Being Discussed —The
Funds Might Be Rais
ed by Popular Sub
scription.
Members of the American Legion,
Carl Boyd Post, meet at the city hall
Friday evening at 8 o’clock for an im
portant session. Poss.bly the most in
teresting feature of the meeting will be

members of any state in the union. This
cup. which is now on display in Ma
rietta. will be brought to Cartersville
Friday by Mr. Evins Strickland, and

of members of the local post of the
American Legion that they can secure
from the government a caisson and
limber, which is one of the monster
four and a half-inch guns use and by the
boys in pushing the Huns back across
the Rhine. . T
These gfuns can be purchased by Le
gion posts for S3O each, which with the
freight added, would run its cost to S6O.
This is a gun that cost the government
$1,600 but is being disposed of. and the
low price Is made only to the legion
It has been pointed out that the local
boys should secure one of these mon
ster guns, and place it either on the
house lawn of the park, and
their friends believe funds sufficient to
secure It could be raised by popular
subscription.

BIBLE TEACHES EVOLUTION,
SAYS MRS. CORRA HARRIS
Would Instruct Chil
dren in Ten Command
ments, Says Noted Au
thoress-Had Big Time
With Georgia Editors.
By MEDORA FIELD PERKERSON, in
Atlanta Journal.
"I not only believe in evolution, T
have seen involution. Whoever be
lieves in progress, the improvement of.
any species, whether the human animal
or any other animal, believes in evo
lution. Genesis teaches it. On the
sixth day. along with other animals,
God created man. “Male and female,
created He them.’ On the seventh day
He rested. We do not. know how many
hundreds of thousands of years In
length that seventh day was, but after
that He made Adam, and breathed the
breath of life into him. This made
Adam different from the men created
on the sixth day. The breath of life
breathed into him was spiritual life.
This was the beginning of man on
earth above the purely animal line. It
Is a biblical record of the processes of
evolution in man.*'
This statement was made by Mrs.
Corra Hvrls, famous Georgia writer,
in answer to the question. "Do you be
lieve <n evolution?" Discussing this
question, which has aroused a storm of
controversy throughout the country, as
to whether the theory of evolution and
Darwinism should be taught in the
public schools, Mrs. Harris continued;
"As for me, 1 would not dwell so much
cn evolution in the public schools as I
would on the Ten Commandments.
Formerly the home was the school of
rel.glon, where children learned to be
lieve In God from the example of their
parents If this branch of education
must be transferred to the common
schools it should be taught as nearly
as possible with the same simplicity
and sincerity with which our mothers
formerly taught us the law of God, obe
dience to it, faith in His power and
rnerccy. and His judgments.
tkinning Cat With the Mind.
“All this talk of evolution seems to
me as silly and belated as the quarrels
saints used to have about doctrines,
missing the spirit of Christ, fussing
about the meaning of such words as
‘bapt'dso.’ A far more Important prob
lems is to establish again faith and
love upon earth in the hearts of men
and women toward God and toward
each other.
"We think it smart to get away from
THE CARTERSVILLE NEWS
the idea of God,” continued Mrs. Har
ris. “We consider it an indication of
intelligence, but the man who thinks
himself away from God thinks himself
away from life, peace, joy, the content,
ment of old age ar.d the courage which
carries him through the stom and stress
period of life.
“The modern way of skinning the cat
with your mind and falling in;o agnos
ticism, atheism or the innocuous des
sutude of spiritualism is a folly that
leads to no wisdom. It simply gets you
back to the dust along with other ver

ty Plan.
J. W. Vaughan, president of the Bank

sociation, W. G. Sutllve, of Savannah.
W. O. Foote, a prominent business
man of Atlanta, has been named as
chairman and In accepting the chair
man ship of the plan, had the following
to say:
"Georgia business men have given
Georgia farmers free advice and free
sympathy long enough,” declared Mr.
Foote, in accepting the chairmanship ef
the committee. "The time has come
now when Georgia business men must
take off their coats and get to work
actually helping; the Georgia farmer to
help himself.”
“We know that the plan of the ’cow,
hog and hen,' and all round co-opera
tion embraced by the Turner county
plan, and carried forward by the Geor
gia Association will put the farmer on
a sound economic basis. It is not an
experiment. It has been thoroughly
tried out, and it will work. It Is up to
us to support the program of the Geor.
gla Association, and It is up to the suc
cessful business men to lend their abil
ity and make the plan a success.

they must have before they are
to play. Score cards and membership
cards have been furnished by Gilreath-
Champion Drug Cos., and can be secured
rom T. J. Champion or Colquitt Finley,
treasurer, upon payment of dues, $lO.
This movement should receive the
hearty support of everyone in Carters
ville, as golf is fast becoming the great
American sport, and every place the
size of Cartersville now has a golf
course and a club house. The business
and professional men should take ad
vantage of this opportunity and not
only join, but play. With an excellent
swimming pool within a few feet of the
last hole it is good to finish off a golf
game with a swim.
If this movement is successful, as it
should be. it will eventually result in
a clubhouse and lockers.

TRIP TO ATHENS
BY COUNTY BOYS
NOW ARRANGED
County Agent Announc
es All Details Have
Been Completed For a
Most Profitable Trip,
Leaving Here Tuesday
Morning.
Boys from all sections of Bartow
county have written County Agent Cox
this week, expressing a wish to join
the party of hoys now ueing go,ten to
gether for a spec al trip to Athens nsxt
week
The party plans to leave Canersville
Tuesday morning at 7 o’clock, and Mr.
Cox urges all who are planning to go
to be on hand promptly a-t that hour.
The only question now being consid
ered is the transportation problem. Al
ready, Mr. Cox says, more boys have
signified an intention of going than he
has cars promised. However, he be
lieves that when auto owners learn they
have an opportun ty. to serve these
worthy boys of the county, they will lie
quick to offer cars in ample numbers
to carry them to Athens.
The boys are expected to carry with
them a tin plu.o, knife and fork, cup.
blanket for cover at night, a couple of
towels, comb and brush, soap, pair of
overalls. Every boy should also carry
along lunch for Tuesday, but the other
meals while away will be provided for
with the funds derived from the $7 each
boy will pay to help defray the neces
sary actual expenses of the trip.
The party will visit Humphreys dairy
farm at Acworth, the Federal Reserve
bank, as guests of Hon. Joseph S. Mc-
Cord. governor of the instltut on; a
large dairy and poultry farm in the
edge of DeKalb county, close to Beca
tnr; Stone Mountain, and arrive in
Athens about 6 O'clock Tuesday after
noon.
Going into special quarters at the
State College of Agriculture, the pro
gram arranged for the benefit of the
Bariow county boys begins Tuesday
evening at 7:30 o’clock, and trom then
until Friday night at 10 o’clock the
boys will be given instructions in a
# hort course that will be of great and
lasting benefit, as well as one of great
pleasure.
The party leaves Athens at 8 o’clock
Saturday morning, and plans to reach
Cartersville at 2 o’clock Saturday aft
ernoon.
As stated above, the only thing now
lacking is means of transportation. If
you have a car and would like for your
car to be of service to a party of four
or five boys, please notify Mr. Cox at
once. He is working hard to make the
program a success, and of practical
benefit to the boys.
Owners of cars can assist him mate
rially, and he feels confident they will
do so, once they realize what a great
s’ervice they can render. Therefore,
get in touch with Mr. Cox immediately

HEAPS BOUQUETS
ON WARREN DODD
Rightly Says He Is a Cit
izen of Whom Whole
Community Is Mighty
Proud—Tribune-News
One of Best Papers in
State, He Declares.
Cartersville, Ga., Aug. 1, 1923.
Dear Mr. Editor:
In conversation recently with one of
the most progressive and valued citi
zens of Cartossville, we each agreed
that in the hurry and rush of life's
sLain today, we had as individuals, and
as a town and community fallen too
much in the habit of taking for grant
ed that a good deed a good work, and
a good Lfe was its own reward, and
culled lor no expression from us, in
words, of our love, and the assurance
of our appreciation of its worth and
uplift to us, or to the community.
That too often we let a good man. or
a good woman come without telling
him we are glad, and too often let him
go without telling him we are sad, and
wish he would reconsider and remain
to build with us, and live wilh us, and
love with us. rejoice or suffer with us.
That too often we see a boy, or a girl
take the wrong road in life and go into
sorrow, or sin and ruin, without lend
ing our hand to check and showing
him our love to restrain.
And that, too often we see him, or
her strike the highway, with elevation
of thought and purpose to attain the
high place and accomplish the worth-
while thing, without showing him we
are following him with our interest
and have laurels in our hearts to be
stow on him, and help in our hands to
give, if he falters in the way.
And as we thus talked, we each said
we would try to be more watchful and
give the glad hand, and speak some
word of appreciation, when we saw a
fellow spending himself to do well In
his business and in his life, and life of
the town that we all love and feel ia
the best town in all the land.

CALHOUN HERE
FRIDAY FOR
ANOTHER GAME
Complete Schedule For
Month of August, An
nounced by Manage
ment, Shows Some In
teresting Contests May
Be Expected.
Calhoun comes here Friday after
noon for a game that promises to be
one of the best of several played with
this strong team from the Gordon
county capital.
Havlhg been strengthened by the ad
dition of several players, the Calhoun
team is coming down for a victory
Friday afternoon, but Manager Cope
says they will have to fight mighty
hard to get the scalp of the Colts this
time.
Beginning with Friday’s game the
admission price will be 50 cents for
adults and 25 cents for children, with
the colored admiss'On at 25 cents.
This slight raise in price is found
necessary in order for the team to
meet expenses, and keep up the high
class of baseball given the fans so far
this season.
it Is expected the fans will cheerfully
“chip in" this extra dime for each
game, rather than make larger dona
tions later, as has been the custom
heretofore.
The management is trying to keep
affairs on a business basis this season,
and finds it necessary to announce a
50-Cent admission price for the re
mainder of the games.
Fine Schedule Arranged,
On Saturday of this week, the Colts
go to Tate for a game, while on Tues
day of next week they play here, prob
ably the strong Western Electric Com
pany outfit from Atlanta.
On Wednesday the boys go to Cal
houn, and to Buford next Thursday,
playing Calhoun here Friday, the 10th.
They play Marietta there on Satur
day, the 11th, and on Tuesday, Au
gust 14th, the Buford team comes here
for their first game of the season on
local diamond. This Bhould draw
a record crowd.
Friday, August 17th, Cartersville
plays Marietta here, and goes to Tate
ihe next day, Saturday, the 18th.
August 22, 23 and 24, the Colts play
Buford on her home ground, and re
turning. they stop in Marietta Satur

Three Straight Games Here.
Ou August 20, h, 30th and 31st, the
last Wednesday, Thursday tt nd Friday
in August, Buford comes here for a
three-game series. This series will no
doubt be worth while from many an-
gles, and Cope says his boys are due
to get at least two of the three.
With the Cartersville and Buford
teams running neck and neck for win
ning honors this season, being recog
nized as the leading teams of North
Georgia, overflow crowds should be tt
attendance at all these games.
Marietta Is Winner
Over Cartersville, 4 to 3
Marietta from Cartersville, 4 to
3, Tuesday in a well played game that
took ten innings to decide the winner.
Stevens, the East Point star, was on
t the mound for Cartersville and McKin
ney. last year’s pitching ace for River
dale kas flinging them over for Mari
etta.
* i These two boys are life-long friends,
but that made no difference in this
game, and they staged a pitcher's bat
tle that was well worth seeing.
Cy Hawkins played like a house afire,
and wantd to put all the men out at
first base, but Carl Eubanks,the old At.
lanta and Augusta catcher, encouraged
McKinney to strike out eight of the op
posing players.
Tete Boswell and Lew Hawkins also
played great ball for Marietta.
The batteries were: Stevens and
Bryant for Cartersville; McKinney and
Eubanks for Marietta
