2 250 GOOD ROODS EVANGELISTS IN CONVENTION Many Suggestions for the Im provement of Dixie's High ways Offered. The men who made motoring worth while in th. South cam. to Atlanta to day—2so of them—to talk about mac adam, oiled surfaces and crushed rock 1 at the Southern Appalachian Good ; Roads convention which opened at the ; Piedmont hotel at 9:30 o’clock. They came from the mountain highways of Virginia and the shell roads of the gulf coast, and each one of them had an idea of his own for making roads smoother, stronger and more lasting. The accumulated road wisdom of these convention delegates would fill a li brary. Dr. Joseph Hyde Pratt, of North Car olina, state geologist and president of the association, was one of the first members on the field, and he hi ought with him a trunk full of plate and maps on road work which he proceeded to hang in the convention hall. Others arrived with photographs designed to make auto owners take on an extra supply of gas and start for the state where the pictured rogds await the hum of the motor. But Atlantans who looked them over and talked to the visitors say none of the exhibits lias anything on Fulton county's highways and they propose to prove it on a two hour spin tomorrow morning, when the visitors will be shown what convict built highways are.

The forthcoming visit of William Jen nings Bryan to President-elect Wilson is expected to have a marked influence upon the next national administration in tlie United States. That Mr. Bryan is coming to discuss possible future government policies Is unquestioned, and It will not come as a surprise If Mr. Bryan himself accepts the portfolio of secretary of state and also helps select the other members of the cabinet. There is a possibility that the presi dent-elect may cut short his visit here ami go'nwav to avoid the social whirl into which he is being drawn against his will. Although it was the expressed wish of Governor Wilson "that he be let alone" during his stay here so that he might get a real rest, invitations are pouring In upon him and it now seems improbable for the governor to escape a great state dinner which the governor of Bermuda, Lieutenant General Sir Gem ge M. Bullock, is said to be plan ning in hie honor. CORDELE GETS FIRST MONEY ON BOND ISSUE CORDELE, GA., Nov. 20.

ANDREWS STAR OF FLIING MEET “Mlle. .Boucicault,” Wearing Bath Robe and Red Hose, Fails to Thrill Crowd. Charlie Wiggins will hold a second “aviation meet” at the Speedway this afternoon, according to the announce ment made at the end of the flying late yesterday. Mrs. Rodgers will fly with him in the one-man machine, Eugene Savage will jump from an aeroplane in a parachute, a-;d there will be automo bile races—all this according to ad vance literature, which is not guaran teed. "Mademoiselle Camille Boueicault” will not fly. She “died” yesterday aft ernoon. Attired in a bath robe and red stockings, not to speak of the helmet which descended from the times of the ancient Romans, she appeared in al! her manly splendor on the Speedway, and a big roar of derision went up. The muchly advertised, dainty little French bird-woman was none other than the robust Charlie Wiggins, clad in very ill-fitting female toggery. "She" flew, much to the amusement of the grand stand, but “her” exciting stunts elicited little applause from the ungallant men .standing about. Contrary to announcement, the fly ing did not begin until after 3 o’clock, though it was scheduled an hour ear lier. Wiggins, in his Wright biplane in which Rodgers flew across the conti nent, at last rose from the track and soared about for some fifteen minutes, finally landing in a field. Thornwell Andrews followed in his Curtiss ma chine and did some daring stunts, prov ing to begthe real feature of the after noon. Everything from wild dips to tremendous banks was shown in his repertoire, and at the end he drew long applause from the spectators. Wiggins Near Accident. The only thrill of the afternoon came when Wiggins almost flew into the grandstand as he was rising for a flight. Every one held their breath, and Wiggins himself plainly was startled, but by swift manipulation of the levers he escaped and. went hurtling off to ward Atlanta. This time his flight was more interesting. An automobile race was announced, and two cars started around the track, one being given a start of 100 yards. It held its lead for two laps, but dis appeared on the third. The last car won in four minutes and thirty sec onds for four miles. The other eat ap peared some time later. Owing to the lack of excitement, it finally was decided that "Mlle. Bouci cault" should fly and just at ’dusk “she” went up. That ended the performance.
