H ENRY BELL, manager of
the Elkin Drug Com
pany, who won seeond prize in
the Rexall advertising contest.
President, Thousand Miles Away,
Will Flash Signal to National
Conservation Exposition.
MONDAY IS DEDICATION DAY
Managers Fulfill Promises to Have
Exhibits Ready as Scheduled.
Opens Free of Debt.
KNOXVILLE, Au?. 30.—Promptly
at 10 o’clock Monday morning in
Washington President Wilson will
flash a wireless telegraph message to
Knoxville. The message will be picked
up by the wireless station in the
grounds of the National Conservation
Exposition in this city.
The receipt of the message from the
President of the United States to T.
A. Wright, president of the exposi
tion company, will be the signal for
the formal opening of this expose
tion, the first in the history of the
world devoted to the cause of con
servation and designed to teach oy
concrete example the necessity of
conserving all material resources if
the country is to grow and prosper.
Manner of Opening Uniquo.
Even as the National Conservation
Exposition is unique in history, so »•*
the manner of opening it unique. No
exposition ever before hus been
opened by a wireless message sent
by the President. Ben W. Hooper,
Governor of Tennessee, and his staff
will be present on the opening day.
The exercises will be Impressive.
There will be speeches by Governor
Hooper, Mayor Heiskell of Knoxville
and President Wright of the exposi
tion.
The new buildings on the grounds
will be dedicated; there will be an
automobile parade, the formal open
ing of “Joy Street,” as the midway
will be known; ttr. forks, band con
certs and a general good time. The
official program starts the fun going
at 8 o’clock In the morning, ami It
will continue without a break until
late at night. Two promises made by
“the directors months ago will be kept.
These were:
The exposition would open on time
and be complete down to the last de
tail.
The exposition would open free of
debt.
Buildings All Are Ready.
Opening day will see the exposition
grounds looking mure beautiful and
more attractive than ever before.
Eleven great exposition builaings, all
snowy white, are filled with exhibits
of all kinds. Government, State, mu
nicipal and private. Flower beds dot
the landscape. Flags are flying. The
lakes are alive with motor boats. The
grounds present a gala appearance.
But it is in carrying out the idea
of the exposition itself—the idea upon
which it was founded—and in teach
ing the lessons of conservation that
this exposition, projected by the South
and brought into being by men of
the South, stands out as different
from any other exposition. From
start to finish, from one building to
another, the main idea of teaching
conservation lessons never has been
lost sight of for a moment.
The big mines and minerals build
ing is an example. Here the displays
have been so arraanged as to em
phasize the fact that in the South
nearly every mineral is found, and
also to emphasize the fact that all of
these ores have a commercial value.
A model coal mine dug Into a hill
forms a feature of this exhibit.
The exposition will run until No

THE RECORD
By special order of the Secretary of War an offi
cer of the United States Army is to he detailed for
service at Riverside Military Academy.
The approval for this detail follows speedily
the recommendation of Major B. F. Hardaway, Sev
enteenth Infantry, stationed at Fort McPherson,
who made the inspection by speeial order of the W ar
Department early in July.
This detail carries with it the complete equip
ment of modern rifles, dress and service accouter
ments, haversacks, canteens and mess equipment as
used by the United States Army.
Also artillery and cavalry equipment for dis
mounted service.
The uniforms of the Riverside cadets are identi
cal with those of the West Point cadets, and are fit
ted to the figure of each cadet by military tailors at
Riverside Military Academy, In this respect, River
side stands alone among the Southern preparatory
schools.
THE RECOMMENDATION
In July of this year a request was made upon the War De
partment for an army officer to be detailed for service with the
Riverside cadets.
Copies of the current catalogue and a complete description
of the campus, location, surroundings, physical equipment and
faculty were furnished.
This so impressed the War Department that notwithstanding
the annual inspection of academies and schools applying for such
recognition is made only in April, a SPECIAL INSPECTION was
ordered immediately, and Major Hardaway was detailed for this
service.
He was so impressed with the location of Riverside, two miles
out of Gainesville—connected by trolley—in the foothills of the
Blue Ridge Mountains, on the banks of the Chattahoochee River,
with Lake Warner on its 2,000-acre campus, that he wrote in
strong praise of its magnificent natural advantages and wonder
ful possibilities.
He was greatly impressed with the opportunities afforded for
indoor gallery practice, long range sharpshooting adjacent to the
school, the maneuvering grounds, bridge building, pontoon work,
swimming, boating and other arts of modern warfare, all on or at
the campus.
The physical equipment, with its well lighted, perfectly ven
tilated and modernlv equipped barracks, mess hall, class rooms
and gymnasium, so enthused him that his comments on these fea
tures in his report caused the War Department to take immediate
action and announce the approval and detail.
THE REASON
Riverside possesses all the requisites of an ideal
military school. In addition to the superior advan
tages named, Riverside has:
1. An Accomplished Faculty—An instructor of
successful experience for every twelve boys. No
cadet’s room more than three doors from teacher.
2. Wholesome Atmosphere—Two miles out in
the hills, with ideal quietude for study, yet enjoy
ing the cultured influences of the refined and in
tellectual city of Gainesville.
3. Superior Athletics—Only best coaches and
trainers employed. Every bo.v given opportunity
to participate. Three and four teams in each sport,
coached by members of faculty.
4. Individual Instruction—All the courses of
fered by any preparatory school and taught thor
oughly.
5. Inspection Invited—The most complete
boys’school in the South. Parents and prospective
patrons urged to visit academy.
