TO INSPECT RIVERSIDE
MILITARY ACADEMY

Gainesville Ga, April 9-Colonel
Sandy Beaver, president of Riverside
Military Academy, was notified today
by Adjutant General Davis of the
United States Army that Board of
Officers from the U. S. War Depart
ment at Washington would arrive in
Gainesville April II for the purpose
of inspecting Riverside Academy to
determine the Honor School desig-

1t is an act of Congress that the
ten military schools in the United
States which are found to be doing
the best work shall be termed Honor
Schools for that year. In 1928 River

ed in the South between Virginia and

Riverside Academy is now the only
school in this section which has the
right to certify its honor graduates
into the U. S. Military Academy with
out the necessity of a Senatorial or
Congressional appointment.
AS a result ofthe preliminary in
spections held in aJnuary and Feb

this section of country have been
eliminated from consideration. That
is to say that Riverside is the only

high honor.
1t is source of pride to the people

GEORGE EDWARD KINNEY

The many friends of Mr.. and Mrs.
G. E. Kenney and those of Mrs. Ray
Frey, their only daughter, were sadN
dened by the report of Mr.. Kenney's
death, which occurred without warn
ing as he seated himself at the break
fast table ON Tuesday morning. His
health had been feeble for the past
two months, but no apprehensions ov-
er immediate fatal result had been felt
by the family.
He expressed the wish on Monday
to go to MS daughters home, which
was tenderly carried out, and there is
no idea that the removal fastened the
end, but rather may be considered a
fortunate circumstance, that Mrs Ken
ney was not alone in that sad hour.
Mr.. eKnney was born near Toronto,
Canada, in 1843, and came across the
border in early manhood His marrl-
age took place in Michigan in Novem-
Der, 1875, and of this union two daugh-
tiers were born. The family came to
this colony among the early arrivals
of 1896. The death of Ethel Georgia
occurred in 1900, and Miss Rosetta
some years later became the wife OF
! Mr.. Ray Frey, who with their three
and the bereaved mother are the sur
viving family.
| For many years Mr.. Kenney kept a
small grocery store on East Magnolia
street, residing in the same vicinity.
Mr.. Kenney was member OF the
First M. E. church and consistent
Christian gentleman. His charactels-
tics we're gentleness and modesty,
which made him to be not so widely
known, but dearly loved by those who
came in close acquaintanceship.
| The funeral services were held on
Wednesday afternoon at the home OF
Mr. and Mrs. Frey, conducted by Rev.
]. H. Elder, and with music by choir
composed of Messrs Burr Stokoe, Al
bert Hathias, Mrs. H. A. Owens, Mrs.
M. E. Whitman ana Mrs. Myrtle
Beauchamp.
The pail bearers were Messrs. F. R.
Justice, F. G. Hitch, Clarence Miller,
M. E. Whitman, C. A. Newcomer and
: w. c. Wilkerson.

GENERAL MARKET
CONDITIONS OF U. S.

March trading abroad was not up
on a satisfactory basis. Considerable
volume was recorded, but much of
this was in consignment, which only
adds to the present accumulation in
foreign centers. Foreign exchange
was a material factor in lessening the
trade, but there is an optimistic hope
that the report of the Dawes Commits
sion will materially strengthen and
steady all foreign moneys.
Domestic industrial conditions dis
played no adverse tendencies that no.
ticeably affected meat consumption.
The advent of the Lenten Season has
caused lessened demand, particularly
in industrial centers, where foreign la
Dor is employed, and in the larger CT
ties.
Figures recently released by the U.
S. Department of Agriculture show
that 1923 meat consumption was the
highest since 1908. Should this rate
continue during 1924, with what is con
ceded to be reduced production, pro-
ducers who stay in the game will sure
ly prosper.
Atlanta Market Conditions
Cattle and Beef-A perceptible i'm
provement in cattle prices was reg
lstered in the local market during the
month of March. One load of unus-
ually good fed steers reached $3.50
while three loads of inferior fed stuff
changed hands at $7.55. The constant
demand for trimmer cattle continued
through the month. Buyers for outside
packers were strong bidders at times,
and the local market registered strong
er than competing markets.
March receipts at Atlanta showed
fewer cattle than in 1923 and reflected
the growing scarcity of cattle in this
section.
Hogs and Pork
Current local receipts as we'll &C
receipts at other markets, confirm
the belief that hog producers are 1io-
quldating at an alarming rate. Volume
hog production is now to be found
only in the Central states corn belt.
Chicago runs continue heavy, but a
slackening is already noticeable. Fv-
cry other section operates on lower
production basis.
Lard prices at all points continued
to reflect the bad conditions preva-
lent in vegetable oils trading. Unsat-
isfactory conditions in the foreign
markets also contributed to unfavora-
Bile conditions in the market.
Government reports show an in
crease in corn acreage and this may
restore interest in hog production,
which has always been the best corn
marketing agency.

All too often women accept eheir

'' THE MAINE BAROMETER.

Republican organs which turn the auadrenniai eye toward Maine so as to obtain a forecast" of how the national election Is to result. are do- Ing the same this year. AS it Is usually A safe prophecy to say Maine is to so Republican. the same delicate morseI is being rolled between the tongue this year.
 But there Is a difference this year Maine held a direct primary last June and the chief issue in the Re- publican ranks hinged around the Ku Klux Klan. The official returns gave Frank G. Harrington, president of the state senate and anti-Klan can didate, a majority of 32o.
 But this majority was contested by Ralph o. Brewster, state senator and supported by the Klan. Fraud in Ward 4 of Portland was claimed. and a long and bitter political argument ensued, finally resulting in recount which gave the nomination to Brew ster by 5s1 votes Gov. Baxter, an- nouncing the fraud had been deh- nitely established, declared Brewster nominated.
 Now the Republicans of Maine who voted against Brewster because he was credited with being the klan andidate-although he claims he did not solicit Klan support--are expected to vote for him to become the hiah governor. Will enough of them do 1t 10 elect him? And if he is elected, will he gain anything like the sweep ing Republican majority that the Re- publican candidate could get without the Klan plague to upset politics? Will many of those Republicans who voted for Harrington be willing to vote for the Democratic candidate, and if so, will there be sufficient of them to elect?
 Whatever the returns from Maine will show the chances are that the Republican vote throughout New England cannot be gauged there this year. If anything, fewer are likely to vote the Republican ticket in the election than there are who will vote for Cool idge.
