SATURDAY AFTERNOON, 14. 1924 ' JOYNER SPEAKS HI MEETING in ALBANY Amefricus Pastor Assists in Pre paratory Meetings Now Be ing Held There BY H. WOODCOCK ALBANY, June 14.—The Rev. W. A. Joyner, Americus paster, speaking at the home of Dr. anl Mrs. G. C. Doliver Thursday night, at the mid-week service of the Christian church, gave Albany a few nuts to crack and then pre ceeded to crack a few himself as he pointed out the bigness of the coming revival and the smallness of the people who are planning it. The Christian congregation will start a revival in a tent on the former Gypsy Smith site June 18. Rev. Joyner told the nearly 20 persons present that the keynotes of the feeting should be love, and prayer. He explained that the coming campaign was not planned in any spirit of animosity, but ra ther by a spirit of love. “There is not a desire that we should antag onize the splendid people who are already in this field,” he went on, or that we desire to occupy terri tory already occupied; such things are far from our thoughts but we are actuated by love for others; bv love of those who are not already in the kingdom of God. “Then there is the desire that we ar disciples may worship with those who have ’the same hopes and desires and with those of the sam? faith that we love. Wo want to give this meeting to the city of Albany in a spirit of love and in a spirit of greater devotion to all and not in any spirit of division. In our work we invite all denomina tions to aid us and we feel that we will attract those to our meetings with no church affiliation.” In addition to the pastor, others from Americus present were Miss Lurline Wall, Miss Martha Wall, Miss Dorothy Baugh and Miss Ma ry Helen Joyner. There will be a pre-revival rally in the Minor auditorium at 3:30 on Sunnay afternoon when Rev. Joy ner will speak on “Prepare Ye The Way of the Lord.” NEW STREET CREATED IN UPTOWN ATLANTA ATLANTA, June 14.—Asothei street has been added to Atlanta’s “uptown” district with the build ing of an elevated way over the viaduct between Broad and White hall streets.

Iby her own charm and personality I for the social shortcomings of her silent partner. Cards to Mrs. Coolidge’s spring parties have been as much in de mand as tickets to the Democrats convention. Any good Washing tonian would cheerfully have for feited seats to the Cleveland conven tion, for instance, in exchange for admittance to one of these affairs. And to one who has experienced both conventions and garden parties it must be admitted the lure of the latter is the most enthralling. Take the latest of these “parties,” for instance. Even a, dashing thunder-shower which drenched the grounds at the very hour the red-coated marine band was tuning up for the festivities, could not dampen the enthusiasm of the invited guests. By auto and taxicab, or on foot ' THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER ’ raincoats and umbrellas, they ■ came, full strength. Shifting her plans to suit the weather’s whim, Mrs. Coolidge threw open the whole lower floor of the White House, placed the marine band in the great entrance hallway, and carried the affair through with out a hitch. Instead of greeting her guests on the lawn, she and the president shook hands with all comers in th‘e . big East Room and bade thorn, ■ “make themselves at home.” The party was a democratic as- ■ fair, even though Coolidge is a Re , publican. There were more fedoras i and derbies than “plug” hats in the r checkrooms. And the plain bus>- 1 ness sack-suits on the masculine , guests outnumbered the long-tail i ed “frocks.” Most of the diplomats, of course, t and their secretaries and attaches, wore the formal afternoon swallow tails. So did Secretary Hughes, by way of being a diplomat himself. But Jim Davis, secretary of Üb or, simply put a red carnation in the buttonhole of his Business suit and felt all dressed up. Edwin Denby, former secretary of navy, wearing the business suit, of a business man, seemed to enjoV being bhek under the executive roof. General Sawyer was there, too; in correct afternoon garb, not in the uniform he so long wore with pride. Lady Isabella lloM&rd, wife of the British ambassador, made her first appearance at a large gather ing since her arrival in Washing ton, and was a center of attention. Her dress? Oh, yes; black velvet with touches of purple, and a chin chilla collar. - - - - ----- ■ -I - . ■ ■■ .- ■ ... .
