M. G. MICHAEL l
When Colonel M. G. Michael‘
opened the door of his office this
mornihg he walked into a bower
of beautiful flowers and on the'
desk were stacks of letters and
telegrams and many personal,
sifts—from hundreds of friends
who remembered that today was
their friend’s 73rd birthday an
niversary., 1
For several days the entire‘
force of the big store had been
secretly planning a big pienic forl
this afternoon in his honor, but;
the plans were called off due toa‘
the death yesterday of a relative{
of Mr Michael. And manyl
friends who chose to call during |
the day and personally deliveri
their congratulations and welll
wishes were disappointed to find
[that he had left . for Atlanta to[
E::'b-:hl'fhv funeral services, {
| As on many previous years, the
birthday was to have changed{
his daily routine of attention tO}
business little, except for thel
many hundreds of times he Wouldl
stop to thank friends for their |
felicitations. |
But with the host of persons‘
Who have long :known -and admive.
ed him for his kindness, public
ll.v.uirir»dnuss and thoughtfulness of
others, the day is a red letter one‘
and one that is not forgotten. }
His long years of labor for the
upbuilding of Athens, this com-j
munity and his state are too well
known to mneed repeating. The
things he has accomplished for
Athens and this section will live
long" and bear fruit for many
years to come.
It is safe to say that in the
last half-century or more there
has been not one movement for
the good of Athens that has not
found him in, the front ranks of
the workers; and likewise he has
never hesitated in opposing those
things which tend to tear down or
Impede worthwhile works.
Though he ecarries the title of
Colonel, bestowed upon him for
s outstanding citizenship, grace-’
fully, he is more often addressed
4 “Mr. Buddy”—and the note of
‘Mimate and respected friendship
‘r\‘lu.'n the latter implies, is more
Pleasing to him. For, among the
'ings he holds highest among
")“““‘H Gualities, is that of friend
saip,
In this connection it is well to
“ll attention to the fact that the
” : school ~at Colbert was the
o 0 put in concrete form the
‘hought that runs through the
HGs of all when “Mr. Buddy” is

Tonight
BERLIN — (#) — Jews remain
ed inside their homes today as
Julius Streicher, most relentless
and energetic of their suppressors,
arrived to review at two mass
meetings the progress of the Nazis’
month-old anti-Semitic drive.
As Streicher entered the capital
like a crusader, exciting real con
cern among Jews over what further
hate he might engender, official
goads against them and Catholic
continued in various parts of the
Reich.
Streicher, publisher of Der Stuer
mer, wag announced as the speaker
for a crowd of 20,000 persons to
night in the Sportspalast, the city’s
largest assembly hall. Tickets were
exhausted days ago.
A second address was arranged
for an overflow crowd of equal
size. Both demonstrations were
prepared in an area of which Jews
form 21 per cent of the population.
Fearing that the fiery Streicher
will communicate some of his anti-
Jewish fervor to hig hearers, Jew
ish organizations counseled mem
bers of their race to keep off the
streets. Count Von Helldorf, Ber
lin police president who sympath
izes with Streicher’s views, order

“QClimate, soil, grass, quality of

will become an important factor
in the Georgia farm business.”

WASHINGTON — (P — Aiming]
at a bigger and better army and
navy in 1936, the government will!
spend on the two services a sum |
equivalent to about $6.35 for each|
man, woman and child in the]
country, |
Revised figures, including mili
tary funds in the second deficiency
bill, increase total appropriations
for mational defense by the present
congress to $806,4446,829. This
$458,684,379 goes to the navy, and
$347,762,450 to the army.
The navy’s 1936 appropriations
are an increase of $174,000,000 over
1935, while the army is getting
$97,000,000 more than last year.
Analysis of the appropriations
show that for the increased expen
diture of approximately $271,000,-
000 the army and navy will get
more men, more airplanes, more
warships and some new equipment.
Officials said, however, that a
considerable part of the increased
cost of maintaining army and navy
has been made necessary by higher
costs of living and equipment, and
restoration of pay cuts.
Nearly $121,000,000 has been al
loted for continuing construction
of 62 vessels now being built, and
laying keels of 24 more warships.
