STRIKE TIES UP
200 FOOD SHIPS
Non-Union Force at Work Un
der British Guards Inade
quate to Give Relief.
LONDON, May 27. —The first attempt
to break the transport strike was made
here today when a guard of 400 police
was placed about the Victoria and Al
bert docks, the biggest in London, to
protect strikebreakers at work there
from interference. Although the work
ing force of freight handlers was far
below its usual quota, the transport
companies gave notice that traffic
would be kept moving undei- police
guards.
Police guards were furnished to
draymen and trackers. The attempt to
break the strike by wholesale use of
police angered the strikers, and mobs
gathered along the harbor front early
in the day, threatening violence.
Following resolutions by the trans
port workers yesterday at their mon
ster mass meeting in Trafalgar square,
the men remained firm tn their deter
mination not to go back to work so
long as the companies employed non
union labor.
Food Rotting in Ships,
The prospect of a famine situation
was helped but little by the use of the
strikebreakers, as the number of men
employed was inadequate to handle the
great amount of frieght which had ac
cumulated since the strike went on.
There is a great amount of perishable
foodstuff rotting in shipholds and in
warehouses. More than 200 ships are
now tied up.
President Sidney Buxton, of the
Board of Trade; Premier Asquith and
Chancellor Lloyd George conferred
upon the situation today and discussed
the various features of the istuation.
Their real fear is that a sympathetic
strike will be called.
Helps a Judge in Bad Fix.
Justice Eli Cherry, of Gillis Mills,
Tenn., was plainly worried. A bad sore
on his leg had baffled several doctors
and long resisted all remedies. "I
thought It was a cancer," he wrote. "At
last I used Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, and
was completely cured." Cures burns,
boils, ulcers, cuts, bruises and piles. 25

Gideons Ask Aid of
City to Make Their
Convention a Success
Very obviously Atlanta is assuming
a considerable responsibility along
with her fame as the great convention
town of the South. Now it is the Gid
eons who are giving the city another
chance to show’ how’ generously it en
tertains visitors, and the Gideons are
out in a plea to the wholesale men of
Atlanta to aid them via the joyful con
tribution in taking care of the three
hundred delegates from the United
States and Canada who will come here
July 26, 27 and 28 to attend the na
tional convention of the Christian Com
mercial Men's association, "the local
Gideons point out that Atlanta can af
ford to extend herself a little in their
behalf, because they had to work like
sixty to bring the convention here over
the claims of Chicago and Toronto.
The delegates will be commercial
travelers in all lines of merchandise.
The expenses of the convention w’ill be
about SSOO, and there are only about
thirty active Gideons in town to bear
this expense. Hence the request for
outside aid,

RIVERSIDE CADETS PLAN MILITARY CAMP AT
NORFOLK, VA„ ON GOVERNMENT RESERVATION
Recreation and Instruction in Store for Boys of Riverside
Summer School and Camp
Two Weeks Will Be Spent on Wil
loughby Bay
Special Trips to Washington and Other
Points of Interest
A real military camp on government
ground is one of the pleasures that
the summer students at Riverside Mil
itary Academy at Gainesville, Ga., are
looking forward to with the utmost
eagerness this summer. The cadets
w ill go to Norfolk, Va„ for two weeks,
and will encamp on the United States
government reservation on Willoughby
Bay, near the Chesapeake. The site
chosen is only a sh&rt distance from
the Ocean View hotel, and within easy
reach of Washington city. In addition
to the advantages offered by the gov
ernment reservation on the bay, the
boys will enjoy several short trips
gbout the neighborhood. One will be
to Washington, where they will see
many things that will be of educational
value, as well as of keen personal in
terest to the boys.
The two weeks camp trip will not
add to the usual expenses of the sum
mer school session, and for that rea
son a large number will avail them
selves of the opportunity to camp at
Norfolk.
The Riverside boys are healthy,
happy-hearted specimens of boyhood,
and their zest in outdoor sports and in
the military observances of the school
is that of the normal boy. The camp
trip is only one of many features
which reach the natural interests of
the boys: and it Is because of the in
sight which the superintendent and the
directors have into the natures and
hearts of the boys that Riverside is be
coming such a popular place, not only
with the parents, who And satisfaction
in the fine training given their sons, but
with the boys. too.
The Boys’ Enthusiasm,
The latter appreciate the appeal
which is made to their latent manhood
and the recognition of their best quali
ties helps them to develop the stronger
traits of their nature.
Riverside is essentially a boys' school,
not merely a place of instruction where
teachers give commands and expound
books. It Is a school in which each
student feels a personal Interest, a per
sonal responsibility, as It were, for the
success of his institution.
This accounts for the almost uni
formly good behavior of the boys when
they are not under the surveillance of
their teachers.
Riverside’s Plan.
The plan of Riverside has been to
have as few rules as possible in order to
maintain discipline and to put the ques
tion of behavior up to the boys as a
matter of principle. Such rules as the
school has formulated are of a distinct
type, and are worthy of the considera
tion of parents who have sons to edu
cate.
For instance, the main rules which
are to be enforced are given to the boys
in the form of a pledge to sign. The
question of honor thus becomes a part
,of the observance of the rules, and it Is
easy enough to cultivate a strong prin
ciple of honor if the right methods are
employed.
Each cadet is expected to sign the
following pledge:
“I pledge my honor as a gentleman
that so long as I am a cadet in the
Riverside summer school and camp I
will observe the following rules:
"I will not be absent from the post
without the proper permission.
"I will not drink nor have in my pos
session an intoxicant of any kind.
"I will not engage in a game' of
chance, not have In my possession dice
or cards
“I will not have any concealed weap
ons in my possession.”
These are the main rules which the
boys must follow for physical safety
and moral uprightness, and the other
rules are few and simple. Every cadet
is expected to be attentive to duty,
punctual In attendance, and thorough in
his work. In order to secure permis
sion to leave town, the cadets must
secure this permission in writing from
parents or guardians.

Men of City, Tired
Os Rushy Hunger for
God, Says Evangelist
“The men of Atlanta, like the men of
New York city, are tired out and worn
out with the mad rush and striving that
fills their daily life. They are hungry for
God. They want a real religion and the
Christ that transforms men.”
Such was the assertion of Bob Jones,
at the First Methodist Episcopal church,
last night at the second of the day’s
services that opened the present two
weeks revival.
He made a marked impression on his
hearers. At the close of each service
numbers were converted ami refused to
leave the building until they had shaken
hands with the peracher. A feature of
the meetings yesterday was the large
number of men present, among them
many of Atlanta’s best known men of af
fairs. They followed every utterance of
he young speaker, and rose to their fee*
when the invitation to attend every meet
ing during the week was extended.
These revival meetings will be continued
at the church every morning at 10:30 and
8 o’clock at night.
Last night the young evangelist paid
his respects to the class of idle society
women who forsake babies for lap dogs.
The evils of gossip also were treated
at some length.
COLLEGE HAS FIRE ON
EVE OF COMMENCEMENT
DOUGLASVILLE, GA.. May 27.
While prepara.tions were being made
for the annual commencement ever
cises, fire was discovered in the main
building of Douglasville college. Be
fore the alarm was given and the vol
unteer fire department of the town ar
rived the flames had made considerable
headway. After a hard fight the audi
torium was saved with a slight loss.
Burning waste paper In a stove is be
lieved to have caused the fire.
- t
profane or indecent language are ab
solutely forbidden. Hazing or any un
fair treatment of comrades also for
bidden.
Methods of Enforcement.
These rules are good in themselves,
and the methods of enforcement are
better.
Those in charge of the boys at Riv
erside are men who know the boys'
nature, who have at heart the develop
ment of the boy into the finest possible
manhood: their hearts are In the work,
as well as their minds.
When you add to this atmosphere of
sympathy and encouragement, the op
portunities for all the sports which boys
love, it becomes at once apparent that
Riverside Is the ideal place for the boy
to spend his summer. He secures men
tal and moral training, and is developed
physically. Riverside was planned to
meet the needs of the South for an In
stitution of this kind.
The Purpose of Riverside,
The purpose of the school was to
furnish an attractive and profitable
summer outing for boys; a combina
tion of work and play that would give
wholesome relaxation and pleasure and
at the same time provide an effective
substitute for the haphazard vacation
for boys. Each succeeding year this
problem has been set forth as the pur
pose of the school, and tn its solution
Riverside Military Academy has lent its
equipment and resources and given the
best thought and study of an expe
rienced corps of teachers
The naval course, with Its whole
some open-air exercise, its picturesque
ness and touch of romance, makes a
stronger appeal to a boy's Imagination
and Interest than anything that could be
devised for an organized summer out
ing.
The Riverside Summer School and
Camp also solves effectively what has
long been a problem to thoughtful par
ents. It gives a chance for the bov
backward in his studies to make them
up without sacrificing his vacation, and
an opportunity for the boy who is reg
ular in his work to keep his mind fit by
a little mental exercise each day. and
It gives both a summer really worth
while—genuinely refreshing- and a lib
eral gain in muscle, tan and health
Wholesome Pleasures and Discipline.
At the same time the school offers
the advantage of proper associates, a
healthy moral atmosphere, personal su
pervision of experienced teach- rs, loca
tion free from the temptations and bad
influences of the city, town or large
watering place. Wholesome pleasures
are provided in abundance, and many
cadets affirm that their summer school
days at Riverside are the happiest days
they have ever spent.
Location and Environment.
The location of Riverside Is an ideal
one. Forming a crescent on the north
ern horizon, at a distance varying from
12 to 40 miles, are the Blue Ridge
mountains. In the foreground, winding
in and out among the hills, is Lake
Warner, where the boys hold their
aquatic sports. Pure air and perfect
drainage are two essentials to health
that are absolutely insured by location
on the crest of a high elevation.
The campus inclosure of 25 acres
fronts SOO feet along the line of the
electric railway, which affords rapid
transit to the city of Gainesville, two
miles distant. Tn addition to this large
campus, the students have the use of a
large forest park of nearly two hun
dred acres, near the - enter of which the
academy is located.
Gainesville Easily Reached.
Gainesville is on the main line of the
Southern railway from Washington to
Atlanta 53 miles north of Atlanta
Through trains from all points in the
south pass through Gainesville In
most instances students may reach Riv
erside without changing cars. Stu
dents should try to reach Gainesville

Influences Broadening.
Cadets go to Riverside each summer
in an increasing number from the
Southern states, parents in the South
finding that they can not do better for
their sons than to send them Into a
more bracing climate for the summer.
The broadening influences of this inter
mingling of boys from widely separated
localities is in itself not the least among
the advantages offered by the school.
Parents who are going abroad or who
contemplate other plans necessitating
separation from their children during
the summer may place them at .River
side with the comfortable assurance
that they will be as well cared for as
if they were In their own homes.
The Buildings.
The main building is attractive in
design and with Its modern interior ar
rangement, finish and equipment is es
pecially adapted to the uses of a school
and dormitory combined. All looms
large and well ventilated and lighted
by electricity. The danger of fire is
reduced to a minimum, though abun-
