STATE COUNCIL Jr. 0. U. A. HL
Meets in Twentieth Regular Session
—Full Attendance of Representa
tives and a Fine Meeting.
Newnan had the honor of entertain
ing this week the State Council of Jun
ior Order United American Mechanics,
one of Georgia's greatest and most use
ful fraternal organizations, and is proud
of the distinction. A more representa
tive body of earnest, patriotic Geor
gians was never assembled upon any
occasion, and its deliberations were as
interesting as they were inspiring.
About one hundred and seventy-five
representatives attended the sessions,
including officers of the State Council,
and we feel sure none had euuse to
complain of Newnan's hospitality dur
ing their two-days’ stay as our guests.
That their brief visit was a source of
pleasure to our people goes without
saying.
The sessions were held in Elks’ hall,
and when the Council was called to or
der Tuesday morning all officers of the
organization were in their appointed
places, viz: Benj. S Symons, State
Councilor; W. R. Johnson, State Vice-
Councilor; J E. Loveless, State Secre
tary; 0. H. Puckett, State Treasurer;
A. B. Coogler, State Conductor; John
W. Kersey, State Warden; D. J. Bailey,
State Inside Sentinel; W. J. Arnold,
State Outside Sentinel; Rev. W. E.
Porter, State Chaplain. The Bession
opened with devotional exercises, con
ducted by Rev. W. E. Porter, State
Chaplain. Then followed the installa
tion of officers and representatives to
the State Council who were elected but
not present at the last regular meeting
in 1913. Roll-call was next in order, af
ter which some time was devoted to a
discussion of certain proposed changes
in the by-laws.
The report of State Councilor Sy
mons showed that nearly one thousand
new members had affiliated with the
order during the past year, the total
State membership now exceeding (j 000
At the afternoon session new officers
for the ensuing two years were elected
as follows: Wesley R. Johnson, Au
gusta, State Councilor; Rev. A. E.
Sansburn, Atlanta, State Vice-Council
or; A. B. Coogler. Riverdale, State
Conductor; D. J. Bailey, Griffin, State
Warden; O. F. Allen, Newnan, State
Inside Sentinel; W. M. Haynie, Newnan,
State Outside Sentinel; O. H. Puckett,
Atlanta. State Treasurer; Rev. W. E.
Porter, Brunswick, State Chaplain;
John W. Kersey, Newnan, and M. H.
Abbott, Atlanta, Representatives to
National Council.
Revision of the by-laws was taken up
Wednesday morning »s unfinished busi
ness, and occupied a good portion of
the forenoon.
At 11 a. m. Hon. John H. Noyes, of
Plainstuw, N. H., National Vice-Coun
cilor, w is introduced to the body. He
made a strong address, enunciating the
principles upon which the Junior Order
of United American Mechanics stood
and proclaiming the reforms for which
the order had contended ever since its
organization. He dwelt at length upon
the efforts that nad been made during
successive sessions of Congress to se
cure legislation by that body to restrict
foreign immigration. Said that repre
sentatives of the order had labored un
ceasingly to this end in Washington,
and succeeded in getting a bill through
both branches of Congress during Taft's
administration, but that the President
vetoed it; that a similar measure passed
by the last Congress met the same fate
at the hands of President Wilson.
However, he was not discouraged, and
would continue the fight until both
Congress and the Pre ident, whoever
he may be, will recognize the justice
and necessity of enacting Buch legis
lation as will effectually check the flood
of immigration that has for many years
demoralized labor conditions in this
country and robbed American born citi
zens of their rights and opportunities
as artisnns in various lines of industry
now practically closed against them. It
was a strong and forceful presentation
Atlanta, was a cause which should have the sup-
M, Carpenter por[ Q f ever y patriotic American, and
made a deep impression upon the near
ly two hundred members of the order
who heard me address.
At t.he afternoon session Wednesday
the newly elected officers were installed
by National Vice Councilor Noyes with
impressive ceremonies.
The following resolution was adopted
just before adjournment, to-wit:
‘‘Resolved, That the thanks and ap
preciation of the State Council be ex
tended to the local committee on en
tertainment; also, to Prof. Chas. Astin,
who composed the songs rendered at
the public mpeting Tuesday evening;
also, to the three little girls, Agnes
Allen, Ezelle Yates and Frances Astin,
who rendered the songs upon that oc
casion; also, to the B. P. O. E. organ
ization for the use of their hall; and to
Mayor Burdett and the citizens of New
nan generally for their numerous cour
tesies to this body and for their gener
ous hospitality.”
Rome was chosen as the next place
of meeting, on the second Tuesday in
August, 1917.
Tuesday evening at 6 o’clock, at Hay
Park, the visitors were entertained
with a barbecue—such a feast as only
Starling Carpenter can prepare, and
for which Coweta is famed from one
end of the Slate to the other. Mem
bers of Newnan Council and their
families were hosts for the occasion,
ami no detail was overlooked that would
contribute in any way to the enjoy
ment of their guests. This feature of
the series of entertainments planned for
the pleasure of the visitors was in the
hands of a local committee composed us
follows: T. G Farmer, jr., L. Turner,
C. J. Owens, O. F. Allen, J. W. Ker
sey, J. 1). Brewster, W. L. Stallings,
W‘. C. Wright, W. M. Haynie, T. E.
Collough, H. F. Gooddy, J. R. Parker,
Porter Payne, J. R. Hyde, J. T. Wal
drop, E. J. Kite, G. W. Fuller. How
well they did their part was evidenced
by the unrestrained enjoyment of the
visitors. About six hundred people at
tended the barbecue.
Tuesday night there was a public
meeting at the court-house, the exer
cises including an interesting musi
cal programme by Astin’s orchestra,
songs hy little Misses Agnes Allen,
Ezelle Yates and Frances Astin, anti
addresses by Rev. John S. Wilder and
State Councilor Benj. S. Symons, of
Savannah, and Hon. W. C. Wright and
Col. W. L Stallings, of this city. A
large crowd was present, and the oc
casion proved to be one of the most en
joyable events of the week.

Ford Town (Jar 640
No speedomettv included in this year's

Thcie can be no assurance given against an advance in these prices at any
time. We guarantee, however, that there will be no reduction in these prices
prior to Aug. I, 1916.
Profit-Sharing With Retail Buyers
On Aug. 1, 1914, we made the announcement that if we could make and
sell at retail 300,000 Ford cars between Aug. I, 1914, and Aug. 1, 1915, we would
share profits with the retail purchasers, to the extent of from $40 to $60 on each
car. We have sold over 300,000 Ford cars in the lime specified, and profit-shar
ing checks of $50 each will be distributed ns rapidly as possible after Aug. 15,
1915. Retail purchasers who have not yet mailed us their profit-sharing cou
pons, properly endorsed, should do so without delay.
Ottr plan to profit-share with retail purchasers of Ford cars during 1‘714-1915 lias been most
successful. We thoroughly believe in it, but realizing the uncertainty of conditions generally
makes it advisable to defer any announcement of future profit-sharing until a later date.
We are, however, confident of our inability to reduce costs for several months, and there
fore can offer no profit-sharing for cars delivered during August, September and October, 1915.

“Drive to the Right”
There’s a new law in traffic
That’s just hove in sight,
So keep your eyes open
And drive to the right;
The signs, you can’t miss ’em,
They’re up everywhere—
We guess there’s a dozen
Around the square;
So when you are speeding,
Daytime or night,
Why, please observe closely.
And drive to the right.
“Drive to the right”
Is the Bong we should hum;
The motto is dandy
In more ways than one;
If business ia bad
Don’t complain of the times,
Just keep on going
And think of the signs;
If amusement you want,
Don’t worry a mite—
Just visit The Halcyon,
And “drive to the right.”
A man’s temper may improve with
disuse.
