fellow who Ia full Of determination and
will stand no nonsense rising to re-
mark that he doesn't care what hap
pened to Samuel Mariowe and that
what he wants to know is, how Mrs.
Hignett made out on her lecturing
tour. Did she go big In Buffalo? Did
she have 'em tearing up the seats in
Schenectady? Was she riot in Chi
cago and cyclone in st. Louisl Those
are the points on which he desires in
formation, or give him his money back.
I cannot supply the information.
And, before you condemn me, let me
hastily add that the fault is not mine
but that of Mrs. Hignett herself. The
fact is, she never went to Buffalo.
Schenectady saw nothing of her. She
did not get within thousand miles Of
Chicago nor did she penetrate to st.
Louis. For the very morning after her
son Eustace sailed for England In the
liner Atlantic, she happened to read
In the paper one Of those abridged
passenger lists which the journals Of
New York are In the habit Of print

saw that, among those whose society
Eustace would enjoy during the voy-
age was Miss Wilhelmina Bennett,

Episode One.

GPfWUUS VIISs
IF there is one thing more than an
other which weighs upon the mind Of q
story-teller as he chronicles the events
which he has set out to describe, it Is
the thought that the reader may be
growing impatient with him for stray
ing from the main channel Of his tale
and devoting himself to what are after
all minor developments. The story. for
instance, opened with Mrs. Horace
Hignett, the world-famous writer on
Theosophy, going over to America to
begin lecture tour; and no one
realizes more keenly than / do that !

DEBT STATEMENT
NOT CONTROVERSIAL.
WHITE HOUSE SAYS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-An in
clination in some quarters to make
a diplomatic incident out of White
House comment Tuesday on Ambas-
sador Jusserand's recent public adj
dress on the French debt led to a
White House statement Wednesday
disclaiming any intention of initiat-
ing a controversy.
The formal statement was issued
after a conference between Presi-
dent Coolidge and Secretary Hughes
and had reference to an authorized
version of the presidents views
given out informally Tuesday at the
White House, According to that
version, Mr.. Coolidge saw no reason
why the American government
should take notice of Ambassador
Jesserand's public statement that
France desired a moratorium, and
felt that the ambassador had chosen
to make his suggestion in a speech
addressed to the American public
despite the fact that the American
debt commission is the proper agen-
cy to deal with such questions.
Wednesday S statement was as fol
lows:
1T was said at the White House
today that it was we'll understood
that Ambassador Jusserand had
made known his views to Secretary
Mellon as to the French debt some
time ago and that this was commu-
nicated to the commission.
Nothing to the contrary has been
given out at the White House. The
comment of yesterday was simply a
refusal to discuss in any way a re-
cent address of Ambassador Jusse-
rand "

TEMPT RANCE HEAD
URGES ATTENDANCE
At WALKER SESSION

All members of the Womens
Christian Temperance union nave
been urged to attend the law en-
forcement conference to be held N
Atlanta on January Is, upon the
coll of Governor Walker.
The governor has received copy
of the following communication by
Mrs. Mary Harris Armor, president
Of the Georgia w. C. T. u, which
will appear in the forthcoming issue
of the Georgia w. C. T. U. Bulletin:
when I read the governors ring
ing call for a law and order meet
ing in Atlanta January Is, at the
state capitol, my heart leaped for
joy, and there sprang to my mind
these words:
"Froedom calls you; quick, be
ready! Rouse you in the name Oh
God.
1.-THE governor invites not only
the law enforcement officials Of the
state, but all the social welfare or.
CARNATIONS, and other citizens in
terested in the welfare of the state.
"NoW is the time for every White
Ribboner to prove her loyalty to law
and order, by doing all in her power
to make this meeting a success. Be
there, if possible, even though you
have to make a great sacrifice to
go. Use every means in your power
to persuade others to go. At your
January l meeting for law enforce
ment, bring this up and try to en-
thuse the people on the subject OF
attending. 1t is a glorious beginning
for the new year, and may mean
much for out state and nation.
Your state officers will all be
there to greet you, and we are count
! ing on You to come, with such faith
and courage and enthusiasm, and in
| such numbers, as to put the fear of
God into the heart of every law
| breaker in this dear old state. Let's
help to make it the biggest rneeting
ever held in Atlanta. The attend
ance will prove to the governor how
much the people are really concerned
| in good government, and it will
| prove the same to the lawless ele-
| ment,'
