People I Know (Continued from page 5) draw many visitors to view our city in its festive dress. The pre-nuptial festivities do not seem to be having a wearing effect on the bride-elect’s mind. She is just as capable of concen- trating as ever, as has been shown at the parties on Tuesday and Wednesday. Both times Mackie has been high scorer and has re- ceived that prize in addition to her guest prize. • Not being content with that she almost won the "bin- go” prize at the party Wednesday —which speaks well for her luck as well as her ability. The time is drawing nigh for the wedding which brings me to tell you that when Mackie goes down the aisle to meet Charles at the altar she will be wearing the same veil that her sister, Florence, wore when she became the bride of Har- ry Lawrence last fall. Also she will have the same dime in her shoe that Florence had in hers. The handkerchief that Mackie will carry, an exquisite thing of duch- ess lace, is a gift from Miss Arla McCarthy and made by her espec- ially for the bride-to-be. 22 CONCRETE PAVEMENT ENDS iThe saddest sign on rood or street- |“Concrete Ends—400 ft. For Safety’s sake PAVE THE GAPS WITH CARD-OF THANKS We wish to express our heart- felt thanks and appreciation for the acts of kindness, messages of sympathy, and the beautiful floral offerings received from our many friends in Canton and elsewhere at the death of our son and grand- son, Robert Mooney. Mr. and Mrs. Owen Mooney Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Mooney Univeter Mrs. Barber is spending several weeks in Atlanta as the guest of relatives. Mr. and Mrs. Glen Lawson, and son, spent Sunday in Lathemtown. Now We Can Do The “Impossible” Why do state highway departments warn the public: "Concrete pavement ends”? Because it is universally accepted that speeds which are reasonable and safe on concrete become dangerous on other surfaces. To save lives, to prevent accidents . . . demand con- crete all the way. True and even, it has no high crown—is usable to its full width. Brakes are at their best on its gritty non-skid surface. Its light gray color and sharply defined edges give high visibility at night. Any car is a better car on concrete. And concrete saves money for motorists and for tax payers. Insist on concrete for your roads.

FRANK HAYES Ball Ground, Ga.—Phone 442 Stewart Says— , Preparedness Issue Can Easily Become Heated Controversy By CHARLES P. STEWART Central Press Columnist. UNCLE SAM is developing con- siderable military, naval and avia- tion activity. The army's being enlarged. Our fighting fleet is be- ing strengthened. Our air force is being stimulated. Our industrial equipment .is being keyed 4 up to meet pos- esible wartime i . requirements. ------ Chairman ‘. a Key Pittman -- and Sol Bloom, . 4 respectively of the senate and house foreign ' w relations com- e• mittees, just 1now are the two busiest Charles P. legislators in Stewart Washing ton, but next to them, in point of activity, are Chairman Morris Sheppard and Andrew J. May of the senate and house military affairs committees and Chairmen David I. Walsh and Carl Vinson of the senate and house naval affairs committees. The theory is that a country which is so strong as to be hope- lessly dangerous to tackle is pretty sure to be left in peace; that a weak country is sure to be imposed on. The counter-argu ment is that a very strong coun- try is likely to be tempted to use its strength aggressively. Of course, it will say it’s using it de- fensively, but pacifists maintain that it’s hard to tell the difference. It can be reasoned either way. Potentially strong but actually unarmed China can be jumped on by essentially weaker but better- prepared Japan. Germany, loaded for bear, isn’t afraid to go to the mat with anybody. Maybe it’s an overbearing attitude. War Versus Peace Well, we’re preparing for war, to guarantee peace, so far as we’re concerned. I saw the same prescription tried 20-odd years ago. My recollection of it dates back, in a ridiculous way, to the Ford Peace Ship. 0 When the Oscar II sailed from Hoboken for Europe in 1915, with its cabins full of peace crusaders, among its passengers was S. S, McClure, the magazine man. Just before we departed he’d acquired an advance copy of President Wil- son’s "preparedness message" to congress. We needed to “prepare,” said the president, tn order to scare war away from us. ! The "Horsecar Second of the Transatlantic Crosstown Line,” as the Oscar II was known to the newspaper men on board, was about 48 hours at sea before the arrival of the "release date" of that message. At that juncture Colonel (a courtesy title) McClure read the message, in general assembly in the second class dining salon, to the “peacers”—approximately 300 of ’em. Instantly they split two ways. One bloc asserted that the pres- ident was right—that "prepared- ness" was a peace measure. The other bloc contended that it was the first step toward our entrance into the conflict. Split Wide Open It split the Peace Expedition wide open. The anti-“preparedness” faction wanted to wireless back a condem- nation of the Wilsonian program. The pro - “preparedness” crowd wouldn’t let ’em do it. The war itself wasn’t fought as bitterly as that contest was fought between the rival groups of "peacers" on that voyage. Numberless insults were exchanged, even whiskers were pulled on the high sea in con- nection with that controversy. It was a shipload of cranks, to be sure. Ashore, scattered and diluted by a lot of rational at- mosphere, individuals certainly wouldn’t have become so cuckoo. But bottle up 300 of ’em in one ship, under hatches, in mid-Atlan- tic in winter weather, and let ’em ferment!—and the brew’s due to be something weird and wonderful. I always thought the anti- “preparedness” bunch won the ar- gument. We did “prepare” —somewhat. And we got into the war. I’ve met many surviving Ford "peacers" since then. The then anti - “preparedness” spokesmen say that we got in because we "prepared." The then pro-"pre- paredness” spokesmen say that we got in because we didn’t "prepare" sufficiently. But they all were "peacers." FACTOGRAPHS As a general thing, rich people do not live as long as the poorer classes, statistics show. The president of Argentina must be a native of the country and a Roman Catholic. His term is six years. Houses of ashes and soap, with a very small percentage of sand and cement are being built at Sonop, a government settlement for poor farmers in the Trans vaal, South Africa. Hebrew shofar, oldest type n, is the forbear of the a trombone, trumpet and French horn. Bombs were invented by a clergyman. - Galen, Bishop of Munster.
