Who May Be Candidates
For President
Washington, D. C. August 14. A
the situation presents itself today the
Republican nomine:* for Pre ident
next year in all probability will be
taken from the following list of pos
sibilities:
Cal\ in ft-. !/ . Ml- ‘
thirtieth- President of th ** United i
States by reason of the death of;
President Harding.
Charles Evans Hughes of New
York, at pri -nit secretary of state,
a formi r governor of New York and
a former nominee for President of
the United States.
Herbert Hoover, California, at
present secretary of commerce, dis
tinguished as a student of both do
mestic and foreign economic prob
lems, and the man who maintained
the food supply during the World
War.
Hiram W. Johnson, senator from
California, a former governor of that
state, and a candidate for the Repub
lican nomination for President in
1920.
William E. Borah, Idaho, a mem
ber of the senate, who, although lab
eled a Republican, has maintained
considerable independence ever since
he entered public life.
Robert M. LafolJette, Wisconsin, a
senator who makes his appeal to the
radicals of the country, and who has
been a candidate for the Republican
nomination for President at the last
four conventions.
Irvine L. Lenroot, Wisconsin, sen
ator, who is the leader of the anti-
Lafollette faction in Wisconsin, and
who is looked upon as a progressive
conservative, if such a term may pro
perly be used.
John W. Weeks, Massachusetts, at
Present secretary of war, a form t
senator and an outspoken conserva
tive.
James E. Watson, Indiana, a mem
ber of the senate, who is aligned with
the conservatvie wing of the party.
Wliliam S. Kenyon, lowa, a former
United States senator, at present a
United States judge, who, like Sena
tor Lenroot of Wisconsin, is classi
fied as a progressive conservative.
I* rank O. Lowden, Illinois, former
governor of that state, and a poli
tician known throughout the country,
a candidate* for the Republican nomi
nation in 1920, who came* near car
rying off the prize.
brack B. Willis, Ohio, a member
of the senate and a former governor
of that state, who is an outstanding
“dry” and who generally acts with
the conservatives in th? party, but
who is not regarded as one of the old
guard.
Medill McCormick, Illinois, a sen
ator who is very ambitious and who
has steadily opposed participation by
the United States in the affairs of Eu
rope.
James W. Wadsworth, Jr., New
York, a United States senator, who
stands between the old guard crowd
and the prgoressives in the party, and
who is at the present time very pop
ular with the people of his own
state.
Time only can reveal how many of
these men will be candidates. It is
reasonably certain that not all of
them will enter the race.
Unless President Coolidge should
at an early date announce positively
that he will not be a eandidte, mem
bers of his cabinet would be barred
under the proprieties from becoming
candidates of the President’s official
family. On the other hand, if Pres
ident Coolidge should eliminate him
self, members of his cabinet would
feel, of course, that they were free
to enter the race without leaving the
cabinet. That there will be consid
erable demand that Hughes and Hoo
ver become candidates seems reason
ably certain.
Americans Are
Drinking Poison
“Rank poison” is what agents of
the prohibition bureau of the United
States say of the “booze” being im
bibed by the American people.
After analysis of 80,000 samples
of so-called whiskey the bureau finds
that only one per cent of it was real
stuff. The rest was poison.
The liquor supply of this country
comes from four sources, agents say.
The first and biggest supply is known
as “moonshine.” and W’hich is made
one day and drank the next.
Distilled in thickets, fields and
barns the containers are seldom
cleaned and always have some pois
onous matter left in them, which is
brewed into the next batch.
The second source of supply is the
redistilled denatured alcohol, always
containing a quantity of wood alco
hol. The third are smuggled goods,
and the fourth is liquor illegally
withdrawn from bonded warehouses.
These two latter sources furnish
the minimum supply.

When Daughter Goes To
College
Madison, Wis.—When is a girl
ready for college?
The question is asked in thousands
of homes along about this time each
year when family conferences are
being held to decide, whether or not
daughter should go on into higher
educational institutions.
Mother may say, “I think she had
better stay out for a year until she
becomes more mature before going
1 away to school, where she will make
new friends.”
Father probably will say, “Well,
it costs a heap of money nowadays
to send a girl to school, but—might
as well get it over with; let’s send her
this year.”
Answering the question at a con
ference of deans of women of the
Universities of Missouri, Minnesota,
Indiana, Maine, Texas Women’s Col
lege and other institutions, L. Louise
Nardin, dean at University of Wis
consin, says:
Up To Girl
“A girl is ready for college, when
she has learned how her mind works
and how she can make it work bet
ter; when she has acquired a spirit
ual inwardness and certitude in
life.”
Easy going attitudes assumed by
parents of girls about to enter col
leges and universities were scored
by Dean Nardin and she was backed
up by other educational leaders.
“Because they have finished high
school, parents consider that the girls
are automatically prepared to take
the next step and enter college. They
do not think of weighing the kinds
of habits, ideals and capacities for
choice, their daughters have ac
quired,” said Dean Nardin.
Recommendations
To overcome the present situation,
the deans recommended three reme
dies.
1. Students should not be allowed
to discontinue the study of Latin and
mathematics.
2. Pupils having high term grades
should not be. permitted to miss ex
aminations.
3. Systematic accounts of how
time is spent—in study, sleep and
recreation—should be kept.
High schools and preparatory in
stitutions could aid in carrying out
the three recommendations, it was
suggested.
Elimination of Latin and mathe
matics from the compulsory studies
in high schools would defeat every
purpose of schools, it was believed.
The two studies, the deans held, are
essential in making students learn
the power of concentration.

WILKES COUNTY MEN BUY
10,000 EGG INCUBATOR
Wilkes county is making prepara
tions to supply the big demand for
baby chicks by buying a 10,000 egg
incubator. Another incubator of the
same capacity was sold in Wilkes
recently.
A movement is on foot in Wilkes
now to put in a 40,000 egg hatchery.
Morgan county has a large hatchery
and other counties in this section are
putting in incubators. Director J.
H. Wood of the poultry husbandry
division at the State College of Agri
culture states that eastern capitalists
are planning to put in a big hacthery
in South Georgia and reap profits
Georgians should get and can get if
they take advantage of the big inter
est now in poultry raising.
