PAGE SIX {I A FREE RIDE FOR t I EVERYBODY | RGEe “Hats Off!" %Ruby Thompson o flay our hat is off for Miss ?i%uby Thompson, Home Demon ‘W’fion agent for Clarke county. };‘fl Ruby” isn't as well known *3!l the city of Athens as she is in ‘the ' county, but certainly Atheni ‘ans ought to know about her. Most of her time is spent in the sur- Tounding territory, or in her uffice at the coury house, and th work she ‘@oes is done quietly and with out much hullabaloo. However, hol‘; efforts in helping the folks cut ini the county—both in the form of welfare work, and in the prgani zation of classeg for the purpose of raising the standards of iiving there—is worth notice. It is Jarge 1y through her efforts tha, the women in the county have banded together in their various commun ities and formed clubs which are assets, both to the community and the county. “Miss Ruby's” friend- | liness and personality makes ev erygne who knows her like her, and it'd be hard to find a better loved person anywhere in Clarke county. That's why we're saying “Hats off to Ruby Thompson!” Congratufations And Many Happy Returns We've just noticed that the three Methodist churches in town have been fortunate enough to have the Conference send the pastors from last year back again for another year: Lestor Rumble, to the First Methodist, L. B. Jones, to Young Harris, end J. A. Langford, to Oconee stret. Rev. Rumble will be here for his sixth term, having been here something like two years more than average. Under Rev. Jones's leadership, the Young Harris church has grown and taken on new life. Rev. Langford {s returning for his second year, and his work has helped the Oco nee streey Methodist church be come an active force in civie life. | That's why we're congratulating these churches on their good for tune in having these men returned to them. Maybe It Was . Two Other Fellows He was talking abou a lady high in the social set of Athens. “She's one of thoge—you-know—" he essayved—‘socialite—or lis il ‘gocialist’?” And one fellow we know insists on calling “socialists” “gocialouses.” | Mala Chorus At . Hill’s Baptist We notice with a great deal of interest thay the Wise Male Cho rus of Philadelphia will be pre sented in recital at Flilll's Baptis! church Wednesday night. This course appeared at the World's Fair lasy summer and made a tremendous hit. It has appeared in Athens several times in the past, and each time. a large, audi ence of both white and colored people has enjoyed them. and those who have already heard them are enthusiastic about their return. One colored fellow we know, told 'u(s‘that’ there were special seats “preserved” for white people, The admission price is thirty-five cents. Things That Make Us Listen In Phil Baker telling the story of how roast pig was discovered when a Chinaman's house burned down and the pig was burned alss, And how everybody in the vllfige began burning down their - houses, too, so they could get some )‘% pig—with incidental music featuring “Keep the Home Fires Burning” . . .

Young John Renko, who won first place for dancing at the tea- |1 ~ dance given by Misses Arnold and | . Upson for their class last week, is | . also a talented free-hand artist. | . He's never studied art, and still - he can copy almost any picture . given him, without tracing. The - only trouble, he'll tell you, is that " he can't ge; the perspective right | % all the time, and his horses some- | - times look like daschunds. When | . something like that happens, he . gets disgusted, erases what he's ' done, and insists that that's defi . nite proof that he can’t draw. All ~ of his school-mates, however, know . that he can—and he's kept pretty . busy drawing pictures for them. ¥ - - Mayoralty Race in Monroe Ends in Tie NONROE, GA.—{(#)—N. L.

Brittain Declares{ ATLANTA,; Ga~—(AP)—Dr. M.l L. Brittains president of the Geor gia School .of Technology, in zm‘ address Saturday said he believed| “time will show the wisdom” of the return of the department ut‘f commerce, which was abolished by'| the University System Board of | Regents, effective July 1, 1934. ‘ “Engineers certainly need train ing in ‘business “administration as ‘ much as professional men,” I)r.-‘ Brittain .said in an address pre- l pared for delivery to the luncheon ; meeting of the Georgia Tech Nat- l jonal Alumni association, “but ‘what I fear’ most is that this first ‘e}imluation of commerce will lead to further loss as of architecture, ‘l‘or instance, with the purpose u[| making Georgia Tech a mere de partment of the University at Ath ens instead of a complele techni cal ‘college as I desire. | “Georgia cannot afford to dim the lustre of the school which hus‘ won fame in this country as well as abroad through the excl*llence; of its work,” he said. | President Brittain said ‘“not in- | tentionally would the fine person nel of the Board of Regents di minish this hard-won position, but I am frank te say that this | loss of our commerce department would never have occurred—in ' spite of our survey commissions— if Tech had been given its just share of members on the Board of Regents with the instinctive and natural leaning towards their alma mater.” Dr. Brittain expressed apprecia tion for the gift to the school of a portrait of himself. The portrait was presented by the class of 1933 {and was unveiled in Brittain Me imm'ia] hall Saturday, ———————-————-———————ll . Three Minute | .
