PRESIDENT HARDING’S FATHER
, .The New Orleans folks’ long suit is putting on an
entertainment for a big crowd. They are skilled in
the occult art of hypnotism whicWthey employ freely
on all occasions, and sometimes produce the most
Surprising results. Their Jlardi Gras festivals have
the Crescent City famous.
I Dr. George T. Harding, of Marion, Ohio, father of
■fteiident Harding, ’is one of the prominent Grand
’Army of the Republic men who took part in the pro
ceedings of the big Confederate reunion that has
jugt come to a close. In an address before the re-
unitflf he declared that he wanted a reunion of the
Bluemnd Gray held in Washington, D. C., next year
MOossible. He declared he considered Robert E. Lee
tile greatest of American generals, and Jefferson
Dtfvfe one of the country’s greatest statesmen. He
Said lie felt very kindly toward the South, inasmuch
ds his grandmother was a cousin of the mother of
Jefferson Davis.
Dr. Harding thanked the veterans for the manner
;in which he had been received, and he added: "I
Want-to thank the Southern people, too, tor the
indness with which they have treated my son. The
utb' never had a better friend than Warren G.
i
• The pleasing amenities of the occasion Were fur-
• ther added to when later Dr.. Harding was again
called to the platform and a Daughter of the Con-
» fedefacy, bearing a huge silk Confederate flag, an-
nounced that he had expressed a desire for one.
When the emblem of the *Stars and Bars was pre
sented to him he expressed his thanks, telling the
veteiiane he knew that they had stood by it and that,
“if I had been down here I suppose I, too, would have
been .lpyal to it.” These were outstanding features
of a ivery interesting occasion, which time in a few
short-years must put an end to. .
CAPTAIN T. H. DOZIER
. Captain T. H. Dozier, Clarke’s pioneer school
superintendent, was to have delivered an address
Prrtthu iveek before the convention of county school
. -superintendents in Atlanta on the "School of 70
years Ago.” Sickness prevented him from attend-
J in g the convention. . , ; . „
F The subject of Captain Dozier’s speech naturally
brings to one’s mind his experience as an educator
end how‘rich of history of the development of edu-
^' cation in this state his address would have been.
Captain Dozier is one of the county’s honored and
i’Spverad citizens. His entire life has been given to
'■'‘education and to the wiping out of ignorance and
. , iilitetjarcy,—to the happiness of others. He is with-
• out u doubt the oldest school teacher in Georgia, one
A who has followed the profession he chose at the end
of hi! college career, and has followed it steadfastly
4a-this day. He is the oldest living graduate of Emory
In* College, having graduated in 18D6; is a distinguished
Ucifeop of the Confederacy and the father of a family of
leaders,i and luckily for Athens they are leaders
among .our own citizens.
Seventy years a teacher. Seventy years a servant
to hi* fellow-man. Seventy years of gertuine useful-
I nos*.-a lifetime of honor, friendship and respect of
his fallows. That’s a life worth living. That s a life
to lie appreciated. -_ ,

INTENSIFYING FRAGRANCE
there is another Luther Burbank doing stunts
With flowers in France. Professor Daniel of a univer
sity in Britany. He has intensified greatly the per
fume of flowers by grafting one plant on another of
the same family. . . ... „
Prbfcssor Daniel first experimented by grafting
wormwood on chrysanthemums, thereby getting
splendid large flowers with much stronger perfume,
which had a peculiar quality altogether delightful.
He then planted seeds and from the new plant got
some' flowers with strong perfume and some with
noneiat all. He explained his discovery to the Acad-

GRAND JURY REPORT
■ AND PRESENTMENTS
April, 1923, Term of Superior Court, Clarke County,
Georgia.
To Judge Blanton Fortson,
Superior Court Clarke County,
.April Session, 1923.
The undersigned members of the
Grand Jury herewith submit to you
the following presentments:
Having confidence irr the ability
of our Courts to dispense justice to
both state and defendant, we the
Grand Jury of the Superior Court
of Clarke County desire to express
this confidence by condemning the
practice of petitioning the Court to
modify sentonces after they have
been fixed by the Court.
TtfVse petitions signed by tho
people only cause personal embar
rassment, .and • we feel that our
Courts should be spared this un
necessary .annoyance.
Realizing the increasing dangers
Incident to heavy automobile and
truck traffic on good roads now
built and being built, we believe
that every safe guard should be
given for the protection of live*
and property. We, therefore, rec
ommend to the County Commis
sioners that danger signs be placed
at all dangerous curves and cross
ings, and that two traffic officers
be placed ?n the principal roads # of
the Coitnty, with instructions to
enforce the law.
We ask that the members of the
Legislature from this County sup
port aud endeavor to have enacted
suitable State Laws providing for
the regulation, control and opera
tions of automobiles and trucks on
the public highways.
We ask that the Commisslonerr
of the County, plaqe road signs at
all road crossings in the County,
which shall give the name of the
different roads, as required by
State Law*.
W’e recommend to the County
Commissioners that a certified au
ditor be employed to make a thor
ough audit of all books and rec
ords of County Officers and said
auditor have his report ready and
report to the next Grand Jury.
We understand that no audit has
been made by a certified auditor
for ten (10) years or more, and
that the last two Grand Juries have
made the same recommendation.
• We recommend that tfie Clerk be
paid $10.00 for his services. w
We recommend that Harold Tuck
be appointed u Notary Public and
Ex-Officio Justice of the Peace for
tfce 219th Dlptrtct G. M.
We recommend that Dr. W. H.
Cabuniss be elected a member of
the County Health Hoard to fill
the ; vacancy caused by the death
of Dr. D. H. DuPree.
