There is some talk among the board
of trustees of the University of Georgia
of passing a resolution forbidding in the
future any woman from appearing on
the chapel stage.
Last year the State Normal School al
lowed its representative, who was a
young lady, to speak there and the trus
tees raised no objection, bat at the same
time seated that it was not to be regard
ed as a preoedent. Thla year the repre
sentative from the State Normal Sohool
is a yonog lady and she will deliver her
essay at the chapel tomorrow afternoon.
She is Miss Isabella Jcrdan, of Angosta,
a most charming and talented jonng
lady who bat bean attending the State
Normal School and who won her place
in a contest in whioh several of the
young men at the Normal Sohool partic
ipated.
•The traitees will enter no objection
to Mies Jordan delivering her essay, bnt
there are several of the board who are
determined to have a resolution passed
if possible prohibiting the custom in the
future. At tho same time there are a
number who take the position that the
right should not be denied any branch
of the University to send as its repre
tentative anyone who may win the
place, regardless of sex. It will be a
lively tilt between these" two opposing
faotions of the board and itis not cer

ten days at this same plaoe last summer

been decided to hold this years camp at
the same plaoe. The object of these
oamps conducted by the association, is
to give the boys an onting for ten days
or more under the best of Christian in
fluences. To rough it for awhile, to fish,
and to swim, to play ont-door gamea
and to learn more of the beauties of
God’s green world, and above all to
demonstrate to the boys that they are
better boya and can have more fan all
round in a Christian way than in any
other.
Good cocking is one of the features of
these camps. It is a treat to see the boys
line np hungry as wolves at meal times.
They do not leave anything on their
plates on these outings.
The byys will leave next Friday mom-

THE REAL CRANK
U Plainly narked.
William Mallory, of Athens,
Holds that Position on
Governor’s Staff.
Master William Revill Mallory, the
bright and attractive little son of Mr.
and Mrs. Walter A. Mallory, of this city,
has been officially named as the mascot
of Gov. Terrell’s staff.
This early entrance into stati politics
may be a forerunner cf great achieve
ments in the life of.a little boy. He is
the grandson of Mr. W. T. Revill, the
veteran editor of the Meriwether Vindi
cator and a great nephew of the late
Gov. William Y. Atkinson.
A crank is one who stays in beaten
paths when common sense tells him to
leave.
The real crank is one who persists in
axing (offee because accustomed to and
yet kuows it harts him. Itis this one
who always pays the penalty, while the
sensible person who gives np coffee and
takes cn Postnm Food Coffee in its place
enjoys all the benefits of returning
henlth.
A well known manufacturer's agent
of New York city visited the grocery de
prrtment of one of the big New York
a ores not long ago and there he tasted a
sample cup of Postnm made the right
way He said afterwards : "Jnst through
the energy of that yonng woman who
was serving Postnm there I became a
convert to the food drink and gave np
the drag drink coffee and got well.
I had nsed coffee to exoess and was
gradually becoming a complete wreok.
getting weak er and more nervons every
day. I paid the penalty for nsing coffee,
and when I tasted the delicious Postnm
I was glad indeed to make the change.
"Sol gave np the coffee altogether
and have nsed Postnm instead ever
since. My family at first called me
c:ank bnt seeing how Postnm benefited
me the first month they all got in line
and as a result of Postnm’s remarkable
benefits to me we all drink it now en
tirely in ylace of coffee and we are
well.”

tlons of this great institution to the state
