STRIKING DOCK
WORKERS DEFY
11. S. WAR DEPT.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.— (By As
sociated Press) —A committee repre
senting the striking longshoremen to
day flatly refused a virtual ultima
tum from the war department in re
gard to handling four freight ships
and six passenger ships now on their j
way to New York.
The war department had announc
ed through Chairman Ripley, of the
national adjustment commission, that
it “intended” the ships should be
handled. Ripley asked the strikers’ i
committee if they would promise to
take care of these ten ships and re
ceived a flat refusal.
Extension of the strike to coast
wise traffic at every Atlantic port ap
peared inevitable today. The only
apparent hope lay in a meeting of j
the strike committee with the na
tional adjustment commission, which
began this morning.

You Can Depend on the
Man Who Advertises
Nine times out of ten you will find that the man who ad
vertises is the man who most willingly returns your mon
ey if you are not satisfied.
He has too much at stake to risk losing your trade or your
confidence. You can depend upon him,
He is not in business for today or tomorrow only—but for
next year and ten years from next year. He knows the
value of your good will.
You get better merchandise at a fairer price than he could
ever hope to sell if he did not have the larger volume of
business that comes from legitimate advertising and goods
that bear out the promise of the printed word.
Don't miss the advertisements. This very day they call
your attention to values that tomorrow you will be sorry
you overlooked.

Hamp Sewell, director of music at the Lee Street revival, and his
famous trombone.
Rev. C. M. Dunaway, the evangelist i
who will do the preaching during the I
revival at Lee Street church, begin- ;
ning today, is a man of unusual abili
ty and power, according to those who
know him. He was converted about
15 years ago. At the time of his
conversion he was quite a society
man in the city of Atlanta. Imme
diately after his conversion became
an evangelist of the Methodist
church. He has labored with wonder
ful success in practically every state
in the union. Wherever he has gone
he has been able to do a wonderful
work. His converts “stick ” There
are now some forty or fifty ministers
of the gospel in the Methodist church,
many of them the leading preachers
of the church, who w T ere converted
under Mr. Dunaway's ministry.
He labors with a passion in the
Master’s cause. He is not of the
clap-trap school of evangelists. He is
sane, practical and wonderfully spirit
ual. He is of very pleasing per
sonality and always gains the confi
dence of the people in the first ser
mon. It is said by many of the lead
ers of the church that C. M. Dun
away is without doubt the best evan
gelist in the state of Georgia.
Mr. Dunaway and Mr. Johnson,
I pastor of Lee Street church, are
close personal friends, the latter be
ing converted thirteen years ago.
Mr. Dunaway will speak at the Lee
Street church each day at 10 a. m.
; and at night at 8 p. m.
Hamp Sewell, the musical director
for the revival, is a musician of note,
; being a composer of music and pub
i lisher of the widely used “Rymns of
; Glory” and “World Revival Hymns.”
| Mr. Sewell uses his trombone consid
[ erably in his services. This is a fea
ture, as he is considered one of the
best trombonists in the land. If you
love good music don’t fail to hear
him.
Mr. Sewell will be assisted by a
choir of twenty five voices with Mrs.
IT. H. McLendon at the piano. Mr.
j Sewell will use his famous book,
j “World Revival Hymns” in the meet-
I ing.
