Gorky defends his action In taking to
.v.nerlca a woman not his wife, and
retaliates for the treatment accorded
him when the identity "f his compan
ion was discovered by a denunciation of
the I’nited States.
He insists America is the most im
moral e. mnt ry in the world. He say a
divorces are most abundant there and
society Is corrupt to the core. The
book has been confiscated, the Leipsic
and Moscow censors declaring It
menace to public morals.

FALL SUIT WEATHER
Mercury Drops Nine De
grees Between Sunday
and Monday.
At 5:30 o’clock Monday morning the
thermometer ran down to 511-2 dO'
grees—the lowest September tempera
ture since 1903.
Forecaster Marbury points out, how.
ever, that this temperature Is not ex
traordinary, ns for tho fourteen year*
of the twenty-nine which are on record,
the tempornturo haa reached ns low as
50. As It happens nil these Instances
are earlier than 1903.
Some people might not believe It, but
Jhe temperature Monday morning wai
a full 9 degrees lower than that of Sun,
day morning, which wae 601-2 de
grees. The lowest temperature prior

BAPTIST LAYMEN
DISCUSS MISSIONS
The largest assemblage of Daptlst
laymen which ever met In Atlanta
gathered Sunday afternoon at the First
Baptist church, It being the occasion of
the first general meeting of the Atlanta
Baptist Laymen’s League. Sixteen
Baptist churches were represented nnd
the enthusiasm and Interest was un;
bounded.
Judge Allen D. Freeman, of Newnan,
Gn., was the leading speaker, and made
a stirring and soulful address on the
subject, "Why I Believe In Missions,''
Judge Freeman la one of the leading
Baptist laymen of the state, always
honored and prominent In denomina
tional meetings. He said that he be
lieved In missions because he was
man. and that being a man he felt an
Interest In tho welfare of all men every
where. He said that the greatest hin
drance to the missionary enterprise
was a mistaken conception of lire on
the part of Christian men who think
the great aim of life le to get gold, to
gather together a fortune, a low grow
ellng conception.
Dr. John B. White made a ringing
speech on the layman's duty and op
portunity. He urged that men ought
to take hold of this greatest of all en
terprises with all of the determination,
enorgy nnd Judgment of business men
engaged In a stupendous business prop
osition.
Governor Northen made a short
speech on the practical phases of tho
layman’s movement. No man in the
South ha* been more prominently Iden
tified with the new movement than
Governor Northen.
President F. J. Cooledgo presided
over the meeting*

MANSION GIVEN
A NEW VERANDA
Workmen began Monday morning
luoj; u| ooiuod Usuis am Xu.ua use)
of the governor's mansion, and a wide,
handsome veranda will replace It.
For some time Governor Smith has
had under consideration the Idea of
nddlng a large porch to the mansion,
and has had an architect at work on
plans. Not until the past week, how
ever, did he definitely decide to have
this work done.
An opinion has been prevalent for a
year or more that the present mansion
was falling Into decay, and that It could
hardly be repaired In such a way as to
put It Into good ehape. However, Gov
ernor Smith has had competent archi
tects to look the building over care
fully, and It Is said that for about 26,000
the mansion can be put In first-class
condition.
The walls are solid and about as good
as ever, and with a thorough over
hauling Georgia will have a very good
home for its chief executive. It Is not
Improbable that some recommendation
along this line will be made to the next
general assembly.
No finer location for the home of the
governor could ha Cmad Is tba city. It
Is near the business heart of Atlanta,
on one of the most prominent residence
streets, and Is on a handsome lot.
