8 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.” T U Ra B J nj ®|| I JI & i wi ■ | pend No Monsy \ /'Just send the Coupon below I Hl send the Glasses // at once i // 'Vliillllllullaf ■ S' w ... -t™. v,.,„-. ....... llUllliHiHllll will ena ble you to read the stnallesi lllllllllltiiillllL /'Hi'lllHllyr print, thread the finest needle, see f:i or near.

The Seven Steps of Seven Loves Should Be Taught in All Schools, Says Teacher With Modern Ideas /-/ / I / XJSOMANTIC / * /W \ / LOVE PATRIOT I FM \ ZwS) YjMr it XB \ domfctic U O LOVE of humanity" LOVE, jH Wf/ fe'fS A 7 \ n/ \ -Felp 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 July 31, the showing in stocks of American mills, north and south, of American lint cotton, July 31, 1920 (per census), 1,209,000 bales.

WA SHINGTCN. —Miss Charlotte Freeman Clark, daughter of Watson Freeman Clark, will represent the Distiict of Columbia at the Princess’ ball to be held at Cotton Palace, Waco, Texas, October 30.

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 ing with one of Russia’s great indus 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 ly. The boy’s parents, Jacob and Fan nie Blazer, have been separated about 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 school. 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.

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.

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.

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.
