In addition to this, in the spring
Of 1925 he executive committee of
the Association employed the firm
Of Peat, Warwick, Mltcnem q Com
pany to make a thorough and ex-
naustive audit of the Associations
affairs. This is one of the most
celebrated auditing concerns in the
country. A copy of their report is
in my possession and states that ev-
cry penny of the Associations funds
was properly accounted for.
uniformed persons have also
made the charge that the Board of
Directors, the executive committee
and the officers have conducted the
affairs of the Association in an eX
travagant manner. Merwick, Mitch
ell & Co., were especially instructed
to make careful investigation and
If they found any extravaganza to
report it. They reported that they
found none whatever.
Some have had the idea that the
Daughters of the Confederacy un-
dertook in the beginning, to con-
struct this great monument to South
ern valor, but such is not the case.
Efforts were made upon several &C.
casions to get the organization to
! undertake the movement, but each
time it was declined, not for any
lack of patriotic zeal or interest, but
because they were reluctant to as
sumo the great responsibility and
expense.
| The report of the retiring presi-
dent, embodying some of the above
answered charges, was endorsed at
the recent state convention, although
it did not represent the majority
sentiment of the Georgia U. D. c..
Through their peculiar manner of
voting, the Atlanta and Macon chap
tiers have several times the voting
strength of the smaller chapters and
for this reason they were able to
dominate the convention, although
there were strong protests from 10y
, al delegates from various sections OF
/ the state.
/ Following this action the decision
was made to mail copies of the re-
firing presidents antagonistic report
to the U. D. c., chapters in other
states of the South. Protests against
this plan of deliberately going out
of the state to place obstacles in he
path of the Memorial movement are
coming in from every quarter of the
commonwealth, and it is earnestly
hoped that it may be avoided.
/ The Fulton U. D. c. chapter, Of
Atlanta, the Henry D. Mechanic
chapter, of Monroe, and the Laur;
Rutherford chapter, of Athens, hav'
met and passed resolutions dissent
ing from the action taken at San
dersville and expressing complet
faith in the Association officials
Other chapters in the state are ex
pected to take similar action.

TREAT FEM ROUGH"

One of our English cousins com blaming that the young men of today are being dominated by the suppos- edly weaker sex, is broadcasting an appeal for the regaining of trousered supremacy, and suggests that the best way to accomplish this is for our youthful striplings to grow whiskers- if they are already not too effeminite for this strictly male accomplishment.
 While it is undoubtedly true that domination by the female sex is on the increase, we do not believe that it is because the young men of today are becoming feminized. Rather is it that the young women are becoming more masculine, in looks, actions and accomplishments. But-glory be to Dame Nature. e.-there is one thing the girls cannot do. They can't grow whiskers And in this strictly mas culine attribute we men may yet find our way out of the bondage into which we have unwittingly permitted our selves to be led.
 Young man, grow whiskers! Not the soft, silky kind effected by some of our movie shieks, but the wiTy, brist- ling, corkscrew kind that make a typ ical Russian Bolshevik look as if he ate a keg of ten-penny nails for his breakfast. Never mind about keep ing them neatly trimmed! Let 'em run wild! Cultivate an air of ferocity with all the hirsute trimmings, and don't forget to growl ever and anon at the smooth-cheeked upstarts who have taken to bossing us
 Treat 'em rough, we say, and begin by growing underbrush and rasps on your chin. Hooray for whiskers .- Exchange.

 Mir. Helm believes that prize could be given to the youngster showing the most rapid growth in trees allotted to his care, and that this would relieve the council of the necessity of nam ing park commissioner or other of- ficial.
 The idea is good one, and it cer- tainly would add to the attractiveness of our town without cost to the city.

LOOK OUT FOR THE YoUNGsTER.

Have you ever stopped to consider that the carefree, irresponsible young. ster of today will be grown up during the next decade and stepping into our shoes in municipal and territorial af. fairs? Have you ever given the mat ter of their sports and studies any consideration, or do you think the youngsters should rock along seeking their own amusements, and raised by the hit or miss plan?
 Unless some place is provided for the youngsters to spend the long win ter months they are apt to become more or less disgusted with local con- ditions and go where they can find recreation with their work. The best authorities on children today point out that certain amount of recreation must be mixed with their studies if they are to be sturdy in body and in mind.
 One of the best investments the town could make would be large community hall, where both young and old could mingle together in winter, thus offsetting any tendency to grow morose and flabby from too much confinement.

MARITAL UNHAPPlNESS.

Rev. J. W. Graves, of Clarksburg, w. Va, breaks into print in disser- tation on the divorce evil, and winds up with much well-meaning advice to the unluckily married man or woman. While we believe that divorces are too common, we would like to see law passed allowing the unhappily mated secure a divorce as easily as they were married. A simple appearance before a magistrate, with the written agreement of both to live apart, should be all that is necessary to sever the tie that blisters as we'll as binds.
 Divorce many times is the only re lief of mismated couples. There is no more reason why people should live together if they are unsuited temper mentally than there is that any other partnership should be perpetual.
 We will assume that the Reverend adviser is one of the happily mar ried; that he knows how to make living, and that his wife is a good cook. If this requisite of a happy married life he is governed by his head and his stomach, and not by any affection for his life partner, who may be weary of the marriage ties, and yet too polite to hurt the feelings of so exemplary a citizen.
 Marriage may be a sacrament, but these are the happy marriages, where a couple goes down life's pathway to- gether, the bond of life being con- stantly strengthened by personal sac rifiice. But what of the unhappy,

INDUSTRIAL AND
LABOR

Only one great strike marred the
years record in the United States.
The anthracite miners had been de-
handing an increase in wages and the
adoption of the check-off system by
the operators, and after long and fu-
tile negotiations the men were called
out of the mines on September 1. Be
cause the stock of coal was large and
owing to the use of oil and other sub
stitutes, the consumer did not suffer
greatly, but the effects of the strike
on the miners and operators and the
business men of the mining towns
were serious. President Coolidge re-
fused to interfere but asked congress
to give the Chief Executive and the
secretaries of commerce and labor the
authority to Intervene in such crises.
The American Federation OF Labor
held its annual meeting in Atlantic
City in October, turned down all propo-
sitions for cooperation with the Rus
sian trade unions and recognition Of
the Soviet government, and reelected
President Green and all other officers.
There were strikes of textile work
ers In the East, Of garment workers in
New York and elsewhere, and of the
plasterers because of a jurisdictional
dispute with the bricklayers. The coal
miners of Nova Scotia were on strike
for several months.
The Supreme Court of the United
States on April 13 held unconstitu-
tional that part of the Kansas indus
trial court act providing for com
pulsory arbitration of labor disputes.
In October it ruled against the Arizona
minimum wage law for women. A spe-
cial federal court of equity exonerated
the International Harvester company
of trust charges, and Secretary Of Ag-
riculture Jardine dismissed the federal
charges against the merger Of the Ar
mour and Morris packing concerns. vio-
lent fluctuations of prices on the Chi
cago Board of Trade aroused the ire of
farmers and of Secretary Jardine, and
at his insistence the board in October
adopted stringent rules to prevent
price manipulation.
