GEORGIA WOMEN ARE
BEHIND AGGIE COLLEGE
VIII Fight For Funds To Keen

cf Agriculture, Mrs Ira W. Farmn"
of the Georgia Federation of We
mems Clubs, declared in an address
before the agricultural conference
lsre yesterday. In rcsponsc to this
de laration, DR.. A. NJ. Soulc, prcsi-
dent of the institution, said; you
vail certainly have to sit up to those
people down in Atlanta. or it will be
the same old story. The folks Of
Georgia have got to get behind Us or
sec this institution shrink and
shrivei'
He went on to say what we want
Is sufficient money to take care
tie staff of our college. Our income
Is absolutely ridiculous, only $4,000
a;year for that purpose when it takes
$4,000 annually to meet that need
and its absurd Of the people Of Geor-
gia to say that they haven't sufficient
money to support the Georgia Agri-
cultural College" In this connection
it is recalled that in an address he
delivered here this week Commits
stoner J. j. Brown, Of the department
Of agriculture, pledged to DR.. Soulc
his best efforts in getting the LegisIa-
ture to appropriate greater funds to
tic Athens institution.
Mrs. Farmers address was the prin-
cipal message of the day. She said in
Eart: "a home demon tration agent

United States. Men think that WON

Is needed to be done in the home, bat
this Is not true. The woman needs
education for her job, just as the
man, ard home making is a job just
as important as job as the mans.
Ninety per ceent Of the girls who
reach maturity have some time or
other in their lives the important duty
of making home If this is true, and
it is, then ] think they should be

production, Fury" in which Dor

classic Of the sea.
Fury will be shown at the Pal

Unlike the way most pictures of
the sea are made, Mr.. Barthelmess
and his supporting company lived
for three weeks on an old schooner
minus all comforts and convenienees
undergoing the same experiences as
fall to the men who still sail the
seven seas in windjammets.
''In spite of the nardships it was
the most fascinating journey I have
ever TAKEN Mr.. Bnrthelmess says
"The mathematics of navigation be
came clear to me. ] learned to read
the compass and steer by it. The
stories some of the old salts would
tell of their experiences were ro-
nance carried to the Nth degree.
Its a lonesome life, though, in
spite of the fact that you are never
alone. There is no privacy. But to
be cut off from the world for three
weeks, without any communication,
not even a wireless, makes you re-
alize isolation. as nothing else will.

which. I was given very strong
medicines, and / believe it was this
rigorous treatment that left ME
with bad stomach. At any rate,
my stomach kept troubling me more
and more and finally got so bad
that nearly everything I ate hurt
me. Sometimes the gas pains were
simply awful and l would just
ache all over. Why, I was much
afraid s everal times in later years
that my day had come and before
getting Tanlac was bedfast for a
month.
~ had been rading the Tanlae
testimonials and people seemed so
sincere in their praise of the medi-
cine that l decided to see if ii
would help me. Well, after taking
the medicine for just week, I
noticed quite n marked improve
ment in my condition, so kept OIL
taking it and getting better until
