carries his audience with him, and
there is constant applause, even in
reserved Boston. This will be a won.
derful opportunity for this section OF
the country, and 1t is expected that a
large number will come from the
nearby towns.
This meeting will have the open
forum feature in that opportunity
will be given at, the close of the lee
ture, for questions to be asked by
anyone. DIR. Wilson speaks very
plainly, stating the facts just as they
are regardless of whom they may con-
Germ. He makes you think, and will
answer any questions that may be
asked.

Stranger, Minus
Clothes, Found in
Triton Home
DISCOVERED WRAPPED IN RUG;
APPEARANCE PUZZLES THE
AUTHORITIES AND RESIDENT.

Triton. Ga. Feb. 17.-"Where are
nv pants" became moOted question
in Triton Monday morning, when a
prominent merchant walked into his
dining room and found man asleep,
wrapped up in rug. When the rug
was removed the stranger was found
to be clad only in his shirt and "un-
mentionables. He stated his name
was John L. Sullivan, and seemed to
think he was in Jacksonville or To-
ledo. He did not know where his
trousers were, nor his coat, vest,
shoes and hat. After he was supplied
with trousers "Mr. Sullivan" started
out after his other clothes, calling at
several nearby Homes foFther1.g Fin
ally he was turned over to the police,
who later discovered the wanted
trousers hanging in tree in a near
by yard, with the shoes underneath.
In the pants was found half of a
$40 bill and a bank deposit book
showing credit of $500 in the name
Of Fred Fleig in Toledo bank. In
talking with a Triton man Sunday
afternoon the man displayed an iden-
LITIGATION card, and when this was not
found in the pants the search was
continued for the other apparel,
which was found Tuesday morning
several blocks from the home which
he had visited Monday morning. The
coat contained a membership card in
the bricklayers, plasterers and masons
international union, but no address
was given of relatives The bank
book showed Withdrawals of several
hundred dollars in January and early
in February, and his union. dues were
paid on February 4. He had in his
pockets ticket from Jacksonville to
Toledo, also a baggage check. Off
GERS here are of the opinion that the
man was drugged and robbed in Jack:
sonville, and his memory has suffered
lapse as a result. Efforts are now
being made to get in touch with his
relatives through the Union and Saw
ings Bank in Toledo. -

Cotton Acreage May
Show Drastic Cut
ANOTHER BUMPER CROP WOULD
MEAN CALAMITY TO COTTON
INDUSTRY; FOOD CROPS ARE
NEEDED.

Atlanta, Ga.-The problem of cot
ton acreage is engaging the serious
attention of agricultural leaders of
the South as it has not engaged them
for many years, it was pointed out
here today by officials Of the Georgia
Department of Agriculture. Steps
have already been taken in many sec
lions, it was stated, to bring about a
reduced acreage for this year.
Officials of the state department
of agriculture and other agric ultural
leaders Of the state, state emphatlcal-
ly that another bumper crop of cotton
next year would be calamity to the
cotton industry. They have stressed
the fact that sixteen-million bale
crop is worth les to the farmer than q
ten-million bale production, because
the larger crop would so put the price
of the staple down that the farmer
would be the loser.
Agricultural leaders here take the
position that only reduced acreage
can save the cotton growers from loss
this year, and a reduced acreage can
only be brought about by cotton
growers joining in the movement to
reduce 1t.
eff a few scattered growers cut
their acreage and the great bulk of
growers go ahead and add to the al
ready large cotton acreage, those who
reduce acreage will not be helped and
the growers who increase their acre
age will pay the penalty in greatly
reduced price," said an official of the
Georgia Department of Agriculture.
It will be recalled that the recent
Memphis Convention elected Clarence
Owsley, of Texas, director general of
a movement to try to bring about a
drastic reduction in cotton acreage
and an increased acreage in food and
forage crops. Officials Of the Geor-
gia Department of Agriculture said
today that the movement should be
given full support.

WILLIAM. r. BOWEN, PROMINENT CITl-
ZEN, REPORTED IMPROVING FROM ILLNESS
HIS LIFE DESPAIRED OF Fer
THREE DAYS, TAKES ON NEW
VIGOR AND HAS EVERY
CHANCE OF RECOVERY.

For the past three days the entire
community was anxiously awaiting
reports from the sick-bed of our high
ly esteemed fellow citizen, w. R.
Bowen, whose decling health had been
source of sincere regret at every
fireside of city and county, where his
condition was known and had become
the topic of constant inquiry. Mon
Iday,traffic was suspended in front Of
his residence at the Empire Hotel, the
noise of automobiles being disturb
ing element to the rest of the patient
Three physicians, including special
list, DR.. d. Brawner, of Atlanta, were
( in attendance Tuesday and their re-
ports were very disheartening to the
host Of anxious friends who gath
cred on the sidewalk to keep in touch
with the patients condition. Despite
the discouraging reports from the
physicians who held out no hope for
his life, the patient survived the night
and Wednesday showed marked inn
provement ard also this morning with
every indication that he will be saved
to the community, which could i'll
spare him.
Mr.. Bowen holds many important
positions in business and civic and
religious organizations, in which
places it would be difficult to find a
suitable successor. Besides being
president of the Empire Mercantile
Co., The Exchange National Bank,
Planters Warehouse and Loan Co.,
the Bowen Telephone Co., operating
in Fitzgerald, Ocilla, Allapaha, Alma,
Abbeville, Rochelle and Rebecca, he
is president of the Independent Tele-
phone Companies of Georgia, presi-
dent of the Central Dixie Highway
Association, the jefferson Davis
Highway Association, Superintendent
of the Central NJ. E. Sunday School
and director and officer in sundry
civic and industrial organizations.
Membership Drive Suspended
Out of respect to MIR. Bowen, all
activities of the Chamber of Com
merce, its membership drive and mass
convention scheduled for Thursday
night, were suspended by the direc-
tors of the Chamber, all of whom,
along with the entire community are,
deeply concerned in the recovery of
his health and the continuance of his
valuable council and cooperation in
the civic and social affairs of the city,

POSTOFFICE NEAR QUIT.
MAN ROBBED

Quitman, Ca. Feb. IA postof-
flee inspector rived in Moorven-
town, north of Quitman this after
noon and is investigating the robbery
of the postoffice there this morning
about 2 700 O'Clock.
Between $500 and $500 in cash
and stamps are missing and so far
there is no trace of the robber. The
robbery was discovered this morn
ing when Mrs. J. B. Kendrick, post
master, opened the office for bust
ness. The safe was completely
wrecked evidently with charge of
nitroglycerine. The time of the rob-
berry was fixed at 200 o'clock this
morning by the fact that several citi-
zens were awakened by the muffled
explosion, but did not think it impor-
tant enough to investigate,
