COMMITTEE VOTES TO
TAKE OVER LOGY COBB
The committe of the house on the
University of Georgia and its branches
voted Thursday afternoon to recom
mend the passage of the bill authoriz
ing the trustees of the university to ac
cept the tender of Lucy Cobb institute
in Athens as a gift to the state to be
made a branch of university for
female students.
Representative Russell, of Floyd
county, opposed the bill on the ground
that the institute would increase the
burden of expense on the state, and in
his connection he brought up the well
known argument that higher education
receives a larger proportion of support
than, common school education.
Chancellor David C. Barrow, of the
University of Georgia, and Judge
Georae F. Gober, of the university trus
tees, spoke in, favor of the bill, as did
also Hugh W. Rowe, editor of the Ath
ens Banner.
They pointed out that Lucy Cobb’s
plant is worth from $75,000 to SIOO,OOO.
that it will be turned over to the state
free from debt, and that no appropria
tion will be needed for its maintenance
at least for two years.
They outlined the plan to establish
courses for female students which
would enalbe them to obtain degrees
just the same as male students in the
university proper.
Mrs. Nellie Peters Black and a dete
ntion of women representing the Geor
gia Federation of Women’s clubs ap
peared before the committee in behalf
of full and free admission of females to
the University of Georgia.
They were not opposed to the plan to
take over Lucy Cobb, but they favored
it only with the proviso that female
students should be admitted to the
ourses at the university whenever they
desired admission. They declared that
Georgia is backward: in failing to pro
vide for women the same education it
provides for men. Mrs. Black ex
pressed the opinion that the university
under its charter has no authority to
deny admission to a woman.
Others who spoke besides Mrs. Black
were Mrs. P. H. Mell, Mrs. D. B. Gray,
I Mrs. Samuel M. Inman, Mrs. Spencer
,R. Atkinson and Mrs. Samuel Lump
kin.—Atlanta Journal.

-AMERICAN NOTE-SEEN -
IN NEW FRENCH
LONDON, July 14.—A correspond
ent in Paris calls attention to the pre
ponderating “American note” in the
French fashions this year. He writes:
There is an American accent about
all the new French clothes. It is
difficult to define, but it is there, and
its price is high. Some of the dress
makers when; they went on strike car
ried the Stars and Stripes, and when
asked why, as they were agitating
mainly for the ‘English week-end,’ they
should carry the American flag, they
replied, ‘Oh, it is the prettiest!’ ThJ
same logic is applied to clothes. Anire
ican women have always dressed well,
and do not mind the cost, so it is to ths
Paris dressmakers’ advantage to make
clothes for them.
“Hats show a strong American note.
The soft felt hat turned up on one
side is worn with a touch of cowboy
swagger. The light muslin dress is
also an American fashion. Shoes and
trimmage show a similar inspiration.
In fact, to be dressed ‘a i'Americano’
is very much the thing.”
