spicious as any ever attending a simi
lar commencement exercise at that or
other girls’ institution of learning

of the week will be -a "Confession

mates by Miss Allie Candler, vice
president of the seniors, at her home
in Druid Hills. It is said that on this
occasion all the girls who are serious

School's Largest Clast.
Agnes Scott College graduates the
largest (lass this year in the history

noticeable because of the fact that
the scholastic standard has been
raised and the school put in class A

girls’ college* in the United States
have this ranking, and only two of
these—Agnes Scott and Randolph-
Macon, at Lynchburg. Va.—are in the
South.

Scott College is that of Bachelor of
,»Arts, and the following young women
will receive it this year: Misses Laura

‘Ohio Aided Wilson
Only to Beat Harmon’
CINCINNATI, May 22. The Cin
cinnati Times-Star, owned and edited
by ex-President Taft's brother,
Charles P. Taft, editorially says, un
der the caption, “Federal Patronage
in Ohio:' ”
“There is no doubt that the bet
ter elements of thi Democratic party
in Ohio supported former Governor
Harmon for the Presidential nomina
tion. Professional lobbyists had no
use for the man who assisted in driv
ing them from the State house at
Columbus. These men supported
Woodrow Wilson, not because of any
love for him. but because he was the
most convenient opponent of Har
mon. They know of no more grace
ful compensation than the slices of
pie that must soon he handed out.”

; Dr, E. C. Thrash, Who Watched
I Friedmann Work, Warns Atlan
tans Against His Treatment
Dr. E. C. Thrash, tuberculosis spe
cialist of Atlanta who went to New
York and watched demonstrations of
Dr. Friedrick F. Friedmann's reputed
cure. Thursday made public a signed
statement branding I)r. Friedmann a
charlatan and a faker. He said that
Dr. Friedmann was making direct
proposals to administer his treatment
to hopeless cases for enormous sums,
which was nothing short of a swindle.
Dr. Thrash gave out his statement,
he explained, because of numerous re
quests for advice from persons in and
around Atlanta who were considering
taking the Friedmann treatment.
Why He Warns Public.
A woman whose son is in tne last
stage of tuberculosis of the lungs and
bowels came to his office, he said, and
explained that Dr. Friedmann hai
wired her that he would send a mm
to Atlanta to administer the trea*-
ment for $2,500. Dr. Thrash said the
treatment would be worthless in such
a case.
He said:
“The American public is now hav
ing perpetrated upon it one of the
worst frauds of the age. and no means
should he spared to protect it against
this scheme.”
Reviewing his obse^Htions of the
demonstrations and the lack of an>
positive conclusions on the part of trie
Government commission as to tne
value of the treatment, he concluded
as follows:
“Knows Treatment Useless.”
"The reason of my statement in the
outset that a fraud is being perpe
trated is not because I can say with
positive assurance that the remedy is
worthless, but because he makes a
straight proposition to give the treat
ment to a hopeless case without even
having 8 i een the patient. Without any
knowledge as to whether it would be
unwise to give the remedy, he makes
a proposition to give this patient one
treatment which should he adminis
tered at $25 to $100 and charge that
patient $2,500 for the service—a serv
ice which, if he is a man of any intel
ligence, he knows Is worthless, and if
he has no intelligence, he does not de
serve to be recognized."

E. Otis Smith, Who Expected to!
Broil Here, to Adopt Gate
Cdy if Wife Is Willing, ]
If his wife will let him, E. Otis
Smith will spend every winter in At
lanta in the future.
Mr. Smith’s home is in Sitka. Alas
ka. and he is here to attend the
Northern Assembly of the Presbyte
rian Church.
He said Thursday that he came
down here in the spirit of a martyr.
He expected to boil, blister and fry in
the terrible heat of the Southland. He
expected to go back to his wife a
mere wraith—and w hen one considers
Mr. Smith’s substantial type of archi
tecture, the great transformation
there would be is apparent. He ex
pected to bear His martyrdpm in si
lence, only hoping that the end would
not come before he was able to get
back to the cool breezes of Alaska.
Likes Climate and City.
“But.” said he, “your climate is not
so bad after all. I'm delighted with
your climate and with your people.
"My wife came with me as far as
Chicago. ‘You can go on down there
to Atlanta and blister,’ she said, ‘but
I'm going to stay here.' That's where
I’ve got. the joke on her, for the
weather in Chicago has been just
about as hot as it has been here. And
when it's hot in Chicago it's HOT.
They don't have the cooling night
breezes very often that you have here.
The people just lie and swelter, and
in the day time they drop here and
there about the city from heat pros
trations.
Sitka and Atlanta Maligned.
"Atlanta and Sitka have been much
maligned. People represent Sitka as
a place where the mercury is always
about 40 degrees below zero, and
those who don't know anything about
Atlanta say that the heat is unbear
able down here. T just want to hear
anyone making Other of these state
ments in my presence.
"As a matter of fact, we have very
little zeYo weather in Sitka, and you
might not believe it if 1 told you that
we had to go out of the city for part
of our summer's supply of ice last
year.
"I'm going to come down here every
winter in the future that is. if my
wife looks favorably on the plan. Sue
casts the deciding vote on every ques
tion in our family. If l can jus gei
her down here oner, I know it will
be in the affirm 11ive.”
AT ELLIS ISLAND
NEW YORK, May 22.—Surrounded
by more than 600 poverty-stricken
and poorly clad immigrants. Carlos
Dominguez and a beautiful, stylishly
dreseed French girl who eloped with
him from Paris were taken to Ellis
Island to-day for investigation by a
special board of inquiry.
The couple had $50,000 in gold with
them and begged to be allowed to
charter a special boat, but this re
quest was refused and they were
taken on the immigrant yacht Pallas
to the island. It is expected that
Dominguez, who Is an attache of the
Mexican Legation in Paris, will be al
lowed to continue to Mexico City,
while the girl will be sent back to
Frame on the Kaiser Wilhelm II.

to the United States authorities to
detain her daughter. Tlie authorities
refused to gi\M the girl's name, but
said she came from a very rich and
old aristocratic French family fn
Paris.
Old Greene-Gay nor

LYNCHBURG, VA.. May 22.—The
long-drawn-out litigation which grew
out of the Federal Government's tight

York, through counsel, filed a bill of

RESINOL CURED
Too Terrible to Describe. Tor
tured by It Since Childhood.
Washington. D. <’.. Feb. 12, 1913.
"Since early childhood 1 have suf
fered untold misery with that ter
rible torture eczema, on the backs
of my hands and fingers. I have
spent hundreds of dollars on treat
ments and consultations and
bought every known remedy, but
could not be cured. My hands
would crack open, ofttimes show
ing the ligaments, and the skin
would stick to the inside of my
gloves.
"The itching was too terrible to
describe and sleep was possible
>nly when in an exhausted condi
tion. This winter 1 had given up
ill hope of ever firuling a cure,
w hen I heard of Resinol and pur
chased some. The results, were
perfectly marvelous. 1 used three
jars of Resinol Ointment, with
Rebinol Soap, and my hands are
perfectly cured. I can not find
words strong enough to praise
Resinol and what it has done for
me. I wish everyone needing Ve*
lief from that stubborn and tor
turing affliction would give Res
inol a trial. 1 shall be pleased to
answer any inquiries.” (Signed)
Mrs. Harry O. Jarboe, 621 E St..
