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. REPRESENTATIVES.

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.
