The Sixth Annual Convention of the Catholic Laymen’s Assod atl CONVENTION NOTES The Washington, Wilkes County delegation to the convention carried off the honors for enthusiasm. It was out to get the convention for 1921, and invita tions from the Board of Commerce and from the Mayor to the Association were read in the convention. The delegates to the convention and others who ap peared in the photograph which is reproduced in this issue were too busy after the picture was taken to order. Several have inquired where they might get the pictures. They are being handled by the Ham- ilton-Beach Film Co., 146 Marietta Street, Atlanta, and are a dollar and a half each. The Southern Book Concern, 71 Whitehall Street, Atlanta, is making a special price of $2.50 for framing them. It was worth while to journey to Atlanta to meet such staunch sons of the Church as Col. Malone and R. W. Hatcher, both of whom spoke during the ses sions. Col. Malone is an author of note, and is sta tioned at Camp Benning. Mr. Hatcher is from Mil- ledgeville. Admiral Benson was entertained during his stay at Atlanta by J. J. Spalding. Informal dinners in his honor were given by Mr. Spalding and Mr. Haverty on successive evenings. Michael Williams of the National Council of Catholic Men came from Washington for the meeting, and de livered a stirring address near the close of the con vention. It is the hope of the officials of the Laymen s Association that Mr. Williams’ book, Catholics in the War, will have in Georgia the wide circulation it de serves, - Rev. P. A. Ryan, S. J., until recently pastor of Sa cred Heart Church, Augusta, but who has been in San Francisco during the summer for his health, wired greetings to the convention from California.
