WOMAN FARMER’S
EXHIBIT AT FAIR
DRAWS CROWD
Visitor! to the agricultural build
ing out at the Southeastern fair
never fall to stop at the exhibit of
Mrs. C. A. Parsons, of Ramer, Ala.,
whose individual farm display won
first prize In this competition. Mrs.
Parsons started her career as a
farmer three years ago. She didn’t
know the A-B-C’s of agriculture, but
she didn’t let that worry her. In
three years time she has developed
her sixty-flve-acre farm to the point
where it is considered one of the
finest examples of diversified farm
ing in the entire south. Os the sixty
five acres, only thirty are in culti
vation.
in her exhibit Mrs. Parsons shows
twenty varieties of corn, sixteen va
rieties of peas, six varieties of pea
nuts, five varieties of sorghum, three
varieties of sweet potatoes, two va
rieties of Irish potatoes, not to men
tion pepers, eggplants and vegeta
bles of all kinds.
There are 350 jars and tin cans
of fruits, vegetables, preserves, jel
lies, jams, syrup and similar prod
ucts, all put up by Mrs. Parsons in
her “leisure moments” (if she has
any). Then, too, there are displays
of oats, wheat, barley, rye and other
small grains, while a sample of high
grade cotton occupies a prominent
place in the exhibit. Mrs. Parsons
has produced a bale and a half to
the acre cotton patch.
The exhibit of this woman farmer
is attracting much attention not only
from the fair visitors, but from the
agricultural experts attending the ex
po siti on as judges.
Midway Elephant at
Fair Breaks Loose,
Raids ‘Hot Dog’ Stand
Joy-seekers along the big midway
it the Southeastern Fair were given
ihrills a-plenty Tuesday afternoon
when Mrs. Gyp,” said to be' the
world’s most intelligent elephant,
and one of the Johnny J. Jones at
tractions, broke away from her stake
-nd chain and proceeded to stroll
down to the joy plaza and look the
show over.
A “hot dog” stand looked good to
her, and after tearing the canvas
cover away, overturning the stove,
and routing the proprietor, she com
pleted the havoc by consuming the
entire stock of choice fresh meats,
as well as several pounds of candy,
and a quality of potash and toilet
soap. Her next objective was a
peanut stand. Causing the complete
stock to disappear in a pair of
minutes, she kicked over the stand
ind started to the next attraction.
Meanwhile, her baby elephant—
iust a few weks old, had set up a
’ustly wail, which attracted "Mrs.
Gyp’s” keeper. She was back at her
*take and chain in ten minutes, and
V» ednesday a squad of workmen
were preparing a reinforced coop for
he "lady.”

kM~V HENRIETTA RODMAN
NEW YORK.—“The trouble with
schools and education in general to
day is that out of 25,000 teachers,
twenty-three orily are allowed to
think,” says Henrietta Rodman, the
teacher who, a few years ago, while
teaching at Wadleigh High school,
New York, got herself in the public
eye by taking a stand against the
*time-honored .opinion that teachers
should not be mothers, also.
“A teacher should have personali
ty,” she continues, “liberty to think,
and then go about it in her own way.
A teacher is now both the voice of
God and the stupidest sort of mech
anism. Each teacher should be dif
ferent in herself and himself, and
teach accordingly.
“Then, too, I believe in a great
variety of teachers. Each child
should pass through as many teach
ers’ hands as the child has moods.
And no teacher shquld stay in the
room all the time, nor should the
teacher’s word be law.”
Miss Rodman believes a teacher
should never solve for a child what
he must know for himself. In her
conception classes should be made
up of clubs, governed by the chil
dren. A teacher should be called in
only as an expert adviser.
Soul-Stirring Word.
“Teaching in itself is one of the
most beautiful and satisfactory con
tacts we have with the new genera
tion,” says Miss Rodman. “The word
school should be a soul-stirring
word, not the dead, gray thing that
it is.
"There the seven steps in the de
velopment of the seven loves should
be taught:
First —Self-love.
Second —Domestic love.
Third—Romantic love.
Fourth—Friendship.
Fifth—Patriotism.
Sixth—Love of humanity.
Eleventh—Religion.
“We all have the first, most of us
the second and third; the fourth to a
certain degree, and the fifth as a sort
“Unreasoning Scare" to
Blame for Cotton Slump,
States Henry G. Hester
NEW ORLEANS, Oct., 21.—1 n a
statement prepared at the Instance
of the cotton exchange directors
made public Wednesday night,
Henry G. Hester, secretary of the
exchange and for fifty years regard
ed as an international authority on
matters pertaining to cotton market
ing, declared there is "no reason for
rushing for federal financial aid” and
asserted there was "nothing the
matter with the south beyond an
unreasoning scare in cotton.”
The statement, prepared "for the
benefit and encouragement of those
who are not fully informed,” fol
lows:
“The drastic decline that has oc
curred in cotton since the first of
August, amounting to nearly . S9O
a bale, or about 48 per cent, has
1 een mainly due to the pressure to
sei lon a shrinking market, under
mining confidence of both sellers
and consumers, accentuating the
fears of the farmer aifd increasing
the reluctance of the latter until
*hey practically abandoned the mar
ket except at constant concessions,
which in the aggregate probably
constitute the greatest drop that
has ever taken place in the staple
in any like period. In the past ten
weeks more than a million bales of
spot cotton have literally been
‘thrown overboard’ without rhyme
or reason. Nearly three-fourths of
the Texas ginnings to September 25
have been rushed to market and
while other sections have sold more
sparingly, the reported sales at
three leading Texas centers have
amounted to more than 800,000
bales. Futures have perforce fol
lowed spots, the pressure having
been accentuated by sales to hedge
spots.
“Tight Money” Blamed
"Various theories have been ad
vanced for the ‘scare,’ . mainly the
question of financing, unfavorable
attitude of the federal reserve bank,
and tight money. Neither of these,
however, sfhould reasonably have
precipitated a practical panic. Calm
thinkers considers there was no more
reason for rushing for federal aid
than during the ‘buy-a-bale’ period
of 1914. ”'hey argue, and justly
so, that we marketed In part and
carried over without outside aid
the heavy remnant of the most stu
pendous crop "reduced that year
in the face of the inauguration of
a world-wide war and ‘at a time
that the south was infinitely poorer
than at present. They knew then not
only that cotton was selling many
cents per pound below the cost
of production, but that it was bring
ing less than its actual market val
ue, even in face of adverse European
war conditions and the promise of
an abnormally large production
(which finally proved to be 17,000,-
000 bales) and they knew that the
panic could only be temporary. War
or no war, the world needed our
cotton and that if the channels of
trade were blocked for a time, a
way would be found to open them
in the near future. And, what did
we dp? We marketed that year
more than, was ever marketed in
any year in the history of the trade
and if we did not get as much for
our bales as we should have done,
we laid the foundation for an up
ward trend that brought more
money into the south, fairly earned,
in the years that followed than had
ever before been obtained in our
history.
"Why, then, should we, after four
seasons in which our raw cotton,
including the seed, has exceeded in
I value $7,970,000,000, balk at carrying
i few million bales pending a tem
porary lull in demand? Has not that
very lull been lengthened by the
senseless and unreasoning fears of
producers? Os course, everybody
knows that the governmental efforts
, to reduce the high cost of living
have exercised some influence, but
chat has been by no means entirely
j responsible for the cotton panic.
i ‘‘Let us look at the government
I figures tor the months of August
and September, 1920. In face of all
i the talk about reduction of consump
i tion, we find that the mills north and
south consumed of American cotton
from August I to September 30, 884,-
000 bales, against 943,000 the same
time last year, a decrease of only
59.000 bales. This, then, was not
where the shoe pinched, as far as
of habit. Some attain the love of
humanity, but few have the emo
tional mechanism required for the
seventh —religion—a oneness with
the universe, —a love of all that we
see and cannot see, all that we know
and cannot know.
New Problems in Life
“Education is only the struggle to
live beautifully. What are we do
ing about it? Teaching Chinese
ideals and perpetuating the past.
Here am I still teaching the Sir
Rodger de Coverly papers, when I
would like to be teaching Herrick
and Conrad and Chekhov —and I’ve
been doing it for twenty years. When
the schools first took up the De Cov
erly papers the ideal was gentleness
and simplicity—our vital problems
now are both more dynamic and
civic. Yet we are still teaching from
books whose authors were afraid of
life and the truth.”
The most important class, in Miss
Rodman’s opinion, should be the
class in politics. All grades should
be taught politics and the duty to
the community. There should be
more moving pictures in class and
less ancient history. Movies could
be used, she believes, for the teach
ing of literature, history, painting,
art of all kinds.
domestic consumption was concerned.
When the mills became informed of
the growin< fears of the southern
producers of a decline in values they
fell back on their supplies of raw
cotton, and during the two months
used up 436,000 bales of their re
serve stocks Thus, an July 31, the
census said mills north and south
held 1,209,000 bales of American lint
cotton -while on October 1 the sanre
authority gave them a total of only
773,000 bales. In September, in face
of the panicky feeling that was
spreading in the spot market, the
southern mills consumed 281,000
bales lint cotton and they held re
maining but about 283,000 bales, or
about one month’s supply.
"Comparing me situation now with

YONKERS MAN
BEATEN FOR AID
TO S. C. GIRL
PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 20.—A man
giving the name of Peter McMahon,
of Yonkers, N. Y., with his wrists
scarred by a rope and his back bear
ing the marks of a whip, left a
northbound Pennsylvania railroad
'train here early today and sought
the police for medical attention. He
says he was seized and whipped on
Monday night a few miles outside of
Trenton, S. C., after he attempted
to assist Miss Florence Powell, of
Aiken, S. C., in a settlement which
involved a division of her father’s
estate.
His underclothing was stiff with
blood and besides lash marks his
body and neck bore the marks of
ropes with which he said his tor
mentors had attempted to hang him.
Police here are investigating his sto
ry of attempted lynching and mis
treatment.
McMahon, who is 55 years old, said
he believed I is assailants were adopt
ing methods of the Ku Klux Klan.
He said he was seized when he left
the train at Trenton, S. C., and was
driven into the country in an auto
mobile. At the point where his mis
treatment occurred, he said, eight
men wearing white hoods, gathered
around and beat him.
“They threw a rope around my
neck, then tried to put the other end
over a tree, but it would not reach,’
McMahon said at the fKihnneman
hospital todny. “After a severe
beating tb* tften told me they had
decided to let me go.”
“They blindfolded me,” McMahon
said, “putting a hood over my head
exactly like the ones they wore, then
led me to an automobile and we
drove to a house where I was fed.
They called a physician to examine
my wounds.
“Then they drove me to Denmark,
S. C. They gave me money to buy
my ticket to New York, after mak
ing me promise I would not return.
All the way from Denmark to Wash
ington, some one came into the car
occasionally, and, after looking at
me retired into another coach. This
man acted as guard to see that I did
not leave the train.”
McMahon said he was too weak to
leave the train at AVashington. He
told the police he was a friend and
adviser of Miss Powell. He said her
father lives at Aiken and is president
of a bank. ~ ,
Recently, according to McMahon,
the father made a division of his
property :«<iong his children. Miss
Florence Powell s share was *50,000.
"I did not believe that sufficient,
he said, “and she and I went to Ai
ken last week to see if we could not
get a better share for her.”
McMahon described his movements
in South Carolina and the feeling en
gendered by the interest he took in
the case which resulted in the al
leged mistreatment.
McMahon also said that when one
of the men who beat him asked if he
would sign a paper Miss Pow
ell was incompetent to handle her
own or her father’s aff airs, he refus
ed, and was beaten with clubs. A
rope was tied around nis neck he
said, and he was dragged for a long
Millions of Spindles
Are Idle in Russia
Under Soivet Regime
LONDON. —Russia’s great pre-war
cotton industry has suffered to such
an extent during the revolution that
it is doubtful whether many of the
mills ever will be able to operate
again, says Sir Charles Macara, an
English authority in the world s cot
ton trade, in an interview fn the
Yorkshire Post.
Based upon information obtained
from aa Englishman who recently
returned from Russia, where for
fourteen yeaps he was the manager
of a large cotton factory near Mos
cow, Sir Charles estimates that oi
the ’9,000,000 spn.dles running in Rus
sia before the revolution not more
than 200,000 or 300,000 are now op-
The experiences of the English
manager of the Moscow factory were
told as an example of the methods
employed bv revolutionists in deal

trial assets, the , text 'h-f acto, *'esin
the Moscow district. This particular
mill carried on all the processes from
cotton spinning to the finished prod
uct, 17,000 workers having been em
ployed under normal operating con
ditions.
When the Bolsheviki assumed pow
er the whole cotton industry was na
tionalized. At every mill committees
were formed and finally, in October,
1919 a decree was issued that all
who had been connected with the
former owners would have to leave.
WPh the experts gone the mill stop
ped After a time attempts were
made to re-start it, but it was almost
impossible to obtain raw cotton.
Small quantities were obtained,
which, after being diluted with 7b
per cent waste, was put through the
processes. .
The machinery now is in a paa
state, in such a state, in fact, that it
would be almost impossible to oper
ate the factory property, according to
th.* information given Sir Charles.
Whenever machine are damaged oth
er machines are denuded for parts to
repair them.
Sir Charles stated that there was
little possibility of English workmen
going to Russia for employment in
textile factories. Mills in Germany
and Austria were turning out only
from 25 to 30 per cent of the normal
production, he said, and English
workers faced the almost impossible
task of making up for the four and a
half years’ stoppage of textile manu
factare owing to the war.
Hard Job to Locate
Trousers to Fit This
200-Pound Youngster
NEW YORK. —Finding a pair of
trousers big enough to fit Gustave
Blazer, of No. 426 East 17th street,
Bronx, who weighs about 200 pounds
although he is only! eight years old.
proved a difficult task for the Chil
dren’s Society, when Gustave was
taken into its charge on a warrant
alleging he was without proper
guardianship and needed new cloth-
After the neighborhood stores had
been scoured for ready-made cloth
ing without success, Peter Hughes,
a six-foot, 240-pound fireman with
Engine Company No. 60, across the
street from the Bronx quarters of
the society, volunteered with a pair
of trousers which, with the legs
rolled up, covered Gustave adequate

The boy’s parents, Jacob and Fan

a year, according to Officer Abraham
Michaels, and the mother has kept
the boy at home, fearing the father
would take him if he went out to

Moonshiners Said
To Be Cutting Prices
MOULTRIE, Ga„ Oct. 20.—Moon
shiners and bootleggers around Moul
trie have joined in the general price
cutting movement, if rumors on the
streets and statements made by the
initiated are to be believed. “Bottled
in barn.” or just plain south Georgia
“stump.” is now selling at the fac
tories at $9 the gallon, against sl2,
the former price. When it is deliv
ered in Moultrie it is quoted at sl2,
against sl6.
The reduced prices went into ef
fect during the latter part of last
week when the general financial
stringency cut business, it is stated.
There has also been a drop in rye
whisky which is smuggled into Flor
ida ports and brought into south
Georgia by bootleggers, good brands
being quoted at S7O a case, or less
than $6 a quart, which represents a
decline of nearly 100 per cent in this
class of bottled goods.

folks about California’s luscious raisins. She’s prepared to furnish
raisin recipes for all dishes and drinks save one alone—-raisin jack or

Plot Uncovered for
Freeing Prisoners and
Dynamiting Prison
KINGSTON, Ont. —A plot to effect
the wholesale escape of prisoners in
Portsmouth Penitentiary and then
blow up the prison, with nitro
glycerin has been thwarted here.
Prison officials, acting on a warn
ing that an attempt would be made
to free the convicts, tore down por
tions of the penitentiary wall and
uncovered a store or rifles, shot
guns and ammunition, with enough
of the explosive to have destroyed
the structure.
Authorities who made the discov
ery declared their belief that the plot
was about to be put into execution,
prisoners freed, keepers slain and
the prison itself blown up.
Although no official account of the
conspiracy has being given, it is
known that suspicions of the prison
authorities recently were aroused.
They began an investigation which
resulted in laying bare what Is de
clared to be the most daring attempt
at jailbreaking ever discovered in
Canada.
The investigation is being center
ed on discovering what agency t suc
ceeded in bringing in the arms' and
nitro-glycerin,e This could not have
been effected by inmates of the pris
on, officials say.
Four convicts, known to be ex
ceptionally dangerous, have been
placed in solitary confinement. Sev
eral of these previously escaped,
but were retaken.
Fasts Three Days While
Locked Up in Boxcar
NEW YORK.—Knocks sounded
from a locked and sealed freight
car at Washington, N. J„ yesterday.
A freight agent opened it. Out pop
ped a tousled, exhausted looking
man who demanded:
“Where’s the nearest restaurant.
Lead me to it.”
Once there, he ate and ate and
ate, while his guide looked on. Fi
nally the man from the car finished
and paid his check.
“Been on a hunger strike?” queried
the freight agent.
“Not me—l ain’t MacSwiney,” said
the stranger. “My name is C. J.
Holland and I live in Bloomsburg,
Pa. I went into that freight car
on business three days ago, sat
down for a while and fell asleep.
That was in my home town. Where
am I now?”
Holland was surprised when told,
but said it didn’t matter. He had
to go to Elizabeth, N. J., anyhow,
he said. He paid his' check and
departed, apparently none the worse
for his experience. But. of course a
three-day fast in these times is noth

treatment was started an improve

relieved and the sores started to
heal. In a few months the patient

INTERNATIONAL ,
EXPOSITION IS
SUGGESTED HERE
A world exposition for Atlanta is
being suggested. The idea originat
ed with Councilman Robert A. Gor
don, who Wednesday declared that
the time is approaching when an
other such exposition should be held,
and that there is no place more suit
able for it than Atlanta.
Th first gun for the carrying for
ward of the movement to. bring to
Atlanta a great international expo
sition will be fired on the floor of
the council chamber Thursday aft
ernoon, when Councilman Gordon
will introduce a resolution asking
for the appointment of a committee
of five, to meet with similar com
mittees from every civic organiza
tion, and representatives of the At
lanta newspapers, to consider the
feasibility of launching a movement
for a world fair in 1925, or some
other date in the future.
“I have talked this over with sev
eral prominent people,” said Mr. Gor
don, “and every time I mention it,
there is an expression of hearty
approval. The time is getting ripe
for just such a venture, and if such
a fair is held it should certainly b-?
held in the south. Northern ana
western cities have been honored
with the world fairs —Chicago, St.
Louis and San Francisco. Now the
south is coming into its own as the
greatest agricultural country in the
world. Every one of the fairs al
ready held have been wonderfully
successful —have brought interna
tional attention upon the city so hon
ored, and we in Atlanta need just
some such stimulus.
“The eyes of the world have never
been focused on any one southern
city, and the south needs advertls-
south is the most resourceful
country in the world, but has never
had the opportunity of showing the
rest of the world just what her re
sources are, as other sections have,
according to Mr. Gordon, and such
a movement should begin, preferably
in the form of the staging of a gi
gantic world exposition.
