This com-I ,mittee named the Washington unit as the band from this state, | The Georgia representative rank ed high, winning first division in the marching contest and second | division in the concert contest.

Judges and compet ing band leaders were loud in their praise of the Georgia unit. The entite perscrne! of the band made the trip to Greenwood.

Many Georgia parents, including a large number in Athens, have solved the problem of a restless: boy and the summer months by en rolling him in the Y camp; and the boys like it. 1 The camp has grown in popu larity throughout the state, with‘ indications pointing to an unusually large enrollment this vear. The Y camp was established more than thirty years ago-by W. T. Forbes, sr., one of the state's leading reli gious teachers and instructors of youth. The camp has developed in a quarter of a century from the “blanket roll, skillet and cannedi goods” stage to an’expertly direct ‘ed summer colony for young people, ‘where they not only have a good ‘time, rowing, fishing. swimming, ' diving, horseback riding, playing ihaseball, various indoor games (during bad weathe®) and in many lother ways, including hiking, na ture study, ete,, but also are devel |oped in those manly traits of char |acter that enable them to meet and grapple with the problems of life. One of the features of the camp curriculum is the daily Bible study, | which has been made interesting land a welcome event for the boys |under Mr. Forbes' directorship. The morning cultural period, at which time outstanding men and women in literature, art, music and other cultural realms give the boys Ithe benefit of their experience, are also eagerly looked forward to by Ithe boys. Parents have become assured each summer that in the Athens Y They Lauglned When He Spoke to the Waiter In French - - - And Got Milk Toast By PAUL HARRISON I Paris—There’s a young man in an American consulate whose hobby is- torturing government jun keteers. I shall not lsay whigh Iyou;ngl man, nor which consulate. But if this item comes to the attentior' of any congressmen or senators who have journeyed abroad to find out what the League is doing about the invasion of tent caterpil lars, or to cut a ribbon opening an: American wing of some obscure art gallery—they’'ll know about whom I'm talking. ¥ This fellow does not have an ex pense account for entertaining junketeers, and-since he has gquite a lot of entertaining to do, he feels rather bitterly about it: So, with the disarming fervor of an exile meeting a countryman for the first time in years, he insists that the guests come to his own house and feast on his own cooking. “You know I am poor,” he says. “But 1 can promise you food such as you will find nowhere else on the continent.” | S TR 99 | Having Hot Time | The visitors, who would like to be out conducting a little research among the cabarets, repair to their host’s apartment and begin a long vigil. They watch the champig nons heing washed and skinned. They see the poulet singed. and dressed. They are given an op portunity to ingpect the various legumes. They hear a long dis courde on the delicate use of gar lic, but do not see a half dozen rloves put into the cooking. They are told at length about certain native spices, but scarcely expect to meet them in quantities suffici ent to scorch the lining out- of their throats. This goes on for hours, while guests fidget and grow ravenous. When finally ready, the dinner is very bad. Or is it?—maybe this truthfully is food such as. can be. found nowhere else on the conti nent. Senators who choke on one bite of chicken look as though they've just §wallowed an insult from Huey Long. And the cheap new wine in rare old bottles isn’'t much help. The young man is optimistic about getting an éxpense allow ance for entertaining junketeer® at cabarets and restaurants, In the meantime he’s having a lot of fun.

Years of ex-I perience on the part of the staffl has resulted in a camp life that is well supervised from the diet of the boys to their swimming lessons. | In addition to Mr. Forbes and Mrs. Forbes (the latter is camp mother and chief dietician, with Miss Louise Morton in active charge of the dining hall service, the camp staff includes Robert G. (Bobby) Hooks, famous University of Geor gia athlete and student, who is one of the leading young educators in Georgia, as camp director; Me- Carthy Crenshaw, Phi Beta Kappa graduate, University of Georgia, who was also a leading athlete at that institution, assistant director.

Soc they arranged a little dinner the other night; arranged it so every thing would seem quite casual, They spoke English when ordering their food, but the motor man made a great show of his French. He asked for hors d'oeuvres, got milk toast, and decided to say petitemarmite, and got milk toast. Protested, but the waiter couldn't seem to understand. For the main course he wanted ourntedos and ‘asperges. But he got milk toast again. The head waiter and cap tains—well bribed im advance by the plotters—only shrugged in the face of his rage. So finally he broke down and lapsed into Eng lish, and the dinner went off smoothly, The cosmopolite was cured.

Bronze Statue Is to Honor Dr. Crawford Long at Danielsville ATLANTA — Steffen Thomas, prominent Atlanta sculptor, has been commissioned by a legisla tive committee to execute a statue of Crawford W.

There is no tedious period of breaking-in for 500 or 1000 miles. You ¢an drive it up to 50 miles an hour the first day. And after the first hundred miles you can drive it as fast as you desire. That means greater motoring enjoyment for every motorist. It is especially important to motorists who are thinking about a new ear for a vacation trip — to physicians, salesmen and all those who use a car for business. Instead of dragging along at slow speeds for days, you can make good time from the start. The reason for this is as important as the result. The Ford V-8 needs no breaking-in because of R C. A.
