When Financiers Disagree Mr. and Mrs. Parker Duffy, of Morrow, Ga., passed through East Side last Sunday. C+d of Thanks. John Skelton Williams, former controller of the currency (portrait herewith), has been having a lively time with federal reserve system offi cials before a congressional commis sion. His •criticisms of the systems’ credit policies aroused resentment on the part of the system’s two highest officers, Governor Harding of the re serve board, and Governor Strong of the New York reserve bank. In one of the frequent verbal interchanges, Governor Harding charged across the committee room, swinging his list, but was halted by struggling associates just in front of his adversary. A few minutes later Mr. Strong, while reading to the commission a report which charged Mr. Williams with “false and misleading Statements,” was interrupted by the former controller who shouted Mrs. R. W. Mundy, in company with Mr. and Mrs. Luther Brown, all of Jonesboro, were guests of Mrs. B. Thornton last Sunday p. m. We wish to thank most sincerely the ( kind friends and neighbors, who were so tender and thoughtful of us and rendered their assistance to us in the recent illness and death of our sister and aunt. Words cannot ex* press our gratitude to you for your assistance in time of need. We es pecially thank Dr. Jones and the ones who stood by and did all in their poweri to alleviate the suffering of our dear one. May God’s richest bles sings abide with you in all the walks of this life and when you areXended be prepared to meet him at MWtfP ear ty gates, where sorrow never,jaqpes. but where flowers bloom withou^Afid ami life is one long enternal Sabbath day.

District Passengei Agent, 48 North Broad St., Atlanta Ga., for full information. We see numbers of children passing on their way to school, some of them little ones going for the first time, then others a size larger going into a grade higher than the one they were in during the last term. Then others almost large and old enough for their ears to be growing out. We believe a girl looks her best after her ears come out. You tell a horse’s age by its teeth and women by their eais. A fully grown woman has a pair of ears but the teeners have none (iv ible) they are a pretty ornament to a pretty head, young or old. PRIMUS. is false.” Mr. Williams charged that the board had countenanced undue lendings to a New York banking group during the last two years, for speculative uses, while forcing liquidation in southern and western agricultural districts, and that It had allowed extortionate in terest charges, and generally failed to “ease down” inflation.

See or write me. Senator Hiram Johnson of Cali fornia has issued a statement in which lie says that the sessions of the forth coming disarmament conference must be open. He says: “The disarmament conference must be held in the open. I realize the disadvantages of this course. 1 think I understand fully what may be said against it. But we have had our lesson. We have seen a world conference, commencing under the most favorable auspices, with ideal ism publicly expressed, and then have had that idealism throttled-in secrecy. “The Old diploma He game is one which at all hazurds must be avoided in the coming conference, in order that the world may be benefited and that the ultimate object of disarma ment and world peace may be ob tained. The only way in which we may avoid the pitfalls of secret diplo macy is by the sunlight of publicity. IN MEMORIAM Something? The death of W N. D. Dixon, which occurred late Saturday afternoon, February 12th. at his home in Fayette ville, brought sadness to an unusually large circle of kindred and friends. Truly we have lost a good man. In his death our church loses one of its best, purest, and brightest members, and our county one of its noblest citi zens. -v “Mr. Wordie.”- ,as he was ^imilia:r- ' aify' cahert, numbered fife friends by the hundreds, who admired him for his/, noble traits of character. He was a man of strong convictions, Ad had the courage of his convict ions. He stood for the right at all times and fearlessly condemned the wrong. Where he was wrong, it was an error of the head and not of the heart. From a very young man he was a faithful worker in the Methodist church and was his pastor’s true ,;friend. He served twelve years as superin tendent of schools in Fayette coun ty, over twenty years as steward of the church, and teacher in the Sab bath school, was for several years president of the county Sunday school association, and served the la^t three years of his life as farm demonstrator of Fayette county. He was also edit or of The Fayetteville News for a number of years. It might truly be said of him that, “he went about doing good." He dearly loved all the boys and girls of Fayette county and delighted in helping them. No one can tell how l^uch these boys and girls miss his visits to their homes, and his kindly words of council and advice. He gave the best years of his life to the people of his county, assisting in school work, church, Sunday school and community life and in any sphere in which he was needed, always ready, eager and anxious to speak a kind word or do a good deed. The writer has heard him many mines make the remark that he want ed to live to be an old man and do as > much good as possible in this world. But God said that it was enough, come up higher, and he was prepared to go. He had the confidence of all, and many came to him for counsel and ad vice. Many have been helped by him to COCHRAN Advertise for it in these columns Route No. 1 GEORGIA GETS WORLD’S GREATEST BIBLE SCHOLAR Athens, Ga., September 7.—One of the world’s greatest religious leaders, Dr. Campbell Morgan, of London, England, has selected, Athens, Geor gia, as his home in order that his children may enjoy the educational advantages of the University. “This is my third visit to Athens during the twenty-five years since I made my first voyage to America,'’ said Dr. Morgan in discussing his choice of the University city as a home, “and I think it is an ideal place to live and educate my chil dren.’’ Dr. Morgan, who is known as one of the greatest, if not the greatest Bible scholars in the world, will hold a two weeks’ Bible conference for ministers of all denominations in Athens in March. He will move to Athens, September 15th, and will put his son in the University of Georgia, and his two younger daughters in Lucy Cobb In stitute. Dr. Morgan, who was formerly pas tor of Westminster Chapel in Lon don, is greatly interested in the his tory of our times. He is a personal friend of /Lloyd George and other leaders in politics and statesmanship. !
