PAGE FOUR GEORGIA SOCIETY HAS MCFIII FELDER Board of Governors Adopts A Resolution Expressing Faith In Georgia Attorney ATLANTA, April 15.—At a meeting of the board of governors of the Georgia Socitey, says a New York dispatch received here today, a resolution was introduced and adopted unanimously expressing ab solute confidence in the innocence, integrity and character of Thos. B. Felder, who is president of that or ganization. It was further stated by the board, in its resolution, that from its knowledge of the situation it belived that the bribery charge re cently returned by a New York grand jury against Felder was with out any foundation in fact. Col. Felder, now a member of the Broadway legal firm of Feldei and McCrossin, is a former Atlanta lawyer and is well known over Georgia and the South. He was one of the leading figures in the Georgia prohibition fight a number of years ago, being largely instru mental in having dry legislation RYLANDER THEATRE TODAY TOMORROW Prices — Orchestra, 35c Balcony 25c Children under 12 years lOc • -tut COSMOPOLITAN • • "Enemies 7 foPCUdmen*\ /7»®i «•••»/ VICIKTtJKAKO •• • 1j II WjW Lionel Barrymore / «|ik MJ Alma Rubens mi «n / I The masterpiece of the / 'I author of ‘‘The Four / Horsemen” and “Blod / [j Wf.''Ty* Vri and Sand.” Staged in un- I IM we paralleled luxury and I If/ Iff splendor with a cast of I !

Means and his secretary Jarnecke, whom Mr. Felder Repre sented as legal counsel. The affi davit in the case was said to have been made by Samuel Safir, who is under sentence in the peniten tiary for two and a half years.' The charge against Mr Felder was that he, Means and his secretary took money to prevent the indict ment and prosecution of Safir and others. Colonel F elder asserted that the money paid to his firm was a legitimate fee for legal services, not for corruption. He, claims that the indictment was returned for political reasons and that he is en tirely innocent of any wrong doing.

It was pointed out here today that <hc dollar reached the peak of its purchasing power when the Underwood tariff was in operation. Senator Underwood, his sup porters here claim, considers that she greatest benefits to all the peo ( pie will come from a proper and j equitable regulation of taxes at the ! customhouses. The Underwood tar iff, on the statute books for nine ’ years, as former Governor Glynn of . New York said, and now being quot ed here, “banished greed from the ■ gates of our ports and wrote justice \ into our tariff schedules.” Os all : the tariffs ever enacted, political ■ leaders here claim, it was the fair- ■ est and best. j In addition to Underwood’s rapid 1 ly increasing strength in the South -1 ern States, where, it is pointed out, he will get! more delegates than any other candidate for the Presidency, political leaders here assert he has developed a remarkable strength in other sections.

HUNT NEA Service Writer WAHINGTON, April 15.—So cial Washington had a shock the other day that left it gasping. “What next?” it breathed, after re covering its voice. “Where will such a course lead ” All the consternation and amaze ment was due to the shattering by Mrs. Coolidge, of the unwritten law that the wife of the president must not accept hospitality in a private home. This is on the theory than the rivalries for the presence of the First Lady at private affairs mighc be embarrassing to her and also that her acceptance or refusal of invi tations always would be subject to interpretation as political as well as social favor. Unwritten social laws, however, do not seem to worry Mrs Coolidge. Anyway, she wanted to attend a luncheon given at the home of Mrs. Willard Saulsbury, where a num ber of her friends in the old Senate set were to be present, and she went. If it broke a precedent, well— maybe the “precedent ought to be broken. She'd try it once, anyway, and see what happened. And despite the bated breath with which the social set view her daring, the First Lady still survives and the government still lives. “Black Jack” Pershing, former chief of the A. E. F., and at pres-> ent “General of the Armies” of the U. S. A., now knows how it feels to be a fugitive. After being in hiding for more than two months, he is living in the open again, without disguise or alias. And he proclaims that it cer tainly does seem good. Pershing went abroad several months ago in order t 0 get quiet and seclusion, which was impossible in Washington, for the writing of 1 his book on the World War. But he found seclusion in Paris as difficult as in Washington. He was an official and social lion. Bids to social affrays of all sorts poured in. He couldn’t with grace decline them, but if he accepted he could do no work. Finally, with a proper amount of ; ostentation and publicity, Pershing left Paris for a period on the Riv , iera. His arrival there was duly an . nounced and pictured. , Then Pershing dropped out of sight and out of the news dispatches. , Paris believed him on ihe Riviera, i the Riviera understood he was some- jwhere about, but v.a;n t sure just where. r The general, however, had doubl ed back on his trail and secreted himself in his quarters in Paris. There for two months, uninterrupteu ' by visits and visitors, he labored away at his writing. Early of a morning, before Paris had yet awakened, he slipped out ;for a brief horseback ride. The rest of the day he spent in seclusion, at work. Back in Washington again—willi the book still far from finished — Pershing would like to hide out again. Now publishers’ agents, rep resentatives of syndicates and of newspapers, who wolud like to “issue” his book for him, trail him day and night. Official duties and social demands Used Kellogg’s Bran 2 months— constipation gone after suffering 3 years Three years of suffering with con stipation. What happiness was his when Kellogg’s Bran, cooked and krumbled, restored his health. But read his letter. “Dear Sirs: . . . this is what I think of your krumbled bran. I would not be without it for anything in the world. . . . for three years I used al! kinds of medicines for constipation, and only got temporary relief. I was advised by a doctor to use Kellogg’s Bran, and since I began using it I don’t have to take pills or anything else. I have used it two months, and xny constipation has left me. I feel better now than I have for three years.” (The original of this letter is on file at the Kellogg Company ; Battle Creek, Mich.) Kellogg’s Bran brings results be cause it is ALL bran.

Remember this; they must have well balanced meals. Their food should contain the right amout of mineral salts. These salts act as bone building material.' Bakings that are made of good plain white flour and baking powder contain the necessary amount of min eral salts. Allow your chil dren to eat heartily of these bakings together with fruits and dairy products. This forms an ideal food balance. When making quick rising breads and pastries such as: biscuits, muffins, cakes, waffles, etc., don’t fail to use Calumet —the economy Baking Powder. It contains more than the ordinary leavening strength—it’s the purest and surest leavener made. That’s why it helps make your flour foods light and easily digested. Millions of mothers use Calumet daily because they are interested in their child ren’s welfare—their present and future health.
