W>ll tiffined and authoritative ru
mor? of a finul-clan? row inai,de the

< 'ommissioner binder Commissioner

in June
Some time ago Commissioner Con
nor and Assistant Commissioner
Brown are said to have had an un
derstanding, the alleged setting aside
of which Is now the cause of the dis
turbance within the department.
Brown Is understood to have prom
ised Connor his assistance in the rnat
ter of the recent election of a man
ager at the Agricultural Experiment
Station In Griffin, in return for Con
nor's assistance in landing the As
sistant Commiss^nerahip under Price
for Brown.
When the election of a manager

ever, Connor was not elected, the
plum going to Professor DeLoach, of
Athene.
Since that election. Brown's friends

in his indignation and surprise
The Assistant ('ommissioner will

time the disagreement between Con
nor and Brown as to which, if ei
ther, shall have the assistant's place
is extremely interesting to political
observers throughout the State.

But Miss Elizabeth Abigail Harden, |
of Newark, N. J., and a freshman at-
Yassar. is just as proud of her record
as McDonald is of his. and she said
to-day that she will shortly do even
better than 38 feet and 3-4 inches.
In the shot-put McDonald’s mark
for the 24-pound shot is 39 feet and
3 3-4 inches.
No Yassar girl will ever reach
Fat's record, however, for they throw
a seven-pound shot at the girl’s col
lege.
Miss Harden’s triumph came in the
annual field meet at Yassar last week,
and she was easily the star of the
day. Besides the shot-put even.
Miss Harden won the basket ball

SO feet 13 1-8 indites and the baseball
throwing with 205 feet 7 inches. In
both the latter events she broke rec

who heretofore had been held the
champion all-around woman athlete.
Like Miss Milholland, the Newark
girl is an ardent worker for votes
for women, and the only blight to her
triumphs of Saturday was the fact
that the meet kept her from march

who are fighting for the ballot.

“The Way, The Truth
and The Life”
Mansions in Heaven,
Factories on Earth,
And Certain Houses
The night of His betrayal, Jesus said:
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe
in God, believe also in me.
“In my Father’s house are many mansions;
if it were not so, I would have told you. I go
to prepare a place for you.”
You believe, and yet are troubled.
His cross and love have made you dissatis
fied with self and with what you see and hear.
Visions of a heavenly home for you can not
soothe you, so long as yonder hovels pour
streams of children into Mammon’s maw.
“They should be at play,” you say.
Instead, factories and mills are marring
their hearts and lives to make dividends for
men.
Not this did Jesus mean, when He said:
“Suffer the little children to come unto
Me.”
And you would not—could not still the pity
born of His spirit surging in your heart.
Rightly, you deny that woman’s virtue de
pends on money.
But many families receiving less than a liv
ing wage must live within cheerless walls.
And this, you know—
When their girl is lost, fathers and mothers
are not consoled by the thought that, had their
wage been greater they could have saved her
fiem the colorless, gloomy home which made
her the more easily beli eve the luring lies of
an easier way to live.
“Better had she died,” you cry.
True! But you will not defend the hovel
and the wage.
You recall:
“The day-spring from on high hath visit'd
us,
“To give light to them that sit in darkness
and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet
in the way of peace.” ■
And so, when some misguided man says:
“Segregate a few women for the common
good.”
You answer:
“Who shall choose the victims?
“Since when did God give man the right to
assign some to mansions in the skies and send
others to lodgings in hell?”
You justly say:
“Have done with the lie that men being
lower than beasts makes necessary the ruin
of some women!”
Even should a creature, like the fabled Min
otaur of Crete, more monster than man, ap
pear, you will not talk of sacrificing girls for
him.
Instead, you will lock up the brute.
Segregate him in a cell; that would be well.
The day has past for the making and
selling of white slaves in our city.
God’s pity for His children is opening your
eyes and ears.
You will help your sister. Never again will
you consent by silence to her destruction.
Heaven help the man who thinks you will.
You are awake.
“You believe in God.”

MEN AND RELIGION FORWARD
