volts, isolated and independent, in s
various parts of Islam.”
“The events of today are confirm
ing predictions which I made in our ■
interview of last winter. The allies |
pursued their policy of carrying'out I
rotten cieaties, the Moslems have ;
.'een the (,'h.ristian tb’eves quarreling !
over the war loot and now the final
stage in the great poker game has
been reached.
“The allies have been bluffing.
Turkey has called the bluff and the
allies must back down.
“Veiled war between France and ;
England lias been going on in Asia
Minor for months. Italy has played
i both ends against the middle. The
Turk now has no respect or fear for
the western powers. The Moham- i
medan has seen that Christian j
thieves cahno.t stick together.”
Stoddard went to a book-shelf and
took down a copy of his “New World
of Islam.”
“Listen to this quotation from a
speech by Lloyd George,” Stoddard
said. “On Jan. 5, 1915, the British •
prime minister made the following
declaration; nor are we fighting to I
deprive Turkey of its capital or of 1
•the rich and renowned lands in
Thrace which are predominantly
Turkish, in race.’ ”
“That was the pledge of Lloyd
George. In that same year, when
allied statesmen were talking about
self-determination, they were draw
ing up secret treaties dividing Tur
key among the allied powers.
“Now what is the situation? On
one side we have the quarreling
thieves. England, France and Italy
are split by dissention. On the oth
er side is Mustapha Kemal, shrewd
and able, and surrounding him a
body of capable men and women.

Turk success has been Halide Han

“Is an alliance of Turkey, Ger- ;

“It is possible. If the nations of '
Western Europe continue to treat
Turkey as they are now doing and !
have done, they will drive it into

they will drive Germany if France

tern of authority.

naie that we did not take over a I

My suggestion is that we leave |

i been using Greece as a football long I
I enough. Let the Greeks decide how '
; and by whom tl‘.?y shall be ruled.
' The immediate cause of the disturb- ‘

Clark, a member of the club, has been I
invited to accept a part on the pro- !
gram at the state federation meeting, i
Following appointment of the com- I
mittees, it was announced that the i
annual music scholarship offered by
the clu bto the Americus music stu
dent showing unusual talent, had
been awarded by the scholarship com
mittee to Louesa English. Little Miss
English is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Will English, who reside .in
Church street, and her musical won;
has been the subject of comment
throughout the year among members.
Many of these believe the child has a
brilliant musical future in prospect.
A new feature added to the club
work this year is that in the junior
department. Miss Kate Land, chair
man of the junior work committee,
recently moved to Americus from At
lanta, where she was prominent in the
junior work of the Atlanta Music
Study club. While a resident of that
city, Miss Land was associated with
Miss Evelyn Jackson, state presi
dent of the Music Study clubs and
I also president of the South Atlantic
, division of junior work in the Music
! Study club. Miss Land is hopeful
* she can persuade Miss Jackson to
visit Americus at’ an early date and
; assist in the organization of this hew
j department here.
In order to stimulate interest in
music among-students in Americus’
schools, the club this year purchased
a handsome Victrola which will be
installed Monday in Furlow Gram
mar school. A full complement of
I interesting, instructive ami enter
taining records will also be provided

ATLANTA, Sepet. 25.-—Outgoing
trains over the A., B. & A. railway
next Tuesday, September 26, will
carry hundreds of farmers front Geor
gia and neighboring states on a spec
ial visit to South Georgia. All along
the line of the railroad preparations
are being made reports received

handed . ons of toil and the expert
agrieulturali-ts who will go with
them on the sight-seeing tour.
This will be the second time within
a few weeks that big delegations of

Georgia territory. The A., B. & A.
road ran an excursion, in August on
which were many leading farmers
from Georgia and adjoining states’.
Returning farmers, in discussing the
trip with state agriculturists, de
clared that the variety and extent ol’
the diversified crops of South Geor
gia proved e revelation.
Joseph Booker has gone to Mont
gomery where he will spend the win
ter with his grandparents and will
attend Sidney Lanier high school.
