watson
wouldn't support him.
Walker is working the pussy foot
campaign, while Governor Hardwick
is out on the ehustings. He spoke at
Washington in Wilkes county yester.
day to big crowd, and tomorrow he
goes into the mountains for several
addresses, speaking tomorrow at
Clayton, Rabun county, in the morn
ing and Hiwassee, Towns county in
the afternoon. On Saturday he will
speak at Blairsville in Union county
and in the afternoon at Young Harris
in Towns county. The governor has
speaking engagements every week
day until the primary on September
18th.
Headquarters of both candidates
are busy places and the state is being
flooded with campaign literature Of
all kinds. In addition to speaking
himself, next week some twenty-five
speakers will take the stump for the
governor in the different sections of
Georgia.
